Farmville's English Country side, why haven't my crops grown and my animals aren't ready to harvest yet?!?

FarmVille has finally introduced the English Country side, which is basically much the same as your home farm, just a few new extra things.  For those who save up your coins, you now need to start building your building that you have on your home farm. When you are ready to travel to your English Country Side Farm, you are already given the Sheep and Horse building, but those also need to be upgraded.

The English country side is basically starting from scratch, and you will need to purchase the following:

• Nursery (Build and Expand Storage)Baby Bottle, Baby blanket, Brick, Wooden Board and nail

• Pig-pen (Build and Expand Storage) Brick, Wooden Board and nail

• Vehicle garage (Build and expand storage) Brick, Wooden Board and nail you need vehicle parts to upgrade your vehicles

• Animal Trough - Ready as is

• Dairy farm (Expand Storage only) Ask Friends to join your barn raising

• Barn (Expand Storage only) Ask friends to join your barn raising

• Chicken coop (Expand storage only) Ask friends to join your barn raising

• Storage Cellar Need 500 shovels

• Duck Pond (Build and expand storage)  - Water cans and shovels

• Farmer Market Stalls - You can have up to five stalls

• English Pub - You need to earn levels to be able to upgrade to more available crafting tables

• Sheep pen (Expand Storage) - Already on farm, need bricks, wooden board and nails to expand storage

• Horse Stable (Expand Storage) - Already on farm, need bricks, wooden board, nails, horse shoe and harness

Of Course, don't forget about your dog :)

As you browse the market, you will see things that you may have already been using on your farm, such as the tree orchard for example.  The beehive is not available as of this date.

I did notice, as some have may have already noticed, that when you are on one farm, your crops, animals and crafting are paused on the farm you are not on.  Lets say for example, after you travel over to the English country side, do what you need to do, than close your browser, everything will get ready to harvest on the English Country Side, but your home farm will be paused.  So if you go back ten hours later to harvest your crops on your home farm, but left the game while visiting the English Country Side, nothing on the home farm will be ready.  This includes harvesting your trees, animals, crops and even your Crafting table, everything has basically been paused.

I am not sure if zygna is doing this intentionally or if it is some quirks they need to fix, but it can be a problem for those co-op jobs.  If you leave your home farm and sit on the English country side, your crops will not grow and this will possibly cause a problem with earning a medal for that job.

The upside to this though is that if you need time to let your crops to grow, an example would be, if you might be going away for some time and are unable to visit your farm, than sure, go to the farm that has no crops and let the farm with the crops stay paused, but this may or may not stay for long.
