As some of you may know, from watching my live streams, I am a Graphic Designer and Gamer.
These two professions have come together in more ways than one and they always seem to find a
way to rub off on one another. This Stardew Valley Indie Guide is where my love of gaming, meets
my love of graphic design and gets mashed together to create this helpful, unofficial guide, filled
with all sorts of tips and tricks I have learned while playing, both solo and with you watching. Some
of the things in this guide have been inspired by you, my viewers, who have offered your own tips to
me while playing live. That being said, Id like to dedicate this guide to my super fantastical viewers
as my way of saying thanks!
Thank you & Enjoy!

into useful items.
E. Krobus

because he is too sensitive to sunlight to go outside. He is also a merchant who sells a variety of

Quick Money Tip by Welpthatsawkward
Making money in the beginning can be hard and fishing
is an easy way to make money, fast! Fishing can net you
anywhere from 400g to 700g. While it may not sound like
much, it will help a lot while waiting for your crops to grow.
You can self sustain from algae, or seaweed that you
can catch while fishing that way you dont have to worry
about energy, which we all know can be a big problem in
the beginning.
Crimson Co-Op member Welpthatsawkward won the

Fantastical Tip contest on our subscriber-only Discord.

choosing your farm type
When the player first creates a new character,
part of their choice includes selecting a Farm
Type. Each farm offers unique benefits, looks
different, favors specific skills and require the
player to use different tactics to turn a profit. Your
farm house exterior will look the same, no matter
the farm type you choose, but the interior will be
decorated to reflect the theme of your farm.
Choose your farm type wisely, once you make

your selection and begin the game, you cannot
change your farm type for that character. For
more information, watch my YouTube video How
to Choose your Farm Type.

one of the greatest games of 2016. And the coolest part about the game,
it was developed by ONE man, ConcernedApe. He did everything you see
from start to release in about 4 years time and I couldnt be more impressed.
So, a big thank you to him for making this robust, fun, and captivating game
that revolves around a simple concept - sprucing up your farm and becoming
a valuable & friendly citizen of Stardew Valley.
Welcome to the Farm

After quitting your corporate job
behind a desk that you were tired of,
you find a letter from your Grandpa
who has left you his pride and joy, his
farm located in Stardew Valley.
Your arrival is welcoming and you are

greeted by Robin, the local Carpenter,
and Mayor Lewis. They show you your
new farm, in its current state, which
is overgrown and lackluster, to say
the least. Your house is small and your
farm is a mess but the possibilities are
big and you know you can bring the
place back to life, and make Grandpa
proud of you.

season) and you must keep the area
directly surrounding them clear for
them to grow properly. Unlike crops,
Fruit Trees will not die between seasons,
they simply wont produce fruit until
the following year. There are no limits
to the number of years that can be
played.

Weather
The current weather has an effect on
game play. While it may be windy, or
cloudy on some days, the only weather
you really need to pay attention to are
the ones that may alter your day and
those are rain and storms.
When it is raining, you dont need to

water your crops. And some villagers

What you may not know, is that the
day after a storm, you will want to go
to the beach and tide pools, as many
shells and other valuables have an
increased chance to wash up to
shore the day after storms.
Planting Crops
To make money to buy things you
need, you will need to plant crops. To plant crops, you will need to use waste your energy watering every day.

growing crops
In Stardew Valley, growing crops will be on the things you need to do in order to succeed and progress
in the game. Not only is it a great source of money, it will also provide you with cooking ingredients for
recipes, gifts for villagers, Community Center bundle items, and quest items.
Crops are seasonal and can only be grown outdoors in Spring, Summer, and Fall. If you have the
Greenhouse, you can grow crops inside the Greenhouse without the season restrictions and grow
crops during Winter. It is important to remember, at the end of a season, crops will die on the first day
of the new season. Pay attention to grow times and season restrictions. If you are making your own
seeds, instead of buying them, plan ahead and have your seeds ready to plant on the 1st day of the
new season. Crops have a quality when harvested that can increase their value. Quality ranges from
Basic, Silver (1.25x), Gold (1.5x) and Iridium (2x) displayed on the crop as a colored star.
general tips
Grow Times
The day you plant your seeds does not count towards the grow time. Each crop has its own grow time which is
listed on the seed packet. Pay attention to these times and make sure to get them planted with enough time to
harvest.
Scarecrows
If there is not a Scarecrow in the vicinity of your
crops, a crow can eat your crops (which removes
them). Scarecrows will protect an 8x8 area of
space vertically and horizontally and a 6x6 area
of space diagonally from its location. This area is
a total protected circular space of 249 spaces
surrounding the Scarecrow. Rarecrows protect
the same area as regular Scarecrows and are
purely cosmetic. There are 8 Rarecrows that can
be collected in Stardew Valley.
Scarecrows can be crafted after achieving Farming

Level 1 and require 50 Wood, 1 Coal, and 20 Fiber
to craft.
Giant Crops
Trellis Crops There is a chance of Cauliflower, Melon and Pumpkin growing

for harvesting, even if you cant. This can allow you to
plant trellis crops in big square grids.
It is important to keep this in mind when planting so

you can access all the crops when they are ready
to harvest. I like to plant mine on the edge of a
garden plot, in a single row so I can walk on all
sides of the crop, but double rows could work also.
You need access to at least one side to harvest.

fruit trees
Fruit trees take 28 days to mature so it is best to plant them before the season they bloom. Fruit trees will produce 1
fruit each day it is in season after becoming fully grown and will accumulate up to 3 fruit between harvests. They do
not require water or tilled soil and will not die in Winter. To plant and grow, they require a clear 3x3 space. Can also
be grown inside the Greenhouse which will produce fruit year-round, no matter the season. As they age, higher
quality fruit can be harvested, up to gold quality (as of update 1.07).
The potential profit of fruit trees are quite high. While the individual fruit is not worth much and you will take a
loss the first season selling fruit individually, making Jam (in Preserves Jar) or Fruit Juice (in Kegs) can make these
little fruits worth a whole lot more. Fruit trees can be a worthwhile investment if crafted into Artisan Goods.
Fruit Tree Saplings are sold year-round at Pierres Shop, but may also be purchased occasionally at the Traveling
Merchant, sometimes at a reduced price, sometimes at an inflated price.

