24+Where to Find Fertile Soil
25+ 
26+Fertile Soil appears as dark brown, broken earth around the Ancient Ruins scattered throughout the Foothills. The soil pockets sit directly adjacent to ruined walls and old garden plots, and respawn after being cleared.
27+ 
28+Harvesting requires a Stone Pickaxe or any sturdier pickaxe. Each patch yields several units; stock up when you are already running past ruins rather than making dedicated trips.

30+What Fertile Soil Does
31+ 
32+Fertile Soil is the farming substrate. Placing soil in planters or designated farm tiles at your base lets you cultivate flax, corn, and other seedlings without hunting them in the wild. Setting up base farms significantly reduces the time cost of stockpiling Flax Fiber for Linen Fabric and cornmeal for cooking.

34+Tips
35+ 
36+Scout every ruin you pass, not just combat objectives. Some ruins have three or more soil patches.Soil is heavy (0.5 per unit). Don't overload your inventory; leave it in a base chest next to your planters.Farm expansion pairs well with the Millstones unlock, since homegrown corn feeds cornmeal and gunpowder production.
