Join the Oak Spring Garden Foundation’s Arboriculture, Conservation, and Landscapes (ACL) team for an interactive workshop on pruning woody plants. The session will begin with an indoor presentation covering the fundamentals of pruning, including best practices and techniques for maintaining plant health.

Participants will then gain hands-on experience using and maintaining pruning tools, working with containerized plants to apply their new skills. The workshop will take place indoors and, weather permitting, outdoors under cover at our Pavilion. Please dress in layers and bring gloves and appropriate footwear for comfort and safety.

This event will take place on the Rokeby Farm portion of OSGF. The event will not include a tour of the formal garden, or main residence.
