A Scarecrow is a craftable item in Stardew Valley. It prevents crows from eating crops. Scarecrows can be crafted at Farming level 1.

Range

A Scarecrow will protect the surrounding circular area of 248 spaces; 8 spaces each to the north, east, south, and west, as well as 6 spaces each to the northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest. In other words, it protects a 17x17 area, excluding 10 spaces in each corner.

Rarecrows

Rarecrows can be found at certain events and after completing certain objectives. The looks are purely cosmetic, as functionally they work the same as regular Scarecrows, for all except the Alien Scarecrow, which you can place hats on.

Note: Rarecrow #1 is a reference to the character Turnip Head from Hayao Miyazaki's "Howl's Moving Castle."
