How to Building Orchards

You’ll get your first Orchard frame for free the first time you play FarmVille after it updates, and will immediately be entered into Placement Mode. You can place the Orchard frame on your farm now, or you can choose to place it in your Gift Box for use later.

There are no level restrictions for the Orchard. You can have up to 10 Orchard in your farm, but building only one at a time.

The Orchard is a constructable building, so you’ll need a grand total of 30 parts (10 bricks, 10 nails and 10 wooden boards) to finish it.

Like other constructable buildings, you can ask your neighbors for these parts by posting to your feed, give parts to your neighbors via the Free Gifts page.

Once an Orchard is fully complete, you can choose to start building another one by buying an incomplete Orchard frame in the Market (for 1,000 coins) or a fully complete Orchard (30 Farm Cash).

Each Orchard can hold up to 20 trees, which you can move into the Orchard simply by clicking on tree, selecting Move, and then clicking on the Orchard you want to move the tree in to. Visually the Orchard will show each of the individual trees you put into it. You cannot directly choose where the trees are placed in the Orchard, but you can choose the order by which they go into the Orchard, and that order determines how the Orchards look visibly.

This means that the look of the Orchard can change wildly depending on the trees you put into it. Orchards can also be lined up and arrayed quite easily, so making large colorful displays is entirely possible.

You can also look inside the Orchard by clicking on it and choosing “Look Inside”. Here you can see all the types of trees currently in the Orchard, and lets you remove trees individually from the Orchard.

If you click on “Buy More Trees” you’ll be taken to the Market page for Trees; “Ask for Trees” will make a post in your feed asking for more trees. You’ll also see 3 stars by each type of tree as well as a separate button for Tree Mastery—see that section below for more details!

You cannot place Seedlings inside the Orchards, only Trees!
