Before you start your game you will need to create your female or male avatar and set your facial options. You won’t find any clothing selections with just basic overalls available to all farmers. Once you have your avatar options you will be placed on your farm and can begin to build up your land plots. As you farm you will gain experience and will be granted access to different crops and building options for your growing farm. By visiting the marketplace you can sell your crops and hire other players to help you on your farm. Farm Town has more to offer and is different from other Facebook farm games such as Farmville.

How To Farm In Farm Town

Farming in this game is very simple you have two basic tools your plowing tool for planting crops and a scythe for harvesting crops. Before you can plant your crops you must plow the ground. so click the plow tool and place it over land you want to use which will turn green allowing farming. Each time you plow you will use up a few game coins so don’t plow too much land or you won’t be able to buy seeds. Since your field is ready to plant you can click on the store icon and purchase the seed type you want to use.

As a beginner you only have access to a few seed types and each plant will take a certain amount of game time to grow. Use your scythe tool and place it over the plowed land and the seeds will sow automatically. You can continue to do this for every field you want planted and if you want to change seed types, go back to the store for different seeds. The game will deduct the cost of the seeds as you plant them. Depending on your seed type you will have anywhere from a few hours wait to several days until you can harvest your crop. You can clear land you want to change by using the bulldozer located in the tools menu.
