A new 11 day Quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission. These 11 day Quests are released once each fortnight on Friday. The actual time of the release can vary but today, the Quest was live on all platforms at the same time.
The Reward for the Collection Mission is a Goji Berry Tree. This sort of Reward is far easier to use in the Quest as you can use Watering Cans to speed production for ingredients. Furthermore, if you wish to skip the Collection Mission, you can buy the Goji Berry Tree for 9 RC in the Market.
Collection Mission:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
70 Yellow Chairs from Rice
50 Blue Chairs from Peacock Feathers
30 Red Chairs from Veggie Burgers
10 Green Chairs from Papaya
Note: I usually set the Animal or Machine that must deliver 50 items to make 130 or 140... from that, I usually obtain the number required for the Collection Mission. As for the one that requires 30, I set the Animal or Machine for that to produce 90 items usually. Where the Crop is concerned, results are variable always. You may obtain 1 item for every 3 crops harvested or you may receive only 1 item for every 4!
Crop List

Stove House Baked Rice Pudding Recipe
Strategy Tips
xxxxxxxxxxx
For farmers with the Fishing College/Fishery, do not cast a Net as you will need to use the Squid Hook. In fact, there are two separate fishing tasks that require a Rod and hook. Your Pets must open 8 Chests as one of the tasks, so do not open all of your Chests until you reach this part of the Quest.
For all players: I activate the Monkey Boost to decrease OP for Batch Production when I perform these quests. There are so many Batch Production tasks, including those required for the Collection Mission, that this boost becomes quite useful.
Note that many of the Island Tasks require Mastery. To produce the Silk on the Loom, you need 3 Star Mastery of the Loom.
You will need the Baked Rice Pudding Stove House Recipe.

Adventure in Laos Quest and Sinhs Collection Mission
A new 11 day Quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission. The traditional Quest sequence is 'Adventure in Laos'. The Collection Mission gives a Laab Stove House Recipe.
Note from Freyashawk: If any Facebook Groups wish to post a link to this site, they are welcome to do so, but I would hope that they would not simply copy information from this site without crediting me for it. To complete these Quests quickly, I use multiple resources including Rainbow Rain and often spend RC to skip a task if I cannot perform it in a timely manner otherwise. I do this in order to write this strategy guide for other farmers, so they can plan ahead. Please respect the work I do and at least give me credit. Many thanks.
I would like to thank the farmers who vote for HM. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contest. It is inspiring to me to have your support. I always write a post for farmers about the Contest and how to maximise their farms for Character votes. Where rank is concerned, however, I rely on YOUR votes. I always am very grateful to those who are willing to send their votes to HM. Freyashawk. I always hope that if the farm is able to rank in the top ten, it may direct new players to this guide. Beyond that, it simply makes me feel that my work here is appreciated. As you can see, I allow no advertising and the site is open to ALL users whether or not you are registered on Google. This game has become increasingly complex since I created this site over five years ago... I hope to be able to continue to add the new options as they are released. I do not allow comments on this site but if you need help with the game, feel free to find familyfarmseaside.blogspot.com on Facebook and send me a message there.
Strategy for new Farmers
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This particular 11 day Quest sequence should be a little easier for lower level Farmers than the last one. You do need access both to the Island and to the Sea Resort and a few premium Trees, but you do not need another Stove House Recipe apart from the one that is given as a Reward for completing this Collection Mission. The first half of the Quest gives a piece of furniture for Darryl's House as a special Reward and the second half gives a Purple Box Decoration for the Seaside Farm.
Do try to complete the Collection Mission even if you cannot complete the traditional Quest sequence. Once the Quest expires, you will be able to purchase the new Stove House Recipe from the Market directly but the cost will be in RC. If at all possible, complete the Collection Mission and obtain the Recipe without cost!
If you cannot complete all tasks, try to complete sets of four at least. After the Quest expires, it may appear as a Lighthouse Mission but you activate those in quarters. If you do not complete an entire quarter, you will be forced to complete all the tasks in that quarter again. Moreover, the Collection Missions are NOT included in the Lighthouse, so again, another reason to complete that within the 11 day period.
Note that the Clam Friendship Flower is a special timed reward that is given only if you register all three Collection Set items before the timer expires. It is a 'real' Friendship Flower at Level 1 and when crossbred will produce a Level 2 Flower. It is a good reward because it is a Friendship Flower that you can place in a neighbour's Botanic Garden without having spent RC and without having been fortunate enough to obtain a Friendship Flower in crossbreeding. It is one of the easier ways to complete your Botanic Garden Flower Book. The Friendship Flowers that are purchased for cash in special sales ordinarily do NOT produce Friendship Flowers when crossbred unless the developers have changed the nature of these! They will give both the host and the owner RC rewards and other Rewards as well and can produce a 'rare' Level 2 Flower like the Super Lily or Jagger Lips, but they do not produce Level 2 Cupcake, Level 2 Lollipop Flowers and so on.
