I have read several replies from folks who want to sell part of their overstocked items. I do too! But this is what I do in the meantime. When I notice that my olive oil or chocolate, is in the 5 figures, I stop storing it and leave it in the factory. I let it build up at the factory until I have enough to use. Then I sell all of what is in storage. The upon my return, I store what is at the factory. It is a bit of a pain and I too would like an easier way, but hey it works for now.

That would be a good idea given peanuts and walnut snacks are already available. But with so many varieties of nuts maybe a dedicated facility for them is in the pipeline. Judging from what's happened previously most new trees/crops end up being used for one or more facilities. With 9 new crops and 7 new trees for this release the devs obviously have a number of new facilities in the works.

Some observations, though...

1. Still no new production items for our existing facilities, particularly for those facilities that are grossly underused. But I live in hope!

Me too. But I'm not holding my breath. Hoped for a general purpose restaurant/diner -- one which served breakfasts, lunches consisting of burgers and other sandwiches and salads and soups, and dinners -- for a very long time and even heard via the "grapevine" that Raul was considering such a facility. Didn't happen and, with separate facilities for breakfasts and dinners, not going to happen. Me thinks the same is true, basically, regarding any significant additions to the products of existing facilities.
Coming out with new specialized ones is obviously a strategy that is, income wise, more advantageous to Slashkey. Not faulting them for being good enterprising business men and women, though.

Re the appearance of the Essential Oils Factory which I just saw on a FT Neighbor's farm: grrrr!!!
In fact a number of the designs in recent updates are edging into the fantasy land style.

Great update and thanks so much....but can anyone tell me can the Rhubarb be used for anything. By what I can see its just a stand alone crop which is fine but thought I would check in case I'm going blind

Thanks for the new inovations. The release says that the extended tool box "displays every single tool in the game". And very handy it is too. However, I can't find the log truck. Has this been forgotten? It would be extremely convenient to have it included, please. Great work.
