Farm Town is one of Facebooks most addicting games.  A person can find themselves spending hours playing the game without even realizing it. Even though there are no tangible rewards for succeeding in this game, you still can't get enough of it. Everyone wants to get to the next level so they can make their farm better. But how do you do that? The secret is to stay active on your farm.

Everytime you plant something on your farm in Farm Town, you will gain XP points. Every time you plow on your farm, you also get XP points. So basically you really need to keep active on your own farm in order to keep getting xp points.

The time may come, however, when you already have plants growing and your harvest isn't ready. If that is the case, you will need to check out the Marketplace. Alot of people don't know that you can go there and get hired to work on someone else's farm. some people will hire you to harvest. For harvesting on someone else's farm you will not gain any xp points. That's why whenever you go to the marketplace, you will see so many people requesting plowing jobs.

The thing many of them do not think about is that right after you harvest something, there is automatically a plow job available. So, the best thing to do, is go ahead and take the plow jos, get the money, and then request to plow the field you just harvested. After you finish the job you were hired for, you can head back to the marketplace, and do it all over again. You can work all day long if you want, as long as there are people to hire you.

If you have a lot of money already, and you really just want the xp points, another thing you can do is simply plant crops in your farm that will be ready alot sooner. That way you can plow, plant and harvest your farm more than once every day. There are seeds that you can plant that will be ready in just 4 hours, you can go three rounds in one day if you choose, even more if you don't want to sleep.

So, getting xp points isn't too difficult on Farm Town. All you have to do is stay active, and keep working. You will get to that level you've been reaching for, and the farm you've always wanted.
