Gift

A gift is an item that is sent by a farmer to their neighbors.

Sending a gift costs nothing to either player but a farmer may only send one gift to his neighbors every four hours.

Some gifts are available to buy at the market (these gifts costs FV Cash); however, most gifts are unique, as they cannot be obtained any other way. By reaching higher levels, a farmer can send differen variety of gifts.

A Farmer can receive gifts by receveing from his neighbours; winning prizes; winning ribbons; collect from Post Wall. There are special gifts that just are available by winning ribbons or other prizes (like co-op jobs prizes). Every single gift you receive is put on the Gift Box.

Sending a gift in general

When a player initially opens FarmVille for the first time in a day, they are taken to the gifts page. Here, they may choose a gift to send to any of their neighbors. If they wish to, a player may return to this page later. To send a gift, the player must select the desired gift from the list. Next, the player must click the send button, which will take them to a list of their Facebook friends and FarmVille neighbors. The player may then select any friends that he wishes to send the gift to. A farmer can send a gift every four hours to any Facebook Friend. Alternatively, select a neighbor and send a gift specifically them

Sending a specific gift

Since all gifts do not always show up on the list all the time, there may be times when you can not send what you would like unless you know the name of the gift as used in the gift link and how to form the URL for the gift.

The URL for a specific gift is http://apps.facebook.com/onthefarm/gifts_send.php?gift=cow

Usually the gift name is obvious. For example, the Bottle for building the Nursery Barn is bottle. However, sometimes the name isn't so obvious as the following table shows:

Special Delivery

See more at Special Delivery Box.

When you recive a Special Delivery Box, the "secret" gift there will be a Building material. E.g. if you are construting a Duck Pond, you'll receive or 2 Shovels or a Watering Can. If you have 2 buildings that need materials, the gift will be a material to the older building. If you don't have nothing building, then you recive a random gift.

Thank you gift

When farmers accept a gift, they have the possibility to send a Thank you gift to the sender. A Thank you gift is identical to the gift you just recived.This is a good opportunity to get gifts that the farmer himself can send, but which cannot be sent by neighbors. This is important if a farmer needs collectables or building material for the horse stable and has only few neighbors.
