Welcome to the Winter 2024 Seasonal Event. This event starts Dec 2, 2024 and runs until Jan 7, 2025.

This is a task based event to collect, collect, collect and build your own Christmas tree. To start the first task, you need to acknowledge (click on) the Christmas Wreath in your notifications (under your happiness). The task list below is based off of last year and changes we have seen so far and are not guaranteed. If you see something different, let me know.

To do this event, follow the tasks in the blue task book:

• Activate the first task (wreath in notifications under happiness)
• Build the level 1 Christmas Tree 2021
• Collect ginger (plant and harvest)
• Collect winter feed (made in the mill)
• Feed to chickens, pigs and cows for cookies
• Collect cookies to complete tasks and get baubles
• Complete further tasks (decoration level 4+) to get lights and the star
• Use the baubles and lights to upgrade the tree

There are 3 sets of tasks intermixed in this event. You can have up to 3 tasks open at once and you will need to finish some to collect the supplies to do the upgrade the tree tasks. Some tasks (for ginger, lights and star) unlock only after you complete an upgrade the tree task.

Cookies come from feeding Chickens, Pigs and Cows winter feed. The amount of cookies is fixed per stable and does not depend on level.

• Chickens - 14
• 'Special' (Free Range, Candy, Tropical) Chickens - 18
• Premium Chickens - 22
• Pigs 23 (11.5/10 bags)
• 'Special' Pigs - 29 (14.5/10 bags)
• Premium Pigs 37 (18.5/10 bags)
• Cows - 58 (9.7/10 bags)
• 'Special' Cows - 71 (11.8/10 bags)
• Premium Cows 93 (15.5/10 bags)

Best option is to still feed chickens. Put in a temp level 1 Candy Chicken.

You can build multiple trees, however you can't get any more lights. Baubles will need to come from gift boxes and you still can't get blue ones. The best you can do is a couple level 3 trees which have no value on your farm beyond looks.

Cookies are not worth nearly as much as Halloween Candy ($312.50 vs $1000) in the market and this year they give materials instead of winter coins.

There are 5 cafe recipes and a new fish recipe as well. Using cookies for recipes is 2-5 times cheaper than using honey. If you have the cookies, use them in the cafe and sell your honey in the market (or make glazed fish).

Seaweed humus is available in the fish cafe for ginger and green fillets.

There are Blue and Green coins. These are used to buy gifts under the shopping cart. Coins come from completing tasks and upgrading the tree. This year they changed the gifts. Green coins will give mainly seaweed feed, humus, fertilizer, and fuel, gold seeds, rose seeds and paw prints. Blue coins give high end humus and fishing lures.

There is no place in the game that shows you how many Christmas Balls or lights you have, so you need to check them by looking at what it will take to upgrade the tree.

Where do I get baubles to upgrade my tree? Do the tasks.

Special Animals

We know that it takes 16,750 cookies to finish the event. We also know that feeding 2 free range or adventure chickens vs regulart chickens can save up to 2,000 bags of feed or 10,000 ginger!!!! Do not underestimate the bonus cookies these builidings give.

Many mature farms are overflowing with +110 happiness or better decorations. They will skip this event. After the tree is finished, the cookie tasks increment by 50 each step until 3800.
