Join us for the fourth and final installment of our spring gardening series with Kaʻū farmer Ted Bennett!

This talk will touch on factors to consider in developing an orchard in Hawaiʻi naturally or conventionally: starting rootstock, grafting, protecting with/against weeds, disease, and insects.

There will be plenty of time for questions as well.

This 45 minute program is suitable for ages 8 and up.
