FarmVille Winter Holiday items start the Christmas celebration early

If anything, we won't be able to say that we weren't given enough time to purchase Winter Holiday items in FarmVille this year, as a series of items has already launched in the game's store for your purchase. Granted, these three items - two trees and one animal - are all re-releases from previous themes, but if you're new to the game, or like to celebrate the holidays all-year round, you'll want to take a look at the three that are available now, as they won't make it in the store until December.

The two trees are the Ornament Tree I and Ornament Tree II. For the sake of argument, we'll call them Orange and Blue, respectively. The Blue tree is available for free as a Mystery Seedling when you have an Orange one in an Orchard, or claim them from friends, so there's no reason to pay the whopping price tag of 15 Farm Cash on one here. As for the 20 Farm Cash price on the Orange tree, well, don't even get me started on how cheap these trees were the first time they were in the game...

For the animal in this release, we see the Candy Cane Pony come back around. This one was first available during the Winter Holiday event last year, but wasn't seen until the beginning of December - that's a whole month early, all things considered! It can be purchased from the store for 24 Farm Cash - the same price we were given for the animal last year.

If we're already seeing Winter Holiday items released in the store, and Halloween is barely over, I have to admit I'm more than just a bit excited about the possibilities for this theme as the weeks go on. Will this be the biggest "Christmas-season" in FarmVille yet? We'll make sure to let you know either way.
