Stardew Valley General Guide

Farming on the first day and going forward:

• Plant lots of beans since they take a while to grow but keep producing all season long. Save at least one for collections.
• Plant lots of parsnips since they grow quickly and are cheap. You also need to save five gold tier parsnips and one normal one for collections.
• Plant and save at least one potato for collections.
• Plant and save at least one cauliflower for collections.
• If you're interesting in making the most money possible, you should plant more cauliflower, as you will get an average of 7.9 coins a day which is the most efficent plant in first year Spring. The second most profitable is beans, which gives you an average of 7.2 coins a day.

• You can forage almost everywhere on the map that isn't water.
• For collections, you will need one wild horseradish, one daffofil, one leek, and one dandelion
