FarmVille 2 - Green Thumb Games
A new is event is here! Start the Green Thumb games and compete with friends around the world for awesome prizes, such as the exclusive Golden Retriever!
If you are at least level 9, you will see a pop-up inviting you to the Green Thumb Games Event! You will probably have to force close the game to see the update, which means to clear it from your mobile device's memory. You may need to reboot your device.
You will have 14 days to complete the Green Thumb quests, and compete with friends for the top leaderboard position! The lucky ones at the top will earn an exclusive Golden Retriever (Gold Cup level), if you are in the middle position (Silver Cup level) you will earn 10 extra slots to your Barn, and if you are casually playing you can earn 3 Padlocks!
**You will only be able to earn one of the rewards, not all three! The higher you get on the leaderboard will determine what reward you will receive on the last day of the event!**
The Green Thumb Games Trophy Stand will be located behind Eagle Eye Eddie. You will see 3 orders at a time that either can be harvested (crops), or crafted. Each item requested will have a different timer to allow you time to get the items needed.
Tip: Check the Farm Stand often to see if your friends are selling what you need.
Boosts:
On the lower right of the first tab of the Green Thumb Games (image above) is where you can easily access the Boosts available. You can boost the amount of Green Thumb points by 50% for coins, or by 100% with keys. There will be a timer once a boost is activated and a short cool-down period when you can buy another boost. Boosts will last 1 hour, and you can only select one boost at a time. (prices subject to change based on level)
Leaderboard:
The second tab will show you the leaderboard that you are in. Not everyone you know will be in the same leaderboard. The leaderboard tab will tell you which prize category you are currently in (Gold, Sivler, or Bronze). You can also see how you rank among your friends. To be fair to all, you will be in a leaderboard with others that are similar level.
Rewards:
You will see 3 different rewards that are broken into tiers. If you are in the top (gold) portion of your leaderboard on the final day of the event, you will be rewarded with the Golden Retriever. If you are in the middle tier (silver) at the end of the event, you will receive an extra 10 slots in your Barn. If you are in the lower tier (bronze), your reward will be 3 Padlocks. You will only receive one of the rewards at the end, not all three.
Start off the quests by visiting the Green Thumb Games Trophy Stand located behind Eagle Eye Eddie's airplane. The Event HQ is where you earn Green Thumb points, and display the leaderboard. (Shown above)
There are 16 quests in this event. Tap on the Quest Manager on the lower left of your game to find quests. Unlike the past 2 events, this is not broken down into phases, as you will only receive one final reward at the end of the event (aside from quest rewards).
New item needed and where to locate it:
- Spinach: Explore Grandma's Glad & Pappy's Pond, or tend your Prized Animals to find Spinach. Pappy's Pond will give you 3 Spinach. These are the only places to find Spinach during the event, unless friends are generously selling it in the Farm Stand.
**Tip: Crafted items that contain Spinach will be worth higher Green Thumb points! Make sure to have plenty of Spinach to help you move up on the leaderboard!

Your Crop Silo will hold more than just crops! If you reach the maximum capacity of the Crop Silo items can spill over into the Barn.
Similar to the Barn, you will be able to upgrade the Crop Silo to add additional storage. For upgrading you will need padlocks & nails, which are found by exploring Grandma's Glade, Pappy's Pond etc. As an added bonus, inside the Crop Silo you'll be able to quickly sell stacks of crops to help you earn coins and give you space. You can use Quick Sell 5 times a day.
The beautiful Silo will fit in nicely on your Farm.

Big Harvest
Now that you have restored our family farm to its former glory, it's time to take it to new heights of productivity! Inspired by your accomplishments, Cornelius has decided to start a new business that will supply accomplished farmers like yourself with upgrades that you can use to make your farm more bountiful than ever.
Cornelius believes you are ready to deal directly with the local townsfolk, so he's giving you a new Order Board that you can use to earn Favors. Trade these Favors into Cornelius and unlock exciting new upgrades that will allow you to increase production and save space. Explore the limits of your farming creativity with the latest release from FarmVille 2, Big Harvest!
