There is a fantastic Table Grape Field Seminar coming up this Saturday Sept. 13. Full details can be obtained from the Marion County Ext. website: http://extension.oregonstate.edu/marion The hosts, Ray and Sandra Ethell of Broadacres Nursery will be including some very advanced pruning and training techniques in the seminar and demonstrating a revolutionary trellising system.

You should plan to attend, if for no other reason to see and taste so many wonderful grape varieties (over 40), that I, for one; had no idea would grow so well this far north, - the rootstocks they are grafted to - the incredible yield on such healthy plants.

Lon Rombough will also be on to lend his vast expertise - if you need a variety identified bring along a cluster.

Short notice so act quickly.
