Our community learning workshops are fun, affordable (we have sliding scale available), in a beautiful orchard setting.
Many folks end up making new, local, like-minded friends through participating in our various workshops at Welland 😊

This young POC man attended his first workshop at Welland & enjoyed it. He was telling me that he's planning to grow his small apple tree in a large pot, on his apartment balcony 🙂 We helped him select a dwarf apple variety to graft for his small space needs.