Cornelius believes you are ready to deal directly with the local townsfolk, so he's giving you a new Order Board that you can use to earn Favors. Trade these Favors into Cornelius and unlock exciting new upgrades that will allow you to increase production and save space. Explore the limits of your farming creativity with the latest release from FarmVille 2, Big Harvest!
If you are level 25 or higher, you will see the following pop-up. Click on the "Get Started!" button to get started.
After clicking the button, Cornelius will drop by to upgrade you Market Stand.
New Market Stand & Order Board
Cornelius's upgrades will completely change the appearance of your Stand. In addition to aesthetic upgrades, you may notice the new Order Board on the left-hand site of your Market Stand. The Order Board gives you the opportunity to earn Farm Favors and Coins by completing Orders for the locale Townsfolk.
Click on the new Market Stand to check out your brand new Order Board Menu. The "Order Board" Tab displays what orders you currently have available to complete and the "Sell Goods" Tab will allow you to sell your Goods as you normally would with the old Market Stand.
Completing Orders will earn you Farm Favors that you can use to upgrade your farm. The number of Favors you receive per Order is indicated by the blue thumb on top of an Order Card.
As you can see by the green check marks in the image above, Cornelius already helped you out with your first two Orders. Click on the first one to open the following menu:
The Order shown above will give you 3,900 Coins and 1 Farm Favor for crafting 3 Apple Pies. Since Corny has already provided the pies, Click on the "Complete" button to submit the order and get the rewards.
Return to the main Order Board menu and click on the second Order that Cornelius has assisted you with. This order will give you 590 Coins and 1 Favor. Click on the "Complete" button to submit the order. In addition to your prizes, you will see a pop-up congratulating you on beating your weekly goal.
Click on the "Collect" button to claim your 100 Farm Favors. After clicking the button, your Order board will reset. We will cover more information about Weekly Goals later in the guide, but for now, let's take a closer look at your Order Board Menu.
Using The Order Board - Main Menu
As shown in the tutorial, you must craft items and/or collect goods for the Townsfolk to complete Orders. The menu below shows all of your available Orders (Order Cards).
A - The Order requirements. You must complete these tasks to finish the Order.
B - The number of Coins you will earn for completing an Order.
C - The number of Favors you will earn for completing the Order.
D - How long you have left to complete your Weekly Goal.
E - This bar tracks your progress towards your Weekly Goal. As you complete Orders, the bar will fill. Read on for more information about Weekly Goals.
F - If you don't like the requirements of an Order, you simply can click on the red "X" button in the top-right corner of an Order Card to replace it with a new Order. Once you click the button, a pop-up will appear. After confirming the dismissal of the order, you have to wait the number of hours listed for another order to appear.
G - If you want to speed up the timer for a new order, you can post Fliers to your wall. When you've collected enough Fliers, a new order will appear and you can skip the wait.
H - If you don't feel like waiting or posting Fliers, you can get a new Order immediately by spending Farm Bucks.
Note: Once you complete an Order, a new Order will appear on your board for you to complete.
Using The Order Board - Order Cards
Click on Order Cards in the Order Board menu to see more details about the Order requirements.
A - The Order requirements. You must complete these tasks to finish the Order.
B - If you don't like the requirements of an Order, you simply can click on the red "Discard" button to replace it with a new Order. Once you click the button, the following pop-up will appear. After confirming the dismissal of the order, you have to wait the number of hours listed for another order to appear.
C - Click this button to return to the main Order Board menu.
D - The number of Coins you will earn for completing the Order.
E - The number of Favors you will earn for completing the Order.
F - The number of Farm Bucks required to complete an Order Requirement. This is an optional choice for players who wish to skip the task.
G - Once you have fulfilled the Order Requirements, click this button to complete your order and claim your prizes.
