Join us at our family farm for a three-part, hands-on apple tree workshop series led by lead grower and farm owner, Charles Hurd. Whether you already have apple trees or are dreaming of growing your own, this bundle will give you the knowledge, tools, and confidence to succeed—from planting to pruning.
🍎 March 28, 2026 — Healthy Apple Tree Workshop
Do you have an apple tree and wonder how to protect it from disease or damaging insects?
Learn how to properly scout your trees, identify common problems, and take action before damage occurs. Charles will cover prevention and treatment strategies for the most common pests and diseases affecting home apple trees.
🌱 April 18, 2026 — Apple Tree Growing Workshop
Take home the knowledge you need to successfully grow apple trees in your own backyard.
This workshop focuses on expert planting techniques, soil considerations, and care tips to increase your chances of a healthy, productive apple harvest. Enjoy hands-on learning and the opportunity to ask Charles questions specific to your growing conditions.
🍏 May 16, 2026 — Apple Tree Trimming Workshop
Apple trees benefit from proper pruning throughout the year.
In this workshop, you’ll learn seasonal pruning techniques and best practices to encourage growth and increase fruit production. Each participant will receive tools to practice with at the farm—and take home to use on their own trees.
What’s Included:
* A take-home fact sheet with pro tips from Charles Hurd
* Access to Charles’s favorite online resources
* Time to ask questions about your current or future apple trees
* Hands-on learning in a relaxed farm setting
* Drinks and snacks available for purchase (outside food welcome)
*** Family-Friendly Class: Anyone sitting in the barn and participating in the workshop is $69.99 per person. Any additional children or adults who will be playing outside during the workshop are $33.99 per person (play-outside entry must be purchased in advance). Children under 3 are free, but must remain on a lap or in a stroller if attending the workshop.
Do children need a chaperone to play outside during the family-friendly workshop?
We will have a team member at the bounce pillow with learning and coloring sheets. Any children under the age of 14 may be dropped off with this team member and must remain in the bounce area. Any children with a chaperone 14 or older can also play at the kids' corral and on the giant slide.
Can we arrive early and stay past the end time to picnic or enjoy the property?
Participants' time is limited to the 1.5-hour workshop session time. We do recommend you arrive 10-15 minutes early to check in and get comfortable. We will also allow 10-15 minutes after the workshop to shop local at our barn market cart or collect your children from the family-friendly activities. If you would like to stay for additional time, you would have to pay for an additional workshop time slot.
We are not interested in the workshop. Can we just come to the farm to play?
Absolutely, but at least one member of your group must pay the $69.99 workshop price. It would be helpful to our farmers who are planning the workshops if you leave a note in your order to let us know that it is your plan.
