The Snow Guide!

  

Winter is coming, which means it’s time for Snow! If that wasn’t enough, get +1 Crop Bonuses from harvesting Crop Packet and Limited Edition Crops during Snowfall!

If you’re level 8 or higher, you’ll see the following pop up. Clicking on the “Go to Market” button will take you to the General Store to purchase Limited Edition Crops for Coins and/or Crop Packets for Farm Bucks. Note: Click on the Newspaper to access the current Snow Quest.

Snow Quests:

To prepare for Snow, you’ll need to complete the Snow Quests, “Snow is on the Way,” “Snowfall Continues,” and “Record Snowfall Expected.” The Snow Quest tasks may vary slightly, depending on your current level and how often you play.

Click on the “Post” button to post a request for that particular item to your Facebook wall – you will get the item when your Friends click on it, or when you click on a similar newsfeed post.

Click on the “Ask Friends” button to send requests for items. If you do not wish to wait for your Friends, you can skip any of these tasks for Farm Bucks.

The three Snow Quests, “Snow is on the Way,” “Snowfall Continues,” and “Record Snowfall Expected“ are similar to the following:

 

Note: You can send a request for items to your Friends every 18 hours.

After you complete the Snow Quest, keep your eyes open for the Snow! Once the Snowfall begins, mouse-over the Newspaper to view the countdown timer until the Snow melts. Be sure to time your Crop Packet and Limited Edition Crops appropriately in order to get the Crop Bonus.

Snow Quest Rewards:

In addition to the Snowfall, completing the Snow Quests earns you Snowflakes for the Holiday Book Quests.Note: If you are between levels 8 – 11, you will earn Coins and XP. If you are above 12, you will earn Snowflakes. If you would like a tutorial on the Holiday Book Quests, please view our official guide: Holiday Book, Stage 1.

As you complete the Snow Quest tasks, you will have the chance to share some Snowflakes or XP with your Friends! Click on the “Share Rewards” button to share rewards with Friends.

  

Snow Crop Bonus:

Any Crop Packet or Limited Edition Crop harvested during “Snow” will get an additional Crop Bonus! A small Snowflake icon above your Neighbor Bar will indicate the Bonus is active. Hover over this icon if you'd like to see how much time you have remaining until it expires (see image below):

Snow Timer: 

Each time you complete a Snow Quest (all three tasks), your Snow timer will reset to 3 days. For example, if you have two days remaining for Snowfall, and then you complete an additional Snow Quest, you will now have Snowfall for 3 days instead of 2 days.
