How to Build Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

In *Fields of Mistria*, expanding your farm to accommodate more crops and animals is a vital step in your farming journey. The game's v0.13.0 update introduced a Farm Expansion feature that significantly increases your farm's space by extending it across the river to a new plot of land. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to unlock and build the farm expansion in *Fields of Mistria*.

How to Unlock Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

To unlock the Farm Expansion, you'll first need to visit the **Carpenter’s Shop** located in the Eastern Road area. You can purchase the expansion as early as your first year in town, but there are significant prerequisites to meet.

The first step is to help the town reach **Rank 55** by accumulating enough Renown points. This rank is also necessary to unlock the Stone Refinery repair quest, which is crucial for gathering materials needed for the expansion. Both requirements are interconnected, so achieving Rank 55 is essential.

Once you've met these initial conditions, you'll need to gather the required materials for the expansion. Be prepared for a substantial investment of time and resources.

How to Build Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

Head to the Carpenter’s Shop on the Eastern Road, northeast of Mistria’s town center. From the shop’s main menu, select ‘Farm Expansion’ at the bottom to view the requirements.

The first requirement is **40,000 Tesserae**, which covers the monetary cost of the upgrade. Accumulating this amount will take time, so maximize your efforts in gathering, farming, and completing quests. Regularly visit the Mines, fish, and contribute new items to the Museum to boost your Tesserae.

Next, you'll need **50 x Refined Stone**. To obtain this, you must first repair the **Stone Refinery**, which requires reaching Town Rank 55 and repairing the **Inn** beforehand.

Lastly, you'll need **50 x Hard Wood**, which is relatively easier to gather. With a **Copper Axe**, you can harvest Hard Wood from the **large tree stumps** found around your farm and beyond, each yielding 2 x Hard Wood. Alternatively, you can acquire this material from **Balor’s Cart** on specific days or by contributing enough items to the Museum.

Once you've gathered all the necessary materials and funds, return to the Carpenter’s Shop and purchase the expansion. This will extend your farm eastward across the river, complete with a new bridge for easy access.
