Here is a series of photos from 2019 of a portion of the Duffy family trimming and pruning the apple trees on the Duffy land! 🌳
Pruning is done yearly to maintain the size and form once apple trees have filled in and are bearing fruit. 🍎
Pruning reduces disease by letting in more light and air. 🍏
Pruning mature trees is done in the fall when the tree is dormant. 🌳
Removing weak twigs, shortening stems that have become too droopy, and limiting overcrowding all contribute to the health of the trees. 🍎
