Designed for all experience levels, the workshop will focus on all aspects of fruit tree production, including planting, pruning, maintenance, harvesting and grafting. Instruction will be followed by a hands-on demonstration of proper pruning and grafting.
WVSU Extension Service is partnering with West Virginia University Extension Service’s Jackson County office to host the workshop.