Obtaining & Planting Ancient Fruit Seeds

Ancient Fruit seeds can be acquired five different ways;
1. Purchased from the Traveling Merchant for 400 - 700 gold. Rarely stocked.
2. By donating an Ancient Seed artifact to Gunther at the Museum, you will be rewarded with 1 seed pack and
the crafting recipe for Ancient Seeds. The Ancient Seed Artifact can be found by digging worms in the
Forest or Mountains, or by fishing in a treasure chest.
3. Crafting (see line 2).
4. Placing Ancient Fruit into the Seed Maker, yields 1 - 3 seeds.
5. Placing any crop into the Seed Maker, 0.5% chance of yielding an Ancient Seed.
Ancient Fruit Seeds can be planted in Spring, Summer, or Fall. Due to their long grow time of 28 days, it is best to
plant them on the 1st day of Spring, or use some sort of Speed-Gro Fertilizer before planting, or plant them in the
Greenhouse to prevent them from dying at the end of Fall. They can be grown and harvested year-round inside
the Greenhouse.
Ancient Fruit can be very profitable, especially if turned into Artisan Goods, such as Ancient Fruit Wine (using a Keg)
or Ancient Fruit Jelly (using a Preserves Jar).

Rare seeds can be purchased from the Traveling Merchant. She almost always has at least one for sale.
Rare Seeds can be planted in Fall. Due to their long grow time of 28 days, it is best to plant them on the 1st day of
Fall, or use some sort of Speed-Gro Fertilizer before planting, or plant them in the Greenhouse to prevent them from
dying at the end of Fall. They can be grown and harvested year-round inside the Greenhouse.
Mixed Seeds
A special seed that can be planted during any season, except Winter, to produce a random crop from that
season. Can be obtained from cutting grass with a Scythe, digging up worms with a Hoe, or by placing any
crop inside the Seed Maker (2% chance of Mixed Seeds).
Wild Seeds
Wild Seeds come in four varieties Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. They can be crafted out of foragables,
once you reach the appropriate level (Spring level 1, Summer level 4, Fall level 6, Winter level 7). When crafted
they produce 10 seed packets. When planted, they produce random variety of that seasons foragables. Takes
7 days to grow. Wild Seeds Winter are the only crop that can be grown outdoors in Winter.

cOMMUNITY CENTER
After the 5th of Spring forward, if you go to Pelican
Town between 8:00 am and 1:00 pm you will trigger a
cut scene with Mayor Lewis. Lewis will lead you to the
Community Center. He will talk to you about the history
of the Community Center and how he just cant bare
the thought of selling it to Joja Corporation who has
shown interest in it.
When he unlocks the door and you follow him inside, you
will witness you first encounter with the Junimos. Mayor
Lewis wont see the Junimo however, and will think you
are seeing rats and asks if you have time to take care of
them.
After the cut scene ends, head back in-

side. Go to the left and into the first room
on the bottom, this is the Crafts Room.
Youll find a glowing scroll covered in
strange writing on the floor that you are
unable to read. Attempt to read the
scroll and leave.
The next day you will receive a letter from

the Wizard, who would like to invite you to
his tower. He may have a solution for your
rat problem.
The Wizard Tower is located on the far

west side of Cindersap Forest. Until now,
it was locked. Once inside, the Wizard
will talk to you about the rat problem
and show you that he knows about the
Junimos and summons one to show you.
Then, he will mysteriously vanish to
investigate the problem himself. When
he returns, he makes a potion that you
will drink. You can now read the mysterious
Junimo scrolls.
Return to the Community Center and start

completing the bundles for each room to
start earning rewards. You are rewarded
for each bundle completed and each
room completed.

the future of jojamart
JojaMart is overwhelmingly seen as the evil corporate giant that has pushed its way into peaceful
Stardew Valley. Shane works at JojaMart as the stock boy and hates his job, which is probably why
he spends his evenings in the Stardrop Saloon and is generally rude to the player. Pam can be seen
shopping in JojaMart almost daily, she likes the cheap prices (although, their prices arent always
cheaper). Sam also works at JojaMart but only part-time on Mondays and Wednesdays. You can
shop at JojaMart, they sell similar items to Pierres.
You can find a note in Pierres room from Morris, the JojaMart Customer Satisfaction Representative
sarcastically appologizing for moving in on Pierres business and offering him a job at JojaMart for next
to nothing. You can decide the future of JojaMart, if you choose to find all the items for the bundles in
the Community Center and repair it to its original condition, JojaMart will close. Or, you can buy a Joja
Mart membership and their foothold into Stardew Valley will strengthen.
JojaMart Closes
If you choose to complete all the bundles in the Community
Center by turning in items, you will be working towards building
the community for Mayor Lewis.
Once you finish all the bundles in the Community Center,

the Junimos will disappear and the Community Center will
be restored to its original condtion. Some villagers will start
to frequent the Community Center again, Evelyn can often
be found in the Crafts Room and Mayor Lewis sometimes
will visit the Vault, which appears to be his new office.
Pierres Shop will now be open 7 days per week and Joja
Mart will close. Congratulations, you have squashed the
corporate bug who infested Stardew Valley!
JojaMart Expands
Morris will reach out to you and offer to let you buy a Joja
Mart membership for 5,000 gold. Mayor Lewis has said
that if one more person in Stardew Valley buys a JojaMart
membership he will have to sell the Community Center.
If you buy the JojaMart membership from Morris (you

can do so at any time from inside JojaMart), JojaMart
will expand its business and the Community Center will
turn into the JojaMart Warehouse.
The player can still complete the bundles in the Warehouse

to get the rewards, however, all bundles now come at a
cash price of 15k - 45k instead of in exchange for items. It
should be noted, this play-style relies heavily on cash crops
and is much more difficult to progress.

