This video made me realize that I’m mostly playing stardew for the vibes and not trying to accomplish anything lol. I’m definitely not a serious player
so you are playing the game as intended and that's great! while I don't see a problem with people who are min maxxing or speedruning, I am not a fan of creators shaming people for buying flowers or low value crops, or for just playing slower in general. I think more people should play as you do :3
The most serious thing I do is try to get the community center done but once I’m finished with that season I just mine and fish most of the time which is chill tbh which is what I like
So: - silo next to house - LOTS of crops - several sheds for illegal mass production of alcohol - ignore fish ponds - leave room for some silly goobers Thank you Lummi! :)
Fish ponds aren’t great for money but they *are* useful for getting niche items in small but reasonable quantities. I had three ponds with midnight carp, flounder and squid to make quick seafoam pudding whenever I needed, and recently I’ve been grinding dragon’s teeth with a stingray pond bc I’m afraid of the volcano :)
Volcano honestly isn’t that bad, a crap ton of coffee, food with nice buffs, and reg food (cheese specifically) usually gets me in and out pretty fast!
Don't be afraid I hate combat too and I rarely go into the school cavern But the volcano is easier Everything needs practice Make sure to bring loads of food, bombs and you should be fine 😊
If you choose to go for fish ponds, top 3 to have for profit/items are lava eels, sturgeons, and stingrays. Also, set up one for midnight carp, flounder, and squid to have an infinite source of seafoam pudding.
I’m a big fan of blob fish personally. I might change it later but I got sturgeon, sea cuc, and blob fish running. Tho I’m not finding myself cooking so I might trade cuc out at this point.
i play on the riverland farm and you can perfectly tuck 4 fish ponds in the bottom left section which is a bit of an annoyingly shaped spot. I have blobfish, sturgeon, lava eels and stingrays.
I tried the layout where you put the Greenhouse in between the house and the stable, but still like the seamlessness of the stable connected to the roof best.
I only have animal coops and rarely decide to buy high sales price crops, I just love taking care of my animals and making sure they’re full on hearts, not only to make a lot of Moolah, but also to make sure my animals are as happy as can be because they deserve it!

Fish ponds can be useful though. If you put crab pot fish in a fish pond they give you coral which can be used to make a beach warp. The beach is where I spend most of my time because I place all my crab pots there for convenience. I love fishing if you couldn't tell. You can also use fish ponds to grow the materials you'd need for some food buffs
the fish ponds are actually pretty profitable! if you fill them with the night market fish and grow them to iridium quality, you can have a steady flow of income while you wait for crops to mature I used to do that on my old farm
I have the four corners farm, despite playing single player. This is how I lay out my farm: fruit trees, tapped trees, and trees for wood, animals and slimes are in the top right where the house is, sheds and a couple lightning rods are on the bottom right, where the little mine is, and crops are in the bottom left, because of the pond for rice. I always use a mill, just because I think it’s cool to not have to buy anything but vinegar. I typically choose mushrooms for the cave, because I can just get fruit trees. TLDR: I add lots of variety to my farm, even if it’s less profitable
I hate to burst your op on fish ponds. I make bank on them, the trick is to know what fish to put in. I recommend, Lava Eel, Sturgeon, and Sea Cucumber. Put their Roe in to the Preserving Bin to get Aged Roe, Caviar, and they also reward you with good treasure too.
I have 10 ponds , 6 with lava eel and 4 with assorted fish for items like tiger slime eggs and stingray for shards , lava eels are profitable and they give spicy eel time to time which are great
An upgraded barn full of pigs + the botanist profession is actually like an automated gold mine, all you have to do is let them out & pick up the truffles😌
Love the vids lummi my ex and I had a stardew map and I now play it solo it gets boring but I try and watch your vids while I play I’m in year 4 still love the game
I’m probably the only slime hutch supporter (I just think it’s fun to see what kind of slime eggs you get and it’s so satisfying to get all the slime) and like lummi said you make passive income OH and also you get lots of slime for oil makers which make you lots of money
You should make your farm look however you want. I put my silo next to the barn house and the chicken coop is on one of the little islands on the river farm.
my fave tip is getting 1-3 friends to join me to start (not even to begin playing) and getting them to clear out their cabin just so that i can use that as basically a free shed
I like stardew for the relaxing vibes and story, so I go pretty light on the grinding and usually pick the islands farm for a ton of fishing. I like to go in the mines if I get bored, so I am also a full on miner half the time.
