ah i see, ty
well, apparently there’s no option for it on xbox
also my glasses fell apart on my face while i was trying to figure it out

i’ll just recreate it on the planner someday
If you have an external hard disk, maybe you can download the save data from there and bring it to PC? Then you can upload it to planner. Maybe easier to just recreate it, idk 😛
@magic merlin nice farm desing, can you tel me what visual mod are this?
@thorny olive Angel's Japanese Buildings & Daisy's Earthy Recolor
i liked
you farm
what a coincidence I play with friends too, and I take care of this space on the farm four corners. and animals also
😍
Thats so prettyy
whats best way to get prismatic shard
download sve and if2r and enjoy the ||gem cave||
or go be hopeful in the skull caverns
what
mods
I believe this question is best suited for #stardew-spoilers
So, I will able to fit 370 Kegs in the Quarry, that are very much needed given the extensive backlog of production I have
You can walk all through it, though I'll be automating it
Kegs go on the weathered flooring, path is the cobblestone
Cliff covers the actual tile you can walk through at the bottom
You can fit more iirc
Do you have a layout for that?
The only I could find was from before the quarry mine, and it fit about 20 less than I could
I think this is better I may be wronf
And you could also fit 9 more into that layout
I can try, I'll end up counting with the flooring tiles
Give me a bit and I'll confirm
I will have to use a couple connecting floors tho, all these don't necessarily touch
As far as I can see, this layout could fit 3 machines more, first up and left, and the third by moving the part that goes down the bottom of the bridge one tile left
How long does it take to exit?
mmm not sure really, I'm the one who is just about to set this up
Oof goodluck
I'll be back in a bit to confirm how many machines you can stick in there
mmm I can't seem to fit more than before with this layout, I have 8 floor tiles in my hands right now
Anyone have an optimal farm layout for end game?
@quiet stirrup
This question is subjective.
Which farm map and how do you play primary?
I chose the basic farm map
What do you mean by how i play?
I plan on completing everything
There is no right or wrong way to play the game and some people min-max. Which if that's the case @broken folio is who I know to be efficient with that. If you like aesthetic there are s lot who can help. @red obsidian comes to mind as do a few others who's tag I csnt recall atm.
Do you like to fish? Do you mine a lot? Are you on a fast completion run or a long term run? Do you use mods? What skills will you be going with and what will your game focus be?
I'm probably over complicating things cause I just woke up but I did my 100% [99.9 to those of you who count the arcade games] run on my first save min-maxing but I considered and had to factor in a lot of things playing hilltop.
What’s minmaxing?
I like fishing and mining and my co-op partner likes to farm, craft, forage, and take care of animals. I plan on a long term game where i 100% the game. No mods and my game focus will be just getting everything food wise fish wise recipe wise etc
Basically maximizing profits while not using more than necessary for a run ... that's how I'd put it anyways. You're capitalizing on what you can make in the shortest amount if time possible is how I view min-maxing. Cake has mentioned something about having 7mil on year 1.
Minmaxing is bring as efficient as poddible
... pixel your way behind
It's 40 million year 1 now
...my point stands.
40 million? Damn you must use your whole farm for crops
Yes it does
Yeah 40 million in year with a combination for skull cavern and mega cropd
Yeah sure
and Cake, I had to really weird the layout around to just add 3 more keg spots than I had before...
Is it worth it using that much of my farm for crops
You can add morr
You can add morr
@broken folio is that for me?
Hold on, let me share standard designs for @quiet stirrup first
Couldnt you do even more if you extend the blue color down one
Since cant you still interact if its in the corner
I did the green things already Cake
I'm sitting at 373 now
Also considering the row you can used that is covered by the bottom cliff
You're not gonna go into the mini skull cavern again you could utilize the space inside or at the entrance for things and even go into the bridge if you feel wild enough, and push that bottom row out a tile by the bridge.
:thumbsup:
Red line is the row that is covered by the cliff
You're not gonna go into the mini skull cavern again you could utilize the space inside or at the entrance for things and even go into the bridge if you feel wild enough, and push that bottom row out a tile by the bridge.
@little sonnet I could stick 3 more with that
Also you can add more if you block the bridge
I'm actually forgetting the bridge itself is not walked on
@red obsidian could i ask you a few more specific questions
I've been up for 28 hours
393
@red obsidian could i ask you a few more specific questions
@quiet stirrup Sure!
Yes you can cake and itd be reachable.
I think so, let me double check
Making 395 kegs
And there's also this
And here's it all in one image for u HM
@red obsidian

397 in the quarry itself
Yeah 397 is quarry + bridge
Oh I found 1 more
which one?
Yes, done
I'll see if I can find anymore but I think this may be it
Aw.
I'm always lurking or can be tagged. This is just how I am. ^^
@quiet stirrup did any of HM's designs help you out or give you ideas?
I tired my best to find more spots but couldent
I hate that you can put paths over the quarry bridge but not on any of the smaller bridges
@red obsidian
That's a bad quarry
398 in quarry + bridge
I have 179 furnaces in my tunnel and road
HM when your done with the keg layout can you send it to me? I'd like to keep it as refrence
Just ideas for other places to well, place kegs was what i was hinting at.
ay its cakewalker
@little sonnet sorry for the late response but yeah
I left for a while to have dinner, hehe but I'm back. Sure @broken folio , as soon as finish smelting and crafting all the kegs I'll place them down and share
Thanks @little sonnet! I might get the tunnel later, but I first gotta get this 400 done first
Hopefully will help with backlog
It's huge, and I'm in summer, so it's only growing and growing
I fear that i'm going to have horrid backlog as well once I start producing for kegs.
