Funny you should mention that... I've been working on a companion set to the food with various containers (boxes/crates, barrels, bags/sacks, and now glassware). Most of the open containers are designed to either fit the produce or the gem contents (see example), so you could theoretically fill them with anything by overlaying.
Most of the glass stuff I have is adapted from here: https://opengameart.org/content/recolor-all-the-items . I haven't decided yet whether the color/style adaptation is appropriate for the LPC yet. What do you think?
So I thought I was done with the food, but things have gotten even more out of hand. I added a few tropical fruits (starfruit, figs), as well as some more recolors/variations. But I've also expanded to cheese, eggs, bread, meat, and fish. Additional seafood seems inevitable; I'm currently thinking a few shellfish (crab, lobster, oyster, mussel, scallop, shrimp), maybe eel.
The LPC base assets have some shadow tiles; I usually put a layer above the background/terrain and below the building itself and draw the shadows there. You can see an example on my colonial tiles: https://opengameart.org/content/lpc-colonial-buildings . It's a bit finicky and I wasn't super careful about it, so you can see some mistakes in the preview even.
OK, an update! I added 3 mushrooms, jackfruit, breadfruit, papaya, pecans, peanuts, walnuts, almonds, and cashews! I also added a few more little squash (including the pan patty!) Now there's only two slots left...
I'll have to experiment with the fruit on the tree, but to look good they probably need to be partially covered by the leaves?
As for the trees... maybe at some point. The tree fruits I would be inclined to just reuse some existing trees for the most part, just making an overlay with the fruits, maybe with 1 or 2 stages of ripening. For the other stuff that grows on bushes/plants or vines/trellises, initially I wanted to make growing plant versions of everything. I did it for some of them, but I was just kinda copying and pasting stuff from daneeklu's set and it didn't look very good. The plants take a little more research and creativity to do right so they actually look different. I guess I would feel more motivated if I knew someone was specifically working on a farming sim type game and would have use for all those sprites :p
Cool ideas! What kind of edible flowers are common? I'll do the nuts; jackfruit and breadfruit are pretty different from anything else, but similar to each other, so should be easy. I feel like asian pears look too much like apples... same with quince (vs pears), although I guess I could make some more colors of pears. Purple cabbage is there already (under red cabbage)!

Would love to see your jars and bottles!

It's in the LPC base assets https://opengameart.org/content/liberated-pixel-cup-lpc-base-assets-spri... UI, for anyone else looking

Looks like Nikita Sadkov is back. Don't feed the trolls, folks.
Looks like the site's SSL certificate expired yesterday and needs to be updated.
Dragonfruit is in there already (next to pineapple). But plums are a good idea!
