Permaculture Matters - Pruning Workshop

Join us for a hands-on winter pruning workshop designed for backyard growers and budding permaculturists who want to deepen their understanding of how, why and when to prune fruit trees and woody perennials.

This practical, skill-building session will be led by an experienced local facilitator and will cover:

The principles of pruning and their role in plant health and productivity

Dispelling the myths around winter pruning and discovering the best time of year for pruning your trees

Identifying different pruning cuts and tools required

How to shape trees for sunlight, airflow and easy harvesting

Pruning for long-term structure versus seasonal growth

Tips for maintaining common fruit trees found in local Blue Mountains gardens

The workshop will take place in a North Katoomba backyard, providing a real-life example of pruning across different species and stages of growth. Participants will have the chance to observe, ask questions and get hands-on under guidance.

We invite you to bring a packed lunch to enjoy.

This workshop is suitable for beginners and seasoned gardeners alike. Spaces are limited.
