Agricola: Farmers of the Moor

About this expansion

Agricola: Farmers of the Moor is a large expansion for Agricola, supporting 1–5 players with an approximately 200-minute play time. Released at Essen in 2009, it adds new features and a substantial collection of new improvements to the farming experience.

This expansion introduces horses as a new type of animal, giving farms another addition to manage. It also adds a new household concern: feeding your family is no longer the only requirement. You must also keep your family from becoming ill by heating each room in your house.

Fuel becomes an important part of maintaining a warm home. You can obtain it by chopping down the forests on your farmyard or by harvesting peat, creating new ways to address the demands of your expanding farm.

• A large set of new improvements
• Horses as a new type of animal
• Heating requirements for every room in your house
• Fuel from forests and harvested peat

Farmers of the Moor builds on Agricola with additional considerations that connect your farmyard, your animals, and your home. Alongside developing new improvements, you must think about how to secure enough fuel to keep every room heated and protect your family from illness.

Designed as the first big expansion for Agricola, Agricola: Farmers of the Moor adds depth through its new resources, animal type, and household challenge. It offers a broader farming experience while preserving the central need to manage the demands of life on the farm.