Tip: Where a timed Quest has a large number of tasks that can use Batch Production, I recommend that you set your Monkey Boost to decrease the amount of OP used for any Animal or Machine.
Sinhs Collection Mission requires:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
70 Green Sinh from Chardonnay
50 Blue Sinh from Buffalo Milk
30 Yellow Sinh from Mayonnaise
10 Red Sinh from Nutmeg
Laab Stove House Recipe:
Ingredients: 1 Beef, 3 Rice, 1 Thai Fish Sauce, 1 Spinach, 5 Power
Place all ingredients and set timer for 25 seconds. Tap Finish as soon as Bronze Star activates.
Please note: Anne helped with the following Crop Lists and Batch Production Lists from the Tango version of the game. I have completed the Quest now myself, however, and have verified all of them.
Crop List
xxxxxxx
40 Pasture
40 Clover
40 Rice
50 Spinach
60 Lilies
40 Red Algae (Sea Resort)
Batch Production List
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
40 Beef
8 Orange Jam
40 Buffalo Milk (N.B. This is required for the Collection Mission as well, so make certain you perform this while you still need the Sinhs.)
40 Turkey
40 Wheat Bread
30 Lily Bouquets
50 Wool
60 Ostrich Feathers
4 Smoked Saury
40 Daffodil Sea Urchin Lamps (Sea Resort)
8 Tiramisu
8 Parrot Feathers (Island)
60 Ostrich Hats (Island)
Premium Trees:
Nutmeg Tree (Collection)
Red Pear Tree
Tangerine Tree
Chocolate Tree
Premium Trees can be purchased from the Tree Department of the Market, but you will find them randomly in the Daily Deals section for TC rather than RC and randomly in the Green Mystron Shop. If you are willing to spend RC, it often is a good strategy to look at the Special Sales Offers for a bundle that combines a Tree you will need for this Mission with a Theme decoration for the Farm Beauty Contest and some RC or Farm Aids. Ultimately you will need all of the premium Trees in this game. When a task consists of harvesting the Tree, you cannot buy the product from a neighbour but must have the Tree itself or use even more RC than the Tree would cost to skip the task.
High Level Tips
xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Strategy: If you wish to complete this early, although you do have 11 days, do not let your Pets open all Chests before you reach the task that requires 12 Chests opened. Do not cast a Net either if you have the Fishing College/Fishery unlocked as you will need to use the Dolphin Hook.

Football Championship Farm Beauty Contest
A new Farm Beauty Contest has been released. It is based on a World Cup Theme, and is named the Football Champion Contest. It features an old Base called the Farm Stadium Base. The three new Theme Decorations are included in the Theme Book.
This post is designed to allow you to gain as many Votes as possible from the four characters by maximising your own Farm to achieve the highest number of Votes in every Category.
The Farm Beauty Contest can be confusing and difficult for new player. Often, they are unaware of their own ability to increase the Votes from the 4 Characters to the point where they can obtain the Reward Decoration without any votes from their Neighbours. It requires a little planning. This post was created to show you how to do precisely that. Every aspect of the Farm Beauty Contest as well as the rules by which each Category operates is covered here.
Remember ALWAYS that the votes you receive from the Characters are based on your current 'Snapshot'. If you change your farm to obtain more votes, always take a new photograph or Character votes will not change! You do not need to take a photograph more than once, however, if you set up your farm for maximum Character votes at the very start.
One more point about the 'Snapshot'. If you play on more than one device, you may see your Photograph only on the device you were using when you submitted it. Do not fret about this! It remains valid for the duration of the Contest, even if you do not see it on your other devices.
Theme List now complete with values in terms of Theme Votes as well as where and how to obtain each. This Contest gives multiple vote values to many old Decorations and each of the new premium Decorations always give multiple numbers of votes for Theme.
The quickest way to maximise theme votes, therefore, especially for a new farmer, is to pay cash for one of the new premium decorations. They can be expensive, however, and for many farmers, earning the Reward Decoration for 4000 Votes in the Farm Beauty Contest is a long process that requires patience. Do be aware, however, that the premium Decorations not only count for multiple votes, but give special Rewards often in the form of RC, Yellow or Blue Mystrons as well as giving the best Gift Box both to the host and to the visitor when cleaned. Sometimes the judicious expenditure of cash in a 'free game' is worthwhile.
