Grafting Workshop
Learn to graft pear & apple trees
Sat 7th September 2024, 1pm - 3.30pm at Silverstream South School, 52 Green St, Mosgiel.

Learn to graft fruit trees to create a new tree with the best features of both.
Facilitator, Donal from NZ Treecrops Association - Otago, will show you practice of joining the roots of one tree, the “rootstock”, with a branch from another, the “scion”.
By bringing parts of two trees together, you can create a new tree with the best features of both trees. The rootstock determines how tall the tree grows, how it branches, what soil and climate it will grow in, whereas the scion decides what type of fruit the tree will produce. Grafting also takes away some of the genetic uncertainty that comes when growing trees from seed.
The cost of $40 includes the cost of your first tree (rootstock) and graft (scion). Additional trees will cost $20 each.
