Relying solely on scavenging for food is unsustainable. Farming provides a renewable and reliable food source.

  • Farming Steps:
    1. Find a Hoe/Pickaxe: Used to cultivate garden plots.
    2. Find Seeds: Tomato, pepper, pumpkin, potato, cannabis seeds.
    3. Cultivate a Garden Plot: Use a hoe/pickaxe on suitable ground.
    4. Plant Seeds: Drag seeds onto the garden plot.
    5. Water: Use a watering can, plastic bottle, or canteen filled with water.
    6. Harvest: Once fully grown, harvest your crops.
  • Other Sustainable Food:
    • Hunting: With a knife, you can skin and quarter animals (deer, boar, bear, wolf, rabbit, chicken). Cook meat over a fire.
    • Fishing: Craft a fishing rod (long stick, rope, hook) and dig for worms. Fish in rivers or the sea.

Strategy: Set up a small garden plot near your base or a safe location. Farming requires consistent watering. Hunting and fishing are good supplements, but require more active engagement.
