Make Your Own Fruit Salad Tree - Fruit Tree Grafting Workshop
Event description
Are you running out of space in your garden but would like to grow more varieties?
Grafting is a great solution!
Join Joe and Andrew from the Rare Fruit Society and Joe's Connected Garden for a fabulous hands-on grafting workshop.
Learn the science between grafting fruit trees and which varieties graft best on to which.
If you'd like to take home your own fruit salad tree, simply discuss your options with Joe and Andrew before the workshop and pick up the correct variety of "base" tree from the nursery to graft on to. There is a ticket option to add your scions to your ticket so you only have to pay for your tree on the day and you're all sorted.
We have a number of trees to graft for the shop, so you can still get hands-on even if you don't have space for more trees at home.
