The Chatham County Center of North Carolina Cooperative Extension will offer a blueberry pruning demonstration on Saturday February 27 from 10:00 a.m. – noon at Howard’s Farm a few miles west of Pittsboro on Hwy 64. Annual pruning is needed to control bush height and increase yields. Dr. Bill Cline, North Carolina State University Blueberry Specialist, will discuss and demonstrate proper pruning techniques for blueberries.

This demonstration is open to the general public and appropriate for both commercial growers and home gardeners. There is no cost to attend but pre-registration is required. Space is limited so register early.

We had almost 100 people register for this session within 12 hours! It is full. I will be announcing THREE new training opportunities on February 15 so we appreciate your patience.

We will also be offering a fruit tree pruning demonstration on March 12. Click here for details.

For more information contact Debbie Roos at 919-542-8202.

Howard’s Farm: 7393 US 64 West, Pittsboro, NC 27312
The Howards planted their first peach trees in 2011 and later added apples, blueberries, blackberries, and vegetables. They opened Memaw’s Fruit Shack at the orchard in 2014 for direct sales to customers.
