Stardew Valley features some interesting seasonal events that make the valley a unique landscape. The Green Rain event is popular among such events due to its unpredictable nature. This event coats the valley with a greenish glow, affecting everything from vegetation to villagers' daily routines.
Green Rain transforms the valley's appearance and offers a unique opportunity to engage with villagers and the environment. This guide covers everything you need to know about Green Rain, including how to make the most of its resources.
What is the Green Rain Event?
The Green Rain event in Stardew Valley is a rare summer phenomenon that radically transforms the valley’s atmosphere. When Green Rain arrives, a greenish tint covers the landscape, giving trees, plants, and even building interiors a unique emerald glow.
Green Rain event begins with an unusual weather report that indicates something different is happening. The next day, when you go outside, you will find a lot of moss-covered trees and vines, and there will be an increase in wild vegetation across Pelican Town.
During Green Rain, daily routines in Stardew Valley take an unusual turn. Some electronic devices, like TVs, display green static, and jukeboxes go silent. The eerie weather also unsettles villagers, who stay indoors or gather at the Stardrop Saloon. Demetrius, donning a hazmat suit, ventures outside to collect samples, while Linus seems unfazed by the odd atmosphere and carries on as usual.
When Does Green Rain Happen?
Due to the brief and unpredictable nature of Green Rain, one cannot control when this event occurs. Items like the Rain Totem cannot trigger it. Instead, the event happens randomly during the summer, and you will receive a weather forecast with an unusual report a day before.
What to do During the Green Rain Event?
Green Rain brings many specific resources you can only gather on this day. Since Green Rain only lasts a single day, you can consider collecting resources and increasing your friendship with villagers gathered at the saloon.
Collect Resources During Green Rain
You will find many moss-covered trees and large vines of Fiddlehead Ferns throughout the valley. You can use your axe or scythe to harvest moss from trees, which yields about two pieces per tree. This moss is valuable and can be used to craft unique items. On the other hand, Fiddlehead Ferns appear in large clusters, each offering multiple ferns.
Increase Friendship with Villagers
With most villagers gathered at the Stardrop Saloon during Green Rain, it’s an ideal chance to boost friendship levels. Aside from Demetrius and Linus, nearly everyone will remain indoors, allowing you to interact with multiple villagers in one spot. This saves time as you won’t need to search for them throughout the valley, making socializing and strengthening bonds easier.
