The first 2 apple trees and 4 plums were planted in April 2023, in the middle of a bare field. Gradually the paddock layout grew around them, creating our little orchard.
Using the old branches to create spiky nest around each tree
The orchard, looks as though it was carefully planned to be exactly in the right spot. This is full credit to Rupert for aligning the fences, to digger Dave for his artificial work with the digger, and of course to our basic initial plan.
One of the fruit trees did not survive, and we wanted to add an extra apple tree. So we called in some grandchildren help for planting
Planting a new greengage tree
The electric fencing is to add extra deer protection, hopefully this is temporary because it is not very sightly.
