Gary's Pruning Class

Our first pruning class was well attended and everyone learned to sharpen their pruners before heading into the orchard.
 
Looking at the baby apple trees for basics on pruning.
We reviewed Apples, Peaches, Raspberries and Blackberry techniques.


Gary demonstrates on the first baby peach.
Then everyone got a chance to make some cuts.

Michael puts in some time on the farm over break.

Took advantage of the warmer weather to pull out some of our older trees.
Good bye Cameo... The new trees will be ready this spring.
Lots of new apple varieties as well as a few Pears.  Yay!