Fish ponds are HUGE with certain fishes,like lava eels that gives you spicy eel and their eggs sell by 1024 gold when maturated and you can have at least 2 daily
A big part of the way I play is having access to anything I might need, so I tend to have everything and hoard things that might someday be useful it really helps out in late game
yo I love fish ponds because if you raise the right fish they're an easy way to get super rare items. super cucumbers can produce iriduim ore, and rainbow trout can even occasionally put out prismatic shards. Meanwhile I hardly ever use sheds lol
Slime hutch is often used as a spare shed for garden pot crops, and some put the egg presses outside the building so they can drop the slime into the press as they leave. I recommend dropping any regrowable crop with a decently long regrow time like pineapples, cranberries, eggplants, or if you really dont want to check tea saplings often until the end of the season.
I remember that a few days ago i started planning my farm so it would look good, i literally drew a map of the entire farm and spent hours planning and drawing my farm on the map
The mill can be pretty useful you first year or two. Wheat seeds are 10 gold, only take 4 days to grow, and grown in summer and fall. I like to just buy hundreds, and forget about them. You're bound to get 4 days of rain, so you really don't need to water them. Put them in the mill, and make them into bread, and you can sell each for 60G making a 6× profit with barely any effort
I like using wheat in all my crop beds for that little period between summer and fall to protects the deluxe speed-gro. Then I'll make a big supply of flour for future cooking. Besides, I found a mod that makes a nicer looking windmill (bigger blades so it looks more traditional) and it looks really nice.
I just started playing when the 1.6 update happened, so I went with the meadowlands farm. I’m still in the process of figuring out my layout as I go. Especially considering playing vanilla and working with the time. Moving buildings at Robin’s gives me a chance to really look and plan. Just started year 3, so now I’m just looking at optimizing efficiency with my morning tasks so I can explore the rest of what I didn’t do within the first 2 years, and to make more money. I got all 4 candles lit, but definitely didn’t reach perfection. I have a fully upgraded coop and barn. I’m considering one more of each, or at least one more barn for pigs. I have my 3rd shed being built (should be done next time I play). 5 fish ponds. A well, 3 silos, a mill. Mill does seem unnecessary unless you just want to be able to process your own sugar, rice, and wheat flour. Currently I’m moving stuff around and working with the patches of grass you can’t till on the meadowlands farm. So I’m scrapping the little farm spot that’s in front of the house and putting sheds there. The grass below has my fish ponds and smokers. Below that around the medium pond doing trees/mushroom logs and dehydrators by the cave. Near the entrance to Cindersap Forest I put the well and will grow crops in that bottom left part of the land. The mill on the little patch of grass that’s untillable near the smallest pond. The coop(s) by the big pond so ducks can swim. I will move barn(s) above that. Green house is where the coop originally starts and have flowers/beehives in front of it. I was thinking of when I get the obelisks and clock, they’ll go by grandpa’s shrine. And idk yet if I want the slime hutch, but if I do wherever it fits. Stable is attached to the left of the house. House fully upgraded plus 2 additional add-ons so far. I’m enjoying getting ideas from what others post when it comes to layouts and how it aligns with their play style.
I choose four corners and always put my farmland next to my barn. The pond area I use for storage buildings + crab pots for trash and fish. The quarry usually ends up being my tree farm and the other is where I put my animals
I think this works for any farm type given how you explained it. What I would love to see is your take on Stardew Valley Expanded extensions and Grandpa's Farm.