Is it worth putting stuff in the town like kegs and stuff around the npc pathing
I'm actually just making jelly & juice... I would be a lot more backlogged if I was making wine
Is it worth putting stuff in the town like kegs and stuff around the npc pathing
@quiet stirrup If you find you can't get enough sheds around your farm for it, yeah
This is actually my first time filling the quarry, but I'm on a modded map this time
I've always found my standard farm layouts amount of sheds enough for my processing
This modded map is NOT the case 
Giving its a farming game, crop space is essential. I would certainly have a good amount of crop space for sure and build as you go.
When do you unlock iridium sprinklers
Farming level 9
WAIT is starfruit better than ancient fruit for kegs?
Ancient fruit is better for me because you plant once and get multiple harvests
But money wise I think they're pretty close
Yeah for outside crops it's good, for the greenhouse, I go for AF
You were saying back log? This is one of 5 Keg sheds... 
@little sonnet
Damn
You make an outstanding point
rftghyuhjuijuk
WAIT is starfruit better than ancient fruit for kegs?
@quiet stirrup Ancient Fruit > Starfruit due to no seed cost. It just takes time and duplication. And the weekly harvest is nice once kegs are grown.
EDIT: However, Starfruit outside of greenhouse can be quite profitable though the competition of regrowable blueberries is.. well, competitive.
also not 400g per seed but the extent of this is better for another channel. ^^
Yeah, planting which seed for profit is probably better in seasoned farmers
I'm at 75% of the kegs Cake, I'll get that layout ready soon
@broken folio this is 402 kegs, and I just found you could fit 1 more, but it's processing rn (bottom, replacing the light post). So, 403 with the whole bridge, or 384, no bridge
Almost 3 upgraded sheds fit in the quarry.
HECK YEAH. OPTIMAL SPACE!
That one wooden path, or two wooden paths are gonna kill me, though.
Three
Why wooden paths?
its an extension of the automate mod i think
So that the products automatically go into the chest and then refill
That makes sense. I don't use automate therefore I don't understand the totality of it's mechanics. Though with as big as my farm is going to become.. perhaps I should reconsider.
but... if they're using automate mod...
- You can set the config to use whatever paths you like
- You don't even need to use paths, since you don't need to reach the kegs yourself anyway. FILL IT ALL WITH ONLY KEGS

Shit u right
that would make the entire quarry fill and refill with items and i wouldn't have to touch anything but the chest?
Basically this from the automate mod example pics, but replace casks with kegs
(though it's not very a e s t h e t i c)
All. Those. Casks. But you have to mod to place the casks anywhere too, ye?
whispers Automate mod makes casks work anywhere
lesser known feature of the mod, because doing it all the time was a lot easier than trying to manually add compatibility with different mods that allow casks outside the cellar
So for those who want their casks to work anywhere, the feature is there
Just got into year 1 summer this is my design so far any tips would be helpful 
(yes i know scarecrow placements aren't optimal)
I use Automate, but I definitely prefer arranging things in a fashion that would make it possible to still reach them if I took it out/without the mod
Uhm sorry guys, went to sleep 
@little sonnet the weird paths are exactly what Jonqora said, connectors for automate to work. But I didn't put all wood path cause I don't like it that much. Plus I had more stone than wood, wood went to the casks themselves
I use Automate, but I definitely prefer arranging things in a fashion that would make it possible to still reach them if I took it out/without the mod
And what Blue said is exactly what I do. Make it so it would manually work without the mod
You can edit the Automate config though, and make it so that the path type you do like will work as a connector
Yeah, but the path I do like I put all over me farm. Then I would connect stuff I don't want
I'd be having to edit each chest individually
Just got into year 1 summer this is my design so far any tips would be helpful
@brisk moat Hi there! You have a nice amount of crops and already a coop, so that good. With this early game I'd recommend one thing: you possibly want to fence the area for your animals. That has, first of all, the advantage that you don't have to go treasure hunting to pet them cause they roamed all around. Also, in time when you get a barn and pigs, it also is not a truffle hunt all around. Plus, they can get in the tiles you wanna plant/put a building/put whatever machines
truffle hunt 
Also, about the crops I think your pathing around it is not definitive this early game, you still have to unlock sprinklers ahead, those will possibly determine your layout more. DO make lightning rods and place them in the farm. If, like me, you don't like how they look, you can hide them behind the buildings. They don't need to be next to crops, just be on the farm.
I second Hakunas advice certainly. And a thing to remember is all building placement is not permanent if built by Robin || or the wizard || so you can move them around later.
So if early game you wanna put everything closer for function and convenience I'd do so.
Deluxe Grabber is a great mod if you want to avoid truffle hunting 
Yes
Some of those are most definitely modded items. I love the junimo wall item with the stars. Oh my heart.
Yes, all the furniture is modded
Except the light fixtures
And the actual building is a modded cabin
Work in progress
I thought the bug lair reset over night?
