[Horoホロ]

Yoo guys, im just new player, idk what should i do for my first fall and winter, can u give me some suggestion to make a some money, and grow my farm to be success

It all depends on what you like to do, and how you define success.

Cranberries are probably the highest moneymaking crop if you want to just grow and sell them unprocessed. I like to grow pumpkins and put them in preserves jars for a big hit of money.

Early in the season it can be great to plant a bunch of tree seeds and let them grow all fall without chopping the trees. If you're lucky, one of them might turn into a mushroom tree, which you can put a tapper on to get valuable fresh mushrooms from every day!

If you have animals and a silo, be sure to scythe all your hay before winter hits because all the grass and weeds on the farm will disappear on the first day of Winter.

Winter is great for redesigning your farm, laying out new pathways or sprinkler placement etc. No crops will grow in winter besides the wild forage you can make into seed packets. I highly recommend you do that, as it will raise your forage skill a lot. With each harvest you would just remake seed packets out of each crop. Towards the end of winter you would take your last harvest and sell the seed packets, as they are generally more valuable than selling the wild crops themselves unless those are iridium quality.

The other great thing to do with wild seed packets though is to turn them into tea saplings, and sell the saplings themselves rather than plant them. Tea saplings are worth $500 each, so this is a very lucrative technique! To get the recipe for tea saplings, you need to reach 2 hearts of friendship with Caroline, then visit her in her greenhouse on a sunny day.

Other than that, mining and fishing are always worthwhile.

Winter is the time to catch up on mining/upgrading your tools. The winter forageables can be planted like regular crops so once youve finished the forage bundle you can keep growing them with the seeds you get as a reward, it's a nice cash boost.

Plant Fairy Rose with speed-gro fertilizer and put beehive near it.
Plant Pumpkin with 3x3 slot for a chance it become a Giant Pumpkin.
Throw Pumpkin, Yam, Amaranth to Preserve Jar or Keg.
Throw Wheat to Keg.
Plant Rare Seeds with Deluxe Fertilizer.
If u want only to sell raw crops, plant it with Fertilizer. Sap is easy to obtain by chopping trees.

People above already told u how to make money during winter. My favorite fishing spot at Mountain Lake to make some money. But to be honest, winter is the great time to spent money to NPC than making money. Upgrade tools, building something new on the farm, buy some pigs.

But still it depend on what u choose to gain your income, if u want make money from kegs, then u need to gathering copper and iron ores, put many tappers on Oak Tree, and plant any tree seeds with Tree Fertilizer (from Foraging Skills) or buy it from Robin.

Note: Wood & Stone from Robin + Ores and Coal from Clint shop are super cheap in 1st year

In Fall, the best fishing is Cindersnap Forest during rainy days. Fish the river until 10pm, then switch to the pond. This is probably the most profitable fishing all year.

A great trick for tea saplings/wild seeds at this point is to use a seed maker with "common mushroom". They give wild fall seeds for the tea saplings, and otherwise have no use.

Planting grapes in fall, while not great for money, gives a TON of farming EXP points. This can be useful if you do not have access to kegs yet (lvl8). Nothing in fall is super profitable, so its not a big loss, and having kegs by 2nd year is really good. Cranberries are a good middle ground here between profit and EXP, but require a much larger up front cost.

Winter is for mining. Fishing is okay but stay away from the ocean, unless foraging for shells. Squids are tough to catch and do not sell well. If you managed to get some kegs the "crystal fruit" from winter wild seeds makes decent wine.

for some quick cash, if you have upgraded your hoe, go digging on the beach for winter foraging items and mud. Sell the mud to Robin, and the forage to Pierre.
