Subject: [NAFEX] Orchard planning--general advice needed
I am considering a new house but I am concerned that the backyard will not
be orchard friendly. I would like any advice to help me make a decision.
The backyard has a space 30' x 115' feet that is on a very gentle southern
facing slope in Maryland. The Northen side of the rectangle is one of the
long sides (115') and has an E-W orientation, but abuts a tree line with
trees around 30-40 ft high. The long Southern edge and the short edges on
the East and West are open.
Will my apples, pears and peaches but starved for sun and not grow?
Thanks.
