These techniques will be demonstrated on apple and pear trees growing at a local Master Gardener’s home at 1203 N. Marion Ave Washington, IA, on Tuesday, March 14. Patrick O’Malley, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach commercial horticulturist, will discuss why and how the different types of fruit trees are pruned and trained to maximize annual fruit production. The workshop will be held at 5:00 pm at 1203 N. Marion Ave, Washington. This is a free workshop. Call to preregister at the Washington Extension Office at 319-653-4811.
