Moss is a new one Stardew Valley crafting material item that you can harvest from trees, added in patch 1.6. You can use moss in a handful of craft recipes, but finding them can be tricky.
We explain it below where you can find moss Stardew Valley and in which craft recipes you can use it.
Where can you find moss in Stardew Valley?
Some of the trees If you cut it, moss will grow on it. During the massive deforestation around the valley we found a few moss in the spring, but not a huge amount. The moss can be cut from the tree with a sword, without necessarily cutting down the tree too.
The mossy trees have, well, green moss all over their trunks, like this:

That said, according to the Stardew Valley Wikithere is a new weather condition, green rainthat produces moss on trees and weeds.
Recipes for making moss in Stardew Valley
Moss sells for five gold each, so it’s not really worth selling unless you have a lot of surplus.
There are a number of craft recipes that require moss:
- Speed-Gro Fertilizer: 1 Pine Tar, 5 Moss
- Mushroom Log: 10 Hardwood, 10 Moss
- Statue of Blessings: 999 Stone, 999 Fiber, 999 Sap, 333 Moss
- Deluxe Worm Bin: 1 Worm Bin, 30 Moss
You can also use it to make moss soup, if you have a kitchen. This recipe uses 20 moss.
While the recipe for the Statue of Blessings is available (thanks to datamines), we’re not entirely sure how to use it or how to actually get the recipe for it. If you cheat in the statue, you can’t actually use it, so it’s probably locked behind some endgame story progression. According to the game’s item description, “touching the statue each day grants a unique blessing,” so it’s probably worth saving your moss for.
