  • Wednesday, July 23, 2025, 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Pruning is an art, skill, and practice. Join Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Garden Bob Sherwood for a discussion of why we prune woody plants and how it is done. Using plants found in the Demonstration Garden, Bob will demonstrate how to make a proper cut, the use of various pruning tools, how to decide what to remove, and much more. Be prepared to walk around the garden.
