Pruning workshop at Bramley Baths

This course is free thanks to The Wildlife Trusts Green Community Grant and players of People's Postcode Lottery.

Apple and pear trees should be pruned in winter to maintain a healthy shape and size and to ensure they will fruit plentifully for future decades.

Gini from Fruit Works Co-operative will teach you the theory and practice of winter fruit tree pruning, and together we will help to maintain the fruit trees at Bramley Baths. This event is in collaboration with Incredible Edible Bramley.
