Join Anna Fialkoff, horticulturist at Connecticut College Arboretum, for a workshop on ecological pruning during the dormant season. With leaves down and the bones of the garden revealed, winter is a great time to evaluate and prune woody plants for their structure, form, health, and vigor. Plus, hibernating creatures and frozen ground make ideal timing for tromping around garden beds with minimal disturbance.During this two-hour workshop at Fort Williams Park, Anna will demonstrate best pruning techniques and provide an overview of basic pruning principles, while emphasizing how to enhance wildlife habitat. Participants will get hands-on experience with selecting tools, making proper cuts, and assessing trees and shrubs for pruning goals.
Prior to joining Conn College, Anna was our Ecological Programs Manager, and we're delighted she's back for a day of learning together!
