<em></em><br />
<em>"This course was fun and interesting. Ken's style of instructing and his use of props was very well put together. Well done!"</em><br />
<em></em><br />

<strong>How to Prune Landscape Trees</strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b></b> </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Landowners often neglect the annual pruning of trees. Without proper pruning, however, trees will not develop proper shade or form. Properly trained trees will stay healthy and live significantly longer.<br />
When to prune depends on several factors, notably the species being grown and the reason you are pruning. Ken Fosty, Manitoba Certified Arborist received direct training from Dr. Alex Shigo at an intensive week-long workshop at Olds College.<br />
Ken will transfer his knowledge to the participants and will illustrate proper tools and proper pruning cuts. With the aid of hands-on props, fundamentally important terms such as branch bark ridge, branch collar, included bark, flush cuts, callus, woundwood, compartmentalization, topping, etc. will be explained during this multi-media presentation.<br />
All aspects of proper pruning of ornamental trees will be discussed. Learn when to prune, why to prune, what to prune and how to prune. <br />
Participants will leave this seminar with the knowledge and ability to prune their own landscape trees.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Proper pruning of apple trees is important to develop good, strong form, maximize fruit production and reduce insect/disease problems.<br />
Using multi-media presentations, Ken Fosty, Manitoba Certified Arborist will illustrate how to train young trees, maintain tree health and restrict growth for older apple trees. Thinning out and heading back are discussed as well as proper tools and proper pruning cuts.<br />
This presentation has two parts. The first part illustrates pruning and rejuvenating older, neglected apple trees. The second part focuses on training and pruning young apple trees. Without proper pruning, apple trees will not develop good form. Properly trained apple trees will yield high quality fruit much earlier and live significantly longer.<br />
Participants will leave this seminar with the knowledge and ability to prune their own apple trees.</div>

<strong>Woodlot Services – Private Land Forest Assessment for Timber Value</strong></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Landowners interested in having timber harvested from their property and supplementing their income can contact Ken Fosty for an on-site woodlot walk’n talk.<br />
Ken has 30 years of direct woodlot experience and will ‘timber cruise’ the property with the landowner. With the aid of photo imagery, he will provide an estimate of timber volume and stumpage value.<br />
Ken has up-to-date knowledge of current timber prices and numerous contacts with Forestry Harvesting Contractors across Manitoba. Ken provides a written “Contract for Sale of Standing Timber” to the landowner and acts as a liason with the harvesting contractor and landowner.<br />
The Contract for Sale of Standing Timber is a valuable tool for both parties as it details the harvesting process including down-payment, access, timing, duration, insurance liability, etc to ensure satisfaction for both parties.<br />
Ken’s recommendations also include recreational benefits, wildlife enhancement, planting trees and berry producing shrubs, seedling sources, traditional and non-timber forest products.</div>

<b></b><br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Planting fast-growing hybrid poplar for future firewood, pulpwood or saw logs may be of interest to landowners interested in converting agricultural land into permanent tree cover.<br />
Ken Fosty was directly involved in coordinating and implementing a massive tree planting program that saw 1,000 acres of hybrid poplar plantations planted on private land across Manitoba.<br />
This pictorial audio-visual presentation shows all aspects of hybrid poplar planting including seedling selection, site selection and preparation, planting and weed control. <br />
Proper planning and scheduling of maintenance intervals are discussed. What works and what doesn’t.</div>
