2009 Tom The Apple Man Orchard Survey

Abridged Extract:

Below are two examples of surveys I have carried out recently. The first survey was done in Cheshire at a site of an existing orchard.

Background

At the request of name I visited the orchard at The Farm, on 25-04-09.

The orchard consists of three areas;

Area 1. A small orchard in the farm house garden

Area 2. A small orchard in the picnic area. This orchard consists of four newly planted trees, Bee Bench, Lord Combermere, The Lemon Apple and Wareham Russet

Area 3. The main orchard to the south west of the farm yard. 

The purpose of the visit was to advise Mr name on the potential for developing the orchard and maintaining the existing trees. The Farm is under a HLFS and in order to qualify for grant aid a management plan needs to be produced for DEFRA.
