Collections

Collections are an achievement available in FarmVille, which were released on January 15, 2010. When a farmer reaches Level 10, they can earn collection items by doing various tasks on their farm (plowing, harvesting from Trees and Animals, and Fertilizing). Collectibles can also be obtained via a friend's Wall post.

They will sometimes also show up as gifts, like the Dragonfly and Needlepoint. The item will change every two days. When all items in a collection have been collected, the farmer can trade in the collection for three rewards (250 XP, 5,000 Coins, and 5 Tanks of Fuel). You can hold up to 10 of each collectable item and can trade in a collection as long as you have all the items, and can trade in at any time.

When Uncommon or Rare items are found you are given the option to share the item on your wall with 5 friends. When you complete a collection you can post on your wall alerting your friends of the achievement. If one of your friends clicks on it within 24 hours they are rewarded with one random item from the collection that was completed. There are two different types of Collections: Permanent Collections and Lightning Collections, which are renamed "Limited Time Collections" on August 27, 2010.

The Permanent Collections are divided into Gardening Tools Collection, Country Kitsch Collection, Bugs Collection, Butterfly Collection, Feather Collection and Button Collection.
