SoS: FoMT Harvest Goddess Gifts Guide + Marriage Requirements

by Kal S.

The Harvest Goddess is a mythical marriage candidate that lives at the waterfall near the Hot Spring. Her birthday is on Spring 8th. If you set your farmer’s birthday on the same day, her birthday will be on Spring 9th instead.

She’s one of the hardest characters to marry in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town is the Harvest Goddess, so be prepared!

Granted, she’s easy to please, but has very specific requirements for marriage.

Schedule

The Harvest Goddess stays in one location at her waterfall year-round, even in Winter.

Fortunately, her lake will not freeze over during Winter. So you can visit her anytime you like!

At certain times you might be able to catch the other villagers paying her a visit.

Gift Preferences

Harvest Goddess’s response when the farmer gives her a loved gift.

The Harvest Goddess loves to receive flowers, seasonal crops, and animal products – so basically, anything straight from your farm or forage is a good bet.

It’s quite easy to obtain the things that she likes, but she does feel indifferent towards a lot of gifts you may try to give her. To be safe, just offer whatever flower happens to be growing in the area around her lake!

Marriage Requirements

The Harvest Goddess is a special marriage candidate, meaning she doesn’t have the regular heart events that the normal bachelors and bachelorettes have.

But you can directly propose to her after you’ve completed all of her marriage requirements! Just drop a Blue Feather into her lake as if you’re offering a gift, and you’ll be able to get married from there.
