I only hire solo. If the person has tools fine, if not, I go find something else to do, in real life, while the hired person takes their time getting things finished. In all fairness to others who do hire multiple people, I am retired so I am not farming around a full time job.

I do not understand the purpose of hiring more than one person either, but some people still do it.

I am sure if you continue to work the market you will find people willing to hire you. If someone advertises no tools I always hire them for harvest and plow. Trees, flowers, etc I try to find someone with tools since most people without tools do not finish the job since for those two items I have so many.

Hope things pick up for you.

I DO work around a full time job AND 2 young kids.... I love my farm but my time is limited. I don't have hours to kill as one tool-less worker plods their way through 12 farms... and so I multi-hire. Not an excessive number of people. 3 or 4 at the most. I don't apologise for this. it's what I have to do to enjoy the game.

I can appreciate your time is limited with your job and family. Lucky you to be able to work and have kids.

How about instead of hiring 3-4 people for every farm you have...you hire one person for 3 or 4 and another for a different 3 or 4.....and so on and so on. That way you still get it done as fast.....but each person you hire gets their own little corner of your world to work.
