Event description

Pruning is easy and fun when you know how, but understanding why, when and how to prune is important. In this workshop, you’ll skill up in all the basics so you can get started pruning right away. Learn how to improve plant health and maximise fruit and flower production as well as how to choose the right tools for the job and keep them in good condition.

This online workshop will run from 6 pm to 8 pm.

The session will be held via Zoom. Participants will receive login details prior to workshop.
