Espalier Workshop

Espaliering is a convenient method of pruning trees to grow flat against walls or fences anywhere that space is an issue. It is ideal for small urban properties – fresh fruit can be had even from pint-sized sections!
This is a supervised, hands-on workshop held in the Kitchen Garden at Hamilton Gardens
