==History==
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.

Joan is first featured in {{DnM}}, as well as its updated GameCube version {{PG}}. In both games, she appears in town every Sunday before noon (12 PM), selling [[white turnip]]s 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}} 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.
 
  
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]].

Joan is first featured in Doubutsu no Mori, as well as its updated GameCube version Animal Crossing. In both games, she appears in town every Sunday before noon (12 PM), selling white 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.

Animal Crossing: Wild World

In Animal Crossing: Wild World, she continues to sell white turnips, though she now also sells red turnip seeds for 1,000 Bells which will need to be planted like flowers, 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.

Animal Crossing: City Folk

Joan CF.png

Joan returns once again in Animal Crossing: City Folk, functionally no different than her appearance in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Joan returns to selling white turnips only, not selling red turnips in this game. However, she will let the player buy more than 990 turnips, unlike Wild World and City Folk. Reese now runs the Stalk Market, at Re-Tail.

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.
