hello

You need to indicate spoiler in the topic line so people know to avoid reading this post if they want to figure things out on their own.

there is a big patch of leaves at the south end of the large dirt patch that your builder(s) can clear

Thanks so much...and I will remember about the Spoiler from now on. Thanks again.

Knksmiles, I keep looking for that patch of leaves to clear up u mentioned and I can't seem to find it. Any more information would be great...ta ..Liz

Press 3 on your number pad and you'll see a patch of grass. just above that, where the wall and the cliff meet, there's a big leafy bush. Drop a villager on that to start.