For a new farmer, the easiest way, however, to raise your Character vote total probably is by obtaining a couple of farm expansions and by raising your Landscape Point total to at least 2100. I need to confirm the precise number of points now required to maximise your Landscape Point votes, but it really is worth the effort and you need not spend any premium cash to do this. There are coin paths that will do the job. See my section on Landscape Points below.
Knowing where you can capitalise on your own Character Votes is key to success. For a farmer not to improve his/her farm for the Contest and then beg for votes from Neighbours ultimately is not the best strategy.... why not make the most of your own farm first? At least then you can guarantee that you win the Reward decoration in EVERY Farm Beauty Contest as Landscape Points remain constant as do Farm Expansions.
Note from Freyashawk:

I created this site 5 years ago shortly after the game first was released. I maintain and update it with all new Quests and new options, as well as posts like this to help players with every aspect of the game. I may not be the best farmer in the world, but if this site is useful to you, please vote for HM. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contest. Your vote for the farm is a vote of confidence for the site. It is not a matter of personal ego but rather the desire to make players aware of the site. When HM. Freyashawk places in the top ten in the Farm Beauty Contest, it reminds players that both this site and my Facebook groups for this game exist and, one hopes, can help them with any aspects of the game when needed.
Note to new Farmers
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I believe that the Farm Beauty Contest still is unlocked at Level 30. Even at that Level, it IS possible to maximise your Farm to obtain enough votes from the Characters to receive the Decoration Reward for having 4000 Votes.
You must start on the first day, however, with the best possible configuration, if you are at the lower levels and have not played long enough to have acquired many of the Theme items.
Tips: Where Landscape Points are concerned, try to find a Buddy who is at a high level who will send you paths as Gifts. If you are able and willing to spend RC, the Macaron Path and Pebble Paths can boost Landscape Point totals faster with less effort, but if you can place enough of the other Paths and make certain that your Decorations are within their sphere of influence, you can reach the necessary total for maximum votes in that category.
The theme list is to be found in the little red book in the Farm Beauty Contest Menu. I publish a list of all Theme items in my post with details as to where and how they can be obtained. Some Theme items originally were released as Mission Rewards. In many cases, these old Missions can be activated from the Lighthouse and you can obtain the Decoration without paying RC for it. Others can be purchased directly from the Gallery using Blue or Yellow Mystrons. Try to do it at the start, however whenever possible and make certain that, should you improve your farm's configuration, you take a new screenshot immediately! You do not have to take more than one screenshot during the course of the contest UNLESS you obtain items that improve the Character vote totals.
Every day counts! Count the total number of votes you receive from the four Characters at the end of the first day of the Contest and then see how you can improve this number if, multiplied by 20 (days), you do not have 4000 Votes as the projected total.

The Football Championship Farm Beauty Contest
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The old Farm Stadium Base is a Theme Decoration worth 2 votes per day from 3 of the 4 characters, meaning a potential 6 Votes per day for Theme.
You can own a total of 3 Farm Stadium Bases and can purchase it in the Market for 2000 Coins unfinished. When purchased, it will be unfinished. If you have a completed Base, you will not be able to purchase materials using the various Mystrons but if you never completed the first Base or never had one, you can find all materials in the Mystrons Shops.
The 2nd Base materials can be purchased in the form of a Farm Stadium Bag containing all materials. Cost is 20 RC. The 3rd Base materials can be purchased for 2000 TC in the same way.
OBTAINING THE REWARD DECORATION
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You need a total of 4000 Votes by the end of the Contest to receive the significant reward which is the Decoration. Almost any farmer should be able to maximise the Votes of the 4 Characters to obtain this even without a single vote from a Neighbour. You basically need a total of 200 Votes per day.
If you care about this, register your farm on the first day with maximum votes from the 4 Characters using the guidelines below.
For the Avatar, you need 300 votes per day, but with the recent changes in Character Votes, it is not impossible by any means to reach these totals from the Character votes alone. If you are receiving 300 votes per day from the four Characters, you will obtain the Avatar by the end of the Contest. To obtain 300 Votes per day from the Characters alone, you need to have reached Level 90. If all other categories give you the maximum number of votes, Level 80 - 90 will leave you short of 300 by only 1 Vote per day, however.
VOTE CATEGORY CHANGES
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
There are two significant changes from former Contests that became active in the last Contest. The first is the addition of Pets as a Vote category for Grandma in the form of 'pets with fancy equipment'. The second is a decrease in the totals for the Levels required for Dad's Vote for 'high level farm'.
