Fall is a great time to conduct annual maintenance on trees and shrubs, and to add new ones to your garden. When cared for properly, trees and shrubs will flourish for many years, adding beauty to the landscape, providing shade, creating habitat, and sometimes even supplying us with fruit.
Come to this FREE workshop to hear expert advice on planting, pruning, watering and feeding fruit and shade trees, as well as shrubs.
