Grow Funflowers for Dick

Grow 12 Funflowers for Dick. You will need 3 packets of Funflower seeds. Use the 12 plots next to Dick's house.

Once you are friends

Am a bit surprised you want to talk to me. I am not the most cheery of people.

Is there even any point? Look at me. I live in a hovel, grow turnips on a wasteland and have to look across the river at those horrible Lawns!

Once they like you

It wasn't always like this, you know? We used to have a lovely farm, but then those Lawns moved in and diverted the river and used all sorts of tactics to sabotage us.

We couldn't compete with their money.

I fell off the wagon then. Broke my arm. After that, I couldn't farm as well as I used to.

Sat drinking turnip starshine. Yes, it is as horrible as it sounds.

So here I am now, just waiting for the Goddesses to turn me into fertiliser.

Asking for help

You are the only outsider who ever gave me time. I love Kat and Luca and always will. I just wish I could find a way to get out of my rut.

I did hear that the Fae have a flower that lifts the spirits... a type of funny sunflower, I think?

If I had my crop squares full of those, I reckon that might do the trick!

Yes, I am hinting.

When it is done

I feel so much better already! Money can't buy you happiness, but funny certainly can!

When I see those flowers dancing, my soul feels like dancing along too.

All this has made me see the wood through the trees. What is important in life are great friends like you, family, fun and laughter.

I am a much richer man than those bitter buggers across the way. So stick their money where Solus don't shine! Laugh is for the living!
