cant harvest wild crops due to blocked job?

[Freakbob]

I have a small village with 100 population and I'm trying to get some new crops like cotton and grain to farm but I need the crops to build farms for them so I'm trying to harvest the wild crops. However, whenever it comes to the harvesting season for the wild crops my villagers don't go out and gather them and it says the job is blocked by another. How can i fix this?

If the forage isn't being done and it's late summer, then put a workstation and assign workers there.

i tried that and now the workers arent bringing the crops back to the village even if i have a crate designated to store the crops.

Are they within the radius of the warehouse? (It's a slider when you click on the warehouse)

Default in v65 is full map coverage but demo might be different, you might need to increase the radius to cover the Goods

The worker who picked the crop doesn't carry it back, the warehouse will send its own workers (do your warehouses have enough employees?)

even with work station they do not pick it up. I wanted to take the mushrooms but to no avail...

Workstation doesn't bring them to the warehouse. Workstations are for constructing buildings and other odd-jobs. You need a hauler or a warehouse to pick the crops up. If the warehouse is too busy, build a hauler. Haulers are very handy, but need a lot of micromanagement.

The workers who forage the crops will haul them if they have nothing else to do, but they are very slow compared to a hauler. They will do other work first.

Personally, I think it's silly they have to make two trips to bring in the stuff, but that's how the game works.