No, it doesn't 😄
That's nice to know
why can't yall just leave the original game areas alone lol 🤣
Because the space on the farm is so small it's useless
That wouldn't be fun
:thumbsup:
Just block Pam in
#returnscepter
Because people choose different ones
There's 5 different farms, Standard, Forest, Riverland, Wilderness and Four Corners
And then modded farms
guys how i can do this view? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/421386982787252224/744109714446745620/unknown.png?width=399&height=399
Check the pinned messages ^^
@copper shell I don't think your old version of the game will have the feature, but you can check
ok
not exactly the farm area but pretty cool pretty cool — w/ @strange umbra
kinda 
That looks nice!
ooh pretty!
Are you sure the 2x4 flower patch on the left (the one that's lined with fruit trees) is covered by screcrows?
How do I do that view on switch
but won't you lose all the ancient fruits once winter comes
Yeah, but they'll harvest 3 seasons without needing to replant
I just feel like that's a bit wasted since you have to turn some fruits into seeds to replant them on Spring
design wise the bottom left shed looks weird but that's probably just my symmetrical soul being annoying lol
Same (on the symmetry note)
But it's a nice layout overall, I like the round space top of the pond
the upper half looks so beautiful ❤️
yeah the bottom left shed annoys me too
can’t align with the door
no matter what i do
but thank you 🥰
can’t align with the door
@storm swallow You should either make it a 3 tile path or just leave it 1 tile
However, I was more focused on the sheds either side of the pond not being similar (not sure if it was the same jarigendut meant)
looks like the door will open straight to the lake if it's aligned with the top one?
However, I was more focused on the sheds either side of the pond not being similar (not sure if it was the same jarigendut meant)
@red obsidian one was probably the bigger shed?
sometimes the render messes things up so I don't know either
I meant either side, not top and bottom row
Yes, one shed is upgraded and the other one is not
But left side as a path and all the deco, and right is sort of hiding there. I would (again symmetry thingy) move the right one a tile to the right and make the same entry with the path and deco also.
i didn’t want to cut down trees in the circle surrounding the pond
but this is all very good feedback
i will try that and post again tomorrow
I know not everyone is fond of symmetry though
I really like the layout in general and the amount of trees, it looks more natural even when you have pathing and everything
I feel it's an excellent layout for a no animal run
There already is no coop
yeah after the community center animal bundle was done i was like...do i need these anymore :/
i have 12 pigs for truffles tho
Then I'd recommend putting the barn backwards right up to the cliff, you'll give them more room to find the truffles!
More tiles to roam = More truffles will be found

Man where do all of u get the energy to design such lovely and cute farms! 
lol mood
those junimos are really having it easy, haversting less than maximum capacity
lmao
I just copied my farm from reddit 👀
in fact, it's not in the planner, it's my farm.
That's a lot of worm bins
Just started my second play through and planned out my farm - would love any feedback!
The rice shoots aren't rendering, around the small lake. Also planning to add crab pots to all the lake areas.
Nice!!!
You might want to put floors down around your trees so you don't get a bunch of pinecones etc. Trying to grow saplings around them

Also put floors under your sprinklers so you don't hoe them out of place
that looks so prettyyyy!! 😍
It looks really pretty, and I really like the fact that it looks organized without looking overly square
I can't help but wonder.. you have 6 of each fruit tree... All but 1 of them...
All but.. pomegranates?
Maybe the greenhouse will be filled with pomegranate trees?
Maybe!
this is my farm that i made a while ago
i already showcased it briefly, but it would be cool to have new ppl review it
ignore the fact that the greenhouse isn’t built, that was a mistake
it was an accident
btw, the farm is purely for aesthetic so don’t give me anything about making more money lol
Though I usually like farms that are more crop heavy, but I like the overall look of it
i can make 5m in a year with the greenhouse, i don’t need the actual farm making money
What I don't understand is the brick floor fenced part that's between the small pond and the coop
There's.. nothing on it?
I like the crystallarium section. Looks more organic than most 🙂
I really like the radiating pattern of the crystalariums
Aah I see, it's for future stuff 
yeah, i recently restarted my farm because i transferred consoles
so i had to make a new one
but at least i beat fector’s challenge on this 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Aesthetically speaking only, like you asked, I would only add a tree here and there
I feel it a bit too much wood flooring
Some trees might make it flow more
that’s fair, i just don’t like the color of the actual dirt
Yeah, I never leave the dirt visible either
yeah
but maybe pick up a tile here and there and put an oak or maple seed
As they can grow with stuff around anyways
well you have other places for that too
you have the quarry
and the bus stop
cindersap forest
all kinds of places for it
oh
yeah that’s understandable
i would have lots of cherry trees but they’re only good-looking in spring
or whatever szn they thrive in
Yeah, that's true, cherry trees only have that particular look in spring
they look awesome in spring, but trash otherwise
@gloomy pine can i ask where are you from?
@gloomy pine can i ask where are you from?
@acoustic whale country or state?
Country
I think u are from oman
Oh
Nice
i suppose lol
@red obsidian d'oh that was totally a miss on me. I was planning to have an assortment of trees in the greenhouse, but I may need to go all pomegranates in there...or rethink the arrangement of the orchard in the bottom left 
Well, I'm sure you can make it work!
I'm sure you can to
@celest path knk türk müsün
extreme case of filling up the river farm lol
in reality: 2 barns not yet built, too much animals, so laggy...
where are the animals gonna graze??
