FarmVille Winter Wonderland Chapter 2 Goals: Everything you need to know

We've already speculated that FarmVille's fourth farm, the Winter Wonderland, will offer early access to paying players, but what if you decide not to pay to play this new farm early? What if you wait until everyone's allowed to get in for free? Will all of the farm's prizes be gone? Of course not! I looks like a massive set of Chapter 2 goals will be the first ones seen by free access players, and the true second Chapter for those that pay to get in early. By massive, I mean that this series has a whopping 12 goals, but will also likely come with a hefty time limit. FarmVille Freak has found the full details for these 12 goals, so let's get started on our own look of what to expect.

Winter Welcome

    Get 6 Fire Logs
    Harvest 60 Gingerbread
    Discover one Small Snow Treasure


This Snow Treasure feature will see you collecting items from friends to help thaw out or forcibly remove presents that have been trapped inside blocks of snow and ice. Finishing this first goal give you 100 XP, 2,500 coins, the frame to an Orchard and a Winter Tractor.

Winter Warmth

    Get 6 Hot Sparks
    Harvest 60 Iced Rice
    Complete one Winter Animal Pen


This Winter Animal Pen is themed appropriately with lights and garland, and it will likely function to hold all of the "holiday" versions of animals that we'll receive in these goals, or even purchase from the store. Your prizes for this goal are 200 XP, 2,500 coins and a Le Emperor Penguin.

Those Who Help Them Elves

    Get 6 Colorful Lights
    Make 2 Ginger S'mores
    Harvest 1 Le Emperor Penguin


The Ginger Smores will be crafted inside the new crafting building in Winder Wonderland, the Sweet Shoppe, but the exact bushels required are still a mystery. Ginger S'mores require three Gingerbread, three Iced Rice and two Sunflower Bushels each. For finishing this goal, you'll receive 300 XP, 2,500 coins and a Frosty Mini Horse.

Elf Trouble

    Get 6 Shiny Brass Knobs
    Harvest 60 Gummi Bears
    Harvest 1 Winter Animal Pen


Reward: 400 XP, 2,500 coins, and a Blue Snow Fort

Go North, Young Elf!

    Get 6 Crystal Whatzits
    Harvest 60 Candied Yams
    Harvest 1 Frosty Mini-Horse


Reward: 500 XP, 5,000 coins and a Snowflake Tree

Gearing Up

    Get 7 Wooden Gears
    Make 2 Candied Apples
    Harvest 1 Snowflake Tree


Reward: 400 XP, 2,500 coins and a Snowball Catapult

Spin Cycle

    Get 7 Spinning Whirl-Its
    Harvest 60 Gingerbread
    Harvest 1 Le Emperor Penguin


It's likely that all of these crop requirements will take more than one batch to create, as it looks like plot limits will be carried over to this farm, and I highly doubt we'll be allowed to plant 60 crops right off of the bat (at least, not without expanding our land first). Your rewards for this goal will be 500 XP, 5,000 coins and an Arctic Peacock.

A Flung Flinger

    Get 8 Flange Flingers
    Make 3 Ginger Smores
    Harvest 1 Arctic Peacock


Reward: 500 XP, 5,000 coins and a Snow Gopher

Wrap It Up

    Get 9 North-Polarized Goggles
    Harvest Polar Train Station
    Harvest 60 Candied Yams


The Polar Train Station looks to function just like the Lighthouse Cove, in that it will be repairable, and also ready to be harvested once every day. Your rewards for this goal are going to be 500 XP, 5,000 coins and a Frigimetric Encabulator.

At this point, you'll have finished the "normal" goals for this Chapter 2 series, and will be ready to move onto three Bonus Challenges. Yes, Bonus Challenges have returned from Lighthouse Cove, but it doesn't look like these will be too difficult, so long as you use our guide to plan ahead.

By the Fire (Bonus Challenge 1)

    Get 10 Hot Chocolate
    Harvest 60 Glacial Roses
    Harvest 2 Winter Animal Pens


See? It's not that bad of a goal, so long as you build a second Winter Animal Pen just as soon as you land in this new farm. Since many of your in-game neighbors will also be frantically building new items, gathering extra building materials shouldn't be as difficult as usual either. For finishing this goal, you'll receive 500 XP, 5,000 coins and an Ice Cave.

White Snow (Bonus Challenge 2)

    Get 11 Snow Polish
    Make 3 Candied Yam Pies
    Master Le Emperor Penguin to 1-star


When trying to decide what makes this particular goal a challenge, I'd have to speculate that the Candied Yam Pies are going to be a Level 2 or higher dish within our new crafting building. Unfortunately, that can't be known for sure until the farm launches. Once you finish this goal, you'll receive 500 XP, 5,000 coins and an Arctic Explorer Gnome.

Super Conductor (Bonus Challenge 3)

    Get 12 Gold Pocketwatches
    Harvest 2 Orchards
    Master Frosty Mini-Horse to 1-star


Again, so long as you work on two Orchards when first given the opportunity, this goal shouldn't give you too much trouble. That is, so long as you're not running out of time when you finally do reach this goal (considering that you've already completed 11 goals before it). If you can make it to the very end of this Chapter 2 goal series, you'll receive 1,000 XP, 10,000 coins and a Gilded Holiday Sleigh.

It will be interesting to see if we're given cross-farm storage to bring extra Winter / Christmas items over to our new farm, but either way, this goal series will give us plenty of animals and decorations to already flesh out the look of our new land. We'll make sure to bring you a complete look at any future goals in this new farm just as soon as we know more.

FarmVille Aviary Goals: Everything you need to know

Attention all farmers! The FarmVille Aviary has started rolling out to some users this afternoon, and as we told you earlier this week, the new building comes with a full set of goals. We've got a guide to completing these goals right here, so even if you haven't been able to start building your own Aviary, you'll at least know what to expect.

For the Birds!

    * Get 6 Bunches of Bird Seed
    * Place 1 Aviary
    * Harvest 3 Aviary Birds


Of course, this new building deals with with birds, and as such, you'll need to start harvesting birds (Ducks will probably be the easiest for most farmers) to complete this third task. As for the Aviary, you'll receive a base once the update has rolled around to your game, so just clear out some land on your farm and place it to finish that. For the Bird Seed, you'll need to ask your friends to send you some bunches by posting a general news item to your wall. The rewards for completing this first goal are 50 XP, one Red Bill Duck and 2,500 coins.


Bird Watching

    * Get 6 Binoculars
    * Buy 1 Bird House
    * Harvest 100 Vegetable Crops


As usual, it doesn't matter which kind of vegetable crop you grow, so feel free to plant some of the shortest-growth-time vegetables available to you to quickly finish this off. As for this Binocular collection task, you'll be able to send out requests directly to your friends, asking them for help. For finishing this goal, you'll receive 50 XP, 5 Animal Feed and 2,500 coins.

No Birds in Last Year's Nest

    * Get 6 Bird Nests
    * Complete the Aviary
    * Plant 3 Basic Apple Trees


This goal takes us back to general news feed requests to collect these Bird Nests. While you're waiting for them to arrive, you can plant the Apple Trees, which cost just 325 coins each to purchase from the store. To build the Aviary, you'll need to collect ingredients, and you can find our complete guide to building the habitat right here. Finish this goal and you'll receive 50 XP, 5 Animal Feed and 2,500 coins.

Free as a Bird!

    * Get 9 Bird Toys
    * Harvest the Aviary
    * Harvest 3 Basic Apple Tress


Here's something different: instead of being able to immediately delete those trees you previously purchased, you'll need to wait for them to be ready to harvest. You'll want to make sure that these trees are not in an Orchard before you harvest them though, as harvesting trees that are in an Orchard will not count for this goal. For these Bird Toys, you'll need to ask your friends through individual gift requests to earn them. For finishing this goal, you'll receive 50 XP, 4 Swan Geese and another 2,500 coins.

Whistle While You Work

    * Get 9 Bird Whistles
    * Raise a Baby Bird
    * Harvest 30 Basic Cranberries


Cranberries take 10 hours to grow, so you'll want to plant them pretty quickly to not be too delayed by this goal. While you're waiting for them to grow, you can post a general news item requesting the Bird Whistles. As for the Baby Bird, you can either claim one from your friends' wall posts, or wait until your Aviary is ready to collect from with the chance of receiving a Baby Bird in the process.

The Swing of Things

    * Get 9 Bird Swings
    * Master Swan Goose to Level 1
    * Harvest 50 Fruit Crops


Again, it doesn't matter which kind of fruit you harvest. You'll collect the Bird Swings via individual requests to friends. For finishing this goal, you'll not only finish this Aviary goal series, but you'll also receive 50 XP, one Lady Amherst Pheasant and 2,500 coins.

With this new Aviary building, we've passed the halfway point in the game's new breeding building feature, and we'll make sure to let you know when additional animal breeding buildings launch in the game.
