I heard about this game from someonewho had done potato research at the U of WA. They actually "wore out" your game. What a great recommendation!

Dear Sir,

Recently my husband and I played a game called the Farmer Game. It was the most fun game we've ever played. I'd like to know if the game is still available. I do want to purchase this game if at all possible. Please send information if the game is still available and how much and I will send payment right away.

Thank You.

Dear Weekend Farmer Company,

This past summer I played " The Farming Game" for the first time in my life. It was delightful. Prior to this year I had never heard of the game. The people who owned it had once upon a time lived in Washington State; it was explained to me how the game was invented by a Washington native and was reflective of the actual geography of where that person lived. I have seen many examples of this, such as the "Monopoly" rip-offs, which are really only the old-fashioned Monopoly game with a different face to reflect a given University, organization, or town. "The Farming Game" is different. It is an original concept, and one that I really like. Deep down inside I have always wanted to be a farmer-- this game gives me a chance to at least pretend a little.

I was so delighted by the game that I would like to purchase one for my family. In fact, I am also curious to see if your company markets any other similar products. Do you have a catalog, or at least a way to order direct? I have my doubts that "The Farming Game" appears in stores here on the Eastern Seaboard.

Anything you can send would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!

Sincerely,

Phil M.

Dear Weekend Farmer Co.

Just a short note to say I was happy to have received your game for Christmas. I am a mother of 6 sons and we also farm so playing your game makes it even more exciting. I bet just since we started playing the Farming Game with our friends- you will have a lot of extra sales. Everyone's comment, it's a fun game. We've been farming a long time and I love your game, especially when you win. Thanks to the farmer who thought of this game. It's a lot of enjoyable evenings for us.

Dear Weekend Farmer:

Wow what a game! We love it! We have played it every weekend since 1981. We have made some of our own rules. Like, you can only have 5 O.T.B. cards at one time. You have unlimited credit, and you must have cash for your expenses.

We need a new harvest card, because the numbers have rubbed off the one we presently own. Also our money seems to be fading, and worn out. We also could use some more promissory notes. If you could please send us an order form, and a price list it would be much appreciated.

Thank You,

Happy Weekend Farmer

Dear Farming Game,

Forgive me, this is all I had to write to you, I do not know your company name. Never in my life have I seen such a fantastic game! My wife and I were at our friend's house today (New Year's Day) and their children were playing this game.

I hope that you still make the game! I would like to order one! I will pay the full price, tax, postage and handling! Please let me know! Thank You!!

Dear Mr. Rohrbacher,

I hunted for a copy of your farming game for over thirteen years, before I found it at a Central Tractor store a couple of years ago. I had even ordered it at least three times from catalogs that offered them, but was always told hat they were now out of stock on that particular item, and sent me my money back.

We spend most of our winter evenings playing this enjoyable game and have made a few other couples want a game for their own families. However, I am back to the same place that I was thirteen years ago. I am now looking for at least three more copies of your game or riends and family, so that mine can start staying at home. (Winter is coming on quick.)

If you have any idea where I can purchase them at, I would appreciate it if you could let me know where , or if you have any in your possession, just let me know the cost per set and I will send you a check for the merchandise. Thank You for your time and a great game that has taught a lot of my city cousins the chances that you take when you are a farmer.

Sincerely,

Mary S.

Gentlemen:

After spending many enjoyable hours of playing " The Farming Game" with friends from the midwest, we city folk are totally hooked. This game is far better than Monopoly. We like it so much that we have been trying to find a local outlet that carries it. Currently we have a search in progress from Chicago to the East Coast, with several people involved , but to no avail. In desperation we borrowed our friend's game, and now we have numerous other people hooked along with us (this could become the latest non-drug problem of the country). However, this line of action only compounded our problem, as there are now several people who also want a game of their own. Which brings me to the reason for writing to you. I would appreciate receiving the information necessary to purchase "The Farming Game", i.e., price, local availability if any, or address for ordering. If you would be so kind as to send the above mentioned information to:

I sincerely hope this wonderful game is still available, preferably through your company, but if I must resort to using the Black Market, I will, nothing will deter me from acquiring my own game. You are to be congratulated for inventing such an enjoyable pasttime. Thank You!!!!!

Sincerely,

I just wanted to tell you that the Duerksen family loves the Farming Game. It is a standing tradition that we play over the Christmas Holidays.

We average over 5 hours when we play and have had to create 50k, 100k, 500k, and even 1 million dollar bills. We keep a record of who won with how much, the length of the game, and other players. We now have a record of over 10 years.

Keep on farmin'

We really enjoyed playing with our friends last night, We played for about 4 hours until somebody yelled out for an audit, I would like to get the game but don't know where.

Sincerly yours,

Tracy Carr





God bless you for making this game! My sister's husband in Alaska had relatives in Washington State that introduced this game to them. I played it with them and was hooked. I have since moved to Michigan and have been converting many Michiganders to "Farmers". You have a loyal following here!

It has become a weekend ritual in our family to "Farm like pro's"

Thank you!

Hi-

We love your game, being from the farming state of Vermont! We were wondering if you have a listing of where your game is available... Do you have any vendors in the Burlington area? We got a couple of friends hooked on the game, and they want it really bad!

Thanks

Hi-

We love your game, being from the farming state of Vermont! We were wondering if you have a listing of where your game is available....we got ours in the southernmost part of the state and we live near the border of Canada! Do you have any vendors in the Burlington area? We live in St. Albans. We got a couple of friends hooked on the game, and they want it really bad! I know we can order it online, but if it is available in our area, we would prefer that.

Thanks

Wendy and Nathaniel Cobb
