Caring for fruit Posted By: Ben Butler March 11, 2009 @ 4:30 am Today's Local News Tweet Share Email If you’ve considered or have planted black berries, raspberries, apples, pears, peaches or other fruits, you’ve probably wondered if you should be spraying, pruning, or doing any of a number of tricks that solve fruit growing problems. Gary Bickmeier, Keokuk County Extension Education Director says for answers to these and other questions, you should attend the Fruit Tree & Brambles Care and Selection Clinic Thursday, March 12th. The program has been moved to a new location due to wet grounds, it will now be held at the Expo in Sigourney at 5:30 pm. Tickets are available from any Keokuk County Master Gardener or by calling the Extension Office at 800-515-2680 or 641-622-2680.
