Autumn is the most powerful season for Collection in Stardew Valley since it is the season in which we can collect, in general, Collection objects that have great value; at least if we compare them with those of the other stations, of course. Although it is also true that Winter can surprise you a lot if you know certain information, but we will see it later.
The most notable thing about the station is that we can find a wide variety of Mushrooms with a decent selling value, especially if you visit the Secret Forest (you know, the entrance is north and left from the Tower of Rasmodius, but you need yes or Yes, at least a Steel Ax to enter there), an area that I recommend that you visit from time to time during this season (especially when you have a free space and are not busy with other things that generally require More attention).
We also have the Blackberry season, which we could consider as the improved version of Raspberries. In case you don’t remember, in Spring there are some days when the bushes are filled with Raspberries, because in Autumn the same thing will happen with the Blackberries and these have a higher sales value than their friends the Raspberries.
But hey… this is just a summary, let’s go through each of the objects in depth!
HAZELNUT
The Hazelnut is one of the most common objects that we will find, there is little to highlight about it beyond the enormous size of the Stardew Valley Hazelnuts and it is true that for being so common it does not have a bad selling price.
Of course, starting on the 14th of Autumn I recommend that you shake the Maples that you find since they will have the probability of dropping you a free Hazelnut.
Hazelnut Price:
