Perhaps there could be an upgrade card, probably pretty darn pricey, that could enable us to teach our garden gnome to garden. The gnome woud need inventory slots so we could give him a hoe, seeds, etc. We could place him at a garden and he would tend to it for us. There could be a series of gnome upgrade cards so the gnome could tend different sized gardens. If the gnome's slots got full he'd stop, and complain about it when you walked by.
