A yard or open area where green plants, vegetables, or timber are stored or processed; a garden or storage yard.
Compound of 'green' and 'yard' (Old English 'geard'), referring to a work or storage area specifically for green materials or growing plants.
The word 'yard' originally meant an enclosed space, which is why we have 'farmyard,' 'shipyard,' 'dockyard'—each '-yard' is a working space defined by its specific function!
