Any suggestions for me? I started with the default farm.
I want to see some order and structure here really. Right now I'm focusing on community center, but god do I hate how unorganized this farm looks.
The sections have been labelled pretty aptly. I've made some good progress on the community center, but I guess it's at the expense of my own farm.
I really just want a good looking and all-rounder kind of farm :sob:
Happy to answer any questions you ask. The image is kinda low-res because I wasn't able to upload a larger one. How do people recommend I divvy the map up for sections and such? I want it to have related stuff close by, and more importantly, look organized and be easy to deal with. What would be some recommendations?
Thanks again!
It can be a bit big at first but the Stardew Valley Farm Planner really helped me. Shows ranges of things like sprinklers and scarecrows. If you want to future-proof but be a little awkward in the meantime, I like to farm in 5x5 plots, connected as and when I like for larger plots. You can also make sure you're all lined up (Helps avoid "Crap, if I want a fence here i have to shift the ENTIRE farm by 1 tile" and such). Save your work and write down your url when done, you won't remember it.
I like to have 1 side be livestock (usually left) and the other farm land. But that can change depending on what kind of farm you want and what specializations you pick. Greenhouse is also a priority, so community center is a good focus. Make sure you get the seasonal crops for the greenhouse in Y1 if you can. Waiting for the second autumn because you missed a pumpkin sucks.
You can also look into sheds from Robin when you can afford them. They take up a relatively small area (2x4? I think?) so you can place your equipment in that footprint wherever you want a shed, then quickly move them out of the way, build, and move inside when you can afford it. Designate an area for silos that don't block parts of your farm you want to see, as they are tall. Upgrade tools as your farm grows (TACTICALLY. Watering can waits till winter, don't upgrade your hoe last day of the season when you need to replant the next day, or your axe when you need wood asap, etc), or it will get to be too much to keep up with energy- and time-wise
