One of my trees in the orchard won't replenish itself, the other two do with no problem. Can someone help?!!

Maybe that one tree has the villager's favorite fruit!  Seriously though, it's most likely that your farmers are picking fruit off that tree before it registers. As well as clicking on the tree often like Laurence suggested to see what it says, also keep an eye on your food bin. You may see the difference there.  Marcey

Actually I have 952 fruit and I don't let my villagers pick the fruit by themselves!! I don't have my 2nd level in faction yet so I always make sure my villagers aren't ticked off to be farmers until I can fish. It is my first tree and I have completed the orchard puzzle and both other trees have replenished themselves, one has replenished twice. I am nearly at tech points for level two and this tree has not replenished itself once!!

I have noticed that villagers, once they have learned to farm, will pick fruit on thier own. If you are playing, you can stop them...but if the game is closed they will go ahead and pick away on there own. If you are close to finding another food source, with 952 fruit, your village should be fine and able to sustain...if the population isn't too high. And, I don't think the villagers get terribly 'ticked-off'  Well, they may complain a bit but it will be to some random villager, tree, statue...then, back to work!

Actually I have 952 fruit and I don't let my villagers pick the fruit by themselves!! Yes, please, tell me how you have any food at all if you never trained any farmers? Because the only way to keep them from harvesting is to either never train a farmer, or to wait for all your farmers to die. Even without being checked for farming, if they have the skill they will still strip trees - perhaps not as zealously, though. By 'replenish,' do you mean boosting all the way back up to 1000 fruit? It sounds like you might be. That is an event-based boost. The trees get boosts of 111 fruit every 3 hours - there's no other regular replenishment, only event-based refills.

Yes I do mean boosting up to 1000. I don't train any of my villagers to be JUST farmers. They all get trained to Trainee level in building, farming and research at the start of the game. I currently have 12 villagers (I got an event where I had a barrel of babies which were actually two ten year olds who are now 15). I have three Master builders and three Master Researchers and one Adept Researcher. The rest are kids, I have a child chief too. Three of my villagers are adept farmers because I wanted to solve the weather dance puzzle. I made them adept by dropping them on the hive but not allowing them to reach the food bin with the honey. One is also a Master researcher and the other two Master builders ( both are runners too!!) At the moment I have 2568 food, three trees at 960 and 360 in the hive. All done by allowing the kids to collect mushrooms by pausing the game and dropping at least three kids on the mushrooms. I have been lucky enough to get a lot of red mushrooms in this game which helps a LOT! I have now got fishing and I occasionally send someone off to fish to keep the food stocked past 2500. With such a small tribe I find it easy to keep track of them so if I notice anyone going off to harvest honey or pick fruit I stop them! Anyway, my tree did come back to life a few hours ago so all is good !! I've played a few games where I try to keep just the kids responsible for food and so far I haven't lost anyone to starvation!
