Hearthvale
Inherit your grandmother’s overgrown orchard in Willowmere Valley. Plant, mend, befriend — and let four gentle seasons do the rest.
Blossom drifts over the east orchard. Plant early — the rain is kind this time of year.

Life in Hearthvale
Six ways to spend a day.
No timers rushing you, no fail states. Just chores that feel like play and a valley that notices what you do.
Tend the land
Clear brambles, coax the soil back, and plant in rhythm with the year — every crop keeps its own window.
Befriend the valley
Twenty-eight villagers with routines, grudges, birthdays, and favorite pies. Gifts are remembered.
Cook & preserve
Turn a summer glut into winter comfort: jams, pickles, and 140 recipes for the grange potluck.
Fish four waters
River, pond, tide pool, and the winter ice hole. Some fish only rise when it rains.
Rebuild the grange
Restore the old hall room by room and watch the festivals come back to the square.
Let seasons matter
Snow closes the mountain pass. Spring floods the low field. Plan around the weather, not against it.
