Pruning Basics & Winter Orchard Care

Tuesday 22nd January

Moor Nook Park, Sale, Greater Manchester


Moor Nook Park Winter Pruning

Moor Nook Park won ‘Best Orchard Care’ at our prestigious awards ceremony at the end of 2018. After their valiant efforts to keep their trees alive in the summer heatwave of 2018. We saw them bring their community together and really rally the troops with a fantastic watering strategy. Now it’s time to give their orchard of 2-3 years old trees their important first ‘formative’ pruning and see what other maintenance tasks need doing, such as cage removal and mulching. If you’re new to pruning fruit trees this is the training session for you!

TUESDAY 22nd JANUARY – 10:30-2:30pm

You’ll have The Orchard Project’s Dan Hasler on hand to assist, guide and advise. Under his supervision and guidance you’ll quickly be assessing trees, making cuts and pruning fruit trees within the park along with the Moor Nook Park team and Orchard Leaders from across Greater Manchester.

Hot drinks & light refreshments will be provided. Please bring some lunch with you.
