🌳 Explore unknown territories

Venture beyond the familiar borders of Stardew Valley's forests to the hidden Ferngil Forest - a pristine and unexplored corner of the Ferngil Republic. In a secluded clearing, a long-forgotten station is mysteriously resurrected by a mysterious figure... Secrets that have been dormant for decades are waiting for you to discover. Dare to explore?

🚂 Features

  • **Seasonal Gathering Area**: a unique gathering/mining area accessible via the Central Station rail network
  • **DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT**: Gathering plants changes with the seasons, but summer fish are available year-round from mysteriously heated ponds
  • **Hidden Area**: After upgrading your ax and pickaxe, you can enter the sewer area
  • **Mystery Mechanic**: The three pillars in the forest use a custom tile attribute DLL based on the Galaxy Sword trigger
  • **Mysterious Merchant**: A mysterious figure sits at a nearby picnic table all day, selling a selection of mushrooms year-round

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
