Best Fall Crops In Stardew Valley

As a seasoned Stardew Valley farmer with countless hours under my belt, I can confidently say that fall is the time to reap the most rewarding crops. Cranberries, grapes, artichokes, and pumpkins are the golden tickets of this season, offering the highest profit margins.


In Stardew Valley, cultivating different crops season after season can be an excellent method for earning substantial income. Yet, it’s crucial to focus on high-yield crops if your aim is to maximize profits. While both spring and summer offer profitable options, fall also presents a mix of valuable and less profitable crops.

Best Fall Crops In Stardew Valley

In autumn, some of the most lucrative crops to cultivate include cranberries, pumpkins, grapes, and artichokes. However, artichoke seeds aren’t ready for harvest until the second year, and grapevines are grown on trellises, making them slightly more challenging options. The Sweet Gem Berries yield the highest profit, but their seeds can only be purchased individually at the Traveling Cart, so you would need to grow and collect these berries consistently over several in-game years to accumulate enough for a full field.

To get the Greenhouse unlocked by finishing the community center bundles, consider cultivating less profitable crops such as corn early in summer since it consistently grows, but it’s primarily valuable to grow it at the start of the season.

opting for cranberries is convenient because their plants yield fruit throughout the entire growing season, eliminating the need for replanting; on the other hand, pumpkins offer high returns, but you can only reap two harvests in a single season, which might not be ideal if you prefer more spread-out paydays.
