The Meadowlands farm, introduced in Stardew Valley’s latest 1.6 update, is an animal focused farm, making it a dream come true for every aspiring rancher. While it offers less space for growing crops, it provides some nice bonuses from the start. You can now begin your farming adventure with a small Coop and 2 Chickens. Instead of Turnip seeds, you receive 15 Hay.

The new farm layout might surprise you with its size. While 3 ponds, a flowing river, and some elevated areas at the top take up the space, it makes up for it with a very cool feature – Blue Grass.

The new Blue Grass raise the heart levels of your livestock twice as quickly, resulting in a faster production of high-quality items. It grows naturally on Meadowlands Farm but there’s another method to acquire it. Blue Grass Starter Recipe can be purchased at Qi’s Walnut Room on the Ginger Island. Once planted, Blue Grass, much like the regular type, will gradually expand to adjacent tiles across the farm.

To get Blue Syrup for Blue Grass Starter you need to unlock new types of tree seeds, available after mastering Foraging skill. Placing a Tapper on these trees allows you to extract Blue Syrup from them.
