There's an old house, a barn, a silo, and a fair bit of land waiting for attention in Farm Village. You won't be doing much business until these basics are sorted out. Start clearing the fields and plant some wheat. While it grows, you can work on restoring the property and preparing space for animals. The early stages are fairly modest, but you'll soon have more things demanding your attention.
Chickens, cows, pigs, sheep, and goats are available to raise. They all need food, and forgetting to restock their feed can interrupt the supply of eggs, milk, and wool. These products are useful on their own, but there's another option: take them to your production buildings. A windmill can process crops, a bakery makes finished food, and other factories handle goods from your livestock. It gives you something to do with all those materials piling up in storage.
Orders from customers and nearby villages give your farm a reason to keep producing. Check what's being requested, gather the necessary goods, and send them off by truck, train, or horse-drawn carriage. Each completed delivery earns coins and experience points. Sometimes you'll already have everything in storage; other orders may require a little planning before you can fill them.
As your earnings build up, you can clear blocked areas, claim additional plots, construct houses, and add decorations. There's also room to improve existing production facilities and make better use of your land. You might spend one session looking after animals and another getting a bakery ready for a new order. Farm Village brings farming and village management together, with plenty of small decisions behind the growth of your countryside home.
