Valheim Farming Guide – How to Farm
Craft a Cultivator
A cultivator needs to be created before even attempting to plant anything to start a farm. To get the cultivator recipe, you’ll need to collect core wood first. This can be done by chopping down pine trees with a bronze axe.
The cultivator can be crafted using x10 core wood and x5 bronze. Once it’s crafted, Valheim’s farming system opens up quite a bit. The cultivator can be used to till the soil so that seeds can be planted.
Be sure to leave some space in between rows of seeds because they need a bit of room to grow.
Planting Seeds
Valheim currently contains five kinds of seeds to choose from for farming. Here’s where to find them all:
Once you’ve found the seeds that you want, simply plant them in the tilled soil. Barley and Flax can also be farmed, but they don’t require the use of seeds. The two crops can be found in the Plains.
