[Springtide, next year] New Faire Service - Dry-It (preserve produce as a trophies)
Posted 2024-06-12 14:06:19 (edited) #1215562 I didnt see anything like this in suggestions, so hopefully it isnt a repeat! Currently all the produce we recieve is supposed to either disappear at the end of the event, or be sold for GP in the end. But its kind of upsetting because I would like to preserve some of my "champion" babies? I dont know if its just me, but I have grown quite attached to my prize-winning Strawberries. I would like an ability to Dry our produce in order to preserve it! It would feature a separate vendor at the faire offering Drying services. It could be called Herbarium Workshop perhaps? Some species of rodents are known for their well-preserved winter stocks, so one could be offering to dry our produce for some GP! (feel free to suggest what species you think fits best!) For a fee of GP (depending on item quality, 50 GP for lowest and 10 GP for the highest quality items; reverse-dependant because every farmer knows, the higher quality product is, the easier it is to preserve it without it going bad!) the vendor would dry you your chosen produce, giving you an actual Hoard item that you can keep and store in your inventory. Perhaps, like Lucky Dip, it would be limited to 1 item per hour, or half-hour? So it isnt abused in mass, but rather is something you need to carefully time and plan (like real-life drying requiers time and dedication to perform right). You would submit an item, and wait the needed time for the vendor to dry it for you. Once the time is up, you can collect your dried trophy! Resulting objects could be Other like many unusable items. It would feature the SAME art as we've got on the items already (so no need for new art) and be called "Dried X" (to tell them apart from February event Flowers and edible things like Carrot etc). They could even later be used for crafting, would be very neat to have some ingredients that you actually need to "grow" to obtain - would provide an interesting new challange!	Mad Hyena #7152

This could be an interesting expansion to the event next year. These dried items could be crafted into the full decor items afterwards (perhaps through recipes dropped by lucky dip?).
In any case, support!

full support! I'd love if they could be used to craft decors or maybe even for a slightly bigger fee they would be traded directly for a decor of that specific plant? I just wanna see my wolves holding flowers :)
