The Junimo Hut is a type of building purchasable from the Wizard at the Wizard's Tower after returning his magic ink. The hut allows Junimos to live on the player's farm and come out to harvest any fully grown crops that are nearby. The leaves outside it change based on the season.

Behaviour

When placed the hut will have Junimos gather crops (including flowers) in the area around it when they're ready for harvest. Players can collect crops from the hut whenever they'd like.

Junimos will not collect crops in the rain, nor will they collect crops grown from Wild Seeds.

They gather in a 17x17 square: 7 spaces away horizontally (left and right), 8 spaces away below and 7 spaces away above. Each hut will let out three Junimos who will harvest crops by picking them one at a time until all nearby crops are harvested, at which point they will return to their hut and leave the crops in a bag outside for the player to collect.

Junimos continue to gather while you're not at the farm, however if you end the day before they finish gathering then the remaining crops within the vicinity of the hut are not automatically retrieved.

If crops with trellises (i.e. green beans, hops, grapes) are planted in a 24-tile pattern surrounding a an iridium sprinkler, Junimos will harvest all crops, regardless of whether or not the player themselves can reach it. However, make sure that you can access the hut with a pathway before surrounding the Junimo hut with these crops.

The entrance to the hut cannot be obstructed, or the Junimos will sometimes be unable to collect crops.
