Scouting for Pests & Diseases in the Orchard

As the growing season kicks off, it’s time to sharpen your skills in identifying and managing orchard pests and diseases before they become serious problems. This beginner-friendly workshop is designed for community orchardists, home growers, and anyone tending fruit trees who wants to gain confidence in monitoring tree health.

We’ll cover:

  • How to recognize early signs of common pests and diseases

By the end of this session, you’ll be ready to head into your orchard with a trained eye, able to spot potential issues before they escalate. Whether you’re managing a community orchard with just a few trees or many more than that, this workshop will give you the tools to grow healthier, more resilient fruit trees.