@coarse gazelle also in reality the silo island is just grass, as well as all other space on the pond island and bottom island
this is really dumb
so after that(well it is also late game), me and my friends restarted on the forest map and hillside map
i don't like the regular basic map as i think it is not challenging and too simple for planning, but the river one is surely an extreme one
how can i fit 4 more in here, im so confused
and please dont send shit with like 160 or something
i have 121
I can see you could fit 1 more
By putting the bottom row against the wall, you have one additional space otherwise you have to leave to be able to pass
Vertically?
ye
I really never tried to do the cellar, so I didn't have a layout to share
Just stared at it till an idea hit me 
Nice
Yee
Wow! Which modded map is it?
I see the scarecrows in display but non near the crops? Unless you hid them behind the huts?
Clever indeed
Ok so I’m new to this discord but I’m assuming this is where I need to ask about what the doo-heck i should put in my shed
Sure! This is kind of a slow channel though, you might get faster answers in #stardew-valley
IDK, people use them for lots of stuff
Ah ok i know what im doing in general this is like my 8th farm but I never really had any clue on what to do with the sheds
Yeah it's just livelier in new and seasoned farmers channels XD I have a lot of mods, so I put mod machines and kegs in my sheds.
Ah I need to buy it on my laptop and try the mods
join the dark side, we have cookies
There are some super helpful pins in the #archived-modded-support channel-check out the getting started page on the wiki and come see us down there if you get stuck on anything 🙂 Some even work on android, if that's what you have. But not as many people use those, so the documentation is a little sparse there.
Ok so I’m new to this discord but I’m assuming this is where I need to ask about what the doo-heck i should put in my shed
@river leaf hi and welcome! Sheds can be purely functional and just have processing machines, or you can decorate them as you want
Maybe functional, as Halla said, is more for new farmers channel
Deco is good for this one
I've managed to make a few sheds with different themes, so if that's what you're looking for I can share mine
If you don’t mind I’m trying to combine functional and theme/style
For that I have 3 sheds I can think of
I designed one for animal processing machines, a more industrial one for smelting and related stuff and a third where I process what comes from my fishing ponds. Let me try and find those.
Ok tysm
Wallpapers are from a mod, but the rest is vanilla
Ok tysm
@river leaf here's the three of them
I really need to get it on my laptop
To be able to get mods you mean?
the last one is really nice 
The ocean theme? Thanks bean 
Yea and texture packs
What are the trees from? Love these!
The big trees are from the games in the ||movie theater||
The palm trees are from thw catalogue
Oooo
I went for the same shape with laying out pathing on top of the flooring but then decorated to the actual function of the shed. The three are in the same farm
I also need to plan out my farm but not sure what to use
Ehh bit of both
For this second one, depends on what you want to do.. do you go for lots of crops? For a bit of everything?
Trying to get as much money as possible never had gold clock
Purely functional or more an aesthetic look as well?
Then you probably should go heavier on crops, they make more money than animals
I may have a layout with a lot of that
Let me see
Ok thank
Buildings are reskinned, but they are the same sheds, and stuff
You can easily replace the tea section in the middle for another layout of 8 sprinklers + hut if you prefered
Yea I’ll see I’m still in year 1 atm
Right, then planning the whole farm maybe for the next years, yeah
Well yea I like to plan ahead though I’ve almost finished the community center
Yep thanks a lot I’m gonna finish this year tonight then start getting things ready

@red obsidian I don't recognize many decoration items in that first shed (e.g. the large trees). are those from mods?
|| Movie theatre. ||
I like the use of using the crops or trees to make decorated symbols
|| Movie theatre. ||
@little sonnet I see, I rarely check there lol. thank you!
it coems fromt he game
@red obsidian I love it!
But 2 tea plants are inaccessible:
Not for the
!
You really are indeed the farm designing master
Also where do you get the inspo?
I love ig
It
I'd delete the 4 plants above the yellow circles Uzzle drew (2 on each side) for maximum symmetry but that's just me 😅
also this makes me want to build a hedge maze with tea bushes...
Aaww thanks @cedar compass
How do you change the color of roofs?
~mods
Ohhh ok
The roof color comes from a mod, indeed
Inspiration, well, I guess I've seen lots of farms around and also it just sort of happens that if I stare at a space enough, I get this ideas of what to do with the spaces
It has happened in my own home 
Not for the
!
@red obsidian Oh they collect tea too? Didn't know that
How my farm doing?
off to a good start, I say. Paths may be a bit wide for what you need however. That's up to your discretion though.
@red obsidian Oh they collect tea too? Didn't know that
@opaque rampart They collect any forageables [except truffles?? is that the case?? ] in the surrounding area.
But it's not a forage... Do they collect from trees too?
They collect crops and from the tea bushes
For them to collect forage and/or treea you need Better Junimos mod
off to a good start, I say. Paths may be a bit wide for what you need however. That's up to your discretion though.
@quasi remnant I agree with Pixel. Also, if those barns will have pigs, they'll need a bit more space to have more room to find you truffles.
your animals are quite far away from the house
are you sure you wanna go that far everyday
to pet the animals?
I guess but it fits there nice ;-;
alright
I’ll just get massive legs
it looks like your sprinkler placement is off by a few rows
bottom & right side
yeah
also i’d suggest replacing that stone fence with hardwood. it’s a lot but it will add 400+ days onto the fences life
then again you don’t need fences in that area, it’s merely decoration
besides that, that’s all i have to say. i think you’re also going to need to plant the flowers closer to the bee house in order for it to work
i’m working my way to the staff rn, but 10 million is a lot to wait for,, plus you’re going to have to replace those stone fences every season and a half 
up to u though
How long do hardwood last for?
