This guide covers foraging in Stardew Valley, detailing locations and uses for all forageable items across all seasons. The 1.6 update introduced new uses for many foraged goods, including juicing and pickling. This guide has been updated to reflect these changes, as well as the addition of the Mushroom Log and Green Rain event.
