You, a fruit farmer, have come up with a daring new endeavor: creating an orchard atop man-made islands in the deep blue sea. With an abundance of nature, sunlight and water close at hand, you believe you’ll be able to create an orchard the likes of which has never been seen before. It’s important to think about the kind of orchard you want to build, but you’ll need to secure the necessary money and manpower if you want to make your dreams into reality. It will take more than skilled management of your orchard to turn your farming operation into a lasting enterprise. You’ll need to attract tourists by developing products and opening stores that turn your fresh-grown fruit into local delicacies. You start with nothing more than a small harbor in the vast ocean. Will you be able to bring your grand plans to fruition? —description from the publisher 果樹農家のあなたは太陽の光が降り注ぎ、水に恵まれた自然豊かな海の上に果樹園を作るアイデアを思いつきました。人工の島を海に浮かべてこれまでにない新たな果樹園をつくりましょう！しかし、どんな果樹園にしたいかを描くことも大切ですが労働者や資金を確保しなければ、海上の果樹園は実現できません。また、果樹園を営むだけでなく採れたての新鮮な果実を活かして、名物となる商品を製造したり、観光客を魅きつける店を開いたり持続可能な計画にするためには、あらゆる施策が必要です。まだ小さな港しかない海の上で大きな計画を成功させることができるのでしょうか。 —description from the publisher (Japanese)
