Organic Orchard & Berry Management for Whole Farm Health (Seats Filled)

Meet Linda Hoffman, orchardist at Old Frog Pond Farm, and Laura Davis, Organic Certification Assistance Coordinator and Soil Health Advisor with NOFA/Mass, for a hands-on exploration of organic management practices for orchards and small-scale fruit production. 

Join us to discuss the orchard’s perennial intercropping system and its impact on soil health and pest management: we’ll learn about Old Frog Pond’s foliar spraying methods and approach to tree nutrition. Tour the orchard and berry patch, and see Old Frog Pond’s pruning system for managing fire blight and other pathogens. We’ll also have a hands-on demonstration of whip-and-tongue grafting, and examples of topworked trees. 

This is a unique opportunity to explore one of the few Certified Organic orchards in the state of Massachusetts and get a first-hand look at the how-tos of organic orchard management. 

Workshop is filled.