Longer than any other fence type, I know that
Yes, hardwood is the most lasting
I would replicate the crop field both sides of the clock
Ok cool
And maybe add a couple more sheds in the opposite side of the barn and coop
I don't thin just 1 will be enough
You also need some silos to feed tbe animals
I see them now!

It's nice
What would be the one mod you’d say I NEED for it
@river leaf game changing mods? If you don't want to change too much, I would only say maybe the tractor! Or visual?
@red obsidian I’ve got a few problems anychance you could help?
I can try, you can dm me so we don't go off topic here
Yea
the farm planner is really bad omg
i cant place path on the grass areas?
i cant even test the only reason i wanted to use it
and you cant ctrl+z and its REALLY annoying
and trees are impossible to place
how the hell do you guys use that thing?
yeah i found that, but the whole ctrl+Z and the trees and its just really counter intuitive
The trees? Never had problems with trees
Ctrl + Z, yeah, takes a bit to incorporate, as well as shift to place multiple items, till you get used to it
theyre off center from where im placing them?
@torn pebble you "grab" the tree by the top left of the 3x3 footprint
and then theres a fence post
@torn pebble possibly that's what you were placing before. Click the arrow between items
i was trying to see if i could fit a coop somewhere but after i placed my paths and then tried to place the trees and fences i just gave up

i plan on putting more fish ponds under the trees, but im not sure what to put near the mill, any suggestions?
I'd recommend way more crops
And I'd also recommend keeping your trees off f your farm to make more use I'd the space on you farm
I'd also like to suggest more animals
why more animals? and i really only put the trees there because i didnt know what else to put
More crops for sure
You have very little crop space to me
Aswell you could add some fruit trees
And more animals becuase animals can make pretty good monehband can fill up space if that's what you want
And also you can make there areas look prettu
i have fruit trees in the green house. im not really struggling with money, but i suppose i can add another barn and coop. thank you
Other than that I would also suggest adding some more sheds
I'm trying to think of what else
what would you put in them though? i have what i need in my other sheds
Kegs
Make decorated rooms
Other such things
Chests
Out of everything to me I feel you need more crops
That's the most important thing your missing in my eyes
But you seem like you don't want to so I'm trying to think of other things
I mean I have 4 sheds and I'm happy with them: one for chests, kegs, animal processing, and everything else processing
im willing to put more crops, i could move the mill and make that area for crops?
alright, thank you
i plan on putting more fish ponds under the trees, but im not sure what to put near the mill, any suggestions?
@weary folio
Honestly I'd move the mill near the lake and make that whole rectangular section crops but that's just me. Maybe add a path for ease around the lake to "square it off".
Take into consideration junimo hut placement if you plan to use them and scarecrows.
I'd eventually move your tap sight off farm and put your barn there and fence off that section. Perhaps move your fish ponds to the left wall there and open that up and pick up a second barn too.
You have lots of room to play and potential too. It just depends how you play and what you like to do.
I'd also consider adding at least 1 more silo unless you're using chest method [storing a lot of hay in a chest by the bin and refilling as needed for autofeeding.]
Its...
Best crop to plant is kale or patatoes until you get strawberries on the 13th
probably a better question for #stardew-valley
@brisk wraith Potatoes are the best seed to start with in Year 1 Spring. Then, save all your money for strawberries and grow them as quickly as possible. When in doubt, just use the wiki. :)
Lol I vouch for the potatoes here
Potatoes give like 50g in profit, Kale gives 40g. Strawberries is god though
@magic merlin Wrong. You forgot to factor in the amount of days it takes for each specifc seed to grow. And potential income you make per day with them. I only said potatoes because of the chance of getting more than one.
Only way to make 40 million year one
can this convo move to #stardew-valley
imagine minmaxing lol
I minmax
yeah we all know
Nothing wrong with minmaxing. ^^ Just staying ahead of the curve.
⚠️
a few mods but nothing serious, any critiques?
Hut and tractor next to house, hives in two rows where tractor is?
Other than that, it’s nice
hmm in my opinion you can try to use the land more effectively and bring the best out of the features you have. a few stuff I can think of right now:
- honey sells for more when they are near flowers, so usually people go with a certain format to make that happen effectively
- the junimo huts will be more effective if they cover all your crops
- scarecrows right next to the sprinklers is quite unusual. I mean the space can be used for crops while you put the scarecrows outside
- grass outside the fences near the animals area is not bad, but if it's inside the fences then they can be eaten by the animals + more areas for pigs to dig truffles
- it looks a little hard to reach the trees with tappers?
- can you access the cave easily with the stable and tractor there?
sorry if that's too much, hopefully you find something helpful 
Anyone got riverland suggestions?
im on year 5 spring currently and i think im done designing my farm but i'm still unsure on what to do with grandpas shrine, anyone have any suggestions? anything is appreciated!
It's very beautiful. But It looks a little messy to me. At least to the naked eye.
haha thanks :0 i saw a lot of really neat symmetrical farms and i wanted to go in the opposite direction kinda. i think i did well enough :)

@obsidian plaza
Even with its asymmetry its beautiful! I like what you have started for grandpas shrine. Why not do a not-so-straight pathway to it and like the sides with trees all the ay to it, or flowers/seasonal plants?
ooo i like the tree-lined cobblestone pathway to the shrine
hmm maybe add some more decor or other smallish stuff?
this is my farm and i took inspiration from other farms online
what should i change/improve/add?
