Alright Guys and Gals
I have managed to get my hands on anotehr couple of plots adjacent to mine, so have 3 now.
The first is all raised beds and a couple of greenhouses and a shed and compst pile which I have had for a few years now. Its got very little scope now for new areas as its all boxed off - hance my desire to get my hands on a couple more plots.
The second I am going to put 20 raised beds 12ft by 4 ft for vegetables, not bothering with a greenhouse or shed as I have one on my old plot and one on the new.
the third plot I am planning on making fruit only - an orchard if you like, and its on this I have a few uestions.
Planning to build a cage 18ft by 12ft for blackberries and raspberries - what otehr fruits would/should I have in here ?
got a strip of land 20ft wide and 35ft long I was going to plant some rows of fruit trees on - how close/far apart should I plant the rows. I was going to put a row of apples, one of pears, one of plumbs, one of cherries and one of apricots. Is htere any problem having these next to one anotehr ?
Any other tips, help or advice would be welcome.
