Pawpaw Grafting Workshop

Join pawpaw enthusiast Ted Weeden for an afternoon of learning about pawpaw grafting at POP’s Learning Orchard and Nursery. Ted has been growing pawpaws for over twenty years, experimenting with hand pollination and breeding hybrid varieties. Read all about Ted and his pawpaw project here. 
As part of the workshop, we will practice grafting onto potted and planted pawpaws. Ted will be bringing pawpaw scion wood from the 12 best/favorite cultivars from his collection of pawpaw trees for folks to practice grafting with or take home to graft to your own trees at a later date.
If you have a potted pawpaw seedling, bring it along to graft a named delicious variety onto it. We will also have some seedling pawpaws available for participants to graft and bring home (or to donate to POP to plant in a community orchard).
Raindate: Sunday, May 14th from 10am-12pm.
Pre-registration required!
