Brambles, in particular, protect and nourish young fruit trees, and on farms bramble clumps (blackberry or one of its related cultivars) can be used to exclude deer and cattle from newly set trees.

Our forest ancestors may well have followed some such sequences for orchard evolution, assisted by indigenous birds and mammals.
