"Guide to Expanding Your Farm in Fields of Mistria"

In *Fields of Mistria*, expanding your farm is crucial for those looking to increase their crop and animal spaces. The game's v0.13.0 update introduced a Farm Expansion feature that significantly enhances your farm's area, extending it across the river to the right. This guide will walk you through the process of unlocking and building the farm expansion.

How to Unlock Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

The Farm Expansion is available for purchase at the **Carpenter's Shop** located in the Eastern Road area. You can buy it as early as your first year, but you need to meet certain progress requirements first.

To unlock the expansion, you must help the town reach **Rank 55** by accumulating enough Renown points. Additionally, you need to complete the Stone Refinery repair quest, which also requires Town Rank 55. These requirements are interconnected, so achieving one helps with the other.

After meeting these initial milestones, you'll need to gather the necessary materials for the expansion, which is a significant undertaking in the game.

How to Build Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

To begin the expansion process, 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' to view the requirements.

The monetary cost for the expansion is a hefty **40,000 Tesserae**. Accumulating this amount will take time, so engage in activities like gathering, farming, and completing quests. Regularly visit the Mines, fish when you can, and contribute new items to the Museum to maximize your earnings.

You'll also need **50 x Refined Stone**, which requires repairing the **Stone Refinery**. This repair can only be done after reaching Town Rank 55 and after repairing the Inn.

Lastly, gather **50 x Hard Wood**, the easiest material to acquire. Once you have a **Copper Axe**, you can chop **large tree stumps** around your farm and beyond, each yielding 2 x Hard Wood. You can also obtain Hard Wood from **Balor's Cart** on specific days or by donating items to the Museum.

With all the required materials and funds in hand, return to the Carpenter's Shop and purchase the expansion. This will extend your farm eastward across the river, complete with a bridge for easy access.
