Amidst the deluge of new items and features coming from FarmVille English Countryside, FarmVille Freak has found one gem in particular that's pretty astounding. If you open any Mystery Gift while playing FarmVille in England, it will have a chance of dropping vehicles. No, not Vehicle Parts or run-down rigs like the Broken Combine, but 100 percent complete Tractors, Seeders and Harvesters. Come to think of it, these are kind of useless in light of the Broken Combine that's sitting on English farms just waiting to be fixed. (Not to mention it's free.) Well, at least each rig sells for a good amount of coin--oh, never mind.

FarmVille English Countryside Sheep Pen Goals: Everything you need to know
The best part of the English Countryside expansion is probably the Goals. This relatively new feature to FarmVille guides you along into creating everything you need for your farm. In this case, the Sheep Pen Goals will task you with creating your own Sheep Pen and later breed your first Ewe. Join us behind the break to see how it's done.
1. Et Tu, Brutus?
Buy a Sheep Pen
Visit 6 Neighbors
View your Progress
Et Tu, Brutus
This Goal will lead you straight to the Sheep Pen if you click on the button "Get Sheep Pen" in the Goal's window. Thankfully, you can visit neighbors on either their original farms or their English farms for it to count. And finally, viewing your progress is as easy as clicking on the map button next to the Plow Tool. For completing this Goal, you'll net a cool 200 XP, 1,500 coins and Brutus the Ram to get you started.
2. Please Fence Me In
Complete a Sheep Pen
Buy and Place 8 Country Fences
Expand your farm to an English Homestead
Please Fence Me In
To find out how to complete the Sheep Pen, check out our full guide. Country Fences cost 300 coins a piece and can be found in the Decorations section in the Market. Expanding your farm is simple enough: Just click on the borders of your farm and the option will appear in the Market. However, this expansion costs 25 thousands coins and all expansion require Surveyors, which we covered in a neat little guide. Complete this Goal and you'll receive an Old Garage, 200 XP and 1,500 coins.
3. I'll Get Ewe
Buy one Ewe
I'll Get Ewe
That's it. Honestly. Just snag one Ewe by clicking on the "Get Sheep" button and this Goal is complete. Just for this simple task, 200 XP, 2,000 coins and five Love Potions are yours.
4. On the Lamb
Breed and produce a Lamb
Place on Lamb on your farm
Feed your Lamb 10 Baby Bottles
On the Lamb
To learn how to breed Sheep, check out our guide right here. Once that's all said and done, you'll receive 1,500 coins, 250 XP, a Golden Sheep Statue and Gertrude the Ewe. And now you're ready to breed to your heart's content.

FarmVille English Countryside Sneak Peek: Sebright Chicken, Red Phone Booth, & More
Don't worry if your English Countryside is still looking a little empty in FarmVille, as Zynga is apparently planning to release even more new items in the current English Countryside limited edition theme, if these newest unreleased images are to be believed (which they should).
There's a bit of a variety in this newest set of items, as we have one animal, one building, and one decoration to show you. The animal is the Sebright Chicken, and while it will likely be able to be placed in a Chicken Coop, we wouldn't be surprised if this is one item that is locked to only being placed on your second farm in England, rather than on your Home Farm.
As for the other two items, they are the English Bed & Breakfast building, or the English B&B for short, and the Red Phone Booth. If you aren't a fan of the mysterious Blue Police Box which we believe was released as a nod to Dr. Who fans, this will be your chance to add a similar item in another color to your farm instead.
We'll make sure to let you know when these items are released in the game, along with their prices or other details about how they can be obtained so keep checking back.
Which of these three items would you most like to add to your farm, or do you want them all?

FarmVille English Countryside Back to Basics Goals: Everything you need to know
After you've completed the Village Faire goals in FarmVille's English Countryside, you'll be introduced to Henry, the Duke's son, who is desperately in love with Lucy, but has no idea how to be a good farmer! You'll need to help him out in Chapter 7 of the game's English Countryside storyline, so let's get right down to business, shall we?
The first quest is called Back to Basics, and it has you completing just two tasks, both of which can be done at the same time (should you have rebuilt your Super Combine, that is).
Plow 200 Plots
Harvest 200 English Peas
English Peas take 12 hours to grow, and can be planted for 200 coins per square. For finishing this goal, you'll receive 200 XP, five Fences and 2,500 coins.
Once you've taught Henry the basics of plowing and planting crops, you'll move onto the second goal, called Building Blocks, which teaches Henry about the various buildings on your farm.
Harvest your Chicken Coop Twice
Harvest your Horse Stable Twice
Craft Duke's Stout to Level 15
If you're reading our guide before unlocking these goals on your farm, this is as good of a warning as I could ever give you - start crafting all of the Duke's Stout that you can to make sure that you're at Level 15 before this quest launches, so as to not get stuck at this point. If you have finished all of the missions up to this point, then I hope you have a bunch of bushels on-hand to quickly get you through, as I sure don't. Finishing this goal gives you 200 XP, another five fences and 2,500 coins.
Goal three is called A Growing Concern, and it tasks you with teaching Henry some new tricks around the farm.
Achieve Level 1 Mastery of Field Beans
Complete the Amazing Aster Job
Use a Combine 50 Times
While the Field Beans and Combine tasks can be completed simultaneously (Field Beans are grown for 80 coins per square and take 16 hours to grow), the Amazing Aster task is a full co-op farming job that must be completed (or skipped with Farm Cash) before you can move on. The job asks you to harvest a whopping 1200 Pink Asters (which grows in one day) to finish, and you'll have two days to finish the job with friends to earn the Bronze medal. If you want to really challenge yourself, try for the Gold Medal, which is earned by finishing in under 19 hours.
For finishing this co-op mission, and the other two tasks, you'll receive 5,000 coins, 250 XP and 4 Flower Pots.
This brings us to the end of Chapter 7, with a quest called Being Neighbourly. If you're a bit tired after completing all of these previous quests, I assure you - pushing on to the finish will be worth it.
Fertilize plots on neighbors' farms 40 times
Get 6 Testimonials
Expand to English Freehold
The English Freehold is the 18x18 farm expansion, which can be unlocked for 100,000 coins, should you have enough Surveyors to help you (just ask friends individually to help you expand). The Testimonials, meanwhile, are earned through a general news feed post. For finishing this final quest, you'll earn 500 XP, one Heather Knoll and - wait for it - you'll unlock Lush Soil for your Home Farm! As with Lush Soil on the English Countryside farms, you'll be able to earn extra bushels and crop mastery for farming on your Home Farm with this new Lush Soil. I told you it was worth it!
After all of this hard work has been completed, you'll once again be at a standstill in the English Countryside, until Zynga can release more goals. There's a lot of work ahead of us to get here though, so good luck as you make your way through these goals!
