On Saturday 25th of January I’ll be hosting an orchard planting workshop on the farm in Midleton and all are welcome to join. We’ll be lucky enough to be in the capable hands of Chris Troy, a living, breathing apple encyclopaedia who really has the gift when it comes to teaching everything orchards.We’ll be planting 41 interesting varieties of 41 trees! 35 apples and 6 pears. This will be not only a bit of fun but a really good learning experience if you have or are thinking of planting fruit trees and a chance to meet like minded people. We’ll cover ground prep, planting method, aftercare and pruning. Because we're certified organic, we’ll explain how best to grow fruit trees without any synthetic chemicals and talk about aftercare. There's no cost for the event, but it will be a hands-on day where people will get stuck in with some planting.
There’ll be light refreshments provided and we expect to run from 11am - 3pm. Just bring along some energy, enthusiasm and maybe some warm clothes, you know given it’s still January.
If there a lot of interest we’ll have to limit numbers so please sign up via the link below or just send me a private message. Details to follow in an email closer to the time
