Why do you have to trim the bushes now?

Heather,
If the trees are not cut back...they will not produce much. The pruning will force new growth that in turn in 2 years will produce berries. The trees are pruned in the winter when they are dormant. All of their energy is stored in the roots. After cutting you end up with a bigger root to branch rato...Therefore it will produce more branches.
