penguinsane; 'wild plants' don't need any care and will keep producing forever.

Lokilow; sadly, it seems plants can't be cloned with testingcheats, so the easiest way I can think of would be to take a sim with at least 7 gardening skill, stack up on the fruits you want and plant the desired amount on its home lot.
To avoid having to care for these new plants, move your sim to another house.
Your new garden will be ready for looting within a few days :D

Is there any way we can get a version of this for basegame only pretty please with a cherry on top?

I love love love this idea, but for some reason it's not working for me. When I first placed the garden in my neighborhood, I was not able to harvest anything - the only option available was "view". So I figured I would give it a sim day or two to fully grow. The next "day" I walked to the lot and all the plants were GONE with the exception of the decorative bushes! What could be the problem? Could one of my klepto neighbors have stolen all the plants?!?! (haha, j/k about that )

Loretta_Young_Silks: I got around to test it in a vanilla basegame, no problems detected. (WA-plants simply don't appear, so it will look a little empty in comparison to the preview shots here.)

beansly87: Have you checked thoroughly for possibly utdated or conflicting mods somewhere in your game? I've had my fair share of omgwtfbbq due to those

It is good idea, thank you. But it is pity that in your lot is no Money Tree and Omni Plant with perfect harvestable.

Since money bags are not ingredients and the Omni Plant does not increase the quality of ingredients already obtained, I didn't see the need to include them in this lot. (And I was running out of space.)

This is awesome! I tried installing the buy all fruit and buy all fish hacks and they wrecked my game. All my fruits and fish just vanished from my sims lots and inventories, it was a nightmare! Now I can get it all back! THANK YOU!

It's in sims3pack format, you either double click and it will install through the launcher automagically, or plop it into the downloads folder -> select it in the launcher -> install.

Thanks a lot, that's just brilliant. I've had a perfect garden like this only once but it never occured to me that I can export it and share, or at least save it for later, now I deleted the savegame and it's gone forever so I'll use yours

I'm having a problem placing the lot!

When I go into World Editor to place a new lot in which to put the garden lot, it won't let me place the garden. All the empty lot 'bubbles' disappear and I can't place it anywhere at all, no matter the size lot I use.

I'm not sure if this is a 'user error' issue or if it's actually a glitch. I know the garden uses plants from WA, which I don't have. I presumed those plants would just be replaced with basics, but was I mistaken?

Any help would be very appreciated

Love it! I have placed it in Riverview and my active family live just around the corner! Very useful for them, especially since my cook needed the ingredients for Baked Angel Food Cake. Thanks for all your effort.
