Topworking\u00a0is the type of grafting that is done when you have an established tree and you\u2019d like it to produce a different variety of fruit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This is an incredible way to expand the type of fruit you grow and improve the quality of your orchard or backyard fruit trees over time. Learn about how to topwork scions (sticks of 1-year old wood of your new variety) onto your existing trees. We\u2019ll talk about the tools and supplies you\u2019ll need and delve into the most effective ways to top work fruit trees.<\/p>\n<p>This workshop will be held at Coastal Rivers&#8217; Denny Education Center in Damariscotta, Maine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tickettailor.com\/events\/testorg8\/1149518\"><strong>REGISTER HERE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is an outdoor workshop in a place with long grass, so participants are encouraged to wear boots and long pants. There are indoor facilities and bathrooms available, and the orchard is a short walk from the parking lot.
