Curran Apple Orchard 2024 Winter Events!
Learn a new skill and help take care of a unique apple orchard park in University Place at FREE pruning parties sponsored by CORE (Curran Orchard Resource Enthusiasts)! Volunteers are needed to help prune and haul branches to dumpsters…no experience needed! Free instruction available!
Pruning Parties are scheduled for the following Saturdays from 10 am – 1pm
February 3 and 17
March 2 and 16
Trained volunteers and Master Gardeners will be on hand at official Pruning Party dates to provide guidance. Wear old clothes and bring loppers, hand pruners and saws if available. Some tools available to borrow at the barn.
On remaining Saturdays in February and March, CORE volunteers will be available in the barn to coordinate volunteers and offer tree information.
Help is also needed hauling branches to the dumpsters. Great for community service hours! (Students – please bring parent permission forms which are available at Curranappleorchard.com).
CORE meets the first Tuesday of each month at 6pm on the second floor of the University Place City Hall, 3609 Market Place W. Free parking is available underneath the library.
