The Almanac

Crops

Eleven crops, four seasons, one shared rule: water speeds every stage, rain waters for free, and a crop left in the ground when its season ends is compost. Companion tags matter, plant tomatoes by roots and keep nightshades apart.

Turnip Spring

Seeds 15g at Pierre’s · grows in 3 days · sells 20g

Grandma's recipe calls for ten of these.

Tomato Spring Summer

Seeds 18g at Pierre’s · grows in 6 days · sells 25g each, picks ×2

The tang of high summer in a fist-sized fruit.

Companion planting: grows faster beside roots, slower beside nightshades.

Pumpkin Fall

Seeds 22g at Pierre’s · grows in 9 days · sells 30g

Heavy enough to test a back-cart.

Companion planting: grows faster beside nightshades.

Corn Summer Fall

Seeds 27g at Pierre’s · grows in 7 days · sells 28g each, picks ×2 · 20% chance of a bonus pick

Sweet enough to eat raw, if no one is watching.

Companion planting: grows faster beside squash and roots.

Strawberry Spring

Seeds 45g at Pierre’s · grows in 5 days · regrows every 3 days · sells 80g · 20% chance of a bonus pick

Worth its weight in gold at the Egg Festival.

Radish Spring Summer

Seeds 12g at Pierre’s · grows in 2 days · sells 18g · 10% chance of a bonus pick

Bites back a little. Earns its keep before the week is out.

Cranberry Fall

Seeds 52g at Pierre’s · grows in 6 days · regrows every 3 days · sells 45g · 25% chance of a bonus pick

Tart enough to pucker a scarecrow. Keeps till midwinter.

Ancient Melon Summer

Seeds 90g at Pierre’s · grows in 12 days · sells 220g · 12% chance of Prized Ancient Melon (360g)

The seed packet is older than the town hall. Worth the wait.

Companion planting: grows faster beside nightshades.

Carrot Fall

Seeds 18g at Pierre’s · grows in 4.5 days · sells 24g · 15% chance of a bonus pick

Pulls clean from the cold soil with a satisfying snap.

Hot Pepper Summer

Seeds 42g at Pierre’s · grows in 6 days · regrows every 3 days · sells 40g · 20% chance of a bonus pick

Glossy little flames on the vine. Handle before you rub your eyes.

Companion planting: grows faster beside roots, slower beside nightshades.

Snow Yam Winter

Seeds 60g at Pierre’s · grows in 10 days · sells 70g · 12% chance of Prized Snow Yam (130g)

Sweetens in the cold. The only thing worth digging for in deep winter.

Prized variants: Ancient Melon and Snow Yam each have a 12% chance to harvest as a Prized version (Prized Ancient Melon 360g, Prized Snow Yam 130g).

Fruit trees

Apple tree Fall

Sapling 150g · 28 days to mature · then 1 Apple per day, holds 3 · fruit sells 40g

Grows and fruits only in Fall; a mature tree sits dormant the rest of the year.

Peach tree Summer

Sapling 150g · 28 days to mature · then 1 Peach per day, holds 3 · fruit sells 50g

Grows and fruits only in Summer; a mature tree sits dormant the rest of the year.

Animals

All ten are bought from Rancher Marnie (open 09:00 to 18:00) and live in coops or barns. Everyone eats one Hay a day. Hand-feeding builds affection; at 750 affection, birds and cows upgrade their daily product (large eggs, duck feathers, large milk). A Silo feeds unfed animals automatically at day rollover, but only hand-feeding wins hearts. An animal left hungry for three or four days dies, permanently.

Fish

Twenty species by season and water. Difficulty sets your strike window at the bobber: an easy Carp gives you nearly a second and a half, the Legendary about half that. Rarity roll per bite: 70% Common, 20% Uncommon, 8% Rare, 2% Legendary.

Icon	Fish	Seasons	Water	Difficulty	Sells
	Anchovy	Spring Fall	Ocean, Pond	30	30g

	Stonefish Rare	All year	Pond	90	300g

	Anglerfish Epic	Fall Winter	Ocean	92	650g
	Legendary Legendary	All year	Pond, River, Ocean	99	5,000g

The starter farm’s pond is Pond water. River and Ocean species wait for future maps, so Tuna is on the books but not on the hook yet. The two Epic fish sit outside the current rarity roll, so Glacier Koi and Anglerfish can’t be landed on the pond either.

Fifty-seven recipes across four stations. Kitchen dishes need Cooking levels and feed you energy for the day’s work; the forge and workbench turn raid hauls into weapons, armor, and gear; the alchemy bench brews the potions you’ll wish you had packed.

Tools

Six tools upgrade at the farm forge: hand over the tool, five ore, and the fee, then sleep on it. The ladder is the same for every tool: Copper costs 5 Copper Ore, 2,000g, and one night; Steel, 5 Iron Ore, 5,000g, and two nights; Gold, 5 Gold Ore, 10,000g, and two; Iridium, 5 Steel Bars, 25,000g, and three. Gold-tier and above also cuts many action costs from 2 energy to 1.

Icon	Tool	Upgrade path	Notes
	Hoe	Copper → Steel → Gold → Iridium
	Watering Can	Copper → Steel → Gold → Iridium	Charges grow 20 → 40 → 60 → 80 → 100.
	Axe	Copper → Steel → Gold → Iridium
	Pickaxe	Copper → Steel → Gold → Iridium
	Sickle	Copper → Steel → Gold → Iridium
	Fishing Rod	Copper → Steel → Gold → Iridium

Backpacks

Everyone raids with the same 16-slot match inventory, and everyone’s safe pocket, the slots that come home even when you don’t, starts at two. Owning an Explorer’s Rucksack in farm storage raises it to four; the smaller packs are the crafting road that leads there.

Buildings

Commissioned from Carpenter Robin (09:00 to 20:00): pay gold and materials, sleep the listed nights, wake up to a building.
