When it comes to Penny I just plant a metric fuckload of poppies and by the end of the season I have a steady supply of the good good to keep her happy.

I love this guide! There are a few things I would personally rank as easier, but this definitely covers a bunch of great options.

A few suggestions:

• Vincent loves grapes, which imo are simpler to get than pink cakes (and a repeating crop)

• Robin loves spaghetti, which can always be bought at the Saloon

• Haley loves sunflowers, which imo are simpler to get than pink cakes, especially because they grow over two seasons

• Chocolate cake is on the simpler side of recipes, and is loved by Jodi, Evelyn, and Abigail. As long as you have a chicken and the recipe, you can buy the sugar and flour. This one is definitely the most arguable—I find crystalariums are hard to get before Y3 since they require iridium, plus the diamond regrow time is fairly long.

This guide does make it clear who the real picky ones are! Alex and Pierre imo are the hardest to get loved gifts for, and they have the most complicated diagrams here.

How to get a daffodil:

Step 1: Aquire a daffodil.

Step 2: Use daffodil to create seeds.

Step 3: Plant seeds.

Step 4: Harvest a daffodil.

I keep rabbits in a coop. Since I take good care of them, they drop Rabbits Foot somewhat regularly. All villagers love them except Haley; however, she loves coconuts, so a quick visit to the desert to forage will stock you up for a while.

Of course, if you don't have the bus or rabbits unlocked, it can be a hassle. Visit the saloon regularly to see the special meal that Gus is selling each day, and buy a few each time. This is especially useful for ones that require out-of-season ingredients or that you don't have recipes for.

I'm assuming the Golden Pumpkin, Pearl, Prismatic Shard, and Rabbit's Foot are banned items for this problem. There's multiple correct solutions. Here's a way to do it with 17 items:

1. Hot Pepper
2. Cactus Fruit
3. Diamond
4. Amethyst
5. Void Egg
6. Wine
7. Tom Kha Soup
8. Strawberry
9. Pink Cake
10. Goat Cheese
11. Fiddlehead Risotto
12. Fish Taco
13. Fried Calamari

(Favorites for 14. Wizard, 15. Sandy, 16. George, and 17. Alex are excluded from the above list since none of their loved items are shared by any other villager. Aka, pick whichever loved items from each of these four villagers that you want.)

If diamonds are too pricey, here's a way to do it without the diamonds using 18 items:

1. Mead
2. Hot Pepper
3. Cactus Fruit
4. Chocolate Cake
5. Amethyst
6. Void Egg
7. Wine
8. Tom Kha Soup
9. Strawberry
10. Pink Cake
11. Goat Cheese
12. Fiddlehead Risotto
13. Fish Taco
14. Fried Calamari
15. Wizard
16. Sandy
17. George
18. Alex

Chocolate Cake, Diamonds, and Daffodils cover most of them.

or you could just use universal likes but that’s an expensive way to go

DISHONOR. Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow

You do realize you don't need to have them at 10 hearts for it to count as maximum friendship? As long as you are married and have 14 hearts with your spouse (or Krobus if you go that route) then you don't need more than 8 hearts, and it also doesn't decay.

The Pelican Town polycule grows stronger every day.

I knew Penny is freaky but not this level of freaky. Girl wants threesome.

I wish a biblical plague upon your farm.

just a heads up, i’m pretty sure Jas is the only one who actually hate’s ‘rabbit foot’ :) this guide is so awesome tho! i always find myself referring to the wiki like 10000 times during that challenge

Oh!! Also, anything that’s a cooked item has a drop-down menu where you can see the ingredients it needs!

For me, what I typically do is:

• Alex: Rabbit Foot
• Elliot: Duck Feather
• Harvey: Coffee*
• Sam: Pizza*
• Caroline: Summer Spangle/Green Tea
• Clint: Amethyst or Emerald (depending on who I want to marry)
• Dwarf: Any gems I find
• Sebastian: Frozen Tear or Void Egg
• Shane: Beer*
• Abigail: Amethyst or Pumpkin
• Emily: Cloth
• Evelyn: Chocolate Cake
• George: Leek or Fried Mushroom
• Gus: Orange
• Jas: Pink Cake
• Jodie: Chocolate Cake
• Kent: Roasted Hazelnuts
• Krobus: Void Egg
• Leo: Duck Feather
• Robin: Spaghetti*
• Sandy: Any wild flower except Dandelion
• Vincent: Plum Pudding, Snail or Cranberry Candy
• Willy: Pumpkin or Sea Cucumber
• Lewis: Pepper
• Linus: Cactus Fruit
• Pam: Beer*
• Pierre: Rabbit Foot or Calamari
• Haley: Coconut
• Leah: Truffle or Goat Cheese
• Maru: Battery
• Penny: Emerald or Sandfish
• Marnie: Pink Cake
• Wizard: Void Essence or Solar Essence

The ones with a * can always be bought from Gus at the Saloon, so once you have decent cash flow, it's easy

My go to for Penny is melons! I’m definitely using this going forward

Abigail loves pumpkins too

I like it! Maybe make it one tall image so you could keep it up on your phone while playing.

Eggs?

As in 'Can I offer you a nice egg in this trying time?'

In my last run, I ended up with a lot of pale ale and beer which I didn't know what to do with, so now I just have a large stack to hand out at random people when I run into them. Most of the Stardew Valley villagers like free beer, I'm at six hearts with most of them now. Sebastian gets upset and hides in his basement.

When I first started, I picked up some driftwood off the ground and was carrying it around and came across Leah, and I accidentally gave her it when I was just trying to talk to her. I was expecting her to hate it, but nope, she loved it. Just some random wood off the ground, lol.

I loved her for this because it was reminiscent of one of my favorite HM games (MFoMT), where one of the bachelors likes branches off the ground. Every day I’d grab one and think, “can’t forget to bring my big dummy boyfriend his daily stick”

I'm playing a modded game. Stardew Expanded makes Morris a giftable NPC.

Lewis asks me if I have any blueberries. I give them to him and they aren’t “loved” gifts. I’m disappointed I put any effort into finding that damn geezer

Milk was at least changed to a neutral gift in 1.6

he's a proper NPC that you can befriend in the stardew valley expanded mod! in vanilla, you've pretty much seen everything morris has to offer lol.

For a guy who wastes my time reciting an ode to cave carrots every time I need bombs, you’d think they’d be one of his loved gifts.

This one was super upsetting for me because I thought I’d given her Amethyst and was so confused when she said she hated it 😭

I usually have one of the mods that change his loved gifts from beer to Joja Cola after his six hearts event. So I kinda always forget that that's not vanilla haha

Oh, probably, and it makes sense she likes it since she's a forager too, I was just surprised because iirc the game classifies driftwood as trash, so I wasn't expecting anyone to actually like it as a gift.

This is missing the two most important details.

1. Shane brings a genesis

2. Abigail brings a SNES

Thanks so much for this friend! Hard work appreciated!

Why do they have such strong opinions about rocks? 'Hates quartz'

Minor edit: for sandy daffodil is listed as both a like and a love; it is a love

Very good improvements!

I want to sooo bad, but I’m ab to divorce her

That's such a great idea!

Love what you did with the power books, definitely stealing that idea

So sweet 😭 get her a mermaid pendant asap

Yall love at first sight Def spend that 5000g

Please tell her that her nails are looking so amazing omv. Also the way she delivered the message is adorable treasure her she is amazing
