Lumber is one of the earliest resources you’ll be able to find in Harvestella, and the closest locations happen to be right under your nose. Thoroughly exploring your own little farm in Bird’s Eye Brae will reveal several nodes you can harvest Lumber from. Make sure to check down each of the sprawling paths around your farm, and you may just find some chests with valuable items in them as well.

There’s even a separate area called Small Field that’s connected to Bird’s Eye Brae with even more nodes to collect resources from. Resource nodes only respawn when a new day begins, so make sure to collect all you can each day to maximize your materials.
