Okay...less than 300 food left and the trees re-plenish themselves a teeny bit every so often but it's not going to cut it--I still have 20,000 tech til I can get my level 2 faction and therefore get the herb and I don't know if I'm going to make it

Don't forget the honey, Amelia. Also, the villagers will last longer than you might think.

Honey, trees, mushrooms, Cheif...hang in there, you'll get it!

yeah but now my trail ran out. i mean until big fish they might die. (tree is grown)

Have you fixed the lift yet? It may provide some help. Other wise, just leave the game on and hunt down those mushrooms!

Mushrooms come out after rain and there's a simple way of getting the game to rain whenever you want!

i use that method a lot. also put game to slow when it rains to get more mushies. hehe

how do you make it rain?

Food is difficult to get at first, but it seems once you have the orchard, it is a little easier. Still kind a hard cause the trees don't always have fruit on them.
