Neighbors

Neighbors are farmer's friends in FarmVille. Neighbors send free gifts to each other and can also visit their neighbor's farm and fertilize crops and feed their chickens.

Adding New Neighbors
When you first start playing FarmVille, it is very important to have neighbors. Farmers add neighbors by clicking the 'My Neighbors' tab and adding friends who already play FarmVille and/or inviting friends who don't to play. If a farmer doesn't have many neighbors, there are several pages on Facebook that FarmVille players ask other FarmVille players to add them as a neighbor and then they can become FV neighbors.

Benefits of Having Neighbors
There are many benefits of having neighbors. Here is a list:

•Extra XP points and Coins- Visiting neighbors' farms and fertilizing their crops and feeding their chickens.

•Expanding Your Farm - More neighbors in FV will unlock the ability of buying farm upgrades.

•Gain Achievements - Farmers may earn the Local Celebrity ribbon by adding neighbors.

•Barn Raising - Neighbors may also help other neighbors in Barn Raising, expanding chicken coops or other FarmVille buildings.
