So nice to find you on RUclips! Tout au long du tournage de "Château DIY", j'ai adoré votre humour :D All along the filming of "Chateau DIY", I've so loved your humour! And so much more anyway, et tant de plus de toute façon. Can't wait for more of you, and wishing you so much happiness - je me réjouis d'en voir plus de vous et je vous souhaite tout le bonheur :o)
Hi all! Mark was right about variety’s! It introduces more cross pollination, which creates a healthier growth. That and creating a vegetable crop which protects and helps with cross diversity in protecting and allowing certain life to thrive that looks after the crops. Norfolk has an amazing loamy soil. But also a high water table which is bad for some but fantastic to other crops. Like Egypt when the Nile floods and they irrigated Chanel’s to capture the wonderful water full of nutrients. Looking forward to see what you do!
I think Mark was right to plant on the lower part! You can have you picnic area on the higher land so the views will still be available. But also the water run of in the dryer months will not only fall on them but also run from the higher points. You can also put another picnic area in the lower parts of the land. As others have said plant a few at the higher point to test and give some shade etc. either way good luck 🍀
Just catching up on the vlogs. Hope those “dodgy” plants do well no matter where you decide to plant. Just going to tune into your next vlog to find out!
I know you have lots of land, but if you chose a smaller root stock you can pack them in and they are easier to pick. Also things like step over apples around portages beds are beautiful. That very red apple looked like Gala. I’d recommend seeking out a grower in your vicinity to see what does best there. Also it helps conserve less commercial/old vintage varieties. You might also add black mulberries, a much underrated fruit in my opinion. You could also seek out a specialist fruit grafter/grower. I knew an old gardener here who had 5 varieties on one tree all grafted scions.
The trees are also shorter, fruit easier to pick! We have an orchard near us and they open the orchard for public picking-you learn a lot from the visits and we pick off the ground.
So happy to see all of you. Here is an idea, why not compromise and plant 6 trees in one area and 7 in the other and see which does best? Looking forward to next week. Hugs to Clement and Juliette.
really recommend a Bramley.. we had a beautiful Bramley in our garden and the fruit the only one to make apple pies and crumbles x pps .. it is soooo refreshing to see an honest video that isn't manipulated to death; hammed up or trying to promote a halcyon life that is totally unreal. Love your passion for the land and all your plans for restoring the Rosieres as an Estate.
Hi! First of all i realy love everything on Your channel so i am not asking You to change anything in the content, so please don't missunderstand this as critisism, it's just a simple wish from the audience nothing more :-) I realy love to dream about owning a Chateau and there is a lot of tips and trixies i carefully take note of for future use on the farm! But one thing i particulary like here is the connection to the rural life and that it seems like we do share some of the hobby and life interests, like growing plants and keeping farm animals, but also i could not avoid notice that we seem to share som childhood dreams of exploring mother nature, i had birds and aquaruim wehan i was a kid and i recently bought a "new" aquarium agian after i did watch Your first video and realised how much i missed it :) I also realy loved to grow exotic plants and flowers, i still bring home exotic seeds from other parts of the world because i am curious about the plants (obviously i alays set them in quarantine first in order to prevent potential desiases to spred) and my home is filled with those plants + those i gather from the gardenhouse sales whan they sell out saplings from exotic species. Ialso let my birds fly free in the room whan they needed to, and i loved to collect fosiles in the old limestone quarry whan i payed a wisit to my grandparents in the south where they had limestone. I still remember My father gave me a box of chickens when i was old enugh to take proper care of them. That's another thing that's on my list as soon as i can settle down here and no longer need to travle as much to the work, and of course i wich to try to add some turkeys! I am a huge bird lover so that theme fits very well i guees... ha ha. I am not sure if i live to close to the roads for peacocks but we wold love to hawe a pair. My father had moufflon sheeps on the deerfarm for keeping the hills open, they are livly and intelligent animals, so if You plan to hawe sheeps, i would say go fore it! But i highly recommend starting with tame breeds first bfore one go into things like moufflon breeds wich i would concider more for the professionals, not because they are harder to take care of, but because they require an entire different type of fence compared to tame sheeps. So, if You wish to share more about the farming and Your pets and exotic flowers, fossile collections or whatever You may find interesting i would realy love to watch it! Take care my frinds! Best, wishes from Sweden!
