Click on the Make button to start crafting if you have the complete ingredients. If you are lacking ingredients, don’t worry, as you can get Bait by harvesting fertilized Water Crops. Ask and Post for the Garlic Essence Vial and Fishing Beads. To plant the Corsican Hellebores purchase it from the General Store.






There is a waiting time before you can proceed to fish. Take note that each Fishing Area differs in the amount of time it takes to craft the Groundbait






 While waiting, you can prepare another Fishing Area.

 

 Once the waiting time is over, you can go catch a fish by clicking on the “Go Fishing” button

You will start earning rewards when you reach milestones in the Tournament. The yellow bar will mark your progress.

The Music Festival!

Rusty aspires to be a good leader. Although he admires Marie a great deal, he realizes that he needs to be himself and play to his own strengths. That’s why he wants to share his love of music with the townsfolk, by organizing a grand Music Festival! You can help by setting up a Music Shoppe on your farm and for your efforts, you’ll be rewarded with a baby Bannur Sheep!

In your Shoppe are three Stalls where your customers will get their orders from: Musical Mementos, Tuneful Treats, and Finest Instruments.

The counter on the lower left corner of the Shoppe will help you keep track of the number of Tokens you’ve received.






You’ll start getting rewards when you reached specific milestones.






When you’ve served 5 customers fully and consecutively you’ll get 5 Happy Points and win 30 Minutes of Free Water in the Happiness Streak!

The Aviation Coop!

Gus found two baby turkeys jumping off roofs and fences. And do you know why? It’s because they want to take flight! Now, Gus can’t simply leave them on their own as they may get hurt with their antics. He knows they’ll be in good hands with you so how about building an Aviation Coop in your farm where you can take care of them and teach them to fly. For your efforts, you’ll get a baby Osceola Wild Turkey and a baby Deutsche Pute Turkey.

If you are level 15 or higher, the “Flying High!” popup will appear. Click on the “Place Aviation Coop” button to start the feature.

 

 

 

 

To build the coop, you need to collect all the materials you need.

 

 

 

 

Then, ask your friends for help or hire builders.

 

 

 

 

The finished coop will look like this:

 

 

 

 

To start adopting the two animals, click on the building. You’ll see on the right side of the menu the set of tasks that you need to complete for each of these baby animals.

 

 

 

 

For the baby Osceola Wild Turkey, there are only two tasks left to complete: collect 8 Suet Bird Cakes and make 5 Heat Lamps.

Getting the Suet Cakes is easy. You only need to complete the Renovation Supreme line of quests. There are two ways to access this quest. One is by clicking on the Go To Quest button in the menu.

 

 

 

 

The other way to access the quest is to click on its icon at the left side of the screen.

These items are easy to craft and in no time you’ll be able to adopt the baby Deutsche Pute Turkey.

 

 

 

 

These baby animals can’t wait to go to your farm and learn to fly!

Even the most talented farmers can use a helping hand from time to time. Whether it's some extra water or another plow to harvest your crops, a great Neighbor can make all the difference when you're having a tough day on the farm. Now that Co-ops have been released, it's more important than ever to make sure you have neighbors you can rely on! (Learn more about Co-ops here: Farm Co-ops Guide)

 

On Fridays, FarmVille 2 invites you to participate in Add Me Friday. We know that there are Farmers out there looking for neighbors just as active as they are, and it's our goal to bring you together.

It's easy! Leave a comment with a link to your Facebook profile and a message to future Neighbors! 

Please take a moment to read the Rules.

Commenting Rules:

• Any comment in violation of the Terms of Service will be removed. A link to the Terms of Service can be found HERE.

• Include your profile link, or people won't be able to add you! (Copy/paste your Facebook URL).

• Let others know what kind of farmer you are, and what kind of Neighbors you are looking for. Everyone plays FarmVille 2 differently, so this information can be important! 

• Please refrain from spamming the blog post with tons of "Add Me" requests. This makes it harder for people to find Neighbors and we may have to remove your comments!

Community Neighbors:

In addition to Add Me Fridays, the Community Neighbors feature allows you to add Neighbors who aren't your Facebook friends. That way, even if your Facebook friends don’t play FarmVille 2, you can still get in on the fun! 

Visit the guide for all of the details: Community Neighbors

We hope everyone finds lots of new friends and Neighbors. See you!

All In Good Taste!

Barbara’s household is all of a flutter ever since talk of the election started. It’s all she ever hears about anymore and waiting around for the results is only adding to her stress! She’s always found cooking to be a huge stress reliever at times like these and she’s been cooking up a storm for her new revamped menu at the B&B!

Barbara believes that holding tasting trials will help her finalize on her new menu! She’ll need your expert help to host Tasting Sessions at the Kitchen Bar and she’ll give you a baby Guernsey Mini Goat for your hard work.

If you are level 15 or higher, the “All In Good Taste!” popup will appear. Click on the “Build Kitchen Bar!” button to start the feature.

 

 

 

 

The first step to build the bar is to collect all the materials you need.

 

 

 

 

Next step is to ask your friends for help or hire builders.

 

 

 

 

When you’ve finished building the bar, it’ll look like this:

 

 

 

 

Click on the bar and start sampling the new B&B menu. There are four courses to taste: Soup, Appetizer, Main Course, and Dessert. You can only sample the first course as you need to finish it first before the next one is unlocked.

 

 

 

 

Start hosting the Soup tasting by completing the tasks that are shown in the menu. Take note that each course has a different set of tasks that must be completed.

 

 

 

 

After completing the tasks for each course, you will get a reward. For the Soup course, you’ll get Resources.

 

 

 

 

To host tasting sessions for each course, you’ll be collecting Place Cards and inviting friends to attend

 

 

 

 

There are four easy ways to collect Place Cards:

1. Complete the tasks for each course. Each task gives out a different number of badges.

 

 

 

 

2. Complete quests in the In the Spotlight! line of quests.

 

 

 

 

3. Ask for help by clicking on the Post button on the lower left part of the menu.

 

 

 

 

4. Buy Place Cards using Farm bucks.

 

 

 

 

Check the counter to see how many Place Cards you have collected. Take note that excess Place Cards will be carried over for the next set of requirements.

 

 

 

 

When you have collected the 6 Place Cards needed for the first course, you can now invite 4 friends to attend. There are two ways to complete this requirement: click on the Invite button or buy Invites.

 

 

 

 

Once your friends have accepted the invitation, proceed with hosting the tasting session by clicking on the Soup-er Trooper! button

 

 

 

 

Now, watch while your friends taste the Soup of the Day that Barbara has created.

 

 

 

 

Next, you will be able to claim and share your rewards from the tasting session you’ve just hosted.

 

 

 

 

You can now begin completing tasks for the second tasting session.

 

 

 

 

Complete hosting all the tasting sessions to get the baby Guernsey Mini Goat and 10 Favors.

 

 

 

 

Start hosting your Tasting Sessions now and get fantastic rewards!
