Our good friend, Joseph Martinez, of Rockbridge Cider Vinegar, will teach us how to care for a fruit orchard! It is challenging to grow apple trees organically in our humid climate. Joseph learned that by growing apple trees in Virginia for over 40 years. In this workshop he’ll share his successes, failures, and ongoing challenges. We’ll tour his orchards and learn the ways that trees develop their own immune systems by taking advantage of a biologically diverse homestead. Joseph will also talk about insect pest control without spraying insecticides, and how to provide soil and tree nutrition. We’ll also taste some handcrafted apple cider Vinegar.
