Calling all tree shakers (especially the tall ones)!
Join us at Wetherby Edible Forest where three glorious pear trees are bursting with fruit.
We’ll stretch the tarps, shake the trees, and catch a bounty of fresh pears together. It’s fun, it’s fruity, and it’s a whole vibe.
THINGS TO BRING
* Tarps.
* Bags for your bounty.
* Friends, family, that one tall cousin.
* Optional: ladders and fruit pickers.
This event is part of our Nature Escapes series—fun, drop-in experiences held year-round in the public gardens we manage.
