“Pruning Fruit Trees” will be taught by John Trimarchi, owner of Trimarchi Nurseries in Adams. Trimarchi will discuss tips and proper techniques for pruning trees and shrubs. This hands-on workshop will help guide you to complete almost any pruning project.
Trimarchi has a bachelor'’ degree in landscape Architecture from the College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse, N.Y., and has owned Trimarchi Nurseries since 1994.
On Thursday, Feb. 5, Jennifer Munoz of REACH will present “Local Food Production for Improved Nutrition and Local Food Security.”
