“nice” is subjective right? This is my first summer’s blueberry farm. The layout was planned around the copper watering can doing 3 in a line. So I could go around each side of each bed and water a line at a time and the route I took would let me refill the can when needed.
I never bothered much with prettying the place up and kept the wild nature of the farm’s unused area for a number of reasons, mainly because it was an unnecessary expenditure of energy to clean it up just to clean it up. Also seemed a waste to cut it all down and store it rather than just take what resources I needed when I knew what to do with it.
I just added the left side of my farm, it’s still wild too. I like having my own forest because I love woods and rain, you know, I’m a sloth.
I have only a few crops that need manual watering now, most of them have sprinklers and my plan was to be a wine farmer, so crops are there just to look pretty, mostly. But nothing absurd, I just plan to have a couple sheds for the wine and a greenhouse with premium crops. Then use the money to furnish the interior of my house.
The only thing I’m missing in screenshots is the animals area. I think I only have it with older visuals.
My kitchen is shock full of barrels making wine. Also have a chicken coop and a barn with some cows in on the left side and a smallish orchard 8-10 trees I think.
I remember planning out a 2nd unit of this configuration for the summer season. But burnt out on the game at this point and haven’t played it since. Partially because lightning would keep zapping my cauliflowers.
i’m still trying hard to not succumb to these fluff talks or obvious marketing screenshots must, resist, urge, to, become, a, digital, farmer…!

I’m not entirely certain what you mean but time is definitely one of your main resources to manage so better make a plan and figure out how to best spend every second in the most optimal way.
I haven’t touched it, not sure if I wanna venture into beta mess. I’ll wait for the stable version and get my mods back on track.
@Danacscott
If you don’t like how fast time goes in the game, there are mods to fix that. Like, pause time when you’re inside a building or just slow down the clock entirely. You can even become a chronomancer!
It is tons of fun, we haven’t really noticed any major issues so far and they have already released like 8 updates/fixes, which is awesome. Although for now we are not using any mods since the beta is so early.
@Enki Yes, that’s what I meant by “time crunchy”. In Harvest Moon, I used to enjoy fishing so much that I always ran out of time to ship, hence always being out of money, lol.
I’m having the same “panic! panic!” feeling with The Sims 3. >.< Chronomancy sounds stellar.
Yeah, I’m not a fan of that either, so I like to give the day a bit more of time overall. I guess that it would be fine as it is in the multiplayer since you have more people to do the various things.
If you consider picking up the game and have chronomancer powers, all you’ll need is a modding API called SMAPI and the TimeSpeed mod. It’s really simple to use and configure, then you’ll have all the time you need for fishing.
Thanks for the tips. Probably not buying much until the Winter Sale on Steam at the end of the year, if anything. I’m trying to save pennies for items I ordered online (tax may apply) and a book that is still being written, :).
In most MMORPGs it’s the same thing with me - I level up so I can go into higher areas to fish. Sometimes I just snuck around and fished anyway. Managed to find a secure cave to fish in Final Fantasy XI. Unfortunately, what I caught killed me, ^_^. Death by slime. Long live the mighty slime!
My friend and I tried this a little while. It’s cool in that you can water each other stuff and you share money. Kinda weird in that you can’t get a special cut scene from the same NPC in the same day. Like with the fisherman, had to get fishing rod from him on the next day.
I like having my own forest because I love woods and rain, you know, I’m a sloth.
