Hawaii and the Harvest Moon Economy

Posted on June 28, 2021

One of my fondest memories growing up in Hawaii was coming home and finding a giant bag of something good from someone’s yard on our doorstep. It reminds me so much of this Japanese game I used to play: Harvest Moon.

In the game, you grow fruits and vegetables, tend the farm, then give your products away to your neighbors in exchange for happiness points. It’s just like what I’ve been doing all COVID long. It’s a little like what we do at the plant exchange each month too. I think my heart meter is full.
