Camping Season Quest and Harmonica Collection Mission

Note from Freyashawk: Farmers never should feel obligated to visit neighbours.  Any farmer receives rewards by visiting YOU, especially if you have invested in premium decorations.  They receive coins, XP and a gift box reward for each visit they make.

There is a common misconception now about visits.  Global chat can be filled with posts by farmers who threaten to delete players who fail to visit them.  Amazingly they can be high level farmers!  Do they not understand that their visits to you give them more rewards than your visits to them?  It is heartbreaking when players beg forgiveness for not visiting because of illness or a death in the family.  Shame on those who bully others, whether they are in their teens or octogenarians.  It is so unnecessary and fosters a toxic attitude in this farming game.  I kind of suspect these farmers do not realise how unpleasant their threatening posts are.  People can become obsessive about games.  
I have a busy morning.  It may be late in the day before I complete this post.  

Thanks to all who voted for HM. Freyashawk in the Beauty Contest.

Riddle solutions:
