Located adjacent to the new main campus entrance, the Orchard is a welcoming natural feature that will host a variety of fruit trees, attract pollinators and birds, and provide residents with a harvest of seasonal fruits including apples, pears, and peaches. On the west side of the new building will be a large, relatively flat open space planted with orchard tree species. Designed as a new kind of “campus green,” this space will allow for gathering and use as a shade lawn, but its plants will all be fruit- or nut-bearing, making it a critical component of the agricultural landscape at the Divinity School. It will feel both new and familiar at the same time.
