| Family | Pierre (Husband) Abigail (Daughter) |
Caroline is the wife of Pierre and the mother of Abigail, and she lives with them in the rooms behind Pierre's General Store. She is a warm, sociable woman who loves her plants, her sunroom and her morning routines. Her greatest gift to a farm is tea. Her two-heart event opens her private sunroom and leads to the Tea Sapling recipe, which turns cheap foraged seeds into Tea Bushes and a steady supply of Green Tea. She also sends recipes by mail as her friendship grows. Her worries about her daughter and her husband give the store family much of its story.
Lore
Caroline is friendly to everyone and calls the farmer "sweetie". She grows vegetables in a little garden behind the house and tends a Tea Bush in her sunroom, which she treats as her quiet sanctuary. She enjoys foraging tips, aerobics and a cup of tea in peace.
At home she worries about Abigail. She wishes her daughter would spend less time shut in her room and would go back to her natural light chestnut hair. She also struggles with the occult interests Abigail loves. Caroline is often frustrated with Pierre too, because he works long hours and pays little attention to his family. At the Flower Dance she wishes Pierre would spend the time with them.
She notes that the previous owners built the altar room in the house. The family is not religious, but they let other townsfolk use it.
Schedule
Most mornings Caroline is in the kitchen of Pierre's General Store, and on many days she then spends time in her sunroom by the Tea Bush. On a regular day she stands in the town square with her friend Jodi in the early afternoon and is home by four. She goes to bed around nine.
Her weekly habits make her easy to find. On Tuesdays she hosts an aerobics class in the house. On Wednesdays she sits by the fountain west of the Community Center, and on Fridays she reads among the bookshelves of the Museum. On Saturdays, once the Community Center is restored, she reads in its main room. On Sundays she stands under the tree south of the Community Center in the afternoon. On rainy days she stays in, reading in her bedroom.
She keeps a check-up at Harvey's Clinic in Fall and visits the Night Market in Winter. She may also spend a random day at the Beach Resort on Ginger Island once it opens.
Relationships
Caroline is married to Pierre, and their marriage is a common subject of town gossip. Jodi calls Caroline her best friend and says she can tell her anything. The two chat in the town square most days. Caroline's Tuesday aerobics class brings together Jodi, Marnie, Emily and Robin.
Gifts
Caroline loves Green Tea, Summer Spangle, the Fish Taco and Tropical Curry, as well as the universal loves. Green Tea is the natural choice once her sunroom event is done, because her own Tea Sapling recipe makes the leaves for it. Summer Spangle is the cheapest of her loves, since the flower grows quickly from inexpensive seeds in Summer.
She likes Tea Leaves, Daffodils and Wild Horseradish. She says she will turn the horseradish into a spicy cocktail sauce for Pierre. Most other forage is a poor choice, because she dislikes many mushrooms, spring onions, leeks, Snow Yams and Winter Roots. She also dislikes Mayonnaise and Duck Mayonnaise, even though her loved Fish Taco is made with mayonnaise. She hates Quartz and Salmonberry.
At the Movie Theater she loves Journey Of The Prairie King: The Motion Picture and The Brave Little Sapling. Her favourite snacks are Jasmine Tea, Stardrop Sorbet and Truffle Popcorn.
These gifts are the ones this villager loves most.

Heart Events
At any friendship above zero, Caroline may mail the farmer a vegetable from her garden, such as a Cauliflower, Parsnip or Potato. The chance grows with friendship.
At two hearts, entering the sunroom through her kitchen on a dry day between nine and five starts the scene. Caroline proudly shows off her private sunroom and offers a cup of her home-grown Green Tea. A dreamlike sequence follows. Afterwards she invites the farmer to relax there any time, and the Tea Sapling recipe arrives in the mail. Crafting Wild Seeds with Fiber and Wood makes the sapling, so it is one of the cheapest long-term money makers on the farm.
At three hearts she sends the Parsnip Soup recipe, which is amusing because Pierre hates Parsnip Soup.
At six hearts, the farmer walks into the store and finds Caroline and Abigail arguing in the kitchen. Abigail demands to live her own life and dress as she likes. Caroline reminds her that she lives at home for free, then admits her daughter is right and apologises. Abigail hears someone at the door, and the farmer slips away unseen.
At seven hearts she mails a recipe for vegetable stew. Cooking it makes Vegetable Medley.
Notes
Caroline starts the Carving Pumpkins quest by letter late in Fall. She wants a Pumpkin so she and Abigail can carve it for Spirit's Eve. Pumpkins take a long time to grow, so a crop planted early in Fall is the easy way to be ready. The reward is 500g and a heart of friendship. She may also post requests on the Help Wanted board outside the store, which pay three times the item's price.
