Farm storage
Everything my farmers grow just sits in the farm's own storage. For whatever reason, they won't move it out to root cellars, nor will the grocer pick them up to stock the market.

Anyone know a solution to this? I have around 1500 units of food just sitting in the farm, yet people are only getting meat/foraged foods.

Anyone else dealing with this issue? I have a farm with around 3k units of food sitting in it, but my people are malnourished because they can't access it.

Seems like farms are only useful for flax at this point.

No, I haven't seen this problem (yet). Do you have storage room in your wagon, root cellars or storehouses? Villagers seem to only get food from those places or a market, and the grocer only seems to get food for the market from storage- I can't recall them ever going to the farm directly to pick up produce. I've only seen them going to a root cellar or the storehouses, though I have seen villagers run to the wagon to grab something. And if storage is full, the farmers have nowhere to take the produce to to drop it off.

That's the only thing I can think of, unless you have some really quirky bug.

Maybe you put a wall around the farm and forgot to put a gate?

The only ohter thing I can think of is if you have a lot of apiaries- farmers are the ones who collect the honey and wax from apiaries, So you may have too many jobs for the farmers to do before they take the produce to storage?

Back to the basic questions
1 - Do you have enough laborers to move it?
2 - How far away are the storage facilities? To far away the food may sit there.
3 - Are your current storages full?
4 - Are there enough farmers to move it as well?
5 - How many other jobs are going on and how far away are those jobs?

Been there, done that, lol. Except I built the fence while my farmers were in the field working, and didn't figure out why they wouldn't leave, when they were all starting to lose HP and were starving. Whoops. xD
