Hello all, it's been a while.

I know I haven't posted much here on the forums lately, but I can assure you that I've been stalking and voting in the light challenges fairly regularly. I haven't been much for mapping lately, but suddenly I find myself knee-deep in a personal project and I find that it's time to get back to it. But I need some advise.

I'm going to be building the small village of Newmeadow. It'll be a small village with a few shops and an inn--nothing special. There will be several farms surrounding the village, probably a good day's ride out. I'm thinking maybe a cluster of a few homesteads in any direction that all work together to make Newmeadow a self-sustaining community in what will probably be some type of Point-of-Light setting. But that's another discussion.

What I need is a farm. Or rather your opinions on what a fantasy farm would involve. Obviously a farmhouse... but what's in it? How big? How many rooms? Outbuildings, I assume, would depend on what they're doing at the farm. What else am I missing? Game-wise, I don't want anything too big. But I do want something that makes sense. Any ideas?

When I get something going I'll post the WiPs here, so maybe I can start contributing again.

Thanks!
