Necessary Tools and Materials for Farming

• Cultivator
• Fencing
• Seeds
• Beehives (optional)

The cultivator becomes available after defeating the first boss, Eikthyr. To craft it, you will need 5 units of core wood and 5 units of bronze. Additionally, you need to install fences to protect your plants from monsters and wild animals.

How to Obtain Seeds

Before planting crops, you need to find seeds. Here are some ways to do that:

• Onion Seeds: Found in abandoned huts and chests in the mountain biome.
• Carrot Seeds: Found in the Black Forest.
• Turnip Seeds: Collected from turnip flowers in the swamp biome.

Consider setting up beehives for added protection and productivity on your farm. They should be placed on the edges of the plot, near the fence, ensuring enough space for honey production.

How to Organize a Farm

Once you have gathered all the necessary resources, you can start creating your farm. It’s best to start as soon as possible, as this will give you quicker access to food, especially if you already have a cauldron. Food can be a decisive factor in the battle against the second boss, The Elder.

Use the cultivator to prepare the soil for planting. Then, install fences to protect the crops from enemies. After that, it's time to place the seeds. If you start farming right after defeating the first boss, it's best to plant carrots. To do this, you first need to gather carrot seeds, which can be found in the Black Forest.

Don’t stop at a one-time collection of carrot seeds. After harvesting grown carrots, you can use them as seeds for new planting. Consider creating an additional small plot for planting seed plants to ensure stable yields. You can also allocate part of your main plot for this purpose.

Focus on obtaining seed plants in the first few seasons, as this will ensure a constant supply of seeds. Each seed plant will provide you with 3 seeds, allowing you to keep some for further planting.
