TREE PRUNING NAWTON

We want to make it easier for our communities to have access to free, locally grown fruit. You can help us, by joining a Harvest Helpers Pruning Day.

Come along to the workshop to learn how to care for fruit trees; when and how to prune and then practice your technique. At this time of the year, we will be focussing on Plums but what we will learn applies to other trees too.Together, we’ll work on the fruit trees at the Western Community Centre and/or Pukete Neighbourhood House, keeping them healthy for next season.

By keeping trees healthy and productive, we can ensure an abundant supply of free fruit for everyone to enjoy. Taking your newly acquired skills home, we hope you can then share your abundance and excess harvest with our communities. (Details for our “Community abundance collection service” below).
