Sonoma Garden Park Pruning Workshop

This workshop provides a great experience for new and seasoned gardeners who want to get their hands working while they learn. We have apple, peach, fig and other trees that will be looked at and worked with in this always-popular workshop.

Workshop will be given by Paul Vossen, a UC Farm Advisor since 1981. He conducts a fruit tree, berry, and vegetable research and education program for commercial growers in Sonoma County, including production, pruning and pest management courses. He also had a small-scale market-garden farm in Windsor for 10 years where he grew and sold, peaches, pears, apples, table grapes, plums, cherries, apricots, olives, cane berries, blueberries, and strawberries. This workshop will cover all aspects of home garden fruit tree care and Paul will demonstrate how to prune apples, pears, peaches/nectarines, feijoa, plums, olives, walnuts, and table grapes.
