An orchard is used for the planting of seeds which can be purchased from a merchant. Orchards comprise fruit or nut-producing trees which are grown for the sustainable production of food.
Trees which have been planted in an orchard will not yield crops in the first year as they require roughly 4 years to mature before they are able to provide the villagers with either fruit or nuts. It is worth noting that as trees in an orchard grow older they do produce more goods.[1]
Orchards can vary in shapes and sizes with a maximum of up to 15x15 tiles. The biggest orchard plot that would only require one worker is an 8x8 plot.[2]
The following fruit and nuts can be planted in an orchard:

A orchard of 15x15 will give the best Efficiency. Each farmer will manage 75 square which gives a bit more ratio than the other possibilities. A 4x4 field is the worst orchard you can have because 1 farmer will manage 16 blocks. The table below shows the best and worst possible grids per farmer composition.
| Squares | Grid | Farmers | Square per farmer |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16 | 4x4/2x8 | 1 | 16 |
| 72 | 6x12/8x9 | 1 | 72 |
| 75 | 5x15 | 2 | 37.5 |
| 144 | 12x12 | 2 | 72 |
| 150 | 10x15 | 3 | 50 |
| 225 | 15x15 | 3 | 75 |
