The yard

Six raised beds and a shelf of home-grown fillings.

A wooden garden trug with seedlings, seed packets, a watering can and a trowel

Behind the shop there is a small walled yard that Tante Maëlle let the dandelions have. It opens on the morning of day 6, when Mamie Hortense knocks on the day card with a trowel.

So this is where Maëlle hid it. A whole yard, and she let the dandelions have it the year her knees gave out. I have brought raspberry canes for your jam pan and a lemon tree in a pot. Mine were better, of course. These will do.

She brings 2 × raspberry canes and 1 × lemon tree in a pot and 1 sack of compost.

How it works

  • One tap per bed does the obvious thing. An empty bed asks which packet to plant; a thirsty bed is watered; a ready bed is picked.
  • Crops grow in real time, also while the app is closed: from 2 h for the quickest to 2 days for the slowest tree. The very first planting is in a hurry and is ready in minutes.
  • Watering is never needed and nothing wilts: each can, once per growth stage, brings the crop on by 8% of its growing time.
  • Compost brings one growing bed on by 50% of its time, once per planting. The heap gives a sack every 4 harvests; the seed crate sells 2 sacks for 4 pearls.
  • Trees and logs are picked several times before the bed is free again.

The shelf

What you pick goes onto a shelf of home-grown fillings, counted in portions. Three things make it worth it:

  1. A crêpe's home-grown fillings come off the shelf, so they cost the till nothing.
  2. The guest tips 0,30 € more for each home-grown filling on their crêpe.
  3. A crop's own fruit that the market has not delivered yet is on the menu for the day whenever the shelf held some that morning: a second road to a new filling, for as long as the shelf lasts. What a crop makes in the pan (lemon curd, blueberry compote, chocolate spread) is free stock, but only on the menu once its own card is bought.

Seeds and seasons

Seeds are bought with euros from Monsieur Anselme's seed crate, by day or in the evening: a few packets of each kind a day, and new kinds as your harvest count grows. The yard's seasons follow the game's weeks, one season per 7 days, starting in spring: Spring week, Summer week, Autumn week and Winter week. Each season brings its own rare seed. See all 14 crops.
