Could this space be better used for strawberries? Yes.

We want to hear about your fanaticism over FarmVille. We want to see your farm. If we dig it enough, we’ll throw up to 400 Farm Cash your way.

Check out the rules below. Follow the few required steps closely and plow your way to 400 Farm Cash!

    I was wondering if there is any way we can have the option of buying a stallion? The reason why is that some of us are not able to be on our computers all day and we miss who has a stallion. Then we have to wonder all over the place looking for one and that could take up to 30 minutes or more. Which takes away from harvesting, planting and just enjoying our farm. One other thing is that I LOVE the dogs, but I think it is hard to get one for the fact you have to constantly take care of it. If we go on vacation, who is going to take care of the dog so it doesn’t run away. Can’t there be an option where you can have the dogs like the cats with no responsiblity? Just a few suggestions. Thanks!! ;)