magic ink returned to him and in order to do that he requests you find the
Dark Talisman. The Dark Talisman will break the seal and allow you access
to the Witch Hut, a place the Wizard dare not go for he fears running into
his ex.
To Begin the Two Part Quest Line

To initiate the cut scene to begin the Wizards quest line for his Magic Ink, the
player will need to have already completed the Community Center, by finishing all
the Bundles in all the rooms OR completing the Joja Warehouse via Joja Mart
Community Development Form (accessed in Joja Mart from Morris at the
Customer Service desk.
Once you have met the pre-requisites, go to the railroad in the mountains
during the day to trigger a cut scene with the Wizard. The cut scene will result
in a new journal entry for the Dark Talisman quest.
Dark Talisman - Part One

The journal entry indicates Krobus may know more about the Dark Talisman, go
to the Sewers (accessible from the southeast of Cindersap Forest or south of Pelican
Town). To enter the Sewers, you must have the Rusty Key in your wallet. To find out
how to get the Rusty Key watch my YouTube video Where to get the Rusty Key
and Access the Sewers.
Mutant Bug Lair

After entering the Sewers, speak with Krobus. He will magically reveal the
entrance to the Mutant Bug Lair in the Sewers. Before proceeding into the Mutant
Bug Lair, make sure to bring a weapon. Bugs will spawn infinitely inside and I
highly recommend bringing a quality weapon to kill them and a pickaxe to
remove rocks in your path (bombs would also do the trick!).
Once equipped with a weapon, proceed through the entrance to the Mutant
Bug Lair until you open the treasure chest at the end that contains the Dark
Talisman. The Lair isnt particularly large, so players should not have trouble
finding the chest, which is located at the north end. Next, return to the Railroad.
fantastical tip
Catch the Slimejack
If you dare linger and can avoid the bugs in the Mutant Bug Lair, there is a fish you can
only catch there called the Slimejack. You can catch him any time, any season.
Slimejack sell for between 100g 150g (base price) and up to 225g for a Gold Slimejack
with the Angler Profession (+50% sell price).
You can also catch Carp in the Mutant Bug Lair but it is a dangerous place to fish.

Break the Magic Seal to the Witch Hut
Once you have obtained the Dark Talisman, it will be placed in your Wallet.
Return to the railroad and interact with the magically sealed entrance. Head
inside and step over the seal to teleport to the Witches Swamp.
Goblin Problems - Part Two

Once you have teleported to the Witches Swamp, a large henchman will be
blocking your path. When you talk to him, he insists he cannot let any one
through or he will lose his job. However, he can be persuaded to move.
A lost book at the library indicates goblins love Void Mayonnaise. To obtain a
Void Mayonnaise, you can place a Void Egg into a Mayonnaise Machine or
purchase a Void Mayonnaise from the traveling merchant (rare item). If you
dont yet have a Void Egg, the easiest way to obtain one is to buy one from
Krobus in the Sewers. Bring the henchman a Void Mayonnaise and he will happily
move out of your path.
Enter the Witch Hut

Continue on to the Witch Hut. Once inside, recover the Wizards Magic Ink, the
purple bottle on the left side table. Return to the Wizard to continue the questline.
You can use the rune on the floor to teleport to the Wizard Tower, you will arrive
in his basement.
The Witch Hut

The interior of the Witch Hut not only contains the Wizards Magic Ink but
also three shrines and a teleporation rune you can use at any time.
Dark Shrine of Memory

Erases a divorced spouses memory, making them
forget you were ever married.
Cost: 30,000g
Dark Shrine of Selfishness

Turns your kids into doves permanently. You will no
longer have children should you do this.
Cost: Prismatic Shard
Dark Shrine of Night Terrors

Toggles any farm type to have monster spawn at
night. Can be toggled on/off.
Cost: Strange Bun
fantastical tip
Catch the Void Salmon
You can catch the Void Salmon fish, any season and any time from the Witches Swamp.
Void Salmon sell for between 150g 225g (base price) and up to 337g for a Gold Void
Salmon with the Angler Profession (+50% sell price).
You can also catch other items from the Witches Swamp including Seaweed and random
junk items.

Return the Wizards Magic Ink
Go to the Wizard Tower in Cindersap Forest, open be-
tween 6 AM - 11 PM daily or by teleporting from the Witch
Hut. Speak with the Wizard and he will thank you! He will
also reward you with access to his Book of Summoning,
completing the two part quest line.
magic farm buildings

To summon, or construct, buildings for your farm, interact with the Book of Summoning in the Wizard Tower. These
buildings are conjured by the Wizards magic and require no build time. Each building is very expensive and are meant
for mid-to-late game players as their unique building perks aid busy players with bustling farming operations.
The construction menu is very similar to Robins Carpenter Shop, you can also move magic buildings or Robins buildings
from the Book of Summoning.

