Pruning Trees & Shrubs (Online)


Adult Classes and Activities / Gain Skills -
Winter 2026

Trees and shrubs are an investment that can improve the beauty of your home landscape, but require pruning and regular maintenance for a long life. Understanding tree growth habits, we will show why, how and when you can do corrective pruning as well as techniques to care for and prune shade trees, evergreens and fruit trees. Shrubs can often get too large, crowd sidewalks and make your yard look unkempt. Learn techniques for pruning and rejuvenating shrubs to help show off the beauty of your home. If you have not received your class link and handouts by the day before, please call 651-425-6605.
