With 3 new machines and olive trees that dwarf all my other trees, I have had to move everything closer together. It's like "Ten in the Bed"! I think new things are great, but our space is finite. I would love to see the option to expand across the river, or something, to give us some breathing room. Is anyone else having this problem?
I am conflicted about this because I do not really want to collect LEMs. I am in the middle of collecting BEMs and then move on to SEMs. Before the new update I was very happy with barn and silo space and thought I would not have to worry about it anymore (since I had what I thought was the last machine, the candy machine). For almost a whole month I was free of worrying about expansion items.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE all the new items but HATE HATE collecting BEMs and SEMs. It is the most frustrating part of the game for me. I am glad the holiday break is coming so I can wheat, wheat, and wheat to get those coveted items.
Long story short, I rather cut back on my number of trees/bushes to make more space than to expand new land. I have actually used up 6 raspberries bushes and did not replace them. Also, shifted things here and there and stored some flower decorations. And now have a nice patch of space.
As someone who has a touch of neatness OCD, I am totally FREAKING OUT. :p
I am at a level that I got all three of the new machines. They are scrunched up against each other, with no nice space in between and it is stressing me out!! It is making me feel sooooo disorganized that I wish I had a Real Life Chill Pill. Lol
I totally agree with you, Earthbiacuit! My OCD is pinging into a definite danger zone!! Everything is so squished, and have you seen how HUGE the olive trees get??!! I can't even see one of my feed mills right now- it's such a mess!:(
No way one of those little hand saws can take down an olive tree either... you watch, the next update they'll either have us allotting special time for "upscale tree removal" or selling power chain saws! :)
SC....please don't get any bright ideas, I'm just kidding!! Lol
Happy Farming All.
Chill out ladies, nip over & join me in my garden ( where there's a lovely inflatable Santa ) with my lovely strawberry ice cream( yes it's not the little Elves that have taken all the strawberries for their jam it's me !):cool:Quote:

I have been staring at my farm and the only cure for this will be to sit down this weekend and gut the whole thing and start allll over. OMG I dread it, but I sure do like a peaceful, organized farm to live on. Pun intended. LolQuote:

I am thinking I need to chill with a big glass of Pinot Noir. Maybe I will get some decorating inspiration! :pQuote:

Oh goodness! Now I am scared. Are the olive trees really that massive? I am saving a green patch for them. Now I wonder if I need more space.
The olive trees take up 1 spot, just like all of the other trees. When fully mature, they seem about the same as a fully mature apple tree (or perhaps a tiny bit bigger). I wouldn't worry about it.

But 4 olive oils, a mayo, a truck order for 3 olives and a salad used them up. Now I have 16 trees and wonder if THAT is enough.
They start out small, but after the 2nd harvest, they are huge! They dwarf my cherry trees!Quote:
