Farming is an Artisan profession.[1]
Crops
Farmable crops have applications beyond basic food items.[3]
Livestock
Cooking ingredients
Livestock (and crops) are used to provide ingredients:[4]
Freehold farms
Alpha-1 freehold farm.[5]
Crops are intended in Ashes to be a rotational profession that is dependent on having the appropriate seedlings and/or any of the necessary tools.[6] – Steven Sharif
Freehold farms are workstation plots available for farming crops and livestock on freeholds.[7][7][8][9][10][4][11]
- Gathering and processing professions such as hunting, taming, and animal husbandry can benefit from having room for animals on a freehold.[12]
- Freehold permissions can be granted to allow other players to harvest resources on a freehold farm.[12]
- If farming and raising animals is important to you, then know that having room for this on your Freehold is a balancing act. Since Freeholds have space constraints, players will need to make choices about how much room they want to set aside for buildings, and where they want to do things like crop placement and rotation, and where to put livestock animals.[12]
 | Some of the following information has not been recently confirmed by the developers and may not be on the current development roadmap. |
- Artisan freehold features are also affected by adjacent terrain features. For example: building next to a river provides a nearby source of clean freshwater, and will have a positive effect on crops.[14]
Farmhands and NPC assistance
Based on node type and progression, players will be able to hire NPCs to work as farmhands on their freeholds. Players will be able to command these farmhands online in-game as well as offline via an application or web interface.[15]
- Crop Rotation Management.
- Plant or Harvest specific crops.
- Sell food or crops.
