FarmVille Holiday Hearth: Everything you need to know

![][1] If you thought [Zynga][2] was done releasing items to celebrate Christmas in [FarmVille][3], think again. A new Holiday Hearth has rolled out to users' farms, allowing players to ask for Stocking Stuffers from friends. As you fill your stocking, you'll also be eligible to ask your friends whether they think you've been "naughty or nice" this year, and will have a chance at different items accordingly.

First and foremost, you can place your Holiday Hearth on any farm. From there, you'll need to start collecting Stocking Stuffers from your friends (or by purchasing them with Farm Cash). This isn't just a one-time deal, but you will fill your first stocking at 10 Stocking Stuffers. This gives you a free Forest Snowglobe as a prize. At this point, you'll be given a two-day warning that you won't have another stocking in that time period. You will, however, be able to ask your friends for votes as to whether or not you've been Naughty or Nice this year.

Depending on which way your friends vote, you'll be eligible for one of two prizes. For this first round of voting, the Naughty side will reward you with a Radiant Sun Tree, while the Nice side will give you a Starry Night Tree. You'll need just four votes to reach either extreme's prize, and it's presumable that you'll be able to earn both items if you have eight friends in total help you out before the next Stocking shows up to be filled.



Through the rest of this event, we'll see four more items available via the Naughty and Nice polls: a North Pole Gnome and Black Snow Fantasy Horse for the Naughty side and a Gift Giving Gnome and White Snow Fantasy Horse for the nice side. Just remember to keep checking back with your Holiday Hearth so that you don't miss your chance at these free goodies. Or, if you can't wait, feel free to purchase each item for (ever-increasing) amounts of Farm Cash. Happy holidays!
