Fruit Tree Grafting Workshop


Fruit Tree Grafting Workshop 
(so popular, we're holding this workshop twice!)
Saturday, April 28 from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm at the ISLAND Property
2550 Orchard Hill Rd, Bellaire
Sunday, April 29 from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm at the Ware Farm
9094 Alkire Road, Bear Lake

Registration now open!
Most fruit trees and many ornamental plants are created through the art of grafting, but very few gardeners are familiar with the techniques that make this possible. Join Brenin Wertz-Roth from Giving Tree Farm and Nursery for an incredible hands-on opportunity to learn skills that open a whole new world for gardeners and home orchardists. $65/individual, $110/couple. Couples get one knife and six root-stock. Snacks are included. Class-size is limited. Registration required by Apr 25th. For more information call (231) 480-4515 or email mary@artmeetsearth.org.

Many thanks to our sponsors and partners:
