Story

Sara works in a nursery and loves her job. But one day the owner Jim tells her that they will have to close the nursery. In order to save the nursery, Sara asks Jim to let her use an unused plot of land where she plans to grow vegetables and tend animals. She hopes the profit from selling the produce will save the nursery.

Players have to help Sara complete customer orders by harvesting produce such as clovers, wheat, corn and tomatoes and tend animals such as cows, sheep, bees, and ostriches. There are also ketchup machine, bread machine, jam machine, etc. At the end of each week Sara has the opportunity to sell any extra produce in the Farmer's Market. Depending on performance, players also have the opportunity of winning trophies for completing week 1, not getting stung by bees, completing an order super fast, finishing expert mode without failing an order, etc.

Once Sara completes all the levels, Jim tells her that the nursery is saved and makes her a partner.