It’s so lovely to see you all back, you really are a lovely family and so funny, your little ones are so adorable, an orchard sounds wonderful, Marc you may as well give in 😆 my grandparents had an orchard when I was growing up and it was a magical place to play, in the spring you have the beautiful blossom and in the autumn you can pick the freshest fruit, we as children loved to climb the trees, ahh memories, a simpler way of life and all that fresh air, I think it will take a few days for Marc to do the planting, looking forward to the next instalment, much love xxxxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m happy to see you back, an orchard sounds like a good investment for the future and Marc has excellent skills in horticulture. I love the work you do, but also love that you put family first.
Sorry i missed juliette.it isn't often one can see a real pram like the one you have it really is lovely mother's today seem to put children in pushchairs when they are so tiny your pram is real class
Hello to you all and Welcome back in good health once again. Juliette is so pretty and adorable. Beautiful orchard in Norfolk and an inspiring pen for the chickens. I am very excited to see your orchard being planted. Love your hat Marc. Clement loves his fruit. 👌🤗❣xxxxx
I’m in the Okanagan Canada. We get long cold winters & blazing hot dry summers. We were picking apples the second year and had a bumper crop the third year. We didn’t start with the cheaper 20” whips, we went with a larger more established tree which I think is more encouraging to see results sooner. I have one apple tree, so no cross pollination, maybe it’s self fertile, it’s a Spartan variety, we also have a Bartlett pear, green gage and beach plums, cherries Bing and Montmorency and are on less that a half acre. Good luck with your orchard - can’t wIt to see the progress.
My Dad worked in the Fitzgerald orchards in Kelowna as a young man and I mentioned in my comment above that he planted a small one on our property in Burnaby, B.C. Ahh you mentioned Green Gage plums...we had a tree as well! I sure wish I had all that now. I tried planting a few fruit trees where I live now in Pitt Meadows, thought I was smart when I trimmed them one year and I killed every one them! Needless to say, I didn't follow in my Dad's footsteps in that department!
Perhaps the orchard could be planted where you can see the apple, & plums(?) blossoms during Easter dinner in the dining Salon, or seen from the kitchen. Sorry, I don't know the orientation of theose rooms.
I’m glad everyone looks well! That was an amazing farm. We went apple picking this year on top of a mountain. It was beautiful but wow, those slopes! I want to keep following until you have your first apples, at least!
OHHH.......the delicious apples and pears yummy! My Dad, who worked in the orchards of the Okanagan in British Columbia as a young man created a small orchard of various trees such as apples, pears, cherries etc., on our large lot on the B.C. coast and it was fantastic! I could go on ...thank you for bringing back some memories for me. Oh my Juliette is such a gorgeous wee girl, those eyes! Clemente was so cute when he made the sound of the sheep! Love your hat Marc! Another lovely, down home video!
What a breath of fresh air you are Amy and Marc. It is just a joy to watch you and your little family enjoying life in the French countryside. An orchard will be delightful:))
Clement is growing up so fast and what a hansome little chap he really is you could make a good cider with plenty of Apple tree.s and sell it at a Great profit
Hi all you Rosieres, What a great example Klinks Community Farm is. Marc has a great vision with his horticultural knowledge. I know that such a large estate needs careful and meticulous planning which you are undertaking , albeit slower than you would wish and also not what these "Flip" type tv programmes are looking for to satiate the appetites of home "improvers" !!!! Amy, Marc and your babies are going to have such a wondeful property - giving great respect to Rosieres Estate , and to all those over the centuries that have cared for such a special Chateau ( some perhaps not as good). Thankfully Rosieres found such saviours in Marc & your good self. Hugs for all. Juliette & Clement - bisous. Keep safe 😘😘😘😘🌻🌻🌻🌻
Lovely to see you all back and looking so well, little juliette has grown so much and Clement is as cute as ever. Wonderful idea to plant an orchard. X
What beautiful varieties of apples at that orchard. Can you picnic beneath the trees, or compromise half and half. But planting the trees where you would like to picnic Amy, could hide the beautiful view of the Alps. Can’t wait for part 2. xx
Another lovely vlog!! A house near us planted some apple trees quite recently and they already bear fruit! I planted what I thought was a Victoria plum tree and was very impressed with all the tiny plums. But, I waited and waited, and they didn't get any bigger, then I found out that I had planted a Mirabelle plum tree...very nice but the whole yield only made one tart! :) Clement and Juliette are such beautiful children! :) xxx
I do love an apple orchard. I grew up on one in NZ so have very fond memories of my childhood. It will be great having your own orchard. MY bet is that Marc does not stick to the plan lol
If you’ve ever had a whole baked apple studded with cloves with brown sugar and a knob of butter popped in the oven , , then evaporated milk poured over it . So quick to cook so easy and sooooooo delicious , and the children will love them xxx
Lovely Vlog! It may be worth contacting Brogdale in North Kent. They are a research institute and may be able to give you more variety specific advice for your climate conditions.
