Fruit Tree Grafting / Wildflower & Ramp 26 PCCVB - 2

Tree Grafting Workshop at the Yew Mountain Center

Learn the timeless skill of tree grafting with our Fruit Tree Grafting Workshop. Practice the whip and tongue technique and create your own grafted fruit trees in this hands-on class.

Guided by knowledgeable instructors, you’ll work with a variety of apple or pear trees and take home five grafted dwarf trees to start or expand your own orchard.

Convenience snack items will be available. Please feel free to bring your own snacks or bring something to share.

Where will you be?

Join us at the Yew Mountain Center, a 500-acre Botanical Sanctuary near Hillsboro, WV. Our mission is to provide programs that explore Appalachian ecology, culture, and the arts while promoting personal and community wellness. We are the home of the West Virginia Forest Farming Initiative and a stop on the Mountain Medicine Trail.

Why participate?

Add this traditional skill of propagating your own fruit trees to your self-sufficiency tool belt and learn by doing. Your participation supports our "We Need Yew" fundraising campaign to purchase YMC land and provide sustainable community access for generations to come. Thank you!

This is a family-friendly event, and all ages are welcome! Adult supervision is required. Sharp knives will be in use. Please leave your pets at home.

Rooms and campsites are available for an additional cost.
