Join Mangaroa Farms for our Summer Fruit Tree Pruning Workshop. This is a hands-on, practical fruit tree workshop designed to give you the knowledge and skills to grow thriving, productive trees—
This two-hour outdoor workshop is split into two engaging parts, offering both essential information and up-close, in-the-field learning.
We will head into an established orchard for a hands-on pruning session. You'll learn how to manage existing trees, focusing on summer pruning techniques, branch training and seasonal maintenance, and how to work with a variety of species. A great opportunity to gain confidence with real tools and real trees.
What to Bring: Secateurs (if you have them) Gloves A drink bottle
Important Notes: Dress appropriately for the outdoors – this workshop is fully held outside. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe, water-resistant footwear, and weather-appropriate layers.
In case of heavy rain, the workshop will be postponed to a backup date. We'll notify you directly if the schedule changes.
Please meet at the Mangaroa Farm Shop. Overflow parking is available, from there we will meet and caravan to the pruning site.
Tickets: $35 – Spaces are limited, so book early!
Get your hands in the soil, sharpen your secateurs, and walk away with practical skills to help your trees thrive year after year. We look forward to seeing you soon.