Very happy to see a video from you .I enjoyed. Planting orchard is going to be hard work but will be deliciously beneficial. Blessings to your little family.
So enjoyable to see the beautiful orchard. Hope it works out for you to start one. We have a peach, plums, and apple tree and I make jam and jellies, cobblers, and pies. Some years are better than others. I love when they bloom. Janice from Arkansas USA
I'm not sure why but I wasn't subscribed, I've rectified that mistake! An orchard would be amazing, imagine all the picnics that could be eaten, and the snacks that could be made!
Any "wild" apples grown from seed are random - often good for cider but on the other hand, seldom sweet and edible out of hand - can be very astringent indeed! Any named apple variety is grafted on I think? - to guarantee you get a certain type of apple. I hope you'll pick some heritage varieties that were once locally common to you - it's wonderful to see these older, endangered varieties being saved! I'm always sorry for apples that are gone now, just because they were not hardy to pack and ship...
Congrats on the arrival of Juliet!!! What a cutie! Please make sure to not plant apples close to any juniper trees, as they can get rust from junipers. You can also plant apple seeds, which will grow into apples, just not like the parent fruit. Many end up being crab-apples, but they are also very useful. Crab-apples are loaded with pectin for making jam, and can be thrown into any fruit jam so that you don't need to buy pectin. Also crab-apples are great for helping pollination for honey bees. Looking forward to seeing your new orchard!
Welcome back. Love the visit to the orchard. So hope you are successful with your orchard. Love the drone shots. So nice to see the family happy and healthy. Thanks for sharing 😍😘
Loved everything about this one. Especially Clement in the orchard. He sure loves all kinds of fruit! Juliet is perfectly perfect in all ways. 💙💗 Prayers for an awesome planting! I know you guys will set upon a compromise! 😉😜
The apple you're think of are called Ganny Smith Apples, best baking apple. You can also espalier the Apple trees if space is an issue. It's so nice to see you back Mark bought heritage spices apple trees.....he'd better plant a few Granny Smiths soon...lol
No they're quite different from Granny Smiths. I think they're called Bramleys. I'm not a bit fan of GS for baking but it's all I can find in France at the moment!
Last year I planted two plums, two apples, cherry, pear and nectarine but the frost got to the flowers so no fruit first year then this year sudden frost again but I covered them up so hopefully I might get some fruit. In our old house I had about 20 plum trees called 'Bonne de Brie', if you find some they give a lot of fruit and are very sweet, makes great preserves. AND they put up new young trees from the root system.
From what I have observed in your vlogs, you research everything well. I am positive that you already know what grows in your area, which trees needs a companion, and what their water needs are. I do have a question though: how do plan on harvesting in the future?
Love looking at what others do to expand their space with trees and animals (not goats). We have several fruit trees and see that it is every other year some trees do better then others. What varieties did you pick?
Oh wow I live in Norfolk.... I'm originally from Yorkshire so dont know a lot of Norfolk even though I've been here 17 years. As I dont drive, but two of my grown up children do drive . Is the orchard somewhere that public can visit or is it private? Where about is the orchard all saying public can visit? Thank you in advance what ever the answer. Your doing an amazing job with two very some beautiful children in tow . Sending love to you all stay safe x
Hi Christina - please have a look for ‘Clinks Care Farm’ - there should be a link in the video but if you search you’ll find them. They have occasional open days where you can visit the farm!
So nice to find you on RUclips! Tout au long du tournage de "Château DIY", j'ai adoré votre humour :D All along the filming of "Chateau DIY", I've so loved your humour! And so much more anyway, et tant de plus de toute façon. Can't wait for more of you, and wishing you so much happiness - je me réjouis d'en voir plus de vous et je vous souhaite tout le bonheur :o)
My favorite introduction to a vlog…….great music,too!
Love the idea you will be planting an orchard. Will be nice to pick the fruit straight off the trees and cook with them.x
Hi all! Mark was right about variety’s! It introduces more cross pollination, which creates a healthier growth. That and creating a vegetable crop which protects and helps with cross diversity in protecting and allowing certain life to thrive that looks after the crops.
Norfolk has an amazing loamy soil. But also a high water table which is bad for some but fantastic to other crops. Like Egypt when the Nile floods and they irrigated Chanel’s to capture the wonderful water full of nutrients. Looking forward to see what you do!
My home county Norfolk 👍 great orchard and layout
I think Mark was right to plant on the lower part! You can have you picnic area on the higher land so the views will still be available.

