Trees are the Secret to Maintenance Free Riches in Farm Town {Facebook}

Planting trees in Facebook seems to be an underrated strategy. Out of all the farms I have worked at, most are dominated by crops planted over and over. While there are several benefits to planting crops such as experience points gained and fast profit turn-around, it can also be very time consuming. Crops must be plowed, then planted, then harvested. This results in a very repetitive process which can get old quick. Why put yourself through that when you could be having fun instead?

Orange trees cost roughly $450 per tree and yield a harvest of about $50. What this means is that it will take about 9 harvests to break even. This seems like a really long time and can obviously be a large deterrant to planting. However, after the break even point has been reached then every harvest after this is pure profit. In Farmtown, trees have unlimited harvests. In contrast, planting crops requires a repeat investment. Another great advantage is the crops on trees don’t spoil like planted crops do, so you can forget about your farm for a long time without maintaining it if your life gets busy.

But what about experience points?

The beauty of this is that once you start raking in the money from your harvests, you can basically buy experience points while you make your farm look nice. If you haven’t noticed, as you purchase items in the stores in Farmtown, you also gain experience points. As you spend more, you generally get more experience points for building the structure. Check out my chart showing how to many you get when you buy experience points for each item in the store.

If you wish, you may also continue to maintain your fields until you have enough orange trees to prosper. Also, if you desire to plant trees other than orange trees, you will have to have a good friend to send them to you as gifts since they cannot be purchased in the stores. I would recommend against this unless you have several friends you can coordinate, because of the limit of sending one gift per day.
