Hah, nice. Good call, gathering newbies in a berry farm. "Come along, my berry-munching sheep!"
I taught some pie stuff to few newbies today, they were so excited about it.
I wonder if you made the farming structure in one "city" with wooden planks laid around the place, bordering nice sized farms for stew, berries and other stuff. The farm yards seemed to have a very systematical order and were never expanded, while the wooden floors were kept tidy and worked well as pathways.

I always wondered if we could ever get this sort of "everyone has their small garden to tend for" world, so instead of a community berry farm, we could have smaller ones around the cities and tend to them when needed. Maybe it's not as functional as it sounds, but I'd rather see berries as something less common to eat in big towns and cities, like it is in real world. Berries are not our lunch.

oh yeah, i will do it until it becomes mainstream
when i will be called sheep for it, i will ''baaaa'' in peace

i taught my last girl to make crust , she starved. dunno where the other 12 girls went, like 8 guys survived, took 10 min to them to realize no babies are coming. like 4 of us stayed til lend anyway.

it was originally morti who did that, setting them up in 3x3 and making roads first, i don't even get why we cant do more spaces in between, columns of berry, checkboard of berry and wooden tiles, berry lines instead of cubes, seriously so many possibilities.

i was bored and out of protest, digged bushes and made roads in middle, like Moses in tomato soup. posted on forum, did it multiple lifes the same week waiting for update.
after a while i seen others doing it

once i was in a city with a nice spot, plenty of wells but they dried out fast, i realized until i get old we run out of water

i found a spot with a pond, made my tiny berry farm with 3x8 bushes, tiles around it, 4 chests in pen wall, middle entrance, upgrade to well, upgrade to pond, compost, apron, milkweed farm, buckets, carts, etc. was the most green district of all city.
much more optimal than taking berry in cart trough city to pen, take back meat to oven and repeat it like twice in a life, i had everything near and after third refresh on bushes the pen was full of sheep.

i had a week when my laptop broke down and using my sisters tiny laptop with no ram, realized how bad it is having one single berry field, lags you out standing near it, starves you going away from it. definitely should be 1 middle, 1 every corner, i don't mind if its 21 bushes each. we don't need to be at the same place same time, impossible to fit 30 people in a city with one generic oven, 1 small pen and nothing to actually do.

This really ruins my Eveing. I always keep my first kid because having a grown kid when you start settling can be a huge boon (worth more than a basket with fire kit IMO). But I certainly don't have time to read baby talk while I'm running around looking for a spot while dodging animals. Stopping to talk with baby drastically increases chances of me starving.
