Expanding the Bee Yard

I planted 12 apple trees this weekend in the new clearing. Quite a lot of work to get them in but they are  nicely lined up hopefully will settle in. A number of trees are now in the open with the clearing, so I have been trimming and getting the bittersweet out of them.

So I now have pears and plums from two years ago, these apple trees and replacement raspberries. Our caretaker mentioned that another cleared site would be good for trees so I am thinking of a few cherry trees.
