Winter is the fourth season players play through. It's followed by [[spring]] and preceded by [[fall]].
'''Winter''' is the fourth [[Seasons|season]] in [[Stardew Valley]]. It is followed by [[Spring]] and preceded by [[Fall]].
Winter is unique amongst the seasons in that no outdoors [[Crops]] apart from [[Powdermelon Seeds]], [[Winter Seeds]] and [[Fiber Seeds]] will grow, and all [[Weeds]] and most tilled soil (including all fertilizer, even if the tile remains tilled) will all be removed at the start of the season. [[Grass]] remains but does not spread. [[Bee House]]s will also not produce [[honey]] during winter. Finally, standard [[trees]], including those planted on the farm (except fruit trees) do not grow in winter unless [[Tree Fertilizer]] is applied.
Overall, with plant growth stopped, Winter can become a challenging season for farmers, leaving only [[Animals|animal]] produce and the [[Greenhouse]] as the mainstay of farm produce. However, the reduced intensity of farming makes it an excellent season for other activities, including [[foraging]], [[The Mines]]/[[Skull Cavern]] exploration, [[fishing]], digging at [[Artifact Spot|artifact spots]], and gift-giving - with nine birthdays, Winter is tied with [[Summer]] for most birthdays in a season. It also makes it easier to obtain [[The Farm|Farm]] and [[Tools|Tool]] upgrades without impacting normal routines.
Animals require additional care during this season, as they cannot go outside due to the cold. Providing them with a [[Heater]] will also make them happier. Additionally, due to the lack of grass and weeds, [[Fiber]] and [[Hay]] are more difficult to obtain outdoors. However fiber still can be found in [[the Mines]] and [[Mutant Bug Lair]], or alternatively grown with [[Fiber Seeds]]. Hay can be purchased from [[Marnie's Ranch]], or randomly gifted from [[Marnie|her]] in the mail. It can also be obtained as a byproduct of [[Wheat]] grown in the [[Greenhouse]].
There are several winter events and [[festivals]] which give the player unique opportunities to acquire items. One takes place early in the month and one takes place towards the end, marking the end of the year in the Valley. Additional [[SquidFest]] and [[Night Market]] activities occur halfway through the season.
