Since 2018, the Buffalo Trace Counties have hosted a Apple Tree Grafting/Pruning Workshop annually for folks to attend to learn more about selecting apple varieties, grafting techniques, pest control, and pruning to maintain good plant vigor.  The hands on learning has provided over 130 folks with the opportunity to learn more about fruit tree care and production over the past 3 years.  

One of the attendee's that attended the 2018 session stated that their apple trees had improved after attending the program and learning a efficient spraying program to control pests and disease.  They also shared that prior to the program they were not pruning the recommended way and now that they have learned property techniques their apple trees are flourishing.  The attendee shared that she was looking for 2020 to be the best apple season they have had to date until the late freeze got their blossoms.
