No,not in THAT sense!

I've been stuck for ages because of my interpretation of a single word: - sources.

Y'see, I don't know if this is an American vs English problem (in that I speak English and you speak American), but to me a 'food source' is where the food is found so the garden is one source and,if fishing was an option, that'd be another, if there were chickens and eggs could be collected, that'd be a third. The other way it could be interpreted is synonymous with 'type', so apples are once source, carrots another, pears a third (they don't get much protein, nor any iron, zinc, B12, Ca, Se, K, Mg, or just about any other nutrient, surprised they've not all dropped dead from malnutrition!), which is what I thought you might have meant when person number 6 moved in but, until I read the FAQs, I was genuinely mystified as to where I was going to find a seventh. To me seven carrots is NOT seven food sources.

As I have plenty of apples, oranges and pears as well as 6 tomatoes, four potatoes and three carrots, and my beauty bar is at 75%, I don't understand why nobody else has moved in. If each item is a source, then I've probably got at least thirty, counting the fact my fruit trees are laden.

If you need seven of one type then please stop using the word 'source', as I've said, seven carrots isn't seven sources. I need clarification on what your definition of a 'source' is because, evidently, it's not the same as mine.
