Farming EP or GP...

Not sure if this was stated, but I'm craving a farm GP or EP with all sorts of animals you can interact with on your lot.
-Rural world setting with larger lots and expanded.
-Cows, chickens, goats, sheep, horses... AND FINALLY A REAL LLAMA.
-Farming tools for land (either simple ones to start and then build up to better ones like tractors).
-Different crops.
-Barns.
-And if we get seasons, it will coincide with it. Winter is slow, while spring summer and early fall are planting and harvesting times.
-Ho-downs and square dancing and/or step dancing.
-Introduce sewing (by hand or machine).
-Rocking chairs, porch swings and maybe a hammock.
-Making sweet tea or sun tea or other different types.
-Lemonaid stand for kids.
-Flesh out the elders and their interaction and give them new clothes and hairs.
-New types of food like homestyle and southern influences. From fried chicken to jambalaya.
-Fiddle, Trumpet, and Banjo!
I'm sure there's more we could add but I'd love all these.
Thoughts? What would you add to the list?

I literally play this music above when playing Sims 4! Cozy and Fuzzy
They go together hand 'n hand. Most expansions are about partying and cater to young adult stuff like that. Don't get me wrong it has it's place but I really do miss having a country living aspect.
It has? Right now all I see is "we want pets!" but I feel with the way gamepacks are playing out we'll most likely just receive fleshed out dogs and cats and that's about it. TS3 was set up perfectly to have farm animals for once. And while we got horses, we only received store "items" the chicken coup and the cow barn to help with more of a farming atmosphere. But they're just objects again and never got to roam... like the babies in TS4 tied to bassinets.
I want it to possibly even be a progressive thing starting out with a roadside vegetable stand to running a market, to selling to grocers, etc. Like a family business.
Yes, I would have loved to have a more in depth farmer career for TS3. You could get away with it with the purchasable store content, but it wasn't really farming... But I agree, a great balance for TS4 and would keep me invested longer than 2 weeks.
That would be fun, or a farmers market for the town to trade/buy produce or meats. That would be awesome.
Exactly. Get away from those suburbs and sky scrapers. Country theme would balance it perfectly. Keeping fingers crossed for it.
Good additions
Outhouses are easy to build and my farm family has one in their lot. 1x2 with a door and a toilet inside lol
Adding Llamas would be fun too. All the jokes about Llamas yet we've never had a proper Llama in game? C'mon EA!
Or sell livestock. There was another thread that was pretty long back at the start of 4 and it had suggestions of such things as "best in show"competitions for livestock. Maybe if your livestock was pedigree and bred to be "perfect" ( like plants) they would be worth more....things like that.
Of course, best in show competitions would happen at the farmer's market in town along with the ho-down and celebrating harvest and selling other wares and produce.
Candle-making would be a nice addition too.
Llama farming! That's a great idea. We could have llama wool. Llama cheese. And it wouldn't matter if those are real things.
Toddlers would love a nice glass of llama milk!
Agreed. I demand real llamas!
Also I really like those ideas too!
Aw, pig competitions! How cute would that be? Or just having piggies in general would be a great addition.
My Sims 4 Random Legacy- When a goddess of chaos decides to meddle with a family. Check it out!
Some CAS items that would be perfect for this pack imo:
-knee high rubber boots
-A version of the rubber boots with mud stains
-Straw hat
-The "truck driver" cap
-An open flannel without an undershirt (hehe)
-Mud stained jeans
-A pair of jeans that go over the boots, not tucked in
-A pair of jeans that have just one leg tucked inside a boot
-New, more colorful and taller version of the base game cowboy boots
-Overalls for adults (only children have them atm)
-A female plaid shirt tucked into a bun in the front
That's a stuff pack's worth of clothing items, but there can definitely be more added.
They seriously gotta make this pack, it's got so much potential!
Nah, dude. Nah.
Oh yes! Lots of fun hairs and clothing to go with.
Instead of chewing tobacco they can chew bubble gum (like the bubble blower alternative).
Also more playground equipment for children. Like a tire swing. Or kids can play in the mud puddles. I'd love to see that. So cute.
