Last year’s spring-planted heritage apple orchard on the grounds of Philippi’s Adaland Mansion is the site for this spring’s fruit tree pruning demo and class on Saturday, March 19 at 1 p.m. The picture above shows the orchard after it was planted in the spring of 2021.

Two fruit pruning classes are scheduled in the region, one in Clarksburg on April 2 and one in Philippi on Saturday.

The Harrison County Extension master gardeners will meet on April 2 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a free pruning workshop.

Mira Danilovich, West Virginia University Extension horticulture specialist and master gardener coordinator, will discuss pruning equipment and demonstrate pruning techniques, according to a press release. Pruning fruit trees will be the focus, but Danilovich can answer other pruning questions.

Plan to arrive at Harrison County Recreation Complex by 10:45 a.m. to carpool to the workshop location at Pearl Arnett’s in Clarksburg. In case of poor weather, the workshop may be canceled. To sign up, visit https://tinyurl.com/HCPruning. You can also contact the Harrison County Extension office at 304-624-8650 or email jefriend@mail.wvu.edu.

Adaland Mansion in Philippi is also hosting a similar free workshop, also supported by WVU’s Extension Office, according to a press release. That class will be held on Saturday, March 19 at 1 p.m. 

Attendees are asked to bring their own pruners and to show up at the orchard which is just beyond the barn on the road to the mansion.
