Picked Upload!
This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS and in the community.
A little slice of beauty and tranquility amid the grime and hustle of downtown..."
Are your apartment dwelling sims dying of scurvy, with no room for a garden and no access to fresh fruits and veggies? Would your lazy sims rather stand there waving their arms and shouting at you than do a few minutes of gardening?
Not to worry! Just have them hop right into their Hummer and spin down to the community garden, where they can take a break from the dust and stress of downtown and harvest all the fresh produce they can eat.
The best part is that as long as the lot is not owned by one of your sims, it will always revert back to the way it was saved... so, your sims can go there and harvest produce, then when they go back next time or when a different sim goes there, all the plants will be back and ready to harvest again. All types of fruits and veggies are available to harvest, and all the plants are in thriving condition.
If you consider this cheating and don't want your sims to get free fruits and veggies, they can still visit and enjoy the lot - just don't tell them to harvest anything. Sims seem to like just hanging out in the garden, so it's usually a pretty happening place in my game.
Rambling about compatibility: There is stuff from Seasons and Bon Voyage in this lot, but nothing from any other expansions. I left all the EPs checked as required, because they were all installed when I built the lot. My understanding is that you may or may not be able to play the lot if you don't have all the EPs, but you will need at least Seasons, Bon Voyage, and Nightlife. You don't need any stuff packs.

- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