Here is the catch, you can ONLY get it by shaking the

1,000,000 Gold, 10 Iridium Bars, & The Junimo Plush can be placed inside your house or

gold clock
10,000,000 Gold
The Gold Clock prevents debris from
appearing on your farm and keeps
fences from decaying. Fun Fact: It is
currently the most expensive item in
the game.

junimo harvesting & grids
Junimos harvest a 17x17 grid around their hut. Their reach
is 7 spaces left, right, above and 8 spaces below. Three
Junimos live in each hut, they will come out to harvest
crops and place a bag outside the hut with your crops
and go back inside when they finish. The bag holds the
same amount of content as a chest, be sure to check it
occasionally to ensure there is room for the Junimos to
harvest and store more. You do not have to be at the farm
for the Junimos to harvest. However, if you end the day
by sleeping before they finish harvesting, they do not
automatically finish and will continue harvesting the next
day. You can plant trellis crops in a grid for the junimos to
harvest (despite you not being able to reach the center
ones, they will because magic!)
Junimo Hut Grid Crop Layout Ideas

I have two Junimo Hut 17 x 17 grids, I designed and used on my own farm successfully and are an efficient use of space.
One is for large areas and the other can be used in more compact spaces. Each grid design allows for scarecrows,
sprinklers and walk paths. Note: Each grid layout should have a pathway placed under the sprinkler to keep it in place
with tilling soil and under fence posts (this is accounted for in the required items list).
Full Size: 17 x 17 Compact Size: 11 x 17

Allows for 168 planted crops. Allows for 88 planted crops.
Requires 5 Iridium Sprinklers, 6 Quality Sprinklers, Requires 11 Quality Sprinklers, 5 Scarecrows, 84
6 Scarecrows, 100 Pathway, 30 Fence & 1 Junimo Pathway, 41 Fence & 1 Junimo Hut (optional 2
Hut (optional 4 Fence Gates). Fence Gates).
Key:
Refer to the color key below to know where to place the items for the corresponding layout.
= Iridium Sprinkler = Scarecrow

= Quality Sprinkler = Fence
= Junimo Hut = Pathway

friendship
Stardew Valley has many unique villagers that you will meet and interact
with regularly. It is important to build your friendship rating with the villagers,
as it will allow you to start receiving gifts from them, they will also share their
favorite cooking recipes, and offer additional story dialog.
Achieve super best friend status of 10 hearts with a single villager (of any sex)
and you could even get married and have children.
Its all about the Hearts - Make Friends

Building your friendship with villagers is based on your heart
rating, you can achieve up to 10 hearts with a villager and
13 hearts with a spouse. Each heart represents 250 points.
If you go into your social (heart) menu, you will see all of
the villagers and your current heart rating. To the right of the
hearts shows the gift status with that villager for the week.
You can give each villager two gifts per week and only one
a day. Once you give a gift, a green checkbox will appear
to the right of the giftbox.
Give Gifts
Be sure to give gifts early and often. I like to carry around a
stack of blueberries and give them to anyone I see. Mostly
because they are generally liked by most villagers and they
are plentiful. Be mindful of villagers reactions to gifts though,
each villager has unique likes and dislikes. And it is best
to give them something they love (worth 80 points) or like
(worth 45 points). If they really love something, a little heart
will appear above their head when they receive the gift
and they will tell you how much they like it. This is fantastical
good and will boost your heart rating much more quickly.
Complete Quests for Villagers

Villagers will post quests to the bounty board located in front of
Pierres Shop in the center of town. If the quest indicates that
completion will make a villager happy, you will receive 150
friendship point immediately upon completion. Be careful of
time, as many of these quests only are available for 2 days after
you accept them.
Be Conversational
Engage in conversation with villagers, sometimes they will fantastical tip
offer valuable information as to what they or their friends
like/dislike. Speaking with a villager offers 20 points, ignoring The 2 Heart Minimum
a villager for 2 days takes away 2 points. Most villagers will not let you into their bedrooms unless
you have a minimum of 2 hearts with them. Try to get to
Occassionally, after reaching certain heart ratings with villagers at least 2 hearts with all villagers so you can access their

when answering their questions. Note, once you max out hearts talking to you Sebby!
with a Villager, it will not decay (as of update 1.07).

Remember Birthdays
Every villager in Stardew Valley has a birthday. You can
check the calendar on the front of Pierres shop to see
whose birthday might be coming up or you can purchase
a calendar from Robins Carpenter Shop and put one in
your house (which I recommend doing).
You want to give villagers a birthday gift on their birthday,

it goes a long way in boosting your heart rating. If you give
them something they love on their birthday, you will receive
640 points (that is 8x the value of a loved gift on a normal
day) which could gain you as many as two full hearts with
one gift. Liked birthday gifts will give you 360 points.
Birthday gifts do not count towards the weekly gift giving limit.
universal loves universal hates

These are two items that are universally loved by villagers Bait, Sap, Bug Meat, Trash items, Rotten items, and Rusty
(worth 80 points) with two exceptions. Penny hates Rabbits items are universally hated by villagers with no exceptions.
Foot and Haley hates Prismatic Shards. Be careful with these, they can reduce your heart rating.
Rabbits Foot Bait

Gathered from Rabbits in the Deluxe Coop or Crafted from bug meat, or gathered from the
bought from the Traveling Merchant Worm Bin, or bought from Willy
Prismatic Shard Bug Meat

Found in Iridium Ore deposits and Omni-Geodes. Dropped by Bugs, Cave Flys, and Maggots in
the Mines
universal likes universal dislikes

These are many items that are universally liked by villagers Generally, all villagers dislike fish, crafting & building items,
(worth 45 points) with a few exceptions. Personally, I have minerals (not to be confused with gems), fertilizer, tackle,
found blueberries, blackberries, and coffee are generally furniture, monster loot (the Wizard is an exception, he loves
well received with a couple exceptions. Jas and Vincent solar essence and void essence), and seeds. Personally, I
hate coffee and dislike blueberries and blackberries (along have found salmonberries are not generally well received
with Sebastian and Abigail who arent berry lovers). with a few exceptions, Jodi, Linus, Shane, Pam, Leah,
Demetrius, and Robin seem to like them.
Blueberry
Crop grown in Summer, takes day 13 days and Salmonberry

he actually may be hiding some internal feelings related to his family. He can often be seen hanging
around Haley. He lives with his grandparents, Evelyn and George, just to the East of Pierres Shop,
and has a dog who is kept outside in the dog house.

