Greetings! We very much enjoyed spending another Monday evening among friends with whom we might never have met if not for this remarkable game and their willingness to support community outside the isometric arena of Farm Town.
The primary focus of this episode was to discuss the most recent update which roundly delivered new levels, crops, items and features. It was a very nice evening spent talking over these topics with friends, but ended quite somberly as I had to announce that there will be no more new episodes of Farm Town Weekly being recorded on Monday evenings.
We did intend to deliver a fourth season however due to circumstances and events unseen in our forecast, we will be unable to do so at least not at the present time. Please listen for more details and thank you all so very much for your support over the last 12 months.

On this episode we discuss fishing, facilities, and making a “Help Wanted” post to your wall asking neighbors to come and harvest/plow at your farm. We also talked about desired upgrades to current features and a few new ideas. Was a lot of fun and a great crowd in our live chat.
Another topic we discussed is a fun thread in the official Farm Town discussion forum called Sniff, Sniff, Boo, Hoo. This thread is a multi-contributor saga started by Ms Penny about the goings-on at her “seedy” little Trailer Park (Farm 2) and Bubba’s Prison (Farm 3). We featured screen shots of these farms on our Facebook Fan Page and the story line now includes Jets Cousin, Cletus Hill who is currently sitting on Death Row at Bubba’s Prison. There is really only one way to get up to speed on the Trailer Park Players and that’s to start at the beginning and read to the current post. It is a lot of reading but what else do you have to do while you’re waiting for wheat?

David Cooper sent me this information on the recent updates just prior to our last show so we could share it on the program. I decided to go ahead and post it here for you in case you have additional questions. For very detailed information about every aspect of Farm Town, please check out Davids “Farm Town Data Sheet.”
Chicken Coop: Allows you to harvest the eggs of the hens and geese and sell the eggs at the marketplace. The Hen is a new animal that your friends can send you as a gift. You can harvest them once every day.
Wool Shed: This is a new building that allows you to harvest the wool of the sheep and llamas and sell the wool at the marketplace. You can harvest them once every 2 days…. See More
Dairy Shed: Allows you to harvest the milk of the cows and goats and sell the milk at the marketplace. You can harvest them once every 3 days.
You just need to click on the animal building and select the harvest option. All the animals on your farm related to that building will be harvested at once. Note that depending on your computer power and other factors, having an exesive amount of animals on your farm can make the game slower.
The Dairy Shed has been moved from level 49 to level 27. A new Stone Cabin has been added on the level 49.
- Cow’s Milk, 3 days, 100 coins
- Goat’s Milk, 3 days, 90 coins
- Sheep’s wool, 2 days, 55 coins
- Llama’s wool, 2 days, 65 coins
- Hen’s eggs, 1 day, 25 coins
- Goose eggs, 1 day, 30 coins.
Also, your item storage capacity has been increased. Now you can storage 5 additional items for each neighbor you have.

Tonight, Mountain Mamma, Ms. Kelly and I enjoyed having our friend David (Farm Town Data Sheet) on the show with us once again along with our Ol Friend Colby. The five of us talked at length about a range of Farm Town topics.
For those interested in following us for another season, we have yet to make a final decision but promise to make that announcement on the next episode. Thank you for your patience!
Following an hour of Farm Town discussion, we talked for a while about the website, People of Walmart. The commentary about this popular website was partly just for fun and partly for thought.

This is the last episode of 2009 and Oh Boy did we have technical issues at TalkShoe. Thanks to all of you that stuck with us and seen the show to the end. I do want to mention that on this episode we welcomed April Hinkle, Bill Hamilton, and Roger Haffner to a chair on our honorary Farm Town Weekly Board of Directors and congratulate them each here once again.
We also talked about the “Farm Town Classifieds – Help Wanted Ad” post that can be made from our website and asked folks to give it a try this week. A brief discussion about the current poll on our website and if there is still a need for a “Fire” button. In addition, an array of Facebook topics was discussed from privacy changes to pending changes to profile layouts. Fan pages versus application profile pages and how to disconnect from a group. In spite of the technical troubles with TalkShoe, it was certainly a great evening thanks to having neighbors on with us to share in the conversation.

My friend and neighbor, Desiree Kettler shared this “Things in real life that remind me of Farm Town” foto. She didn’t include a description but it would appear that she has been at a Farmers Market when these cabbage and peppers jumped out at her. She snapped a picture and sent it to me and I had to smile when I seen this because for a while about all I planted was cabbage and peppers. How funny! Thank you Desiree.