Pet Category
xxxxxxxxxxx
The total number of Votes that can be given by Grandma for Pets is 12. Equipment (the collars, scarves and bow ties and so on) that you forge in the Factory each count for 1 Vote. Apparel counts for the other Votes and it does not matter if it is premium Apparel or Temporary Apparel or even duplicate Apparel. All will count equally. A Buddy Pet does NOT count. That was a glitch.
PETS MUST BE OUTSIDE THE PET HOUSE TO COUNT!
In other words, to gain 12 Votes from Grandma each day for the Pet Category, you need a total of 4 Pets, each wearing a piece of equipment and 2 pieces of apparel.
Some Pets cannot use three accessories. For example, the Kangaroo, although you can dress them in hats, do not have the second accessory and the Kangaroo cannot be equipped with any collar or other accessory that can be forged in the Factory. You therefore need to make certain that the four active Pets do not include a Kangaroo at the point in which the photograph is taken.
High Level Farms
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This has changed a few times through the years but I only know for certain that Freyashawk at Level 117 received 15/18 votes for 'high level farm' from Dad. At Level 120, HM. Freyashawk now receives 16/18 votes from Dad for 'high level farm'. This was NOT the case in the earlier Farm Beauty Contests. At Level 145, another player received 18/18 but I believe the actual level requirement for maximum votes in this category is lower.
Basic Rules
xxxxxxxxxx
It is your current photograph of your Farm or 'snapshot' that determines the Votes from the 4 Characters in the game every day. In previous Contests, a Theme decoration often would be counted if it had been placed on the Farm, even if it had not been registered yet. I believe this still is true, although it is a good idea to register all theme items as quickly as possible as you do receive rewards for registration.
Balance and variety always is the key in these contests. You need a variety of Crops, Animals, Trees, Machines and Theme Decorations on your farm to maximise the votes from the 4 Characters. If you design your Farm for maximum votes from the 4 Characters, you should not need ANY Votes from your Neighbours to obtain the Theme Decoration Reward that requires a total of 4000 Votes by the end of the Contest.
Duplicates never have counted where Crops, Trees, Animals, Machines and Decorations are concerned. I doubt that has changed. The only change really is that duplicates of Pet Equipment and Apparel DO count.
Crops
xxxxx
Have at least 16 different Crops on your Farm to obtain maximum Votes from Darryl for 'variety of Crops'. You may need less but Crops are easy to plant. They do not have to be mature when you take the photo to count.
Trees
xxxxx
Try to have 16 different types of Trees ON YOUR FARM when you take the photograph. Trees in the Tree Nursery will not be counted. Again, you may need fewer than 16 types but it does not hurt to be safe to obtain maximum votes from Grandma for 'enough Trees'.
Animals
xxxxxxx
Beehives and Butterfly Houses as well as the Bat House are considered Animals so every different TYPE of Beehive or Butterfly House counts but duplicates of any type of Animal do NOT Count. You should not need a total of 16 different types of Animal to obtain maximum votes from Felicia for Animals but again, if you have 16, use them.
Machines
xxxxxxxx
In Contests in the past, you only needed a total of 12 different machines to obtain maximum Votes from Dad for Machines but this may have changed. Players claimed that the Salad Machine gave 2 Votes instead of 1, but never confirmed that. In any case, duplicates do not count and if you can cram 16 onto your Farm before you take the photo, better to be safe than sorry.
Expansion
xxxxxxxxx
Both Felicia and Dad give Votes for 'Big Farms'. The good news is that you do not need many expansions on your original farm to obtain 16/16 from each of them. A farmer who does not have even the 23 x 23 Expansion will obtain maximum 16/16 votes in this category!
Theme
xxxxxx
Only Grandma does not vote for Theme, so you have Theme Votes from three out of four farm characters. The Theme List always can be found in the little Red Book in the Farm Beauty Contest Menu. I will include a list below as well with the price of each Decoration if you can purchase it and how to do so in each case.
Gallery Registration
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Register as many items as possible BEFORE you take your photograph to maximise this Category.
Both Darryl and Grandma give Votes for Gallery... furthermore, you obtain rewards from the Gallery when you register any item.
