  Introduction 
  Sprawling farmlands are the backdrop for parts of many epic adventures but rarely are they explored with 
  much detail. This volume hopes to help remedy that. Whether the players are simply looking for a place 
  to stop over and stay the night or they have gone completely off course and stumbled upon a nearby 
  farm, you can be ready to create adventure at the drop of a hat. 
  In this volume you will find a total of 11 tables to help you create a vibrate farm for your players to 
  explore. As with many of our other publications you will find no hard stats or numbers so that anything 
  you create can be easily transported into the setting of your choice. 
  Happy Gaming,  
  Rowan
