Canning is not farming. Canning is factory work, produce is processed, taking it beyond primary production.

Traditional canning, the one you can make at home at a stove. In Sims 3 Store as well as Sims 1 there was a cooking station where you could can your fruits and veggies you‘ve grown on your farm! Could be a great hobby for elders as well! It‘s a popular request.

@Movotti I like your input.

If the Sims were to make a farming pack, what would you expect to be included? What type of world (climate/geography/culturally) would you want?

We already have a rural European world, the Countryside in Windenburg, so no that isn‘t needed anymore.
With StrangerVille we got a rural desert neighborhood.
We haven‘t got a rural country world in general, I‘d like a Mid-Western lush country world with those classic red barns, silos and tractors, kind of like Appaloosa Plains, but more green. I‘d like to have a world where there are 4 seasons, including winter, since you‘d have to adapt your farm to all 4 seasons!

I think the biggest thing I care about with world would be that it has no FX houses
because at countryside its rather usual to not have another house in sight really and that is just my idea of countryside

ofc there should be some lots though but just leaving out the fake houses would be fantastic

and yeah it should have 4 seasons as that affects farming big time
