In *Fields of Mistria*, expanding your farm is a crucial step to accommodate more crops and animals. The farm expansion feature, introduced in the v0.13.0 update, allows you to significantly increase your farm's space by extending it across the river to the right, offering a new area for additional structures and crop fields.
How to Unlock Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria
To unlock the farm expansion, head over to the **Carpenter’s Shop** located in the Eastern Road area. You can purchase this expansion as early as your first year in town, but there are significant prerequisites you must meet first.
To be eligible, you need to help the town achieve **Rank 55** by accumulating enough Renown points. Additionally, you must complete the Stone Refinery repair quest, which also requires Town Rank 55, ensuring that your progress in both areas is interconnected.
Once these initial requirements are met, you'll need to gather a substantial list of materials for the expansion. Be prepared for a significant investment of time and effort.
How to Build Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria
Visit the Carpenter’s Shop on the Eastern Road, northeast of Mistria’s town center. From the main menu, select ‘Farm Expansion’ to view the requirements for this upgrade.
The first requirement is **40,000 Tesserae**, a hefty sum that will require diligent effort in gathering, farming, and completing quests. Make the most of your time by frequenting the Mines, fishing, and contributing new items to the Museum.
Next, you'll need **50 x Refined Stone**, which you can only obtain after repairing the **Stone Refinery**. This repair, in turn, is only possible after reaching Town Rank 55 and repairing the Inn beforehand.
Lastly, you'll need **50 x Hard Wood**, the easiest material to gather. Once you have a **Copper Axe**, you can chop **large tree stumps** around your farm and beyond, each yielding 2 x Hard Wood. You can also acquire this material from **Balor’s Cart** on specific days or by turning in items to the Museum.
With all materials and the required funds in hand, return to the Carpenter’s Shop and purchase the expansion. This will extend your farm eastward across the river, complete with a new bridge for easy access.
