SUMMARY:Air Pruned Raised Beds for Tree Seedling Production – Allegany County
DESCRIPTION:Cornell Cooperative Extension Allegany County in conjunction with the Cornell Small Farms Program will be offering a hands-on workshop on Air Pruned Raised Beds (APRBs). The workshop\, hosted at Wild Geese Farm in Rushford\, NY on Friday\, May 8\, 2026\, from 10:00 AM until Noon\, will be held rain or shine. \nAPRBs offer an innovative\, scalable approach to tree seedling propagation. By naturally pruning roots through air exposure\, this system produces seedlings with stronger root architecture\, higher transplant success\, and the ability to grow large volumes of bare-root stock in a small footprint—no land ownership required. APRBs are adaptable to both urban and rural contexts and support high-density seedling production for a wide range of species. \nParticipants will learn how to construct an APRB and explore key topics including bed management\, growing media\, pest management\, species selection\, seed collection\, preservation\, germination\, and potential markets. Requirements for selling nursery stock in NYS will also be addressed. This workshop is ideal for producers seeking to diversify into a new\, efficient tree seedling production system. \nThe session will be led by Connor Youngerman\, Agroforestry lead with the Cornell Small Farms Program. There is no charge for the workshop\, however pre-registration is required\, as participation is capped at 25. \nTo register online: https://reg.cce.cornell.edu/Air_Pruned_Raised_Beds_202 \nIf you have any questions about the workshop\, please contact Lynn Bliven at 585-268-7644 ext. 18.

SUMMARY:Air Pruned Raised Beds For Tree Seedling Production – Wyoming County
DESCRIPTION:Air Pruned Raised Beds provide a scalable\, land‑free way to grow tree seedlings. By using air exposure to naturally prune roots\, they produce stronger root systems\, improve transplant success\, and support high‑density bare‑root production in small spaces. Adaptable to both urban and rural settings\, APRBs work for many species and enable efficient\, large‑volume propagation. \nParticipants will learn: \n\nHow to construct an Air Pruned Raised Bed (APRB)\nBest practices for bed management\, growing media\, and pest management\nSpecies selection\, seed collection\, preservation\, and germination techniques\nOverview of potential markets for APRB‑grown seedlings\nRequirements for selling nursery stock in New York State and how this system can help producers diversify into efficient tree seedling production\n\nThe session will be led by Connor Youngerman\, Agroforestry lead with the Cornell Small Farms Program. Attendance is free. \nRegistration is required. Participation is capped at 2. \nAccommodations for persons with disabilities may be requested by calling 585-786-2251 no later than 10 days before the event to ensure sufficient time to make arrangements. Requests received after this date will be met when possible.
