Grafted Scions

Course Description

You will learn how to prune and graft fruit trees. You will also take home from the day 2 trees you have grafted your self.

If you have a favorite apple tree in your garden you want to propagate, you can bring along a branch (scion) for grafting – contact Chris for details. Chris is also looking for scion of named varieties for grafting in his fruit nursery so if you need a tree pruning he is happy to exchange this work for some of the branches !

This course is suitable for anyone who wants to learn about the grafting and pruning of fruit trees. The land at Applewood is steeply sloping in places so you will need to be able to safely walk about the land.

Appreciation from Past participants

There was a very clear progression of ideas and delivery, a very good mix of practical and theory to reinforce learning