After you finish the 8 Heart cutscene with Shane, you will
have the ability to acquire Blue Chickens for your farm. To
get a Blue Chicken, simply purchase a new chicken from

so getting one can be tough. You may have to buy and sell
a lot of chickens before you get one. Lucky days seem to
increase your chances!

fantastical tip
Your Spouse has their own Style
Once you marry, your spouse will move into your house with
you. Next to each bachelor or bachelorette, you can see
their marriage room, which is the room that will be
added on to your house. Choose your spouse wisely if decor is
important to you. You cannot change your spouses rooms
flooring or wallpaper but you can add your own objects.
They also utilize the stone space above your mailbox.
Avoid the unpleasant surprise of clash of decor when they

move in with you - like I did with Alex and his neon green
carpet. I tried to cover it up, I added the blue rug, table in
the bottom right, the boat, the lamp, the plants and the
chests. Now for that wallpaper...

non-marriage villagers
These are the non-marriage and giftable villagers of Stardew Valley. As you become better friends with the villagers, they will
allow you access to their rooms (after 2 hearts), send you favorite cooking recipes in the mail along with the occasional gift,
and some also have their own cut-scenes to further their back story. You can get each non-single villager up to 10 hearts.
Non-marriage villagers are ordered by birthday.

the path inside the mines, directly to your right, using a
Steel Axe or a Cherry Bomb. You can only communicate
with the Dwarf once you find all 4 Dwarf Scrolls (one of
each color) and donate them to Gunther at the Museum.

grandpa
The player received their farm in Stardew Valley thanks to their Grandpa,
who they receive a note from in the beginning of the game. That is not the
last you will see of Grandpa though.
Grandpas Shrine is located in the northwest corner of your farm, when it is

interacted with, it says Grandpas Shrine. You will find a note on the shrine
that says Grandpa will return at the start of Year 3 to evaluate your success.
grandpa's evaluation
The evaulation Grandpa gives you is directly related to the number of candles lit around Grandpas Shrine at the beginning
of Year 3 (Spring, Day 1). The number of candles lit is based on a point system, and points are earned during the first two
years by reaching specific milestones. Milestones are worth points and there are a total of 21 points possible.
If you do not get all four candles lit right away, dont be discouraged. You can have Grandpa re-evaluate you at any time by
placing a Diamond in his Shrine. Grandpa will then appear the following day, when the game loads, or in some cases, the first
day of the next season.

how to get married
The player can marry any of the Bachelors or Bachelorettes regardless of their characters gender.
In order to marry, you need to meet a few requirements and complete a few tasks.
Spouses will offer assistance on the farm, such as repairing fences, feeding animals, watering crops,
or filling your pets water bowl. They may also make you breakfast, providing you with an Omelet,
Hashbrowns, Pancakes, etc. If they are happy enough, you may also be able to start a family by
having kids - or by adoption if in a same-sex marriage. Watch my video How to get Married.
step one, declare your love with flowers

Once you have achieved 8 hearts with a bachelor or bachelorette (single villager), Pierre will send you a letter in the
mail. The letter indicates that Pierre is now selling special Bouquets at his shop. To declare you intention to marry, gift the
bouquet to the single villager of your choice.
It is impossible to get a single villager past 8 hearts unless you give them the bouquet. It is possible to gift all the single
villagers bouquets in order to get them all to 10 hearts before proceeding to the next step of marriage, which would
allow you to see all possible 10 heart cut scenes. Once you are married, gifting a bouquet to a villager besides your
spouse, will have negative effects on your heart rating with your spouse.
step two, get engaged

Once you have given a Bouquet to your special someone, you will
need to purchase a Mermaids Pendant. You can buy a Mermaids
Pendant from the Old Mariner on the northeast end of the Beach,
above the tide pools across the small wooden bridge. The Old Mariner
will only appear on rainy days during Spring, Summer, and Fall. He will
not appear in Winter. You can buy the pendant from him for 5,000
gold once you have 10 hearts with a single villager and have upgraded
your house at least once.
Once you have acquired the Mermaid Pendant, gift it to your

special someone.

step three, get married
After you get engaged, your wedding will take place 3 days later, first thing in the morning after you wake.
After the wedding ceremony, the player and their Spouse will appear on their front porch at 6:00 AM. If you go inside
your house, you will see their marriage room has been added on to your house and is themed based on their likes.
There is also a new outdoor space, above your mailbox for your spouse based on their hobbies.
how to get divorced

Should you decide your spouse is no longer the mate for you, players
can visit the Mayors Manor in Pelican Town. Inside, there is a small
book that will give them the option to divorce their spouse.
Divorce costs 50,000 gold. After filing for divorce, players have the
option to change their mind before the end of the day, up until 10
PM when Lewis house closes. If they proceed, their spouse will be
gone the next day and their friendship level will revert to 0 hearts.
Under their name it will now state (ex).
After the divorce, the spouse will move back to their old home,
and will have negative interactions with the player due to their
failed marriage. Players can reverse this negativity from their ex by
using one of the Shrines in the Witch Hut to erase their ex-spouses
memory, as if the marriage and divorce never happened. Should
one choose, they could even date and re-marry their ex.
Any children from the marriage will stay at the farmhouse unless
you opt to turn them into doves using the Witch Hut shrine. This will
remove the children permanently.

marriage & kids
Once your Spouse has moved into your house, you will now be able to get them to 12 hearts instead
of 10. Keeping them happy and increasing your friendship rating will result in them helping out around
the farm and cooking meals. If your spouse becomes unhappy at any time, they may stop helping
out and complain. You need to continue giving your spouse gifts, even after marriage, if you want to
keep them happy. Interacting with your spouse when no more dialog is available, will result in a loving
embrace - a little heart will appear over your heads.

