Tending Rock Point - Orchard Pruning

Tending Rock Point is a series of workshops and workdays where we practice collaborative stewardship and reciprocity with the land at Rock Point. By integrating agricultural activities and ecological restoration throughout the year, we take a holistic view of land stewardship and find our place as humans in the ecology of Rock Point. In each session, we will spend part of our time learning about a topic and the rest of the time working on a project together.

In this session we will learn about pruning fruit trees and other perennial food plants, and spend time practicing these skills by tending to our community orchard. Joining us this time will be friend of Rock Point, founder of Juneberry landscapes, and local expert on edible landscaping, Jacob Holzberg-Pill.

We will meet in the main trail parking lot at 5 Rock Point Road at 10am and walk to the orchard together from there.

Please bring:

• Proper footwear and warm clothing for the day
• Water and snacks that you may need
• Pruning tools if you have any (shears or saws)
