Grafting Trees 101
In this class well be doing a bark graft on an established tree and talk about what grafting is and why you would want to graft (add new cultivars, better pollination, add a new branch to a tree, create a baby tree.)
We'll briefly discuss a few common types of grafting (bark, bench, bud) and why you would choose one over the other (type of fruit, using existing tree vs. creating new tree, time of year.) We'll also discuss the tools and supplies used in grafting (box cutter, electrical tape, gutter sealant, bud grafting knife, labels) and show the labeled scion wood that we will be using. Followed by hands-on demonstration and working in pairs to practice grafting with teacher's close supervision.
