Picked up the Qi fruit quest at the beginning of Spring. Let's see if I make it. I may have taken too much time out to participate in festivals to succeed, but I've got a week left and about 350 fruits to ship, with 7 iridium sprinklers' worth growing, some of it on quality speed-gro, cutting a day from the growth cycle.

Built the last obelisk on the farm (apart from the mini obelisks), got the final artifact for the museum, and shipped the last few items. I guess it's time to turn my focus to the remaining fish, and seeing what's left to get the polyculture and monoculture achievements.

Did get a fair few mummies and serpents during the desert festival, but not enough to reach the goal for either.

Sebastian said we should get a slime hutch and hatch a bunch of slimes. I'm vetoing it. Riverland is a bit short on space. First child is a toddler, but so far no request of getting a second child.
Second child is not neccesary! Spoil the first one lol.

I know it's not necessary. The first one got the golden helmet on becoming a toddler. Keeps her a bit safer when careening about the house. The second would get the star helmet if he got to toddler stage before I reach perfection, but as the days go by it seems more and more unlikely it will happen. Not much more that can be done to spoil them, apart from putting down a few stuffed animals and talking to them every day.

I personally think this logic applies to real life very well lol. Parents can focus on one child better and also allocate funds more than to neglect multiple children. Stardew sucks when it comes to children tho.

Most farming games are poor at handling child growth and tend to end up freezing time/development for them at one point or another. Exceptions do exist, like Harvest Moon: A wonderful life, but they are rare.

It was going to be my first time displaying something. (I've never decorated anything in 54 years.) My plan was to show all 378 Combined Rings on 1 screen on my Ginger Island Farm. But apparently you can't put Rings on tables :/
I already completely destroyed my Ginger Island Farm. Ha, oh wells ^.^

I never thought in my 19 years of living I’d have gamer rage. But this was the day I was absolutely LIVID. And im not an easily angered person xD
I have gamer rage too and lmaoo triggers are so different for everyone. I'm a big fan of GTA VC and I have completed the game numerous times. (Recently completed it again.)But I still rage when I can't beat Keep Your Friends Close on the first try lol. I won't ever get enraged by a Feast of The Winter Star gift tho. (My first feast has Shane as my gifter AND YOU KNOW I HATE SHANE.)

I thought it might be nice to have a place where people can report on their farm's goings-on and the adventures of their farmer, kind of like this thread at The Sims forums. I'll kick things off!


I am still very new to the game and in mid-summer of my second year at Peacefield Farm. In the first year, I was able to learn the basics of the game, and start becoming marginally successful: by the end I was selling honey, mayonnaise, maple syrup, and jams in addition to regular crops. I also used the winter to (mostly) change my fields to be oriented around sprinklers. My goals for year two were multiple: one, get to the bottom of the mines (I'd gone from 1 to 105 in winter alone): two, expand the house; three, build more farm infrastructure like a stable, a barn, and a silo; and four, tackle the overgrowth on my little islands and expand my fields. As of this morning (Summer 15) things are going well on those fronts! I got to the bottom of the mines almost immediately, and have built a barn and filled it with four cows. I also just expanded the house, so now I can start crafting food! I had a bunch of rain days in the early summer, so I used those to attack the big island and have created a larger field there. I'm also using the little strip of land just north of the road that goes to Marnie's as an orchard. My immediate plan is to explore cooking. Farmwise, my plans are to get a silo so I don't have to plant so much wheat or buy hay from Marnie; expand the coop so I can get duck eggs; continue harvesting hardwood for a stable; and continue expanding on the second island. I want the silo first because there's a lot of grass on the big island that I don't want to waste.
Love this idea farm journals are always fun to follow especially as the seasons roll on.
You have made impressive progress for year two already looking forward to seeing how Peace field Farm grows!