in a loss of up to 2 hearts with your spouse.
You can increase your heart rating with your spouse through
gifts, as usual. However, you are no longer restricted to two
gifts per week with your spouse, but you can only gift them
once per day.
spouse chores
If your spouse is kept happy, they will help out around the
farm by doing chores. They may repair all of the broken
fences, water crops during Spring, Summer, and Fall, feed
the animals, and fill your pets water bowl. The may also Your chance of your spouse asking if you want to have

bundle the night before the baby is due, can cause the
baby to not arrive.
For the first 14 days after your child is born, they will remain
sleeping in the crib. After this, they will stand in the crib
and you can interact with them for the next 14 days. Next,
your baby will crawl around the house and play with toys
during the day for 14 days. Finally, the baby will become a
toddler (the current, final stage of kids) and begin sleeping
in one of the beds in the nursery. This will free up the crib
for a second child which can now be born. You can only
have two kids. You can get 10 hearts with your children.

seasonal festivals
There are two festivals each season and Mayor Lewis will send you a letter to remind you of the
upcoming event. His letters will detail what time they start, end, and where to go to attend. He will
also tell you if you need to bring anything for the festival.
On the day of the festival, a pop-up will appear in your bottom left corner of your screen, saying the
festival has begun. You will need to remember when the festival ends, so you can be sure to arrive
before then if you want to attend. When you are at a festival, time does not appear to be a factor.
You can stay as long as youd like so feel free to explore, but you typically return home to your farm
well into the evening, usually around 10:00 PM, no matter the time the festival was scheduled to end.
Festivals are a great chance to talk to ALL the villagers, as they always attend. This can help boost your
friendship rating simply by chatting with everyone while you are at the festival. Some festivals have
events you can participate in, others may require you bring something, and some have shops you can
buy special items from, including Rarecrows, so be sure to bring some gold!
It should also be noted that on festival days, you are not able to enter the area the festival will be held
until it starts. Some villagers will also differ from their regular schedules on these days, for instance, Robin
the Carpenter will not work on your farm buildings on festival days. Plan accordingly!

Feast of the Winter Star

Winter, Day 25 | Pelican Town
The Feast of the Winter Star is an event similar to a Secret Santa gift exchange. You are
assigned a person to give a gift to, Mayor Lewis will send a letter to your mailbox telling you
who your assigned person is on Day 18, so youll have plenty of time to prepare a gift for
them. Likewise, someone will be assigned you. Be sure to bring your gift to the event, locate
the person you were assigned to and give them their gift. After you give your gift, a cut-
scene will start and the villager who was assigned you, will arrive with a package. You will
open your gift and receive an item, or multiples of that item. The gift you receive it based
on that Villagers loves, for instance, Marnie will give you a dozen Eggs while Vincent will give
you Pink Cake.
If you talk to Willy while at the event, he will tell you a story of a mysterious Stardrop. Require-
ments for this Stardrop, or if it even exists, are still unknown. You can also talk to Gus and he
will tell you a long winded story about how he hand crafts candy canes. You can talk to all
the Villagers at the festival, but Willy and Gus are the stand-outs.
There is no shop set-up during the Feast of the Winter Star.

Tool upgrades
The player begins with a set of basic tools. A Pickaxe, Axe, Hoe, Scythe, and
Watering Can. All but the Scythe can be upgraded by Clint, the Blacksmith,
for a fee and metal bars.
Upgrading tools takes 2 days, so plan accordingly. For instance, if it is

supposed to rain tomorrow, water all your crops today and then go
upgrade your watering can. It will be ready the day after it rains, when
you will need it again. While upgrading a tool you cannot shop with
Clint or ask him to break open Geodes.

allow you access to higher tier animals, a larger interior space to house more
animals, and an auto-feeding system.
silo
Building Cost: 100 Gold, 100 Stone, 10 Clay, 5 Copper Bars
Before you build any of the animal farm buildings, I recommend build-
ing a Silo. Once built, a silo will allow you to cut grass with a Scythe for
Hay, which is automatically stored in the Silo. You can pull Hay from the
Silo or from inside the Coop or Barn at the Feeder, to feed your animals.
Each Silo holds up to 240 pieces of Hay. You can also buy Hay from
Marnie if you need to. If you click on your Silo, you can see how much
Hay you have in stock. Be sure to stock up before Winter!
The Silo takes up a 3x3 space and is rather tall.
Well
Building Cost: 1,000 Gold, 75 Stone
Wells can be built to provide an alternate water source to fill your
watering can. They also look pretty as farm decorations whether you
need water or not.
Wells take up a 3x3 space.
stable
Building Cost: 10,000 Gold, 100 Hardwood, 5 Iron Bars
The Stable is a place to house your Horse. And the Stable comes with
a Horse, of course! It is best to build your stable somewhere close to a
exit on the farm for easy access. Either the North end, Northeast end,
or South end. As long as you dont demolish your Stable, your horse will
always return home the next morning if you leave him somewhere.
The Stable takes up a 4x2 space.

