Fruit orchard improvement

This is our orchard. We are unsure of what fruit is growing as when we bought the house there was no signage on it. 

It’s was only the trees with the wooden planter box around it.

we did everything else - mulch, rocks, wooden track for wheelbarrow’s, and the sprinkler system. 
hopefully the trees will be much happier!

Steps

Step 1

Aerated the ground all around the trees, laid cardboard throughout.

Step 2

Placed the timber down and laid rocks around each tree

Re: Fruit Ochard Improvement

Hi @domonique,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

 

This is a wonderful little orchard, and I'm sure the improvements you've made have already made a great difference.

 

Hopefully, when the leaves return in the warmer months, we can identify what you are working with and help you develop things further.

 

Thank you for sharing, and please keep us in the loop. It would be brilliant to see how things develop.

 

Jacob
