Welcome to Zielonka, a picturesque Central European landscape that has become one of the three basic starting maps in Farming Simulator 25. While many farmers immediately rush into growing new crops, experienced players know that the best start is a little exploration of the surroundings. Zielonka hides a specific treasure – 50 Golden Apples.
This collecting passion is primarily about money. For every apple found, you get $5,000, which adds up to a respectable $250,000 after finding all fifty pieces. That’s an amount that will secure you a top-tier tractor or the purchase of key plots of land right at the start of the game. A bonus is unlocking the “Tutti-Frutti” achievement. Before you head out, leave the heavy machinery in the garage and go on foot or take a small car.
Northern Industrial Loop (Sawmill and Canneries)
Our journey begins at the very north of the map, where the scent of fresh wood mixes with processed vegetables.
The first apple is hidden in the residential area behind the house of the NPC Noah [1564, 310]. You will find the second one in the working area of the Sawmill, cleverly hidden behind a large gray container [1651, 375]. From there, head a little east to the forest near Field 105, where the third catch lies in an animal feeder [1651, 214].
Now move northwest to the Preserved Food Factory. It’s teeming with apples here. One lies on a table by the floral decoration right next to the building [623, 490], the second can be found next to a green bench [694, 311], and the third is placed in front of a brown house in the immediate neighborhood [702, 432].
While you are here, run behind the Carpentry for an apple on some crates [586, 299] and continue to the Animal Dealer. In the back part of his area, another piece lies by the wall [522, 481]. Close the northern section at Field 16, where the last apple of this area awaits on the stairs of a wooden windmill [1206, 466].
Eastern Railway and Views (Mill and Silos)
This part of the map requires you to look not only under your feet but also high above you.
The dominant feature of the east is the Grain Mill. Here you will find three pieces, but watch out for a tricky one. The first is on the external stairs [1231, 1124], the second in the corner by a concrete block [1192, 1131]. The third is the hardest on the entire map – it is hidden in a small blue pipe on the ground on the western side of the mill [1178, 1134].
Continue along the tracks to the Grain Pool East. A climb to the very top of the silo’s metal staircase awaits you [1702, 1021]. When you climb down, check the ledge of the building right next to the tracks [1716, 1026].
Nature lovers will appreciate the area around Fields 107 and 108. There is a feeder hidden in the forest with an apple [1844, 1008]. Nearby stands a high watchtower, on top of which a reward lies on a bench [1768, 1331]. At Field 109, you must climb (or jump) onto the roof of a white shed [1585, 1758]. The last stop in the east is a picturesque stream near Field 24 – the apple lies on stones under a wooden bridge [1614, 801].
Southern Industrial Zone and The Gas Station Bank
At the Potato Plant, walk around the building and look for a concrete ring/pipe on the ground; the apple is inside [1284, 1433]. At the Biomass Plant, take a rest on a red bench by the wall [917, 1563], and at the Soup Factory, peek behind the pallets on the northeast side [460, 1404].
The most profitable place is the Gas Station. In just a few square meters, you will find four apples:
- In a flower pot by the entrance [432, 1322].
- In the shed next to the red container [455, 1253].
- On the green recycling container [505, 1208].
- On crates in the northern part of the pump area [526, 1234].
Heart of the City: Backyards and Gardens
The center of Zielonka is a maze. You will have to search private properties as well as public spaces.
Start at the Vehicle Shop. The apple lies on the air conditioning fan behind the building [751, 1101]. In the neighborhood, look for a yellow house with flowers; the apple is in the window [608, 1034]. Another window catch is on the ledge of a house with a green roof [540, 1068].
Move to the residential zone around Ben’s House. Here you will find an apple in a garden cart [618, 1327] and right next to it on a table in a wooden gazebo [614, 1248]. Explore the backyards in the area too: one apple is in a wooden crate by a woodshed [531, 1127], another in a yard near the silo [491, 1146].
Children in Zielonka have their hiding places too. One apple is on the slide at the playground [426, 1123], another by the sandbox at a house on the western edge [444, 1109]. Finish the city section at Field 57, where another treasure lies on a tree stump by a shed [677, 1238].
Western Frontier: Parkour and Field Marathon
The western part of the map combines the hardest physical challenge with a longer walk along the edges of the fields.
First, head to the Dairy. Here you must show off your parkour skills – climb up the systems and silos to the blue roof of the main building [465, 1611]. At the Spinnery, it is calmer. You will find the apple by the wall of the curved building (near the court) [870, 1155].
The remaining 13 apples are scattered along the edges of fields and groves. I recommend this route:
- Next to Field 76: Sitting on a green plastic chair [236, 1120].
- Soccer field near Field 68: Beneath a row of white and blue bleachers [299, 1077].
- Near Field 68: In a garbage bin attached to the side of a wooden building to the north of the soccer field [326, 1007].
- Field 44: In a little field behind some houses [607, 937].
- Field 44: A few steps to the west, under a wooden awning [561, 921].
- Field 66: Hidden in a garden by a house [479, 861].
- Piano Factory: On a fence pillar [524, 828].
- Supermarket: On the terrace next to a chair [512, 741].
- Near Field 36: On the ground in a wooden crate [575, 763].
- Near Field 36: On the ground between fences [596, 760].
- Animal Dealer: On a wooden crate in a small box, quite hard to see [710, 602].
- Next to Animal Dealer: In a grove of trees on the steps of a hunting tower [621, 574].
- Next to Animal Dealer: In the window of a small stone building in the shade of trees [668, 540].
If you have made it this far, you have all 50 apples in your pocket, $250,000 in your account, and the “Tutti-Frutti” achievement unlocked. Now you can buy your equipment in peace and start farming.
