Fruit Tree Pruning Workshop

August is a great time to perform summer pruning on plums, or annual pruning on apricots. Citrus can be pruned virtually year-round in our area, but now is as good a time as any to lighten up the densely-crowded and twiggy interior of a semi-dwarf Meyer lemon tree for better aesthetic value in the landscape as well as its overall health.

After a quick tour around Farm2Market's orchard, we will focus on pruning citrus (Meyer lemon) and stone fruit (plum and apricot).
