Zoom
Learn how to save and reproduce fruit for the future. This live-virtual workshop hosted by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Broome County in partnership with FarmOps, and led by Roger Ort, of Ort Family Farms, will include a live-virtual presentation focused on grafting techniques, and a hands-on demonstration on how to graft using a bud and whip and tongue techniques. This live-virtual workshop is for veterans specifically. Attendees should already have a home orchard, or be looking to purchase, and a few years of fruit tree production experience.
The funding supporting this workshop comes from the FarmOps program at Cornell University and targets active service members & military veterans only who reside in NY or NJ. Registration is limited to 15 and will fill up quickly. Questions and follow-up by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Broome County will help us determine final eligibility to attend and participate in this workshop.