Landscape
xxxxxxxxx
'Beautiful Paths' is the term for your Landscape Point total. As three of the four Characters vote for this Category, it is a very good idea to have Paths on your Farm and place as many Decorations as possible within their 'sphere of influence'. I have covered the details of Paths and Landscaping elsewhere on this site. The better the Path, the more points you receive when Decorations are placed next to it or near it. The Macaron Path, Pebble Path and Snow Path each are worth 50 Landscape Points. The Snow Path no longer is available but the other two can be purchased in the Paths Menu for 1 RC each. The Wooden Path is worth 35 Landscape Points and costs 50000 Coins. Next best is the Forest Path worth 25 Landscape Points with a price of 15000 Coins. If you have Buddies, however, they can send Forest Paths and Stone and Flower Paths to you. To send, go to the Special Gifts Buddy Menu. You can send a Stone and Flower Path to a Buddy for 4000 Coins and a Forest Path for 12000 Coins. You actually can send a Macaron Path to a Buddy for 1 RC. There are Buddy Level requirements for sending some of the Special Gifts.
Remember that Landscape Point total is the total of the value of ALL the Paths PLUS the Decorations that are close enough to those Paths to boost Points.
In the past, you needed less than 2300 Landscape Points to achieve maximum... not certain what the current requirement is but here are some farmers who have less than that and their results in the current contest:
1059 Landscape Points: 16/24 Votes
1421 Landscape Points: 19/24 Votes
1484 Landscape Points: 20/24 Votes
1720 Landscape Points: 21/24 Votes
How to Maximise Landscape Points
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
First of all, you will not be able to move any Paths or perhaps even set any new Paths now if you have Pets roaming about your Farm. You must place all of them in the Pet House before you can set new Paths or move existing Paths, including Water Paths as well as those on the land.
Remember that placement of Decorations and Bases is everything. A Decoration or Base will give additional Landscape Points only if it is placed near a Path that has not used its maximum number of Points yet. For example, the Macaron Path can give a boost of 50 Landscape Points when Decorations are placed close to it. Once that amount is reached, however, piling more Decorations or Bases near it counts for nothing. Use the Move Tool to hover over various spots to see how your Landscape Points will be affected.
Pet Category
xxxxxxxxxx
This is a new Category and only Grandma votes for it. To gain 12 Votes from Grandma each day for the Pet Category, you need a total of 4 Pets, each wearing a piece of equipment and 2 pieces of apparel. A Buddy Pet on your Farm at the time you take your photograph will NOT count. That was a temporary glitch.
You can purchase apparel for a temporary period in order to take a snapshot that will give you more Votes for this category.
High Level Farm
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Only Dad gives votes for a 'high level farm'. At Level 117, HM. Freyashawk received only 11 Votes for this category in previous contests but now is receiving 16/18 at Level 120.
Here are some current results:
Level 40: 6/18 Votes
Level 47: 6/18 Votes
Level 48: 7/18 Votes
Level 63: 8/18
Level 76: 10/18 Votes
Level 79: 10/18 Votes
(Thanks to my neighbours who sent this information to me)
Theme Items
xxxxxxxxxxx
This Contest differs from many of the early Contests in that you can obtain multiple votes from the Characters by having Theme Decorations from the past, rather than being forced to buy the NEW premium Theme decorations to gain a high score from theme. I am listing the values below. I am not certain if this is intended or not, however, as well as the odd omission currently of the three NEW premium Decorations from the Theme Book.
N.B. Go directly to the Gallery to see if a Decoration is available for purchase now. I will add more information later about the Theme items that are available in the Lucky Wheel/Buddy Share Box. I have listed those that can be found currently in the Wheel but had no luck whatsoever landing on any of them when I spun my Wheel so am collecting prices slowly.
Please be aware that often you can find premium decorations both in a current special sale offer on the top right of your screen AND in one of the Boutique Shops in your Market. If you see the item in a special sale offer, however, you are best served by purchasing it in that way, as it usually is bundled with other items, including farm aids and/or Stove House Recipes and RC. These sale offers expire at different times so the items I have listed below may no longer be available in a special sale offer in a day or two.
Theme Decorations
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This time, there is one Tree that features in Theme in the form of the Linden Tree.
New Premium Decorations
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Screen with Football: 2 votes from each of 3 Characters daily if you have not reached maximum for Theme; that means a potential total of 6 votes per day for theme
Football Fan Jessie: 3 votes from each of 3 Characters daily if you have not reached maximum for Theme; that means a potential total of 9 votes per day for theme for this decoration alone
Football Fan Jason: 2 votes from each of 3 Characters daily if you have not reached maximum for Theme; that means a potential total of 6 votes per day for them for this decoration
In other words, if you have all three of the new premium Decorations, it can boost your Theme votes from the Characters to maximum probably without any other Theme decorations on your farm: these alone are worth 27 points for theme.