I dont know what to do in the middle either
well, it’s really cute and i love the layout. however i’d get rid of those trees and replace it with crop space. fruit trees are more better inside the greenhouse, but it’s totally up to you to keep them wherever
you can plant the trees (you should def plant oak trees for oak resin) near the railroad or anywhere else****
for the middle you can always use it for more crop space, decorations, or sheds, totally up to you. or save up for a golden clock and put that there.
You can also plant them where NPCS do walk...
Why'd you mention npc walk paths when it comes to trees?
i forgot that the “npcs destroy stuff in their path” thing didnt apply to trees

yeah, 100,000g is still pretty good for year 1 tbh if you’re a casual player
Oh casual
Okay yeah I guess that's fair but
I'm not casual
Bought game a month ago and jumped right into co-op w/ partner. This is my single player that I played in parallel, though not playing past co-op's progress
K
gosh riverland looks pretty in winter
Enjoyed the designs posted on here, much regret on starting out w/ the smallest usable land
I was actually thinking how bad it looked in winter lol
I was thinking the opposite of you jonqora
I really like the snow plus the two-toned water
im making a farm in stardew valley planner v2
and how do i make it so it shows the roofs of houses like sheds and make the crops actual crops rather than just a picture of the crop where you want it to be
there are options to render your layout (and you can pick the season)
oh! ty
upload.farm and Stardew Planner use the same rendering system though?
Like upload.farm is actually what makes the image for planner, when you choose render in <season> from top right
thats really neat and organized, i like it 
I'd recommend getting rid of those trees for more crops
There pointless to keep on the farm
I think the grove is pretty
The normal trees ofc
they look nice though
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I made this with planner v2 what should i change
I personally think they looks out of place and un-natural making them like a sore spot to look at for my eyes
thats really nice, i like what you did with the middle 
thank you 
Please remember to put path under sprinklers
yeah I would do that in game but I couldn't do that in the planner
whenever i placed something on top of a path it would delete the path lmao
There's a mod for that
Other wise that's not gonna happen
@zealous escarp
Yea I saw this one! Its a bit buggy right now though I'd keep an eye on it 
how's my farm layout ? https://upload.farm/static/renders/1KcKDY/1KcKDY-plan.png
My first farm!
working on it but it gets better every season i think.. im Y2 Summer
Open to any suggestions!
I actually like how your farm is starting out, @dusky crow . 4 corners is a personal favorite in regards to space. I see a lot of your pathing is 2 tiles wide, especially around your crops. When you start upgrading to iridium sprinklers you may want to reconsider this and expand your overall crop space, which means reducing the width of your pathing overall.
@ Cake- that corner is probably not developed yet dear. ALSO, HI!
Fair but even if that's the case, id recommend clearing it out sooner than later and using the space
In debate, not clearing it out gives increased chance of shroom tree in the fall. 
Yes, its the same for your room - if you dont clean it once a while there is chance for mold
Finally managed to play my file some as i'm slowly getting sick and slept my afternoon away. - This is Y2 Summer Day & Night views. In reference, the last posted photo was spring Y2.
Progress has certainly been made!
Shoutout to @red obsidian for help with my little village area and shed remake on the southern part of my map.
Thanks for opinions! I like to keep the one area to the left growing with lots of trees since i havent really started work there yet and its nice to have a wood supply. But yes the paths are 2 tiles wide so that when i upgrade i have room, if that makes sense? Like i will take out one or two lines of path and then it will fit the iridium sprinklers
maybe not the best plan though hahah
but i dont have any iridium sprinklers yet except in my greenhouse
It'll come with time! :D
This was the original plan design i did - i guess there are two lines of pathing here too!
Pff. More room for expanding. You got this!
And I am not planning on doing as many flowers anymore hahaha
Oh wow @little sonnet your farm looks incredible 😮
nice farm
guys can you give me any tips on what to change, only thing im proud of is the mushroom forest( year 3 going )
im not an expert lol but it looks like u dont have much grass for ur animals?
My WIP farm. Farm is the "Farm Extended".
^^ Love that
I am moving the bee houses to the south of the crop area, might plant more regular trees
yea pigs eat alot of grass, usually bottom is covered but im also preparing hay for winter...
guys can you give me any tips on what to change, only thing im proud of is the mushroom forest( year 3 going )
@gloomy pine
Alright - you asked for it!
2 words: Crop space! I'd expand out your crop space or use more of it.
Dont forget now that you have the greenhouse built you can put up to 18 fruit trees in there adn they'll grow year round.
I think you can move your tree farm/tap farm off site. Between Cindersnap forest, the mountains, and desert you should have a sustainable wood-chop source or at least earn enough to buyt he wood outright.
People usually turn other places in a tap farm to capitalize on farm space or add extra sheds and things.
I love your 🍄 forest! I think its whimsical that its right next to grandpa's grave and as they expand more itll make for a nice little path there!
Not that these are needs but I don't see lightning rods or beehouses [ which are good for farm totems cause honey] If you don't have any i'd consdier putting some out. Lightning rods make battery packs which you need for iridium sprinklers.
Out of preference i would have grouped your fruit trees together a little more. Your pathing can be thinned out in some areas too unless you like the broader paths.
In critique, the farm looks a bit bare to me and I think that's due to the placement of items and all. But that's just me.
