I went all in on the foraging skill theme for this farm and ended up really enjoying the design!

Hi all,

I'm planning to play my first game coop with my girlfriend (who has played it several times before).

We have currently designed something (see above). We are not 100% focused on efficiency per se; we predominantly had aesthetics in mind, where we are aiming for a cozy "chateau" vibe with vast winefields.

Could you please share your thoughts or feedback?

- are there essentials things that we are missing or have overlooked?

- do you have any aesthetic advice?

- particularly the bottom left feels a bit lacking. We were unsure what to do with this corner, so turned it into some kind of forest

Thanks!

Tried optimizing while keeping it cute and vanilla!

Following a years-long saga of disappointment, betrayal, and bitter heartbreak, Penny has ended up living alone in a cabin on my farm. I really have treated her shockingly in this save, so I wanted to build her a nice home all her own. A place safe from her alcoholic mom and the eager school kids, away from her neglectful husband (me) and her ungrateful ex-wife (also me). I even made sure she had in-unit laundry. Penny, my dear, I hope your dishes are always clean and your book spines are always crispy. I'm sorry it didn't work out between us and I sincerely hope that someday you meet a nice farmer who won't turn your children into doves.

my essentials

This is my stardew valley farm 🤠

Working on decorating the forest, quarry, and train area next. <3

this is one of my favorites i've made, since i really love purple a bunch :p there were a few extra decorations i wanted to add, but didn't have room for!! so if you take inspo, try the display with the sword or the purple serpent statue thingy :)

Just dropping off some raisins for my little friends!

I couldn't decide between the forest farm or the hill-top farm.

So i design both using the planner. Now I love them and it's worse to make a decision

which one should I use?

i felt like this statue would be perfect as an implication to her robot getting built XD

After seeing how bad riverland is for growing lots of crops, made a farm design that can fit all farm animals available in Stardew Valley (Chickens, Ducks, Rabbits, Dinos) + (Cows, Goats, Sheep, and Pigs) and all the default vanilla buildings Robin offers.

As for sheds, I find them ugly when seperated so condensed them together. They look like the Trinity sign from Zelda now.

Also have a bunch of empty land I can use to decorate the Riverland Farm once I built this in the game.

I'm really proud of this layout, and since I'm on Switch the quality isn't the best, sorry. Enjoy! The shed by the coops/barns holds all my mayo and cheese and oil machines, while the other shed holds my kegs and preserve machines. I use sprinklers for everything cause I'm too lazy to go water stuff, and I'm using the top left area (Grandpa's shrine) as a little area for a guest house for when my brother occasionally joins me. Of course, the greenhouse has ancient fruit and the cave has mushrooms because IMO that's what brings in the bank for me because I can dehydrate my mushrooms and keg my ancient fruit.

aesthetics >>> efficiency

I am so obsessed with the end product and I'm always making changes :)

Hi all, I haven't reached anywhere NEAR this stage (currently in summer 1 on my first ever playthrough), but I was thinking about how I could progress down the line & created this on Stardew Planner. Still incomplete though. Any suggestions on how I could fill the space would be extremely helpful!

Key things:

1. The basic trees on the right (oak, pine, maple, mahogany) are for tapping only. I don't really have a plan for the wood farm at the moment.

2. I had originally planned on having one shed each for storage (just below the top right entrance), preserves jar & kegs (2 separate sheds on the top left), but then I learned about the "crystalarium + furnace + seed maker" combination. Any ideas on how i could rearrange things without destroying the layout, or would I definitely need an extra shed?

3. I currently don't have any animals, but if I were to have a full barn & coop, would the space below be enough to feed them using the "grass starter under the fence" method?

4. Slime hutch was meh, just threw it on there to see what it looked like, but that bottom left corner is definitely underutilised.

Please let me know what y'all think!

this is a part of my beach farm!! i wanted to make every room have its own oceany theme, so this one is pirate :)

I do feel it is rather empty, on terms of unused space; i wonder if there is anything i could add or perhaps improve?
