Tree crops are groves or orchards of trees that are grown for either an economic or environmental benefit. The most common tree crops produce fruit or nuts; however, tree crops can also be grown for timber production or specialty reasons, such as Christmas trees.

Vineyards grow grape-bearing vines. Grapes are grown, not only for wine or juice, but also as table grapes and for raisin production.
