Hazel is a young woman who inherits a plot of land from her grandfather—a seemingly idyllic gift with a massive catch. The "Marronnier Farm" is located exactly adjacent to the Imperial Palace, the most heavily guarded and politically sensitive area in the empire. While the Emperor and his knights are used to dealing with assassins and political coups, they are entirely unprepared for Hazel's arrival. Armed only with her grandfather's advice and a determination to live a peaceful agricultural life, Hazel begins digging her soil, planting seeds, and building a fence right under the nose of the imperial nobility.

What follows is a hilarious and heartwarming clash of cultures. As Hazel focuses on crop rotations and high-quality manure, the palace officials are convinced she must be a master spy or a powerful magician playing a long-term game. The tension between the rigid, high-stakes life of the court and Hazel's slow-paced, wholesome farming creates constant friction. However, as the delicious scents of home-cooked meals and the sight of blooming flora begin to cross the palace walls, even the coldest knights and the Emperor himself find their curiosity piqued.

What to Expect

My Farm by the Palace offers a masterful blend of "Otome Isekai" aesthetics with pure slice-of-life comedy. Unlike many manhwa that focus on revenge or high-speed level-ups, this series prioritizes cozy world-building and character dynamics. Expect a "slow-life" pace where the primary conflict comes from the misunderstanding of Hazel's simple intentions versus the palace's paranoia. The art by Ollcha is vibrant and detailed, especially when depicting agricultural bounty and luxurious imperial settings.
