More Info from Farmville:
“We’ve heard some of you are feeling a bit cramped on your farm. FarmVille is proud to introduce STORAGE! Now you can decorate to your heart’s content while knowing that you have a place to store your stuff. By the way, have you seen the new Country Fair items? Check ‘em out and see why the sheep are having such a blast! ”

How does a Farmville Storage Works:
• You can store your items in the barns and tool sheds
• Each barn and tool shed has an individual capacity amount (for example, a red barn can store 6 decorations)
• When you click on an item, you will see an option to move it to storage
• Once you have moved an item to storage, you can right click on any barn or tool shed to see your current items in storage
• Note: all your items are stored in one central location and can be accessed by barn, tool shed, or by clicking the new storage icon in the toolbar

Stumbled this from one of the Farmville [addicts] bloggers. Farmville Mystery Box sure gives [though im not sure of other surprises] a lot of cool items and prizes. One of these is the Farmville Donkey which you cannot purchase in FV$. Farmville Donkey rewards farmville users with 500 XP instant! I wonder what a farmville donkey yields. Keep playing to win other GREAT and UNIQUE prizes!

On the other hand, to earn the farmville King of Compost, farmville farmers need to harvest farmville fertilized crops. The yellow ribbon requires 75 harvested farmville fertilize crops.

"All new Mystery Box! A new Mystery Box loaded with EXCLUSIVE ITEMS was released today in FarmVille! Every box is a winner - Crack one open today!"

The latest Farmville roaming animal added in Farmville is the Wild Turkey. The Farmville Wild Turkey is said to be escaping from her cage on the turkey farm and is hoping to find someone to protect her over the holidays.

Would you be kind enough to give this turkey (read: wild turkey) a place on your Farm?

Developers of the Farmville application Zynga has released the second version of the "Sweet Seeds for Haiti" to further support thousands of childrens and families in Haiti. The first part of the Sweet Seeds for Haiti (Sweet Potatoes) was a success and over $583,000 was donated.

Sweet Seeds of Haiti part 2 (Sweet Corn Seeds) can be purchased for 25 FV$ and can be harvested in 6 hours. Good thing about this Sweet Corn crop is that it never withers.

Zynga offers a special item, the Sweet Seeds gift flag designating that you were a donor for the Sweet Seeds for Haiti campaign. You can send this flag to your Farmville neighbors, otherwise it will be locked for everyone else.

Zynga will be donating 50% of the proceeds to feed impoverished children and their families in Haiti.

From Zynga
Where our contribution will go and how it will be used?

With a population of just over ten million people, Haiti is the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere and the 7th poorest in the world. Fifty-four percent of its people live on less than one dollar a day; 80% live on less than two dollars. Zynga’s mission of connecting the world through games is enhanced by our opportunity to support the health and education of these children and their families.

In addition to the all new Farmville Chicken Coop feature, a new Farmville animal is added! The Farmville Brown Chicken may be obtained from the premium brown mystery egg or from one of your farmville neighbors.

Another Farmville building with a purpose!

Much like the Farmville Dairy Farm, the chicken coop is a storage place for your Farmville Chickens! The Chicken Coop is available in the Farmville Market for 5,000 coins. Chicken Coop can also be gifted to/from one of your Farmville neighbors!

Finally, after long long long time of waiting, Farmville land expansion upgrade is finally here! Plus the all new chicken coop and improved mystery boxes and items! Happy Farming!

From Farmville:

Time for some breathing room! The 22x22 Land Expansion is here at last along with the all new Chicken Coop! Chicken Coops are a fun way to store your chickens and give your friends some cool stuff. If you're lucky, you might even get a new Mystery Egg! We’ve also released the next version of Sweet Seeds for Haiti, whic...h previously raised more than $575,000 for charity. Check it out Farmers!

Farmville recently added a new efficient way of selling Farmville Gift Items. You need not to accept all your gifts one by one and then sell them after. You can now sell all farmville items directly from your gift items box or giftbox! You can also sell them all at once by clicking the "Sell All" button.

Farmville recently added all new fall-themed items! The Farmville red maple tree and red maple leaves, Farmville hay stack and hay roll. These new items can only be gifted, meaning you cannot purchase them from the Farmville market, you can only receive them [red maple tree, red maple leaves, hay stack and hayroll] from your neighbors.
