Orin Martin will teach a series of four seasonal workshops for small orchard care throughout the year, with a focus on apples and pears. Our intent is to engage a cohort of small-scale farmers who can attend all four sessions to learn as a community. Spanish interpretation is available for these free in-person workshops.

Session Dates:

• Saturday, August 24, 2024 - Session 1 (Summer Care Package)
• Saturday, September 28, 2024 - Session 2 (Harvest, Taste test, and Prep for Next Year)
• Saturday, January 18, 2025 - Session 3 (Winter Conditions and Care)
• Saturday, May 17, 2025 - Session 4 (Spring Seasonal Update and Care)

Time: 9:30am - 12pm (same for all 4 sessions)
