+# Step 1: Pruning Pests
+
+Thanks for signing on to the farm, friend!
+That's mighty kind of you.
+We sure do appreciate it.
+
+What we'll need from you first is help narrowing down the names of our fruits.
+We know what we grow, but these darn type systems don't.
+Can you help us out with a function to return whether a string is a known crop name?
+
+## Specification
+
+Export a type predicate function named `isCropName` that takes in a name of type `string`.
+It should return whether the data is one of the keys of the type of the existing `cropFamilies` object.
+
+## Files
+
+- `index.ts`: Write your `isCropName` function here
+- `index.test.ts`: Tests verifying `isCropName`
+- `solution.ts`: Solution code
+
+## Notes
+
+- The function's return type should be an explicit type predicate with the `is` keyword

+# Step 2: Plant Particulars
+
+Well, I'll be darned!
+You blew through that first step faster than a dog chasing a roadrunner.
+Hee-yah!
+
+Our second request of you is to deal with is weeding.
+We're sick and tired of these invasive weeds in our dadgum farm!
+They're just about as welcome as a rattlesnake at a square dance.
+
+Can you help us write a function that filters data to just a known crop we want to grow?
+That'd be mighty useful in helping us skedaddle out those worrisome weeds.
+
+## Specification
+
+Export a type predicate function named `isAnyCrop` that takes in data of type `unknown`.
+It should return whether the data is an object that matches the existing `AnyCrop` interface.
+
+> Tip: when a value is type `object`, TypeScript won't allow you to access a property unless you check first that the property's key is `in` the value:
+>
+> ```ts
+> function checkValue(value: unknown) {
+> 	if (!!value && typeof value === "object" && "key" in value) {
+> 		console.log(value.key);
+> 	}
+> }
+> ```

+# Step 3: Picking Pears
+
+Well, narrow my types and call me a structurally matched type.
+Aren't you just the most type-safe cowboy this side of the Sammamish River!
+
+Our next and final request of you is to deal with a juicy one.
+You're going to help us harvest some succulent cactus pears!
+They make a mighty fine jam, if I do say so myself.
+
+We can give you a whole array of potential cacti.
+We'll need you to return back all the cacti with fruits.
+
+## Specification
+
+Export two functions:
+
+- `isFruitBearingCactus`: a type predicate function named that takes in data of the provided `Cactus` interface and returns whether data is type `FruitBearingCactus`
+- `pickFruitBearingCacti`: a function that takes an array of `Cactus` objects and returns an array consisting of all the `FruitBearingCactus` elements
