    Ivy's Hut for the second item. Dead trees for every item.
    Cows, bushes. Item 1 30 min
    Trees, Ivy. Item 2. 90 min, oddly first one was 90 min, now it's 2 hours
    Butler, sawmills, 60 min

    Wells work for Zombie maid.

    The 4 hour adventure is in the event crafting building.

    Items 1 and 2 require 6 each of the dead tree item, so if we need 22 of each to finish, we will need 484 of those items.
