'''Joan''' (カブリバ, ''Kaburiba'') is a [[Special Visitor|special visitor]] who comes to the [[player|player's]] [[town]] each Sunday morning (6 AM to 12 PM) to sell [[turnip]]s. She is a brown boar with large white tusks carrying a basket on her back with white turnips inside. She wears ragged blue clothes and a small, blue bandana on her head. In {{PG}} and {{NL}}, Joan only sells one type of turnip, however, in {{WW}} and {{CF}}, she sells two types of turnips.
+
'''Joan''', also known as '''Sow Joan''', is a [[boar]] in the {{SER}} who visits the [[player]]'s [[town]] each Sunday morning to sell [[turnip]]s. The name "Sow Joan" is a reference to the real-life stock market index, the {{Wp|Dow Jones Industrial Average}}. She often mentions how she has been selling turnips for around sixty years.

==Turnips==
+
 
−
Joan's background is unknown, but she appears in town before noon (12 PM) in every {{SER}} game so far. In {{PG}}, she sells [[white turnip]]s. White turnips sell for a different price depending on the Stalk Market. The Stalk Market is a play on the existent Stock Market in reality. Unlimited white turnips can be bought each week from Joan. Players can ask Tom Nook what white turnips are currently selling for at two different times of the day, which will have different prices and he will buy white turnips between Monday and Saturday.
+
In {{NH}}, Joan's role of selling turnips is instead fulfilled by her young granddaughter, [[Daisy Mae]].

[[File:Joan DnM.png|thumb|100px|Artwork of Joan from {{DnM}}.]]
 +
Joan is a brown boar who wears a blue dress with a white hood, and work pants with pound-sign patterns. She has a yellow nose, black hair, large orange cheeks, a pair of white tusks and a basket with turnips on her back. Her hands and feet are also yellow. Her eyes have beige circle linings, white rims, and black pupils shaped like diamond stars.
 +
 
 +
===Personality===
 +
Joan likes selling turnips, sharing this trait with her granddaughter, Daisy Mae.
 +
 
 +
===Voice===
 +
Joan is one of two characters in ''Animal Crossing'' who has a unique voice from all other characters. The other character who shares this trait is [[Farley]].

 +
[[File:Joan PG.png|thumb|left|100px|Artwork of Joan from {{PG|nolink}}]]
 +
In {{DnM}} and {{PG}}, Joan appears in town every Sunday before noon, selling turnips to the player. Unlimited white turnips can be bought each week from Joan, which can be sold to Tom Nook, which will have different prices depending on the "Stalk Market." These turnips are only profitable between Monday and Saturday.
 +
 
 +
If the player travels on the [[train]], Joan can be seen sleeping in the background, occasionally waking up in surprise, before going back to sleep.

===In {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}===
 +
[[File:WW Joan.png|thumb|Joan selling turnips in {{WW|nolink}}]]
 +
In {{WW}}, she continues to sell turnips, though she now also sells [[red turnip]] seeds for 1,000 [[Bell]]s which can be planted in the ground and must be watered each day so they can grow to their full potential and later sold to [[Tom Nook]] for profit. Only one red turnip can be sold to the player each week. Her appearance in {{CF}} is functionally identical to {{WW|nolink}}.
 +
 
 +
===In {{NL|short|nolink}}===
 +
[[File:NL Joan.jpg|thumb|left|Joan selling turnips in {{NL|nolink}}]]
 +
In {{NL}}, Joan no longer sells red turnips. However, she will let the player buy more than 990 turnips, unlike {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}. Joan can be asked to explain her business and turnips. She wishes not to explain how it works, but will not complain if prompted.

===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
−
In {{WW}} and {{CF}}, she continues to sell [[white turnip]]s which work the same way as they did in the original games. She now also sells [[red turnip]] seeds for 1,000 [[Bells]] which will need to be planted like [[flower]]s, and be watered each day so they can grow to their full potential and later sold to [[Tom Nook]] for profit. Only one red turnip can be sold to player(s) each week.
+
[[File:NH Joan Mention.jpg|thumb|A quote for a three-star island from Daisy Mae in {{NH|nolink}} that mentions Joan]]
 +
Joan is sometimes indirectly mentioned by her granddaughter, Daisy Mae, who refers to her as "Gram-Gram." Additionally, {{I|Joan's poster|NH}} can be obtained from [[Nook Shopping]] after inviting her to [[Harv's Island|Photopia]] via her [[amiibo]]. Since the {{NHVer|2.0}} Update, Joan can visit [[The Roost]]. She will bring Daisy Mae along if invited to The Roost. She can also be scanned into Photopia via her amiibo card.
  
