Orchard

The Orchard is a fenced plot at the edge of the garden with eight spots for fruit trees and bushes. It costs 10 Peat and comes with Orchardry (20 green), a technology with no prerequisite. Building it also unlocks the three bushes, the Berry Bush, the Blueberry Bush and the Rhododendron Bush; the Apple Tree comes with Orchardry itself. Each of them is planted from one seedling, on one of the Orchard’s spots.

Trees and bushes grow on their own, at a fixed pace, and bear again and again after each picking. Farming lists how long each takes and what it gives.

Notes

  • It can only be built once, on its own spot in the garden. Trees, bushes, stones and stumps there do not stop you placing it.
  • Nothing speeds the orchard up. Its plants ignore the garden’s upgrades, fertilizer and sermons.
  • The seedlings are bought, from Herm at his third tier or at the town Vegetable Stand.
