Overview
A new farm opens with Huckleberry's welcome card. It tells you it's spring where you farm and that your first field is waiting. It only shows for a farm that hasn't started yet, and it never changes your save by itself.
Your first three steps
- Find your site: your address, or Pick for me for a private estimate.
- Record a soil test. Drainage first: lavender hates wet feet.
- Plant your first row. Real weather where you farm drives every season.
How much challenge?
| Choice | What it means |

| 🌱 Guided (picked for you) | A forgiving start with lighter upkeep and recovery help, plus 200 extra starting coins. |
| 🚜 Working farm | Balanced production, business and stewardship. The standard game. |
| 🏭 Commercial | Tighter margins, faster wear and full operating discipline. Starts with 50 fewer coins. |
