How To Get Truffles In Stardew Valley

Truffles in Stardew Valley are a special animal product that requires you to have pigs, although it’s a bit more complicated than other animal products. They also don’t actually count as animal products, instead existing as a foraged mushroom, despite requiring a pig to get them. If you want to start collecting these valuable items, you’re going to have to do a bit of work to set your pigs up for success.

How to get Truffles

Pigs can find truffles on your farm every season except winter, so long as the requirements are met. Pigs cost 16,000G from Marnie’s Ranch and you must have a deluxe barn for them to live in.

The requirements for a pig to find truffles are:

Pig is fedPig has been let out of the barnIt’s not raining or stormyIt’s not winterThere are empty tiles for truffles to be place on

The way it works is that as a pig explores the outside area, it has a chance to spawn a truffle whenever it stands on an empty tile on the ground. You can restrict a pig’s movement by putting fences around the barn. Doing this won’t limit the pig’s ability to find truffles, so long as there are empty spaces in the fenced area. There is a lot of math at work, but so long as there is an empty tile for the pig, they are almost guaranteed to find one truffle per day, with the chance for more.

The truffles will appear wherever the pig finds them, so creating a fenced area will also keep the truffles in the same area. Truffles will occasionally appear outside the fence because the pig tried to place them where the fence is, causing the truffle to shift outside, but they won’t get placed too far from the same area.

Having more pigs means they can find more truffles, but because of the way the truffle spawning works, you will want to give them even more space to search through. The higher your friendship level is with your pig, the better the chances of them finding a high-quality truffle.
