This article is about Ann, a character from Harvest Moon 64. You may be looking for Ann for her other appearances throughout the series.

Ann (ラン Ran?) is a bachelorette in Harvest Moon 64.

Ann lives on her family's farm, the Green Ranch, and adores animals (especially horses). She lives with her over-protective older brother, Gray, and their gruff father, Doug. Ann's family raises every kind of livestock in the game, so she is an expert at caring for sheep, cows, and chickens. However, wild animals are one of the few things that can decrease her usually high spirits.

Ann is bold, always saying what is on her mind, and a bit of a tomboy. She sometimes feels that being feminine is important, and is annoyed by Popuri's femininity. Her best friend in town is Karen, whom she is extremely close to. As Ann's affection for the player increases, she will begin to share "secrets" to successfully raising animals, and will also (if the player has befriended Gray too) begin to wonder about whether or not she should meddle in her bother's budding relationship with Popuri.

If the player does not to marry Ann, she will eventually settle down with Cliff a wanderer (and coincidentally, Karen's cousin) instead.