mill
Building Cost: 2,500 gold, 50 Stone, 150 Wood & 4 Cloth
Allows you to create flour from wheat and sugar from beets which can
be used in your kitchen for cooking recipes. The output from the Mill
also acts as a chest, where items can be stored and the Flour and Sug-
ar will be placed when it finishes processing.
Mills take up a 4x2 space.
shed
Building Cost: 15,000 gold & 300 Wood.
An empty building with an interior that can be decorated. Fill it with
anything youd like. Sheds are a very efficient use of space as they
only take up 21 squares on your farm but the interior is larger than 21
squares.
Sheds take up a 7x3 space.
fantastical tip
Decorating Ideas for the Inside of your Shed
The inside of your shed can be used for almost anything youd like. Personally, I like to group Artisan Goods and other
crafting stations into a themed Shed. This way, all the materials you need (i.e. Ore) and the crafting station(s) you need
(i.e. Furnace) are in one place, saving you precious time and valuable farm land.
Brewing Shed Blacksmithing Shed Preserves Shed

coop
Coops can house Chickens, Ducks, and Rabbits - and even Baby Dinosaurs. In order to purchase animals from Marnie for
your Coops, you must have a Coop already built and room enough in your Coop for another animal. You can go inside and
also open and close the latch on the front to let animals out or to keep them in. The Coop takes up a 3x6 space, with the
door on the front left side.
Building Cost:
4,000 Gold, 300 Wood, 100 Stone
The Coop houses up to 4 chickens.
big coop
Building Cost:
The Big Coop unlocks Ducks and can
house up to 8 animals. It also features
an Incubator which when an egg is
placed inside, will hatch an animal
of the same type as the egg in a few
days time.
deluxe coop
Building Cost:
The Deluxe Coop unlocks Rabbits and
can house up to 12 animals. It also
comes with an auto-feed system that
will pull hay from your Silos.
fantastical tip
The Wicked Witch
Also known as, the Wizards Ex-Wife. This is a random event in
which a Wicked Witch will fly over your Coop in the middle
of the night, casting some sort of spell on your Coop. The
next morning, if you go inside, you will find a Void Egg.
If you place the Void Egg into an Incubator (requires Big

Coop), it will hatch a Void Chicken in a few days that will
lay more Void Eggs.
The event happens randomly as long as the player has a

Coop built. Although, the chances are higher if you talk
to the Wizard the day before and he mentions his Ex-Wife.

barn
Barns can house Cows, Goats, Sheep, and Pigs. In order to purchase animals from Marnie for your Barns, you must have a
Barn already built and room enough in your Barn for another animal. You can go inside and also open and close the door
on the front to let animals out or to keep them in. The Barn takes up a 4x7 space, with the door on the front left side.
Building Cost:
The Barn houses 4 Cows.
big barn
Building Cost:
The Big Barn unlocks Goats and can
house up to 8 barn-dwelling animals.
It also allows animals to give birth.
Select this setting from inside the
Animal menu when interacting with
them.
deluxe barn
Building Cost:
The Deluxe Barn unlocks Sheep
and Pigs, and can house up to 12
barn-dwelling animals. Comes with an
auto-feed system.
fantastical tip
Get Free Stuff from the Train
The train can randomly pass through Stardew Valley. When
it does, a message pops up on your screen letting you know
A train is passing through town. The train can drop items
off its cars while it goes by, so head up to the Mountains
and go to the Railroad Station to snag a few free items. The
train often drops Coal, Stone and Geodes.
Christmas Train
When the Train passes through town in the Winter, go up for
a special Christmas Train, packed with gift boxes in every
car. Chances of good items dropping increase in Winter.

slime hutch
Building Cost: 10,000 Gold, 500 Stone, 10 Refined Quartz, 1 Iridium Bar
The Slime Hutch allows you to raise up to 20 slimes. To raise Slimes you
will need Slime Eggs, which can be crafted or dropped by Slimes in the
mines after the Slime Hutch has been built. The Slime Hutch comes with
one Slime Incubator for Slime Eggs.
Fill the water troughs inside the Slime Hutch and Slimes will leave slime
balls. If you manage to get a male (ball on his head) and female (no
ball), they will breed making more slimes and it is the only time they
will leave slime balls, when both genders are present and can appear
daily. Different color slimes have different drops, for instance, purple
slimes will occasionally drop Iridium Ore or Bars when killed.
Enter Without Taking Damage

It is best to equip the Slime Charmer ring before entering, this will
prevent you from taking damage from the slimes inside while you
work. It is dangerous inside and the slimes can kill you. The Slime Hutch
takes up an 11x7 space, with the door to enter on the front center.
Preventing the Witch Curse

To prevent the Witch from cursing your Slime Hutch, turning all your
slimes black, place the Wicked Statue inside the Slime Hutch. You
can craft the Wicked Statue Recipe with 25 Stone and 5 Coal. The
crafting recipe can be purchased from Krobus for 1,000 Gold.
Have a Slime Farm Outside

You can also keep slimes on your farm outside, without the need
of a Slime Hutch. While this method doesnt produce slime balls,
you can breed slimes to kill for their item drops.
First, you need a Slime Egg Press (unlocked after Combat level 6)
and place 100 slime balls inside to make a Slime Egg. In one day,
the Slime Egg will output a Slime Egg (ir order of quality), Green and can cost more to get started than if the

on your farm, you dont have to have it on
While keeping a Slime farm outside does not produce as much your farm.

farm animals
You can house many different farm animals assuming you have built the prop-
er buildings for them. You can have Chickens, Ducks, Rabbits, Cows, Goats,
Sheep, and Pigs - oh, and did I mention Baby Dinosaurs?
Having animals can be a great way to make money by crafting Animal

Products and also gives you much needed cooking ingredients. Some items
dropped by Animals are also required for the Community Center bundles.
Animals do require your love and attention, along with a steady food supply.
Adult animals can drop most items almost daily, if happy enough.

fantastical tip
Ladys Exercise Day
Every Tuesday, some of the women of Stardew Valley get
together at Pierres Shop during the day to exercise as a
group.
If you are having a hard time finding Robin, Marnie, Jodi,

Emily, or Caroline on Tuesday, they are likely here.
Be sure to plan ahead on these days, if you want to

upgrade or build a farm building, Robin wont likely be
around till very late in the afternoon and Marnie can
sometimes stay out and goes directly to the Stardrop
Saloon in the evenings leaving her shop unattended.