Brambley apples are for cooking Amy.

I’m happy to see you back, an orchard sounds like a good investment for the future and Marc has excellent skills in horticulture. I love the work you do, but also love that you put family first.
Soil quality, sun exposure, access to water and protection from deer are things to consider when planning your orchard, Excited for you!!!
Such a nice serene atmosphere in the orchard! A nice place to visit!
Sorry i missed juliette.it isn't often one can see a real pram like the one you have it really is lovely mother's today seem to put children in pushchairs when they are so tiny your pram is real class
All that fruit looks so yummy. Looking forward to the orchard progress.
Another charming, beautifully crafted story! Hope everyone is well. Looking forward to the creation of your orchard.🥰

Looks good
I'm not sure why but I wasn't subscribed, I've rectified that mistake!
An orchard would be amazing, imagine all the picnics that could be eaten, and the snacks that could be made!
So glad to see you! I'm so happy to hear you are planting an orchard. I look forward to seeing how Marc does in the next video!
So good to see everyone 🥰 the orchard is going to be NICE!!! Excited to see the fruits of you labor 😘
Consider planting some summer pears, the fruits ripe in July. It doesn't travel well but it's a fantastic treat in the summer!
That's a great idea!
Any "wild" apples grown from seed are random - often good for cider but on the other hand, seldom sweet and edible out of hand - can be very astringent indeed! Any named apple variety is grafted on I think? - to guarantee you get a certain type of apple. I hope you'll pick some heritage varieties that were once locally common to you - it's wonderful to see these older, endangered varieties being saved! I'm always sorry for apples that are gone now, just because they were not hardy to pack and ship...
Great to see you❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hard work but so rewarding. Happy to see what you’re up to. Looking forward to your next video. Glad all are healthy again.
So lovely to see you all again and hope your orchard is fruitful ❤️❤️
Delightful...thanks

The apple you're think of are called Ganny Smith Apples, best baking apple.
You can also espalier the Apple trees if space is an issue.
It's so nice to see you back
Mark bought heritage spices apple trees.....he'd better plant a few Granny Smiths soon...lol
No they're quite different from Granny Smiths. I think they're called Bramleys. I'm not a bit fan of GS for baking but it's all I can find in France at the moment!
@@Chroniclesofrosieres The best apples for baking are Gold Reinettes or in German Boskoop apples.
Excellent baking apples are Northern Spy +
Too many days and NO he will not stick to the plan! BUT that is why we love him so!
Beautiful vlog…..beautiful family. God bless xx
Haha! I love your arguments.
Great to see you all again, good luck with your plans x
Thanks Ann!
This is a wonderful video! Love from Vermont
Thanks Rebekah! We have friends visiting from Vermont soon!
@@Chroniclesofrosieres I'm from Windsor. I hope we'll see your friends in a video.
I love your channel!!!
Well that's lovely to hear Sarah - thank you!
Brogdale in Kent, is the national collection of apples etc.
Last year I planted two plums, two apples, cherry, pear and nectarine but the frost got to the flowers so no fruit first year then this year sudden frost again but I covered them up so hopefully I might get some fruit. In our old house I had about 20 plum trees called 'Bonne de Brie', if you find some they give a lot of fruit and are very sweet, makes great preserves. AND they put up new young trees from the root system.
Oh lovely - we'll look out for them. Hope you get some fruit this year!
Hiya. Oh yes, rosey apples for Rosières! 😘😘
From what I have observed in your vlogs, you research everything well. I am positive that you already know what grows in your area, which trees needs a companion, and what their water needs are. I do have a question though: how do plan on harvesting in the future?
Exiting new projekts
I haven't checked in in a while. I love everything about your intro, the vintage feel. Where did you find the music? Thank you so much.
Love looking at what others do to expand their space with trees and animals (not goats). We have several fruit trees and see that it is every other year some trees do better then others.
What varieties did you pick?
Oh wow I live in Norfolk.... I'm originally from Yorkshire so dont know a lot of Norfolk even though I've been here 17 years. As I dont drive, but two of my grown up children do drive . Is the orchard somewhere that public can visit or is it private? Where about is the orchard all saying public can visit? Thank you in advance what ever the answer. Your doing an amazing job with two very some beautiful children in tow . Sending love to you all stay safe x
Hi Christina - please have a look for ‘Clinks Care Farm’ - there should be a link in the video but if you search you’ll find them. They have occasional open days where you can visit the farm!

Bramley is the No1 cooking apple

Missed your smily faces
In the open areas have bee hives.
We have three sets of beehives around our land and hopefully this will be excellent food for them this year!
