40d:Gather plants
Revision as of 15:17, 29 July 2008 by StrawberryBunny (talk | contribs) (Changed the second sentence to make it a tiny bit clearer about where to find the Gather Plants option. Not a big deal, I just saw it and thought it was awkward for someone who didn't know anything.)
Gather plants is a designation that sets up jobs to harvest wild plants, also known as shrubs. You assign dwarves to gather plants by the designate -> gather plants menu, then selecting the opposites corners of a square within which all harvestable plants will be designated.
Gathering plants uses the herbalism skill.
This is a good way to get some seeds that you cannot select at the start screen. This is less efficent than Farming.
