Standard Farm Starter farm

[redbobcat]

This is my STARTER farm, spring year 3 (basically just over 2 years old). No mods, as I’m playing on mobile. A bit OCD, everything lines up :). My goal was to have easy and quick access to daily chores, minimum obstruction when running around, and a bit of pretty flowers here and there. The remote areas of the map are left to grass growing (to cut for hay) and some forest for wood as well. I have chickens, ducks, and bunnies in a coop. Cows, goats, and pigs in a barn. Those truffles sure give nice income. Ancient fruit and pomegranate trees in a greenhouse for year round wine making. Not a crazy money making farm but I’ve bought all I need already, upgraded all the tools, and about to collect $2mil for a teleporting scepter. Community center is complete, grandpa is happy, cooking and shipping achievements are done. Only need 2 pieces for a museum.

I’m also including 1st year and 2nd year maps made in a planner. Perhaps someone will find them useful. 1st year I start with 6x6 fields which work nicely with quality sprinklers later on. Somewhere during the 2nd year I start converting the planting area to 5x5 fields when I can finally make or buy iridium sprinklers. One deluxe scarecrow will cover all the planting area, when you can make it. I do fence off the area for animals but stopped using gates, they are such a pain to close on mobile. The fence still helps to keep animals mostly contained.

Added a quick rendering and a planner map of this same farm but with 2 sheds replacing the outside kegs right here in this post. Thanks to Uzzlegorf for the suggestion!

Looking really good!
(I would put all those kegs in a shed to save space though)

Thank you! I avoid using sheds since keeping kegs outside tells you at a glance when you need to reload them. Besides space is not a problem on this farm.

I solve that by placing an "indicator" one outside, when that one is ready - they are all ready :)

I had the same thought :) Might try that, thanks.

This is a quick rendering and a planner map of the same farm but with 2 sheds for kegs. This will fit most of the kegs inside and with upgraded sheds you can fit even more. Left 1 keg outside of each shed as an indicator. You load all the kegs inside the shed and the one outside at the same time. When the outside one is ready, so are the rest.

Like the layout. Maybe put something in the bottom left corner.

Very nicely organized! I like how each row of kegs and preserve jars has a flower or some other decoration at the end. Anything specific planned for the empty areas?

I love the pond placement!