fish ponds are pretty good in my opinion especially blob fish at the population of nine and 10 every day there will almost certainly be a 1-2 roe the price of wich Mach the blob fish which is the second most expensive non-legendary fish just behind the lava eel but the main reason I like it is that it gives pearls and then there is also the super cucumber at the same amount of population that can give iridium ore and then the best fish to put in there in my opinion is the rainbow trout giving a pretty good chance of getting a prismatic shard compared to lots of other ways wall also being a passive way to get prismatic shards occasionally which is pretty good in the beginning when you don’t have the perfection thing unlocked and when the most other sources you’re not able to access. pearls are universally loved as well as prismatic shards and if you don’t have access to the skull caverns you might not see all that many iridium ore nodes but that’s just why I like those three specific fish for the ponds after really late game I’d say the rainbow trout would be pretty good late game ish as well as the blob fish that is if you plan to get full hearts with every villager
if you're grinding for wine or gemstones, you can place these building outside the farm too! Some easy spots are the stairway to the north and the tunnel
I always have like 4 silos by year 1s end so I never have to worry about getting more hay. I was traumatized in my first play through because I didn’t know about silos so I had a mad dash at the end of fall year 1 to get enough clay to build a silo, but by the time I got it built winter had come and I had to spend a bunch on hay from marine
good news: the slime hutch got buffed in 1.6! even if its still not very effective, its now half the size it was before, so its not too hard to squeeze in somewhere
I modded my Slime Hurch to be a Winery with extra space so I always go for it. With Automate, i just fill it with thousands of kegs and one chest for unholy amounts of money lmao
PRO TIP! YOU CAN PLACE THINGS ANYWHERE INCLUDING THE TOWN JUST SO LONG AS THEY AREN’T IN ANYONES WALKING PATH THEY’LL STAY MAKING SHEDS KINDA USELESS unless you like to decorate them then that’s understandable
I mostly have a fish pond for caviar, and one for squid ink, and then a couple for hard to catch fish if I need them for a recipe I want to make a lot.
my standard farm has: -silos at the far left of the farm near grandpa cause theres space for multiple -absolutely humongous farm in the middle maximising sprinkler, junimos and space -little farm to the right for coffee or flowers -machines under that -coop and barn under THAT -a butt tonne of kegs at the bottom left -the greenhouse next to the kegs it makes sense i swear ill get sheds eventually
I always put my silo pretty far away from everything else, towards the bottom, because you pretty much never need to interact with it and I won't be expanding towards the bottom of my farm for quite some time.
Maybe I’m being extra but I like to have my silo in an open area so I can build four fields around it and make it look like a cool little upside down flower
Tired: using fish ponds for money Wired: using sea cucumber fish ponds to make Lucky Lunches for niche rare item huntung. (Also the Midnight Squid (for the most ink)+Midnight Carp+Flounder combo for Seafoam Pudding)
now, im not saying its insanely profitable, BUT The super cucumber fish pond gives you passive iridium, im not passing that up, i dont like minmaxing the caverns
Slime hutch allows you to get slime eggs, which can sell for more than prismatic shards (tiger slime) Fish ponds with lava eels can get you aged lava eel roe, selling for over 1,000 gold each. Fish ponds with blowfish can get you pearls. Ponds with rainbow trout (or something like that) can get you prismatic shards. Mill is useless. Animals tend to be more profitable than plants, too.
My layout is silo, coop, and barn far left in front of gpas tomb, crops in front of house. First year my chests and makers go right next to house by dogs water bowl
I try to balance my farm on Profits and Aesthetics. doesn't have to be the most profitable farm, it just has to look pretty while making me rich + a way to satiate my hoarding
Personally I don't mind taking a bit of my summer and fall to grow 50 wheat over and over, makes making food for gifts and health items much easier than buying it from Pierre.
My ADHD and OCD brain decided 4 corners is the way to go, top right is my house and pretty stuff, top left is farming, bottom left is animals and fish ponds, bottom right is artisinal goods
This video made me realize that I’m mostly playing stardew for the vibes and not trying to accomplish anything lol. I’m definitely not a serious player

Thank you Lummi! :)
Replace some shed with a cabin and if you upgrade it fully you can just take out the furniture and have way more space compared to a shed.
great summary😎😎
@@Lummi.a Do you use the cabins? I think they are smaller than sheds and can have more space then them.

Agreed! I love my fish ponds (so much so that I’m doing a beach farm fish farm save rn where my goal is to complete a fish pond for every fish)

Always put horse stable connected to the house. Not only does it fit roof wise, youll also use the horse all the time
Me too. The way the roof blends is just too satisfying.

