Ensure that at least one dwarf has the [[plant processing]] labor, then designating plants to be gathered with {{k|d}}esignations menu and selecting the "gather {{k|p}}lants" option, before designating a rectangular area to harvest by a dwarf with the Plant Gathering labor

By default, fortresses embark with [[pig tail]] seeds, which can be grown underground in soft, loamy or muddy ground. The other kinds of plant fibers can be obtained, if the corresponding plants are growing naturally above ground, by assigning a dwarf the [[plant gathering]] labor, then designating plants to be gathered in an area with {{k-|d|p}}. Alternatively, to repeatedly gather plants from a specific area, you can set up a plant gathering zone by pressing {{k|i}}, selecting the desired area to be gathered from, and enabling the "{{k|g}}ather/pick fruit" option - in this case, dwarves with the "plant gathering" labor automatically tend to the zone as soon as new naturally-occurring vegetation can be harvested. '''Warning!''' naturally occurring plant fibers are uncommon; you can try to scope out any of the above plants with the loo{{k|k}} command to find suitable areas to gather from, but it might be more worthwhile to wait until you can [[trading|trade]] for their seeds.
