I was about to post a similar suggestion, but with the addition of being able to sit on the benches/chairs not only on the farm, but in other areas of the town. A sitting option to be available on the docks or the sides of the waterways and lakes, ponds, would be lovely. I'm unsure how that could be implemented though.
I was fishing at a spot I designed on my farm pond and thought how nice it would be to sit on the logs, or have a bench to sit on there. Especially to just stop and listen to the ambient background when I have the music turned off.
