In Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, managing your farm involves planting and caring for various crops across different seasons. These crops are not only a key source of income but also serve as ingredients for recipes and various uses around your farm.
What crops are available, and how do you find them?
Crops are categorized by seasons, so planning ahead is essential. Save your gold to buy high-quality seeds, and you’ll want to know what you can grow each season.
How to Grow Crops
To plant crops, start by using your hoe from the toolbar to till the soil. Select the seed bag of your choice and plant the seeds in each plot. Water your crops daily—once in the morning and once at night—to help them grow faster. When the crops are ready, interact with them to harvest. Some crops, like trees and tomatoes, will regrow every few days during their optimal season, allowing multiple harvests in a month.
Pro tip: Jumping or double jumping can extend your range when tilling, sowing, watering, and harvesting!
Every crop needs basic care, but the difference is that crops take up a single plot, whereas a tree occupies nine plots. You can dig up trees and store them to replant when the season changes.
All crops have a rare variant, slightly different in appearance and generally worth more. These variants can be sold at market for a better profit but function the same as the regular versions, so using them in recipes isn’t necessary.
Shelf Life and Crop Management
Crop freshness is limited. Once harvested, crops begin to decay, so aim to use or sell them before they rot. Upgrading tools like your hoe, watering can, and sickle can save you time and energy every day. You can buy better techniques from Felix at the bazaar to speed up your farming process as your farm expands.

Increasing Crop Quality
To boost the star quality of your crops, regularly use fertilizer on your plants. Fertilizer can be crafted at windmills using weeds or rotten crops—materials that are easy to gather.
Additional tip: Donate forageables to the Nature Sprites to improve fertilizer quality.
You can also upgrade your soil at the bazaar, ensuring consistently higher crop quality without extra fertilizer, though fertilizer still helps.
High-quality crops can be taken to the blue windmill to convert into seeds of the same quality—useful for saving seeds for future seasons or planting more.
Expanding Your Farm
If you want to grow more, Wilbur at the bazaar can expand your fields. You can add two more fields on your farm and another one in your cellar, functioning as a greenhouse. Each field provides 54 plots, letting you grow over 200 crops at once when fully optimized.
