It’s time for our annual fruit tree pruning workshop! Please consider joining me and the Extension Master Gardeners for this live demonstration. This event will be held at the home orchard of one of our Extension Master Gardeners. There is no cost, but please call or e-mail to register (252-438-8188 or 252-257-3640). This will be an outside event with limited access to facilities, so please plan accordingly. In the event of inclement weather, we will have a pruning seminar at the Warren County Extension Center (158 Rafters Lane).
From Warrenton Rd., head north on Boney Lankford Rd. After the sharp curve, look for a sign or banner on the left. If you get lost, call my cell 252-213-6095.
