Cottage Living: Prep and Plans

So, I've seen discussions in in other threads about how it will be too easy to make money quickly from farming. We already have a very easy/lucrative option, which is selling directly from the plant. We will also be able to sell our produce individually from either the existing sales tables in the games, or potentially a new similar type of object, which would likely make it much slower/harder to earn money.

But I'm playing around with another idea as well. I think I might have my various farming sims regularly gift their produce and animal products to Bernard, my grocer. Then he can simply go around once a rotation and pay them a set sum, since we have the option to pay cash to other sims. Then when you go to Bernard's little shop, you will be able to buy apples grown by Alice, honey made by Hannah, grapes grown by George, eggs harvested by Emily, etc. (I'm trying to remember whether produce actually shows who grew it, and I think maybe it doesn't, but some of other products do, so I'm hoping at least the eggs and milk will.)

Anyway, I think that will give the shop a nice country store vibe, and also provide steady but not extravagant income for my farmers.

I don’t think produce does show who grew it unless they change that. I have a grocery store that I downloaded and changed up a bit, I have already cooked food and baked goods and sell produce from a table in the store ( usually the perfect stuff ), and then also sell produce in those upright things you can store many pieces of produce. I’m glad we are going to be able to buy from a stall though, and order food online, hopefully the produce will be a more reasonable price for those that don’t want to garden.
