Wild Apple Tree Pruning Workshop: Saturday April 9
Time: 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Location: The Rocks Estate, Bethlehem, NH and Joan Hannah's property, Sugar Hill
Pre-registration is requested: Contact Tina at 224-9945 ext 313 Cost: $10 for non-members, $5 for Forest Society members, free for Forest Society Land Stewards.
Releasing and pruning wild apple trees can keep them healthy and result in greater fruit production for use by a variety of wildlife. This basic introduction to releasing and pruning wild apple trees will include both an indoor classroom session and outdoor field practice led by Nigel Manley, director of The Rocks Estate (and a Coverts Cooperator!), and pruning enthusiast Mike Didio. The indoor portion will be held at The Rocks Estate in Bethlehem, NH, from which we will carpool to the field practice site at Joan Hannah's property in Sugar Hill, NH, just 10 minutes away. Spectacular views of Franconia Notch at this location make a perfect backdrop for learning how to prune. Read more at the Forest Society
