Alternative vegetable coming from fruit farm (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

orchard

'fruit farm' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'alternative vegetable' is the wordplay.
'alternative' becomes 'or'.
'vegetable' becomes 'chard' (chard is a kind of vegetable).
'or'+'chard'='ORCHARD'

'coming from' is the link.

(Other definitions for orchard that I've seen before include "Area set aside to grow fruit" , "Fruit-tree plot" , "Fruit tree plantation" , "Enclosure containing fruit trees" , "Group of fruit trees" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
