I have an idea too for a Svandinavian (Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and Icelandic inspired) farm pack:
Introduction:
Welcome to the sweet country life in the Scandinavian! Move you family into a modern farm with simplistic furnitures and make a big fortune by having a lot of animals and crops and producing weed, nectar, milk, wool, meet and eggs. Or if you prefer the simple life, start a traditional farm with a few chickens and perhaps a horse and dress up with a flower crown.
Do many activities like sewing, knitting and nectar brewing. When you are hungry, enjoy eat out meal, meat balls and layer cake.
While the adults are working, let the children play with wooden toys or jumping the rope. Or perhaps they will make a perform a viking play for the grandparents.
When done working and playing, let the whole family dress up in traditional Scandinavian clothing and enjoy the folk dance.
Or just go for a walk or take the bike and enjoy the northern lights, high mountains and green fields with the solar and wind power systems in the distance.
The scandinavian countries are known for the happy populations. The reason for this is not the rainy weather, but our welfare systems: Sometimes you can’t find a job cause everything is taken. Or you are too old or sick to work. Or perhaps you are just studying, your parents are poor and you do not have time for a job. But don’t worry - the society’s got your back! Everybody will get a decent amount of money and pay a bit of taxes - and everyone, young and old - will get a basic income in return if needed.
Themes in build/buy/create a sim:
All items in build, buy and create a sim has two different aesthetic themes: A modern theme and a traditional theme (perhaps based on the scandinavian / north european 1950s).
Small activities:
Sewing machine
Knitting
A few new recipes or updates of old recipes
Medium activities:
Butter and cheese making
Flour making
Nectar brewing
Chickens and eggs
Big activities:
Cows
Sheep
Create a sim:
Clothes and hairstyles
Horses
New farmer aspiration
New farmer trait (makes you gain farming related skills faster)
Skills
Wool making, sewing and knitting
Butter and cheese making

One big world
2 smaller lots (for traditional off the grid farms) - for small and medium activities:
These lots have an edible part where you can build a house and place a chicken house and a few animals and hand run machines for making butter, cheese, flour.
The none-interacting surroundings of these lots are more traditional with nature, old farmhouses and mills.
2 bigger lots (for modern farms) - for big small, medium and big activities:
These lots are bigger and on the edible part you can make a modern farm/ranch.
These livable lots have access to non-edible lots where you can access your many sheep, cows or horses.
1 community lot:
The aesthetics of the lot is based on the traditional and modern style mixed together
Farmers marked: Her you can sell and buy
Every livable lots have an edible part where you can build a house and place a chicken house or a few animals.