−
In {{NL}}, she returns to selling white turnips only, but will let the player buy more than 990 turnips, unlike {{WW}} and {{CF}}. [[Reese]] now runs the Stalk Market, at [[Re-Tail]].
+
In {{HHP}}, she can be found in the [[hospital]] every Monday. If talked to, she will give the player turnips for free. Joan will have a 50% chance of giving the player 30 turnips, 30% chance of giving the player 50 turnips, and 20% chance of giving the player 100 turnips.
  
−
Joan can be asked to explain her store and turnips, but she wishes not to explain how her store works. However, she does not act gloomy while explaining.

[[File:aF Joan Visit Sunday.png|thumb|left|Joan visiting town on a Sunday to sell turnips in {{aF|nolink}}]]
 +
In the [[Board Game]] mode in {{aF}}, Joan visits town each Sunday to sell turnips to the players. She also appears as a standard visitor; if a player lands on a special-event space while she is visiting, she either gives the player 10 to 30 turnips or makes them pay 1,000 Bells to "help make things right" after her turnip field was vandalized.

Joan, also known as Sow Joan, is a boar in the Animal Crossing series who visits the player's town each Sunday morning to sell turnips. The name "Sow Joan" is a reference to the real-life stock market index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average. She often mentions how she has been selling turnips for around sixty years.

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Joan's role of selling turnips is instead fulfilled by her young granddaughter, Daisy Mae.

Appearances[edit]

In Animal Crossing[edit]

Artwork of Joan from Animal Crossing

In Doubutsu no Mori and Animal Crossing, Joan appears in town every Sunday before noon, selling turnips to the player. Unlimited white turnips can be bought each week from Joan, which can be sold to Tom Nook, which will have different prices depending on the "Stalk Market." These turnips are only profitable between Monday and Saturday.

If the player travels on the train, Joan can be seen sleeping in the background, occasionally waking up in surprise, before going back to sleep.

In Wild World and City Folk[edit]

Joan selling turnips in Animal Crossing: Wild World

In Animal Crossing: Wild World, she continues to sell turnips, though she now also sells red turnip seeds for 1,000 Bells which can be planted in the ground and must be watered each day so they can grow to their full potential and later sold to Tom Nook for profit. Only one red turnip can be sold to the player each week. Her appearance in Animal Crossing: City Folk is functionally identical to Animal Crossing: Wild World.

In New Leaf[edit]

Joan selling turnips in Animal Crossing: New Leaf

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Joan no longer sells red turnips. However, she will let the player buy more than 990 turnips, unlike Wild World and City Folk. Joan can be asked to explain her business and turnips. She wishes not to explain how it works, but will not complain if prompted.

In New Horizons[edit]

A quote for a three-star island from Daisy Mae in Animal Crossing: New Horizons that mentions Joan

Joan is sometimes indirectly mentioned by her granddaughter, Daisy Mae, who refers to her as "Gram-Gram." Additionally, Joan's poster can be obtained from Nook Shopping after inviting her to Photopia via her amiibo. Since the 2.0 Update, Joan can visit The Roost. She will bring Daisy Mae along if invited to The Roost. She can also be scanned into Photopia via her amiibo card.

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise, she can be found in the hospital every Monday. If talked to, she will give the player turnips for free. Joan will have a 50% chance of giving the player 30 turnips, 30% chance of giving the player 50 turnips, and 20% chance of giving the player 100 turnips.

In amiibo Festival[edit]

Joan visiting town on a Sunday to sell turnips in Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival

In the Board Game mode in Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival, Joan visits town each Sunday to sell turnips to the players. She also appears as a standard visitor; if a player lands on a special-event space while she is visiting, she either gives the player 10 to 30 turnips or makes them pay 1,000 Bells to "help make things right" after her turnip field was vandalized.

Description NTSC-U: Joan has been in the business of selling turnips for about 60 years now, and she'll happily explain the basics when you talk to her. Taking the risk is entirely up to you, though. If you take the plunge, you'll want to check the prices often. It doesn't hurt to ask your friends about their prices too.
