3 January 2015, Page 3 Backyard Fruit Production Classes offered! February 3rd and February 10th 6:00 PM Classes are FREE but please register Many people set out various fruit plants in their home gardens and landscapes in hopes of enjoying the fruits of their fruit growing labor. Some of them are disappointed when all they harvest are shriveled peaches infected with brown rot or blueberries infested with fruit flies. Well Shoot! If you ve had more bad luck than good with backyard fruit, our two night, basic back yard fruit production class may give you the knowledge you need to harvest an apple without too many worms in it. This FREE class is set for Tuesday night Feb. 3 and Feb. 10, 2015 at 6:00 p.m. each evening in the Livestock Building at Lane Agri-Park. Lane Agri-Park is located at 315 John R.
