The workshop includes classroom instruction followed by on-tree pruning participation in a nearby orchard. Instructors will also offer tips to restore a neglected fruit tree.

The workshop fee is $10. Space is limited to 25 participants, and registration is required.

The workshop is from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, March 7, at the WSU Tree Fruit Research and Extension Center.
