Anyone here growing a fruit forest?

All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.
See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

One consideration is the seasonality of the fruits that you grow. Additional fruit-bearing plants would ideally produce during gaps between the other fruit seasons so that you have a continuous harvest for as much of the year as possible. That's something that will be specific to your area though, so I can't really advise.
If you toss in any native plant seeds that you can find and then don't mow, the lawn will eventually reforest itself. (If you were in North America, I would recommend Robinia pseudoacacia.) Less work than mowing 1-3 times a year. In the beginning, pulling the grass at the edge of the clover can help a lot, and it only takes a few minutes every month or so.
