I adore Hensford and have sims doing the cottage living and simple life there but I have other Gardner sims who I call my desert dwellers and would love to live the same way but for me they don't fit the.... personality or aesthetic...of HensfordHas anyone set up a "ranch" style situation with success? Or in other worlds in general such as Willow Creek or for that matter making Magnolia Promenade a farming location? I simply can't fit everyone in Hensford or they don't fit in Hensford (nor the simple living challenge as they aren't simple life kinda sims)

I’ve been in windenburg with my main family. Set up a nice farm on the 64x64 lot on the island. Large garden with oversized crops as well, all farm animal types and still had room for a pond and small pool lol. It all seems to run and work smoothly.

I feel like Brindleton Bay would be a nice place for a farm/cottage, been considering building one there.

@SnowBnuuy I think Brindleton would be a super cool world for it. I think the larger lots, at least for me, will be easier to build on now without seeming so daunting. The farming items, cows and coups take a nice chunk of land. @Akl500P awesome, love Windenberg as well and glad it's running smoothly in other worlds!

I am currently setting up Brindleton Bay for farms as well. I also thought that the large lot in Del Sol Valley would be an interesting location for a farm - just to mess with the neighbors. I want to put some llamas and chickens in Selvadorada, and chickens in Sulani.

@GwastenMica yes! Selvadorea would be perfect too and I love the idea of chickens on Sulani. The lot in Del Sol ? I actually love that idea... it's very SoCal to have that kind of random lot

Are you "cottage living" outside HOB?

I am planning to have a sim start a small urban farm with a chicken coop and a garden on the Daisy Hovel lot in the Foundry Cove neighborhood of Willow Creek. It’s the one to the right of the mystical tree next door to the BFF household. That lot seems perfect for that set up.

@Pamtastic72 oooo! I totally didn't think of that lot! Now that you mention that tree I'm suddenly curious about Glimmerbrook possibilities. Love the urban farm idea at Willow creek

My sims are living their cottage core dream on the islands of Sulani.

Oh, I plan to add at least one farm to Glimmerbrook too! Also, Windenburg as others have said, and Brindleton. Some will be specialized like in Oasis Springs I want to have a vineyard and a llama ranch. This pack combined with Seasons and the different climates in doing worlds opens up tons of gameplay possibilities!

Not yet, but Windenburg, Brindleton Bay and Sulani (see the beautiful screenshot by @FurAndYarn ) are perfect for farms! Can't wait to try them out.
