Tool Sharpening Workshop

Sharp pruning tools are easier to use and better for your plants.

Winter is a good time to get them into condition and ready for spring. Join Tyler Gardener Matthew Tornabe to learn proper techniques for using files and sharpening stones. There will be plenty of time for hands-on practice; Matt will provide guidance as needed.

Bring hand pruners, loppers, hedge shears, shovels, or spades and a pair of lightweight gardening gloves.

$10 Fee for members   $15 Fee for non-members

Pre-registration required.
