Grape Pruning Workshop
Are you a grape grower looking to learn how to properly prune your vines? If so, you may be interested in joining ENYCHP's viticulture specialist, Jeremy Schuster, for a series of four-hour workshops focused on grape vine pruning. Each workshop is limited to 12 people, and pre-registration is required. The workshop fee is $40 or $120 with a Felco pruner that you keep. The deadline for ordering a Felco pruner is 2 WEEKS before the workshop date. The registration will remain open until the Monday before the workshop date, but do not select the Felco pruner option if you are less than 2 weeks away from the workshop date, and please bring your own instead. During the workshops, you will learn a variety of pruning techniques and gain valuable knowledge about how to maintain vine balance in commercial vineyards throughout the Hudson Valley. Don't miss out on this opportunity to improve your grape growing skills!