you should make a series of this and diffrent types of farms
I put the stable next to the house with a little fence, my barn and coop next to each other with the silo tucked into the trees
I choose four corners and always put my farmland next to my barn. The pond area I use for storage buildings + crab pots for trash and fish. The quarry usually ends up being my tree farm and the other is where I put my animals
With a few of the fisheries and a sturgeon in each you can get caviar and you can preserve that to make a lot of money
i can hear seaniedew cackling and screaming after hearing those abt slime hutches
For the longest time I thought you had to have your silo connected to your animal buildings

PRO TIP! YOU CAN PLACE THINGS ANYWHERE INCLUDING THE TOWN JUST SO LONG AS THEY AREN’T IN ANYONES WALKING PATH THEY’LL STAY MAKING SHEDS KINDA USELESS unless you like to decorate them then that’s understandable
fish ponds for farming eels! cause we love the benefits of spicy eel on my farm
I mostly have a fish pond for caviar, and one for squid ink, and then a couple for hard to catch fish if I need them for a recipe I want to make a lot.
Currently playing on the beach farm and getting fish ponds for all the fish! 😂
Theyre just neat
my standard farm has:
-silos at the far left of the farm near grandpa cause theres space for multiple
-absolutely humongous farm in the middle maximising sprinkler, junimos and space
-little farm to the right for coffee or flowers
-machines under that
-coop and barn under THAT
-a butt tonne of kegs at the bottom left
-the greenhouse next to the kegs
it makes sense i swear ill get sheds eventually
Slime hutches are great for producing slime eggs on a multiplayer farm :)
I like my nuclear silos close to my home too. Thank you very much
I always put my silo pretty far away from everything else, towards the bottom, because you pretty much never need to interact with it and I won't be expanding towards the bottom of my farm for quite some time.
Defending the slime hutch. If you manage to get a purple slime egg. You have a safe source of iridium
Maybe I’m being extra but I like to have my silo in an open area so I can build four fields around it and make it look like a cool little upside down flower
The fish pond was good for me after that one event that lasts like a week
If you are into animals remember you can load up barns with kegs or pots or whatever too!
Lummi! Big fan and just wondering, what do you think of Leah? (Favorite villager)
Oh I know the answer to this one, Lummi likes Leah but only bc she's a discount Robin lmao
@@lilyawoodburnso true
Tired: using fish ponds for money
Wired: using sea cucumber fish ponds to make Lucky Lunches for niche rare item huntung. (Also the Midnight Squid (for the most ink)+Midnight Carp+Flounder combo for Seafoam Pudding)
now, im not saying its insanely profitable, BUT
The super cucumber fish pond gives you passive iridium, im not passing that up, i dont like minmaxing the caverns
Everybody needs something silly on their farm .
Thank you I needed this
i need this as a series i don’t know how to layout my hilltop farm😭
I put my slim incubators in town so they talk to the villagers.
Slime hutch allows you to get slime eggs, which can sell for more than prismatic shards (tiger slime)
Fish ponds with lava eels can get you aged lava eel roe, selling for over 1,000 gold each. Fish ponds with blowfish can get you pearls. Ponds with rainbow trout (or something like that) can get you prismatic shards.
Mill is useless.
Animals tend to be more profitable than plants, too.
My layout is silo, coop, and barn far left in front of gpas tomb, crops in front of house. First year my chests and makers go right next to house by dogs water bowl
Thank you Lummi 😎
I have fish ponds to help me get geodes and special items. I'll probably destroy them once I get the museum finished
Lummi you have GOT to make a video giving us your mods. The grass is TOO CUTE
me in year 4, crying bc i neglected fish ponds and now i need caviar for the missing bundle:
I try to balance my farm on Profits and Aesthetics.
doesn't have to be the most profitable farm, it just has to look pretty while making me rich + a way to satiate my hoarding
Personally I don't mind taking a bit of my summer and fall to grow 50 wheat over and over, makes making food for gifts and health items much easier than buying it from Pierre.
My ADHD and OCD brain decided 4 corners is the way to go, top right is my house and pretty stuff, top left is farming, bottom left is animals and fish ponds, bottom right is artisinal goods
