Want to learn how to make your fruit trees healthier and more productive? Portland Fruit Tree Project’s hands-on workshops are fun opportunities to learn basic methods of organic fruit tree care. Workshops are open to anyone, but pre-registration is required.
Cost per class: $25. Scholarships are available.
Tree care workshops (except for the grafting workshop) are free of charge for those who have fruit trees registered with us, though contributions are gladly accepted!
