InManor Lords, you extract resources and fight other regions to acquire the depleted ones. As a lord of your people, it is your job to provide, grow, and sustain your town and do everything possible. This sometimes means reforesting areas and growing trees to produce essential resources.
Wood is one of the easily extractable resources in the game. Most of the land is scarce in berries, animals, iron, and stone, but not wood. You can find trees just about anywhere. However, as you grow your small settlement to a large town, you will eventually run out of wood.
How To Reforest An Area
To grow trees again and reforest a particular area in the game,you need to construct a “Forester’s Hut” building. Once the building is constructed, assigning two families to begin reforesting an area will be best.
Thefamilies you assign in the Forester’s Hutonlygrow trees around this building. They will never leave the building’s radius to reforest an area. For this, the best you can do is move the building to another place, ideally somewhere where you have already cut down the trees.
That is because you may have otherimportant buildings nearby, such as a Storehouseand a Sawpit. Reforesting an area previously cut down to extract timber willavoid relocating all of these essential buildings.
TheForester’s Hut has a smaller radius by default, and hence, the families willplant trees around the Forester’s Hut. However, if you explore the"Advanced Tab" and click the “Limit Work Area,” you canincrease the radius by holding “CTRL and scrolling the mouse scroll.” This will allow the family members to start planting in a wider area.
How Long It Takes To Reforest An Area
Unlike most tasks, where you see production quickly,reforesting is by far the slowest task inthe game. That is because theend goal is to grow treesso you may cut them down again for timber, produce firewood, planks, and much more.
Growing trees is even slower than sowing crops. Ideally, crops are sown in spring and harvested by November. However, if you install aForester’s Hut building in an area in January, it will take three complete years for the trees to grow.
