Book excerpt: Mr. Fred used to be an unhappy office manager, until he received a letter from his long lost uncle MacDonald, who gave him an amazing challenge: Fix up the old family farm, and it would become his inheritance! Looking for a change of pace, Mr. Fred quickly became Farmer Fred, and took up his uncle's challenge. He now has one year to learn how to live off the land, restore his family's ancient farm to working order, and make enough money to secure his future. Arriving at his family's farm, Farmer Fred finds it in disrepair. The fences are broken, the farmland is full of overgrown trees, the land needs to be tilled and planted, the greenhouse is broken, and there is so much more work to be done! Adjusting to his new life, Farmer Fred decided to keep a daily journal, detailing his efforts towards restoring the family farm and helping the local community. Day 15: 2300 dollars It's my third week on the farm and everything is going well. A little slow, but definitely well. In my first few days on the farm, I've focused on clearing land and building enough materials to begin rebuilding the farm and restocking its equipment. I must have cut hundreds of trees and gathered many logs of wood! I've also started exploring the mines and mining for copper ore. Now, this week, I've found a section of the mine that has iron ore, and I can't wait to mine some. I will need iron ore to make iron bars, which I can shape into gates or use to craft equipment such as barrels to age vegetables into sauce, wine, or juice. I start the day by watering my plants. I know this can be boring to do every single morning, but I know that hard work pays off! While I'd love to spend the day relaxing or fishing, I know this won't help me rebuild the farm, so I head over to the local mines again. I follow my map to the section of the mine on the 40th floor where I found some iron ore on the previous day. I begin prospecting the ore and digging into the wall and find a few pieces of ore. I continue on into the mine, reaching the 45th section of the mine. Instead of going deeper at this point, I head back up to the 40th floor, while searching for even more ore. This extra exploration pays off, as I found a few more pieces of iron ore! At around 9pm I head back home. I had a great day of work in the mines and I am tired. Luckily, I brought several fruit snacks and granola bars to keep my energy up. I decide to try to fish some more in my small pond. Although I don't catch any big fish, I do improve my fishing ability and my comfort with using a rod. The moon quickly rises in the sky, and it is now midnight. I know I need to get some sleep, so I head to bed. Today was a great day!