coop animals
Chickens
Adult Chickens will lay an egg every morning inside the Coop if fed. Happier
chickens may produce quality items, such as Large Eggs. The color of your
chicken is random. Brown chickens produce brown eggs, while white and blue
chickens produce white eggs. If you want a different color chicken, you can
sell the chicken and buy another. Chickens at a full 5 hearts sell for 1,040 gold
each. Eggs can be sold for between 40 - 75 gold each, although I recommend
making them into Mayonnaise which sells for 100 - 225 gold.
You can interact with your chickens once a day to increase their heart rating.
Ducks
Adult Ducks will lay an egg every other day inside the Big or Deluxe Coop if fed.
Happier ducks have a higher chance of producing Large Duck Eggs. Ducks at
a full 5 hearts sell for 5,200 gold each. Eggs can be sold for 75 gold each,
although I recommend making them into Duck Mayonnaise while sells for 300
gold. Ducks may also drop Duck Feathers if they have a high enough heart rating.
You can interact with your ducks once a day to increase their heart rating.
Rabbits
Adult Rabbits will leave Wool daily inside the Deluxe Coop if fed, with no need
to shear them. Rabbits at a full 5 hearts sell for 10,400 gold each. Wool can be
sold for 270 gold each, although I recommend making it into Cloth on a Loom,
as Cloth sells for 375 gold. Rabbits may also drop Rabbits Foot if they have a high
enough heart rating, but typically only drop 1 every 1 - 2 seasons.
You can interact with your rabbits once a day to increase their heart rating.
Dinosaurs
To obtain a Dinosaur, you must find a Dinosaur Egg and place it into an Incubator
(requires Big Coop). Dinosaur Eggs can be found by digging up worms with a
Hoe, killing monsters, or breaking open Geodes. Adult Dinosaurs will lay an egg
every 1 - 5 days and make no sound. Dinosaur Eggs can be sold for 350 gold
each and one can be donated to Gunther at the Museum. Dinosaurs at a full
5 heart rating sell for 1,278 gold each.
You can interact with your dinosaurs once a day to increase their heart rating.
fantastical tip
Need more Earth Crystals?
If you want to keep up with your Chickens and Ducks making
Mayonnaise, you will need a lot of Mayonnaise Machines
which are unlocked at Farming Level 2.
The Mayonnaise Machine takes 15 Wood, 15 Stone, 1 Earth

Crystal, and 1 Copper Bar. To get a ton of Earth Crystals to
craft your Mayonnaise Machines, use your Crystallarium to
get more quickly.

barn animals
To gather Animal Products from barn animals, you will need tools to collect them, except for Pigs which leave Truffles around
the farm, near the barn. You will need a Pail to milk Cows and Goats, and you will need Shears to trim Wool from your Sheep.
Both these items can be purchased from Marnie.
Barn animals can also become pregnant, if allowed. If the option in enabled in their menu (when interacting with the
animal), a random pregnancy can occur. If an animal becomes pregnant, a message will pop-up at night telling you
they gave birth. The game will then prompt you to choose a name for the baby animal. While you need room in your
Barn for the new animal, you do NOT need two of one type of animal (i.e. two cows) to have a baby animal. Pregnancy
requires the Big Barn.
Cows
Adult Cows can be milked every day if fed. Happier cows may produce quality
items, such as Large Milk. The color of your cow is random and does not effect
their milk. If you want a different color, you can sell the cow and buy another.
Cows at a full 5 hearts sell for 1,950 gold each. Milk can be sold for between
100 - 150 gold each, although I recommend making them into Cheese which
sells for 160 - 240 gold.
You can interact with your cows once a day to increase their heart rating.
Goats
Adult Goats can be milked every other day if fed. Happier goats may produce
quality items, such as Large Goat Milk. Goats become sad if you leave the barn
door open at night. Goats at a full 5 hearts sell for 5,200 gold each. Goat Milk
can be sold for between 180 - 275 gold each, although I recommend making
them into Goat Cheese which sells for 300 - 450 gold.
You can interact with your goats once a day to increase their heart rating.
Sheep
Adult Sheep can be sheered every other day if fed using Shears. Happier sheep
can be sheared more often. Sheep at a full 5 hearts sell for 10,400 gold each.
Wool can be sold for 270 gold each, although I recommend making it into Cloth
on a Loom, as Cloth sells for 375 gold.
You can interact with your sheep once a day to increase their heart rating.
Pigs
Adult Pigs will automatically find Truffles if allowed outside. During Winter, Pigs
will not find Truffles, as they will not go outside. Winter is a great time to buy Pigs
so they are adults come Spring. Pigs at a full 5 hearts sell for 20,528 gold each.
Truffles can be sold for 500 - 750 gold each, although I recommend making
them into Truffle Oil using the Oil Maker, as Truffle Oil sells for 850 gold. The Oil
Maker is available at Farming Level 8.
You can interact with your pigs once a day to increase their heart rating.

the farm cave
You may have noticed there is a tiny entrance in the north end of your farm
that leads to a small cave. But RedLace, there is nothing in there. Not yet but
there will be!
When you reach 25,000 gold total earnings, Demetrius will come by your
farm in the morning. He will tell you he has been doing some research and
noticed your small cave on your farm. Hell then ask if he can continue his
research in your cave, and you can keep the items left inside. You have
two choices, the Mushroom Cave or Fruit Bats. The choice is permanent so
choice wisely based on your play style.

stardrops
Why does it taste like cake? Not sure. What I do know is that Stardrops per-
manently increase your maximum energy by 34 points when consumed. They
are very rare and hard to come by but youll want to keep on the look out for
these special treats!
There are currently only 7 stardrops that can be obtained.

There are a total of five fish in the game classified as Legendary, as they are

the exception of The Legend.
It is recommended you use an upgraded fishing pole, bait, and tackle

(I prefer the Trap Bobber) when catching Legendary Fish. You may also
want to eat a Dish O the Sea to increase your fishing skill and fish on good
luck days (check the TV Fortune Teller).