Oops it was more of a respectful title, thank you madam. And yes it is bare since its my first playthrough. I didnt want to overdo anything because its easier to add than remove. Sadly i only have 4 beehives i am saving up resources for more. I have about 7 lightning rods. I also have a buch of seeds for trees so i can plant them down near marnie huh didnt know that. Greenhouse is filled with coffee currently, we were gonna slowly fill it with ancient fruit. We need alot of iridium for sprinklers before we can expand our crop space. Thanks for the tips again
Hello Folks 🙂 This is my farm. I'm using a modded layout, any suggestions or critisisms are welcome. I'm at the end of Spring my 3rd year (that's why some of my fields are empty)
There's a few little spaces I'm not sure what to do with yet

@elfin whale
Why don't you swap the space of your barns and coops since the coops have the bigger lot? Looks like a good truffle-hunting space to me!
Your farm also looks practically complete to me. In empty spaces you can think about seasonal plants or using the Furniture Anywhere mod to put furniture outside and such. Merely thoughts!
Hmm the coop and barn swap does sound like a good idea. I haven't checked out the furniture anywhere mod, but I'll be sure to. Thank you 🙂
no sprinklers?
What are those purple square plants?
fruit trees
Ya know, it didn't occur to me that it was one of those weird screenshots lol
@elfin whale how about placing some fish ponds on the grass patch down from the shrine?
@coarse gazelle I had that in my original plan. but I may put more sheds. I've been putting it off since I can't decide 😅 Thank you for the suggestion
Can be more sheds too, depends what you want more. Personally I'd pick ponds cause I don't feel the need to keg everything and prefer the water look
I agree they do look better for sure
i really like your farm, its aesthetically pleasing
@elfin whale
Shoutout to @red obsidian for help with my little village area and shed remake on the southern part of my map.
@little sonnetto you and
to how that farm is going!
I'm not far from finishing mine! Might be this weekend even
I lowkey don’t know how people r so good at designing
Yes
Guys I need a tip, should I keep my farm with a 5x5 room for plants or should I switch to 3x3
why do you want to switch to 3x3?
if you're using iridium sprinklers then 5x5 is the area they cover
I don't have access to iridium currently
So should I get a deluxe sprinker which covers 3x3
Those are very useful in the early to midgame yes. Worth making for sure
I have 120 on my one savefile 👀
anyone have some sick hilltop farm designs? 👀 i want to arrange mine but i need some ideas c:
@elfin whale ebick farm
@granite lily I can show you mine at some point today. Itll be about noon before I can due to work
@dusky crow that is one fine loooking farm !👍
Hello, This is my farm at the beginning of year 3, I plan to add one more shed and also fews jars near of the fish ponds! Do you think that I have enought crops ( 558 exactly ) ?
Futhermore, I'm not sure that the junimos huts cover all my crops
Looks like they're all covered by the huts to me! And yes, I think that's plenty of crops :)
Futhermore, I'm not sure that the junimos huts cover all my crops
@empty cipher
Your junimo huts work similar to that of a quality sprinkler, if you think about it that way.
X X X
X J X
X X X
So, if you place a junimo hut in the center of 8 iridium sprinklers, it should cover the entire area.
Oh ok, thank you
Additionally, I would move your barn down to the empty area and give them more room to breathe. Your pigs don't have enough space to expand and dig for truffles,e specially with as many as you have. And more crop space, despite having 558, also never hurts if you can't figure out anything else to add.
The space where the barn is now would be ideal for a coup, but barns with pigs need way more room. I also noticed you have another barn nex tto your stabel - i'd move that too.
hmm in my opinion you can try to use the land more effectively and bring the best out of the features you have. a few stuff I can think of right now:
- honey sells for more when they are near flowers, so usually people go with a certain format to make that happen effectively
- the junimo huts will be more effective if they cover all your crops
- scarecrows right next to the sprinklers is quite unusual. I mean the space can be used for crops while you put the scarecrows outside
- grass outside the fences near the animals area is not bad, but if it's inside the fences then they can be eaten by the animals + more areas for pigs to dig truffles
- it looks a little hard to reach the trees with tappers?
- can you access the cave easily with the stable and tractor there?
@bitter sedge
Sorry for the late reply but thanks a bunch. I kinda see the problems. I am in summer, in winter I'll move the houses around and see.
Hut and tractor next to house, hives in two rows where tractor is?
@gloomy pine the two rows of hives used to have a flower farm in front of it hahaha. But i kinda fixed it as well. I haven't done major changes. I'll drop a few pics soon. Thanks for the suggestions, and sorry for the late reply!
Of course, and it’s fine
Also I saw some huge ass farm layouts. Are those mods?
This was my final hilltop i did before i deleted the save-file due to retiring. Its definitely not the layout of a min-max but to me it was very pretty in the end of it all. This layout is an un-modded render. The true end was a lot better i'll see if i can't find it.
@granite lily
That is one PRETTY farm goodness
I finally started to dip my toes into a few visual mods too
@deft crow I think the bigger ones are just diff maps
Very minute changes but working on it still.
Ahh gotcha, thanks!
I wanted a farm with more variation to the land. Rivers and other stuff.
Yeah, four corners is my fav so far
Water, good for multiplayer, has a mining spot, big,
Modded farm of my hilltop.
