Responsa for Eruvin 46:16
כמאן כרבי שמעון דתנן ר' שמעון אומר אחד גגות ואחד חצירות ואחד קרפיפות רשות אחת הן לכלים ששבתו בתוכן ולא לכלים ששבתו בתוך הבית
but if the greater part of it is planted [with trees]<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Among which people can, and do shelter.');"><sup>27</sup></span> it is regarded as a courtyard [and the movement of objects within it] is permitted.'
Teshuvot Maharam
Q. Is a person permitted to carry objects on the Sabbath from a planted garden to the house and from the house to the garden, when the garden is adjoining the house?
A. If the major portion of the area of the garden is planted, it is considered a separate enclosure and a person is not permitted to carry objects on the Sabbath from the house to the garden or vice versa. But, if only a small part of the area of the garden is planted, the garden is considered part of the courtyard.
