[Bermagui Community] 7 places left in The Crossings Grafting Workshop tomorrow

[Dean Turner]

 Workshop commences at 11am and concludes at 3pm this Sunday at The
Crossing Land Education Trust near Bermagui. BYO lunch. Learn how to graft
and about the value of heritage and heirloom fruit trees.
Receive a free rootstock and a grafted scion of your choice with your $30
booking as well as a cuppa. Limit of 20 for Covid Safe gathering at our
Community Hall.
Bring grafting knives and grafting tape if you have them (we have some
spares).
There will be rootstocks and scion to purchase and graft on the day and
some spare grafting knives. If you have never grafted before, then this is
a chance to learn. You can also bring named varieties of scion and
rootstocks to share with others – keep them cool in plastic bags in your
fridge once you cut them off your favourite varieties – about as long as
your hand with about 6 or so buds on them.
Apples, Pears, Plums, and Cherries will be the focus of the day. Rootstocks
$10. Scion $5
It’s possible to take home scion to graft onto your existing trees.
The Heritage Fruit Growers data base available at the workshop will allow
you to match your scion vigour, so that more than one variety may be
grafted onto a single rootstock (or existing tree) without unbalancing the
tree.
All funds raised go to The Crossing so that we can ‘grow youth leadership
for sustainable design’.
