The Scarecrow Stand is a three-week crafting quest that starts August 30th, 2016 through September 20th, 2016. Marie is having trouble with birds attacking her crops, and wants you to make some scarecrows for her.
Building[]
The player must first place the unbuilt stand, which is free. They are then taken to the build screen. The materials are:
- 3 - 10 Sets of Old Clothes (Post)
- 3 - 10 Scarecrow Frames (Ask)
- 3 - 10 Bundles of Hay (Ask)
Amount of materials may vary. Each item can be bought for 2 Farmbucks each. Alternatively, players may buy the finished building for 16 - 54 Farmbucks.
After all materials are gathered, at least 2 Neighbors are needed to complete the building. One it is finished, players will be able to access the quest's main menu. Patches can be collected before the building is finished, but the stand needs to be complete in order to use them.
The Quest[]
The currency for this quest is called Patches. There are many ways to collect them:
- Craft the special goods presented in the main menu.
- Completing the quests in Birds Away!.
