What the heck is foresters hut for

[JunSunBro]

I built this foresters hut to plant more trees but theyre not doing anything. just waiting. Maybe coz its only February and its winter? Do they really plant any trees?

They plant from March through November.

the forester hut works fine. It might seem weird in the first moment after placement, but the hut with two people will do wonders :)

EDIT:
I would recommend to set specific work areas for wood log camp and foresters hut, aswell as for the firewood building. So every builddding and their families have specific work areas and give you a good feeling for coordinated work.

I think they don't plant in winter.
They plant trees. It'll take a long time before they're fully grown tho. I usually end up with two foresters, both with 2 workers, with the same defined work area. End up with a giant circle of trees that keeps multiple loggers/woodcutters etc. occupied.

Once you reach a decent stockpile of firewood/logs for a bit, you can pause those productions and let the trees grow for a while, too. Then resume.

Like apple orchards, the trees take a couple of years to start growing properly.

I have 2 foresters huts, both covering the same area as my logging camp and woodcutter's lodge. During the first year or two, the area is fairly stripped out but then the new trees start coming into effect and it grows back into a full dense forest of basically unlimited trees for cutting.

If you look *really* closely, you can even see the almost invisible saplings.
I wish they wouldn't sometimes plant them in the middle of the King's Road, though. ;)

they word but they dont plant in winter and a tree takes time to grow, if u have to much woodchopping in the same area it looks like it does nothing, take one building place it for 1 year afar from anything u will notice u wont even see the buildign anymore...
