The Art of Citrus Care & Pruning

Join us for our second annual series of workshops on the art of backyard citrus orcharding (growing fruit for non-commercial means). From July- October, our on-staff fruit tree specialist will lead this recurring workshop in the citrus grove at Arlington Garden, a water-wise habitat garden that fosters a diverse ecosystem by employing regenerative gardening techniques. This series is the only one of its kind in Los Angeles! Each workshop will include a lecture on seasonal care of citrus trees, including tree assessment, biology and physiology of citrus. Lecture will be followed by 1.5 hours of pruning where participants will gain hands-on experience on how to prune citrus using the Arlington Garden citrus grove as our classroom. Join us to learn how to take care of your backyard citrus and help the Arlington Garden citrus trees become more fruitful than ever! Each workshop in this series covers the same material, so you need only attend one to get the full benefits! Attendance is $25.00 per person for one two-hour workshop.
