Orchard course: Regenerative orchard design and care, two-day course - May 24th and 25th 2025
We'll be looking in-depth at how fruit trees behave, what they need and how they behave in their environment. Armed with that background, we'll look at good orchard design and what the orchard-care calendar looks like.
We'll be based at Orchard Mawr in Haverfordwest and we'll be assessing and designing a plan for regenerative care of that orchard as part of the course.
