Grow and sell crops

The main activity you’ll be partaking in during this farming simulator is, well, farming. You’ll start the game with some free crops, but after that, you’ll need to purchase them yourself. It’s not just about growing a crop, but making sure it grows well. Water your crops everyday, you can tell how dry it is by the soil color. Also, you can feed them Fertilizer every day, which will make them grow even nicer.

During your first year, you probably won’t know for sure which crops earn you the most gold. So try experimenting with every crop to see which one is most lucrative. While they’re more expensive than normal crops, planting Fruit trees will net you some hefty Gold. They take longer to grow, but they’re worth it in the end.

Sell animal products

Not only can you sell crops, but animal products as well. Takakura will offer you a cow for free, who is already ready for producing Milk. Once you have enough money, you can purchase other animals, but for now, focus on keeping the animals you have happy.

If your animals aren’t happy and taken care of, they won’t produce sellable products. If you want to know how to best care for your Cows, check out the news channel on your TV. It focuses on how to keep your Cows happy, and will give helpful tips like snuggling them, and letting them outside daily.

At first, you’ll probably just be selling Milk to get by. But eventually you’ll unlock things like the Processing Room, which can process Milk into Cheese or Butter. Selling those types of items will reward you with more Gold than if you just sold Milk on its own.

Visit Van’s store

Sadly, Van only shows up twice a season, but when he does, make sure you have stuff to sell. Usually, you can sell animal products or crops through the Shipping Bin. The annoying thing about this method is the fact that you won’t get your Gold right away.

Instead, you can sell things to Van to make money right on the spot. What’s even better is that he’ll buy things from you that you can’t put in your Shipping Bin. If you’ve caught fish, found relics at the dig site, or pulled flowers they can go right to Van. Some of the best ways to earn money in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life is just by selling anything else you have in your inventory.

Sometimes, they’ll say eating a meal before bed helps, which will in turn raise your luck during activities such as fishing.

Speaking of fishing, have you ever spotted wild animals around Forgotten Valley? If you spot any of these creatures, like the Tanuki or the Turtle, that means there’s a certain lucky fishing spot. Prioritize fishing when you’re most lucky to get the most money.
