The Snow Yam is a foraging item found only in Winter. Wild snow yams do not grow above ground, but instead they are buried in the snow/dirt and must be dug up with a Hoe (no other tools, even Bombs, will work).
The highest chance of finding a Snow Yam (11-16%, map-dependent) is when digging up an Artifact Spot.[1] There is also a 4% chance of finding a Snow Yam when digging standard tillable soil in any exterior location.[2] Exceptions are in the Desert, where Snow Yams can be found in standard tillable soil but not artifact spots, and the Farm, where the reverse is true: Snow Yams can be found at artifact spots, but not standard tillable soil. Digging up a Snow Yam provides no experience.
Snow Yams can also be grown from Winter Seeds, in which case they are a standard wild-seed crop: they grow above ground, can be harvested without using a tool, and give 7 Foraging XP.

References
- ↑ The chance of appearing in an artifact spot is calculated by GameLocation::digUpArtifactSpot. The base chance in code is 20% (0.5*0.4), but the actual chance is lower because artifacts and lost books are checked first and must all fail their checks.
- ↑ The chance of appearing in standard tillable soil is calculated by GameLocation::checkForBuriedItem.