H - This bar tracks your progress towards your Weekly Goal. As you complete Orders, the bar will fill. Read on for more information about Weekly Goals.
Weekly Goals
Each week you will be asked to complete a certain amount of Orders. If you beat this goal, you will be rewarded with additional Favors, as shown in the image above. The bar on the right-hand side of your Order Board menu indicates how long you are progressing towards your weekly goal, and the timer at the bottom of the Order Board menu indicates how long you have left to complete your weekly challenge. Once this timer expires, you will receive new Orders and a new weekly goal. If you do not hit your weekly goal by the time the timer expires, you will not receive additional Favors as a prize.
If you complete all 15 Orders before the time runs out, you will get special orders, which brings you more Farm Favors and Coins than usual orders.
Farm Favors
After collecting yoru first Farm Favors, you may be wondering what they are for. Trade Favors into Cornelius to unlock exciting new upgrades that will allow you to increase production and save space. Currently, you can use Favors to upgrade your Groves and Fields, but we have more exciting upgrades planned in the near future.
Double Favors often appear after completing Orders, so keep your eye out for them to get bonus Favors and share them with friends! As their name implies, a Double Favor will grant you two Favors instead of just one. They will appear on your farm in a similar fashion to Prize Goods.
If you find a Double Favor, you will see the following pop-up:
Upgrading your Farm
To upgrade your farm, click on the new upgrade button. It's located on the bottom right-hand side of your screen, next to the Inventory button.
The Upgrade Menu shows all of the upgrades that are currently available and the requirements needed to unlock them.
Note: Not all upgrades are currently accessible. Some upgrades require a certain level or other upgrades to advance. Click on any upgrade to see what requirements you need to fulfill in order to unlock it.
A - The list of upgrades and the level required to unlock them.
B - Use this bar to scroll though all of the available upgrades. Click on “Upgrade View” button to see what items on your farm are upgradable.
C - A list of the perks an upgrade will provide you. In the image above, you can see that upgrading to a Field will provide more crops, faster mastery and more Prize Crops.
D - The number of Coins and Favors required to unlock an upgrade.
E - Use this button to purchase your upgrade once you have completed all of the requirements.
Fields
Big Harvest is all about allowing you to explore the endless potential of your Farming creativity. In order to really unlock your full farming potential, we recognize that many of you need more space. Our answer to this problem is Fields. Fields will allow you to plant more crops, master your crops faster, get more prized crops, and save space! One Field is the equivalent of 5 plots, but it only takes up the space of 4.
Before you can use a Field, you have to build one. If you reached Level 25 or above, you can select Level 1 Fields from the Upgrade menu. Once you have selected the field, place the construction frame on your farm.
Note: If you place your construction frame on existing plots, we'll harvest these plots for you and refund any water, fertilizer and coins you have spent.
After placing the construction frame on your farm, you have to wait for the Townsfolk to help you finish building it. If you want to see how long you have to wait until the construction is finished, you can click on the construction frame.
Note: If you don't feel like waiting, you can skip ahead with Farm Bucks.
Once the timer is done, click on the “Finish Now!” button to let the Townsfolk complete the construction.
Before you can use your new Field, you have to put 5 normal plots into the field construction. Click on the “Tools” button in the bottom right-hand side of your screen, and move 5 plots into your field. Now, your new field is ready to be used!
Note: When you unlock Fields for the first time, you can purchase up to 5 of them for your Farm. You have to purchase each of these Fields individually (you will not recieve 5 level 1 Fields in a single purchase).
Ladybugs Are On The Loose
The Ladybugs all over your farm do lots of good things for your crops, but now you can catch them and put them to even better use! Harvest crops and you'll discover Ladybugs that will earn you prizes, including a Baby Magpie Duck.
Build your Ladybug Catching Kit so that you can get to the capturing!
Get a little help from your friends to put the finishing touches on your Kit. And after that you should be ready to get to it!
Collect decorations, trees, and resources on your way to earning your very own Baby Magpie Duck!