It was one of the last days i played it, before i moved everything around to the final layout.
that is beautiful
i'm not a fan of the plain wood floors, i don't think they contrast very well with the stone
have you tried weathered floor? it's a bit darker and might look better (in my opinion)
but that's very nice
behold
my farm layout
here is it in Upload.farm
if you want to edit anything, here is the link so you can change it: https://stardew.info/planner/13-bitter-geese-sang-jovially/
Plan your Stardew Valley farm! ...on a coffee break!
have you tried weathered floor? it's a bit darker and might look better (in my opinion)
@torn pebble will give that a try
Best looking non mod farm is definitely the wilderness farm, it’s so pretty and cause not many people use it you can make unique pretty layouts
i use it
looks great
gonna do a hilltop farm when 1.5 comes out, i need to start a new farm
i want t different feel from what i have now
@little sonnet what mod do you use that changes the color of the buildings and the trees? its very cute 
I think its Eemie's medieval stuff i use, and then flower valley
thank you
the crop i just planted today i dont need to water them right?
no you dont have too, also i dont think this is the right place to ask this
The inside of my house
no you dont have too, also i dont think this is the right place to ask this
@weary folio oops forgot to switch channel mb
its alright dw
its a little messy imo
it looks really nice 
Hah Thanks
omfg i love that sm
@blissful ridge
Theyre reskinned
Is that your farm?
Ohh
@ HakunaMatata#1226
How do you get ideas for the design?
i dunno dm them lmao
just based on what you need @blissful ridge
sheds are for money aswell as coops and barns are used for products to make money
fish are used for money and useful items
slime hutch idk
plants are for money and community center
Here is my crappy design.
not bad but lots of wasted space
@red obsidian do u have a farm design for river for cabbage
I normally use standard and hilltop
Hey
The recolors are from this mod
(I Chose the blue roofs)
Nope, sorry IceBear, haven't played a Riverlands farm
hilltop?
Let me check if I finished my hilltop, I may have not, though
I have finished standard and 4 corners for sure
However if you have a sketch, a beginning or anything I can try helping you out with some tweaking based on what you want to focus the farm on
Oh! Did you play on PC? Any chance steam saved it?
I know Steam might get your saves in the Steam cloud, though not sure how it works
I guess i can quickly sketch something
Sure, share with me and we can work from it!
You can send me the link of the planner
Wait, so, you're going for a standard map?
Yeah
Then I have a few designs for that
(I like the clock with flowers in front tho, that's a keeper)
thank you!
Sure
Mills look nice, but game tip tho, you really don't need two of them. I always get one built and use it, but you never need 2 of those
what do they do?
Stable next to the house is a Yes, always
They turn wheat into wheat flour and beets into sugar
Yeah, I would even move it left of the greenhouse
Left of the green house?
and place more flowers around, that would make a super pretty spot
yeah, between the greenhouse and granpa's shrine
let's see
Also my bee house
@queen yew Can beehives work...indoors?
not without a mod
place a tree area left of the greenhouse
@blissful ridge Aah you'll do an orchard there? That would be good
Orchard?
I also usually like a cleaner way out of the greenhouse
Orchard?
@blissful ridge bunch of fruit trees = orchard
How would you feel about changing the mills in front of the small pond
something like... give me a sec
Hmm
Maybe also a tree or something
Wait
Yeah
I was going to place a barn there
But i guess that also works
How to I place fruit trees again?
the spacing?
Fruit trees, in the planner actually show the full footprint you need
It's like a quality sprinkler
foot print of the fruit trees
It's the planner's default, let me show you
okay
It's already 3x3:
So that's where you can't place anything else, 3x3
If you wanted the barn close to the pond, can I try and suggest something?
wait
- you can't plant any trees in the 3x3?
if so, why do I get the "too close" message?
Like this (where E means empty tile and T means Tree):
E E E E E E
E T E E T E
E E E E E E
The game won't let you plant closer than that, it will tell you
okay
This way the trees will grow and produce, and each year that passes increase the quality by 1 star
what is the best tree?
Profit wise? Pomegranate and peaches
In general?
The pretty on a farm design I guess is up to personal taste
no like, price to sell price wise, which is the best?
if so, why do I get the "too close" message?
@blissful ridge if you're talking about the messages like "your cherry tree couldn't grow last night", that happens if there is grass or weeds/logs/stones, crops, objects, or anything else in the spaces next to the growing tree
Oh, not in that way
But the too close message happens when you try to plant it too
It said, tree to close to plant
ah I see
E E E E E E
E T E E T E
E E E E E E
That's cause this wasn't happening, you were closer
Yeah, that's good
Ok! Brb
I would put my crop space down where it can be more expanded
okay
maybe left of the house can have bee houses or a shed?
I'm back
Oh good
Good, I find that's a good spot for the beehives, yeah
If you plan to have pigs to dig truffles, widening them could give a bit more space, but otherwise I like the buildings on the side
Wait
put some lightning rods in the grass just in case
@dusty atlas great idea!
2/3 tiles
only if you want to
Maybe a spot for a few fish ponds?
where?
usually looks in theme around the big pond, that'd give a nice look
Or to the left side under the part that sticks out
I would do 3, or 4 tops
I had an idea.. I noticed the farm ended up without the Mill, how about this? (with some pathing around, any floor you prefer)
hm
I want the mill to be in tall grass
You can surround everything with tall grass
the ponds look quite good between grass too
exactly what I was doing

Hey
Yeah
what about some trees to spice it up a bit?
How is it that you do this?
What do you mean? Like how I get the ideas?
The normal trees grow like this
