Hay bale stacking is just an illusion on Farmville. The code doesn’t actually allow stacking, but by placing the hay bales in strategic locations, it can appear as though the hay is stacked in nice little rows.

The trick to doing so is to place the hay bales so the top right corner of each hay bale in your bottom row is touching the bottom left corner of each hay bale in the row above it.

Then you’ll want to place extra hay bales to fill in the gaps on the right and left sides, so the ends are even. Add two to the right on the bottom row; add one to the right on the second row, etc.

After that, add two bales immediately behind the hay bale on the bottom left, and one immediately behind the hay bale on the middle left. You’ll end up with what looks like steps on the left side.

You can expand on this process to create bigger and better hay stacks. You can also vary the colors of the hay bales that you use. There are currently ten colors of hay bales – white, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, gray and black.

You can make cool designs for the holidays and different seasons of the year. How about an all-red heart for Valentine’s Day? Or a green four-leaf clover for St. Patrick’s Day? You can try other neat designs too, like a gigantic pyramid, waterfall, logo, or smiley face. Some players build high towers and put houses on them, creating villas in the sky. There are also massive fortress-like structures that can make your farm look like a fortified battle zone.

There is really no limit to the number of designs you can make, and if you get really good at it, you can enter your designs in various contests found around the web.

You can obtain hay bales by either purchasing them in the market under “Decorations – Hay Bales” for 125 coins each. You can also receive them as gifts from friends and neighbors. The more active a player you are in giving gifts and helping others in Farmville, the more likely you’ll receive assistance and gifts of your own in return.

Hay bale stacking is a relatively easy and inexpensive way to decorate your farm and really make it stand out from the crowd. We hope you found these tips helpful. Give it a try and comment with any suggestions or feedback here!

Here’s one of the easiest and most useful Farmville cheats you can do. You can trap your farmer inside other objects to keep him from walking around. This will speed up all of your plowing, harvesting, planting and other activities because your farmer will no longer walk from place to place first. Creating the trap is easy to do and many different objects will work. The most popular option seems to be hay bales.

To set the trap, place three hay bales together with a space in the middle and one side of the trap left open. Then click to the empty space in the middle to get your farmer to walk inside. Once your farmer is in place, close the trap by placing the fourth hay bale. To make this even more effective, create the trap around the exact center of your farm. This is where you usually begin when you log into the game. That way, you won’t need to reset the trap each time you play.
