FarmVille Thanksgiving Items: Pilgrim Cabin, Cow Balloon and more

As we celebrate Thanksgiving in the US, if you can spare a few minutes while baking / cooking to play some FarmVille, you'll see that a set of new items has launched in the game's Thanksgiving theme. There are new animals, trees, and decorations here, and there's even a building that's available for coins (I know, I was shocked too)! If you're a unicorn lover, you're also in luck with this update. Here's what's available.

Trees


Pecan Tree - 5 Farm Cash
Pistachio Tree - 10 Farm Cash

The Pecan Tree is the only one of this pair that you actually need to purchase, as the Pistachio Tree can come for free from Mystery Seedlings.

Animals

Harvest Unicorn - 30 Farm Cash
Chicken Turkey - 18 Farm Cash
Big Chicken Turkey - 18 Farm Cash
Frontier Duck - 15 Farm Cash


Yet again, the Chicken Turkeys are two different animals, so you'll need to purchase both if you're the kind that wants all of the animal mastery signs possible in the game.

Buildings


Pilgrim Cabin - 3 million coins

Yes, this building is available for coins - don't fall out of your chair! It's disappointing that it costs so many coins, but I suppose at that point, we can't really complain, as it can be obtained, technically, for free.

Decorations

Pig Balloon - 100,000 coins
Cow Balloon - 3 Farm Cash
Autumn Gourd - 2 Farm Cash

If you'd like to create your own version of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in your farm, here are two more animal balloons to go with the Sheep Balloon that was released previously (also for coins). At least the Cow Balloon only costs 3 Farm Cash, which definitely shouldn't break the bank.

Avatar Costumes

Pilgrim Girl - 10 Farm Cash
Chieftain - 10 Farm Cash

Now, even your in-game avatar can get in on the fun of Turkey Day, by dressing up as either one of the Pilgrims, or a Native American. Remember that you can try on these costumes to see how they look on your avatar before actually spending that much Farm Cash on them.

All of these items will be available in the game's store for the next two weeks. It will be interesting to see if any of them are placed on sale for an in-game Black Friday sale, and if they are, we'll make sure to let you know.
