Stepping outside, you’ll find that the rain has turned green, and the valley is undergoing strange changes. The main effects of Green Rain are:
Changes Villager Interactions and Daily Routines
In Year 1, Green Rain sparks a village-wide panic among the Villagers. They either remain indoors or gather at the Stardrop Saloon. Notably, Demetrius wears a hazmat suit to brave the rain for scientific study. Normal daily activities come to a halt as the Villagers try to understand the situation. Speaking with the Villagers during this time reveals their various theories and opinions about the rain.
In subsequent years, the panic dissipates among the Villagers, who now perceive the rain as a blessing. They resume their normal schedules, with shops and other services operating as usual.
Causes Wild Growth to Occur in The Valley
During the Green Rain event, there’s a surge in wild growth, resulting in an abundance of wild trees and weeds across the valley. Destroying this growth enables players to collect large amounts of Moss material. Additionally, special Fiddlehead Fern trees emerge during this event, providing Fiddlehead Ferns when chopped down. The growth disappears for weeds, while trees revert back to normal, when the next day arrives.
