Despite the cold and rainy weather, the class assisted Ken Kuhns in moving several brush piles from one of the fruit orchards he tends. The class toured the orchard and learned to identify the different varieties of fruit trees and the warning signs for disease. Ken then instructed the class on proper pruning technique and the appropriate time to prune. After lunch, Ken showed the class the strawberry harvest and how to pick and transplant strawberry plant runners for the next season. For the complete photo set, please click here.
