First Orchard

About this board game

First Orchard is a cooperative game for 1–4 players, with a playing time of about 10 minutes and rules designed for children ages 2 and up.

It is time to collect the fruit from the orchard—but a pesky raven is making its way down the path. Players work together to pick all the apples, plums, and pears before the raven arrives and eats everything.

First Orchard introduces young children to the basic ideas of playing a game in a simple, approachable way. Players practice taking turns, recognize colors, and explore the concept of winning and losing as a group. Because the game is cooperative, everyone works toward the same goal.
