orchard
Cultivated tree grove
An orchard is a plot of land planted with fruit or nut trees: apple orchard, peach orchard, almond orchard.
The word implies deliberate cultivation rather than wild growth, and usually suggests trees arranged in rows for harvesting.
We picked apples at the orchard last weekend.
