Fruit Tree pruning lesson with Jenni at The Old Green Community Garden

Fruit Tree pruning lesson with Jenni at The Old Green Community Garden, Tree Guardian volunteers, January 2024

Growing Hollingdean Volunteers free activity in January 2024

Jenni from the Permaculture Trust Partnership shared her knowledge how to prune the fruit trees with a small group of Tree Guardians. It was a very cold and dry Saturday morning on the 13th January. Lots of laughter and banter was had to help remember to all the techniques.

Polly supported pruning decisions and discussions around pruning practice as well as ladder safety use. We pruned two pear trees on The Old Green Community Garden, tidied, picked up litter and removed animal poo from the area. Some people say January is a month of no gardening!
