Gardening - Backyard Fruits


Adult / Lawn & Garden -
Winter 2025 - Jan-Apr

Would you like to grow strawberries, blueberries or other fruit in your own backyard? Learn how easy it is to select fruit varieties appropriate for Minnesota; to plant, prune and maintain the plants for health and maximum yield and to control insects and disease to ensure a fruitful crop. We will discuss strawberries, raspberries and blueberries as well as cherries, plums and honeyberries.
