Fresh v0.9.0.0 FS25
Fresh v0.9.0.0 FS25
Early access release
Fresh adds shelf life to your produce and bales – crops age over time and will spoil if not sold or used!
Your harvested crops, processed products, and baled forage now have realistic shelf lives. Fresh vegetables spoil quickly, while canned products last much longer. Bales of grass spoil within days, while silage stays fresh for months. Customize shelf lives to match your playstyle!
