Basic Principles of Pruning—Tuesday, February 10, at 11:30 a.m.

We hope you will join
the Garden Club of Weaverville
for our February 2026 Meeting

Basic Principles of Pruning

Tuesday, February 10, at 11:30 a.m.

In the Weaverville Town Hall Community Room
[30 South Main Street]

**Please note that we are not meeting at our usual location for this month’s meeting. 

 

Trees and shrubs serve as the backbones of our gardens. And with spring in sight, now is a great time to learn more about why, when, and how to prune these plants.

Join Alison Arnold, Buncombe County Consumer Horticultural Agent, as she talks about, explores, and answers attendees’ questions about basic pruning principles and practices.

At the Buncombe County Cooperative Extension Office, Alison is responsible for all consumer horticulture topics in Buncombe County, including the Buncombe Master Gardener Volunteer program. She also loves talking about plants and working with people. In fact, she worked at the North Carolina Arboretum for 16 years, including during the time period when the gardens, trails, and programs were being developed. She has also worked in several perennial nurseries, and she previously ran her own gardening business.

Again, please note that our meeting will take place in the Weaverville Town Hall Community Room this month.

All are welcome to attend. The garden club will not provide refreshments this month, but feel free to bring your own lunch, snack, or beverages to enjoy immediately following the program, if you’d like. The business meeting will begin soon thereafter.


Club of Weaverville is a co-ed, non-profit organization open to everyone. For more information on what we do, becoming a member, or supporting the club, visit our website.
