Planting and Caring for Young
Fruit Trees Saturday, November 20, 11 am-1 pm
Phinney Neighborhood Center
6532 Phinney Ave N. Seattle, WA
Fall is planting time! Plant your tree before the ground gets hard and get a head start on your fruit. By using good planting,
watering, and pruning techniques, and learning to recognize problems, you can give young trees the best chance to become healthy and productive. The
class covers site selection, fruit tree selection (how large? What type?), where to buy fruit trees, how to plant them and how to care for young trees. Jana Dilley works on the Green Seattle Initiative with the
City of Seattle Office of
Sustainability and Environment. She has a master’s degree in Forestry and in Public Affairs and has organized community tree-planting events in Seattle and California.
Registration is $15 for City Fruit and PNA members, and $20 for non-members. Register at
