Did you know that sometimes Zynga will make it where there is an autobuild for the new quest?  There is no rhyme or reason when they will do this.  It's easy to find out if there is an autobuild though, you just go to the general store and click on crops.  Hover over the newest limited time crop and check out the recipes.  USUALLY the recipe with the different color background SHOULD give you the autobuild but it doesn't always work that way.  You simply click on each one, if there is an autobuild then it will do it for you, if not well then you simply use your family to get all items you need.  If you're not that far yet, then you have to post or ask to get all you need.  There are plenty of groups on facebook to join to get help with these builds/quests.

If you have a problem playing the game on facebook, you can always go to zynga.com and play there.  (Be sure to link it to your facebook game so that EVERYTHING you do will be done there or you have two separate games.)   As you can see in the picture below, you can share your game posts with others playing and get help that way as well.
