Union County Extension
Master Gardener Volunteers

Oh, baby it’s still cold outside!! But many fruiting plants and ornamentals should be pruned this time of year. Come learn which tools to use, how to make the proper cut, and the trick to proper timing (think flower bud development). We will be inside where it is warm to learn the basics.  We are offering this class virtually and in person, so make sure you register for the appropriate location. You will also be able to register for a Hands-on Pruning Workshop scheduled for February 11 to get some practical experience.

​

Keith O’Herrin, Union County Urban Forester will lead this presentation. Keith is an ISA Certified Arborist with International Society of Arborists Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (ISA TRAQ).  He provides outreach and educational programming throughout Union County and works in youth programming including school enrichment programs such as Arbor Day.
