The Golden Rule Marketplace in Belington is hosting a grafting workshop on Saturday, March 25.
The class will be taught by David Proudfoot, of the Talbott Community. David is a member of the Backyard Fruit Growers Association and has been teaching grafting for many years. He and his wife Cindy grow beautiful gardens and orchards on their farm and have Pick Your Own blueberries in the summer.
At the Grafting Class on March 25th, you will learn about how and why grafting is done, you will pick a variety of heritage apples or pears, and through demonstration and instruction, you will graft your own tree to take home with you to plant.
