The New England Vegetable and Berry Growers’ Association and New England Cooperative Extension are excited to present a Blueberry Pruning Clinic for blueberry growers. This hands-on clinic will offer both the basics for newer growers, and a refresher and refining of skills for seasoned growers.
This clinic takes a practical look at how blueberry plants grow and what that means for pruning and yield to improve production. John Galvan of UMass Extension and Jeremy Delisle of UNH Extension will break down blueberry plant structure, cane age, and bud types in a way that’s easy to recognize in the field and talk through pruning strategies that help improve berry size, plant health, and long-term productivity. Growers will walk away with a better understanding of how to manage their bushes, so they stay healthy, productive, and easier to maintain year after year.
