Focusing on Hildene's historic apple trees, gardener Craig Borden will lead a free workshop on two forms of pruning: corrective pruning for ornamentals and pruning to increase fruit production of apple-bearing trees. Drawing upon his 40 years of experience as a tree care professional, Craig will demonstrate the proper use of the various tools he uses and will be happy to answer any questions. Participants will leave with the knowledge and confidence to prune their own apple trees.
While registration is not required for this free workshop, all guests must check in at the Welcome Center. Please dress warmly.
