Many [[dwarf|dwarves]] prefer the humble [[plump helmet]], which can be [[farming|grown]] year-round, [[food|eaten raw]], [[cook|cooked]], or brewed into [[Alcohol|wine]], and many early fortresses rely on the plump helmet crop as a staple of their diet. All above-ground crops are all-seasons as well, the best of which are probably [[sun berry|sun berries]], [[hemp]], and [[whip vine]]s.  See the above table summarizing the [[crop]] products, limitations, and values.

Above ground crops will require you to [[trade]] or [[gather plants|gather]] for [[seed]]s, but the best of them that can be [[farming|farmed]] are [[sun berry|sun berries]], which produce [[sunshine]] worth 25☼.
