Creator Response Running out of money/crop/etc game pieces

Are we meant to be limited to the amount of money, crops, ores, geodes, etc provided in the game? We earned all the money and then created our own on paper, there wasn't nearly enough for all the activities we could earn money with. For crops/ores/geodes, once played, can we put them back into the bank to receive again or are we only limited to the number that is there?

Money, hearts and Stone are unlimited resources and you may take means to gain access to more if necessary.
Resource tiles from the tray may go back there after being used / their Community Center Bundle being completed, but the amount of tiles being in the game simultaneously is limited by the number of tiles in the tray (For instance, a Collect Animals roll of three Chickens yields four eggs at most instead of six. Or: If there is a total of four Omni Geodes / Iridium Ore in the game already, you cannot get more and may have to resort to getting lesser Ores/Geodes).

DJModulo is correct!

One of my regrets is that there was not an elegant way to include and store more extra stone tiles. In a 4 player game in particular, you can easily have them all taken in player inventories as you try and build down in the mines, but they are not intended to be component limited.
