| Six boxes will be added to the cave where certain types of [[Foraging|mushrooms]] will randomly grow. Five different types will appear, including all four that are required to craft the [[Life Elixir]]. Even though [[Common Mushroom]]s, [[Morel]]s, and [[Chanterelle]]s are the ones that most commonly appear, this is still the best way to craft the elixir as often as possible. This makes the Mushroom option a great one for those who love to go into [[The Mines]], especially since most mushrooms can be hard to find otherwise. This is also a good choice for players that have grown, or plan to grow, fruit trees and do not need the extra [[Fruits|fruit]] provided by the fruit bats. After the [[Seed Maker]] recipe is unlocked, the Common Mushrooms can also be processed into [[Fall Seeds]], and then crafted into [[Tea Sapling]]s to either plant or sell. | | Six boxes will be added to the cave where certain types of [[Foraging|mushrooms]] will randomly grow.
