SUMMARY:Create Your Own Orchard: Make Fruit Trees by Grafting
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wanted to grow fruit trees in your own backyard and harvest home grown fruits or start a small orchard? This class will give you the skills and hands-on experience to learn how to hand make your own fruit trees\, repair damaged trees\, and add on different fruits to existing trees to save space. \nGrafting is the ancient art of how to attach a specific desired cultivar of fruit onto a rootstock to make a customized fruit tree. Students will learn the reasons for grafting\, the skills and materials needed to dormant graft\, bud graft\, and summer graft\, and how to nurture trees to maturity. Basic biology of the tree\, and why this works will also be covered. Resources also will be given that will help you find desired rootstock and scionwood for the specialty tree of your choice. If you have a favorite tree you want to replicate\, like a neighbor’s or grandparent’s apple tree\, contact Dan after you register and he’ll provide instructions for preparing tissue from that tree to graft. \nThis class is about two hours of instruction\, an hour break for lunch\, and then hands-on practice afterwards. Each student will take home two trees that they themselves have made.  \nAll are welcome – WEI classes are open to everyone. \nWe are also offering this class on Saturday\, March 21. \nInstructor Bio: Dan Sheild is the co- owner of Stone Creek Farm\, an orchard that specializes in stone fruits\, including plums\, apricots\, and peaches. With organic practices\, Dan developed a system that would allow sweet and juicy peaches to grow and fruit consistently\, as well as manage his orchard and farm for commercial fruit sales and research. Dan is a former board member for the Organic Fruit Growers Association\, has memberships in Land Stewardship Project\, Minnesota Fruit and Vegetables Growers association\, and NAFEX\, North American fruit explorers. Dan has grafted most of the 1200 trees on his property. \nWEI has an annual scholarship fund to support cost-accessible programming.

SUMMARY:Discovering Resilience- Farm Legal Training Class
DESCRIPTION:Discovering Resilience – Farm Legal Training Class\nDiscovering Resilience empowers farmers with the resources they need to resolve legal vulnerability in land use and leasing\, employment\, agro-tourism and value-added production\, business structures\, insurance\, and liability. \nAre your farmers asking how to write an effective\, comprehensive lease? Are they wondering whether they should form an LLC\, S corporation\, or neither? What about hosting interns or working with volunteers; is that legal? How should a farm manage the risk that guests may get injured when they visit the operation? Farm law affects everyone\, especially our most innovative\, direct-to-consumer farmers. Answers aren’t always easy to come by- but that’s why Discovering Resilience exists. \nThis isn’t your typical boring\, expert-focused legal education. Listen to farmers explain how they manage risk on their farm while legal experts emphasize the law’s specifics. \nIt’s a fun\, interactive workshop that gets farmers talking. Farmers walk away with an individualized to do list that reflects their needs and priorities. Nearly 90% of farmers plan to make changes to their operation- changes that reduce risk and leverage legal opportunity- as a result of this workshop. In today’s difficult farm climate\, we need all the resilience we can get. \nThis class is hosted by Farm Commons in Partnership with Midwest Farmers of Color Collective \nClass will be taught by Rachel Armstrong\, Executive Director of Farm Commons and Farmer Co-Presenters are Valerie Djuissi & Thi Hoang. \nDate: \nThursday\, April 9th 2026 \nLocation: \nThe History Center of Olmsted County \nClassroom: The Sertoma Lecture Hall \n1195 West Circle Drive SW \nRochester\, MN 55902 \nTime: \n9am – 4:30pm \n*Lunch will be provided for in class participants \n*Participants are required to attend the entire class \nClick HERE to register \n

SUMMARY:Create Your Own Orchard: Make Fruit Trees by Grafting
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wanted to grow fruit trees in your own backyard and harvest home grown fruits or start a small orchard? This class will give you the skills and hands-on experience to learn how to hand make your own fruit trees\, repair damaged trees\, and add on different fruits to existing trees to save space. \nGrafting is the ancient art of how to attach a specific desired cultivar of fruit onto a rootstock to make a customized fruit tree. Students will learn the reasons for grafting\, the skills and materials needed to dormant graft\, bud graft\, and summer graft\, and how to nurture trees to maturity. Basic biology of the tree\, and why this works will also be covered. Resources also will be given that will help you find desired rootstock and scionwood for the specialty tree of your choice. If you have a favorite tree you want to replicate\, like a neighbor’s or grandparent’s apple tree\, contact Dan after you register and he’ll provide instructions for preparing tissue from that tree to graft. \nThis class is about two hours of instruction\, an hour break for lunch\, and then hands-on practice afterwards. Each student will take home two trees that they themselves have made.  \nAll are welcome – WEI classes are open to everyone. \nWe are also offering this class on Saturday\, March 21. \nInstructor Bio: Dan Sheild is the co- owner of Stone Creek Farm\, an orchard that specializes in stone fruits\, including plums\, apricots\, and peaches. With organic practices\, Dan developed a system that would allow sweet and juicy peaches to grow and fruit consistently\, as well as manage his orchard and farm for commercial fruit sales and research. Dan is a former board member for the Organic Fruit Growers Association\, has memberships in Land Stewardship Project\, Minnesota Fruit and Vegetables Growers association\, and NAFEX\, North American fruit explorers. Dan has grafted most of the 1200 trees on his property. \nRegister here: Create Your Own Orchard: Make Fruit Trees by Grafting – Women’s Environmental Institute
