Stardew Valley is all about appreciating nature and living off the land, so it comes as no surprise that foraging is one of the game's central mechanics. In every season, the valley offers a different selection of mushrooms, fruits, and other items that the player can gather for use in recipes or crafting artisan goods.
Some of these items, though, can be a bit tricky to track down, especially in large quantities. The tables below provide a guide to all the game's forage items by season, and in which areas they can be found. Locations are listed by the likelihood of finding the specific item there, from the highest chance to the lowest chance of that item spawning.
Stardew Valley isn't all about farming. It also has a bit of magic to it, in the form of a Crop Fairy that can visit the player's farm.
Updated December 20, 2024, by Demaris Oxman: The 1.6 update for Stardew Valley is finally available on all platforms, after months of only being accessible on PC. Now, all farmers can explore everything this new version of the game has to offer. For players who love foraging, there are a few changes to be aware of as they head out to explore. Many forage items are now more versatile, as players can make them into Juice or Pickles with Kegs or Preserves Jars, respectively. New items like the Mushroom Log and events like the Green Rain offer new methods for players to stock up on certain items. With that in mind, this guide has been updated to keep players on top of all the knowledge they need to gather and use mushrooms, flowers, berries, and more.

판타지 장르는 수세기 동안 독자들의 상상력을 사로잡아 왔습니다. 1858년, 스코틀랜드 작가 조지 맥도널드는 환태지스: 남녀를 위한 요정 로맨스(Phantastes: A Faerie Romance for Men and Women)를 집필했는데, 이는 종종 최초의 현대 판타지 소설로 간주됩니다. 이 선구적인 작품은 후대의 사랑받는 작가들에게 깊은 영향을 미쳤습니다. 던세이니 경은 이후 J.R.R. 톨킨이 개인적으로 좋아하는 작품인 요정왕국의 딸(
