Want a fun and entertaining way to chart your progress in Farmville? Of course, watching your coins and XP/level progress is one way to mark your accomplishments, but the ribbons in Farmville are a exciting way to earn recognition for specific objectives in the game. Ribbons are available in a host of different categories. Everything from the “Flower Power” ribbon, where you earn money from growing flowers, to the “Lord of the Plow” ribbon where you get recognition for using a tractor to plow your fields. The ribbons range from the serious to the downright weird, but they’re all fun. And ribbons provide benefits beyond mere recognition. As you earn them, you’ll get additional experience points, coins and even special gifts.

Currently, there are over 25 different ribbon categories and each category allows you to earn four different colors of ribbons: yellow, white, red and blue. The colors get progressively harder to earn within each category. For instance, the Cream of the Crop Yellow ribbon, which you earn for harvesting crops, is won after harvesting just 30 crops in the game. But the white ribbon requires you to harvest 1,000 crops. And the blue ribbon for Cream of the Crop requires a whopping 50,000 harvested crops to earn.

Even though many of the ribbons in Farmville exist primarily to provide you with additional things to do in the game, you can make use of the rewards for some of them in a very strategic fashion. Doing so allows you to very quickly advance in the game and earn quite a few coins and XP. Farmville ribbons can be a great way to move through the earlier levels of the game.

You can choose from a lot of different ribbon earning strategies in the game. Two of the best ribbons to aim for early on in Farmville are the Local Celebrity and Good Samaritan ribbons. These ribbons give you rewards for adding neighbors and helping them out. You can earn quite a few coins and XP early on by adding friends and neighbors in Farmville. For example, if you add eight neighbors and help on their farms three times each, you’ll earn both the white Local Celebrity ribbon and the yellow Good Samaritan ribbon. The rewards from the combined ribbons are 55 XP and 3,500 coins. That’s a very large number of coins so early in the game. And don’t forget that the act of adding lots of neighbors helps out with more than just ribbons. It’s an important part of the entire game.

There’s a great technique (some call it a cheat) that you can use with the Architect ribbons. The different colors of the Architect ribbon reward you for placing different buildings and structures on your farm. These are all purchased at the Farmville Market and are generally pretty expensive. But there’s one building that doesn’t cost very much at all. It’s the rest tent, and you’ll only need to spend 1,000 coins to buy each one. Once you’ve accumulated 30,000 coins in the game, you can purchase 30 rest tents and place them on your farm to earn all four colors of the Architect ribbon very quickly. The ribbons give you back most of the coins you had to spend and you’ll get 2,150 XP. It’s one of the most effective ways to convert excess coins into XP in the game and a great strategy to pursue for anyone looking to power-level their way through the early part of the game. For example, you can move from level 10 to 14 in just a few minutes using this technique! Sadly, it only works once, but it’s a great strategy to employ as early as you can.

Of course, these are just some of the many strategies you can pursue with ribbons in Farmville. They’re a fun diversion and you can get a lot of enjoyment from trying to earn as many different ribbons as you can.
