  Your Homestead grows and changes with the seasons, and now is the perfect time to indulge in some seasonal Valentine's Day treats. Whether you're a botanist looking to grow a Candy Tree, a fisherman seeking some special goodies or an interior-decorating shopaholic, Candy Bonanza offers something for every homebody.

  Event Dates:

  Event Details:
  Homestead Candy Bonanza is actually three events in one!
  
  Homestead Candy Bonanza Event
  

  
  
  • Select a main character for the event period (one per account) and plant a Candy Tree in your Homestead.

    You can plant different size trees based on the level of your Homestead.
    
  • Use the Herbalism skill to gather Candy Jars from your tree every day, and use the Candy Tree Dye Ampoules found inside to paint your tree every day. Trees reset and can be harvested (then painted) once again every day at 12 AM Pacific time.
    
  • As you paint your tree, you'll earn Homestead Candy Bonanza Event Coupons. These coupons are redeemed to Caravan Joe for a variety of prizes, including Heart Fireworks, Dye Ampoules, Heart Swords or even a Knitwear Penguin Whistle! The more coupons you turn in, the better the reward.
    

  
  Please Note: Even if you participated in this event previously you may participate again. However, you may not have more than one of each size tree. Only one main character may earn event rewards, though alternate characters can still decorate their Homestead with Candy Trees by purchasing them with Pons.
  
  Homestead Items On Sale!
  

  
  
  • During the event period, Homestead growth is significantly faster, and Homestead items which can be purchased with Pons are 50\% off! Furthermore, Caravan Joe is selling the materials you need to make your property beautiful.
    

  
  
  Homestead Fishing Event
  

  
  
  • In addition to a nice variety of Homestead building supplies, Caravan Joe is selling Candy Bait! Grab some and get to fishing; you could nab instruments, tools, skill books, and Candy Jars for painting your tree.

  Cute penguin. Sold! I'll get started on the event when I return to Spain so I'll be behind by 4-5 days. Oh wells.

  All this talk of dye amps has me confused. Are you mistaking this for the dye well event, or am I forgetting how the candy tree one works?

  Skill books? I hope there will be some from Karu Dungeon, because I can't even express how much am I sick of running it over and over without a single drop.

  [FONT="Arial"]Well the last event's best book was Making Pasta. So I doubt it'll be in this one, but who knows if they changed it! [/FONT]

  This is an event I don't mind to see coming back again.

  Does upgrading the tree have any benefits? Or is it only about looks?
  
  EDIT: Found out myself. Bigger tree yields more jars.

  I appreciate this event, this is my first time taking part in it! The rewards seem pretty generous too.

  Guys, I have a question.. is anyone having problems with this event or am I doing something wrong? I talked to the NPC and gave me the candy tree seed, I went to my homestead and tried to use it but theres no ''use'' option, it only gives me ''pick up'', ''drop'' and ''destroy'' option when I right click on it. Mayebe theres something else I needed to do? I have the trees and well on this account but its on a different character, with this character I dont have the trees, I only have a cherry blossom, cookie and an apple tree o~o
