Introduction to Arboriculture

The maintenance of an orchard, or of fruit trees, requires some knowledge in order to promote the quality of the fruit, to promote good health of the tree and thus reduce or even eliminate the use of phytosanitary products. The initiation day allows both the young arboriculturist to discover the basics of arboriculture and the initiates to reinforce their knowledge. This training is divided into two parts: in the morning a theoretical part and in the afternoon practical workshops: pruning, planting and grafting! The day is provided by instructors trained by the Departmental Federation: Daniel Ehrhard, Jean-Marin Ehrhard, Robert Lentz, Franck Peressini and Eric Schultz.
