Collect vegetables and the scoring cards that determine their value. Because scoring cards come from the same deck, drafting changes both your collection and your goals.

Your goal

Have the most points when all scoring-card piles and the vegetable market are empty.

The flow of play

  1. Draft one face-up point card or two vegetable cards from the market

  2. Optionally flip one of your point cards into a vegetable; vegetables cannot be flipped back

  3. Refill the market and, when all cards are taken, score each player’s point cards
