Alternative Ways to Get Apples

Import from the Trading Post

What are Apples?

Sustainable Food Resource

Apples are a substitute food source that are produced and harvested every year around September. However, it takes 3 years before these trees are fully grown. As a result, they can only produce a fraction of their maximum yield until they are fully grown.

Distributed as Food

Apples are automatically distributed to your settlement using food stalls. Apples take a while before they are fully grown, but over time it can be one of the ways you can attain a self-sustainable colony.

Used to Upgrade Burgage Plots

A steady supply of Apples will also lead to more food stalls in the Marketplace fulfilling the requirement for upgrading a Burgage Plot.

Can be Exported for Regional Wealth
