Well now, let’s gab a bit ’bout this here Stardew Valley barn, ya hear? Folks keep askin’ ‘bout it, so I figured I’d spill the beans, the way I see it. Don’t expect no fancy talk, just plain ol’ common sense, like grandma used to say.
First off, ya gotta build the barn. Can’t have no animals without a roof over their heads, now can ya? That gal Robin over at the Carpenter’s Shop, she’s the one you gotta talk to. Gonna cost ya some gold, and she takes her sweet time buildin’ it – three whole days! And don’t go botherin’ her none durin’ that time, she ain’t got time for chit-chat.
So, you got your barn, what now? Well, it ain’t no good empty, is it? You gotta fill it with critters! Cows, goats… they all need a place to stay. And let me tell ya, them animals ain’t cheap neither. Gotta save up yer pennies if you wanna have a proper farm.
- Cows are good for milk.
- Goats give ya goat milk, a bit fancier like.
- And there’s other critters too, but I ain’t gonna spoil all the fun.
Now, some folks are always in a hurry, wantin’ everything right this minute. But hold your horses, I say. Take your time. Some say gettin’ yer barn and coop upgrades around the 10th of summer is a good idea. Makes sense, I guess. Gives ya time to settle in, get yer crops growin’ before ya start worryin’ ’bout them animals. You need to see Robin four times for all them upgrades: first the coop, then the barn, then upgradin’ them both once, then upgradin’ them again. She’s a busy gal.
But what about upgradin’ the barn itself? Well, that’s a whole ‘nother story. Robin can do that too, but it takes another two days, and more gold, of course. Is it worth it? That depends, don’t it? If you wanna make some serious money, building a barn is a better investment than just about anything else. More animals means more milk, more cheese, more everything! And let’s not forget, it gives ya a good source of food too. Keeps ya strong and healthy, so ya can keep workin’ on that farm.
Some folks are all about gettin’ that big house upgrade. Says it helps ya get married and all that. Well, that’s fine and dandy, but it ain’t gonna put no food on the table, now is it? You can get married later, I say. Focus on that barn first. Get them animals settled, then you can worry about findin’ a husband or wife. First things first, that’s what I always say.
And speakin’ of upgrades, that first house upgrade, the one with the kitchen? That ain’t a bad idea, I reckon. Cookin’ yer own food saves ya money, and it’s healthier too. But them other upgrades? The one for the kids and the cellar? Eh, you can wait on them. They ain’t necessary right away. You need that cellar for makin’ fancy drinks, but that’s way down the line, don’t worry ‘bout it now.
Some folks are all worried about space on their farm, thinkin’ they ain’t got room for everything. But don’t you fret none. That barn upgrade? It don’t take up no extra space. Just makes the one you already got bigger, so you can fit in more animals. And believe you me, some folks fill their whole farm with coops and barns. If they can do it, so can you.
So, there you have it. A whole lotta fuss ’bout a Stardew Valley barn. But it’s important, ya see? It’s the heart of your farm, the place where you make your money, and the place where you keep them critters happy and healthy. And happy critters mean a happy farmer, and that’s the most important thing of all. Now, get out there and start buildin’! But remember, you gotta build the barn first, no gettin’ around that.
And don’t forget, takin’ care of animals is hard work. Gotta feed ’em every day, gotta clean up after ’em, gotta make sure they ain’t gettin’ sick. But it’s worth it in the end, when you see them cows producin’ good milk and them goats jumpin’ around, happy as can be. It’s a good life, farmin’ is, even if it ain’t always easy. And having a good, big barn is a big part of that.
