Farm Expansion Guide: Fields of Mistria

In *Fields of Mistria*, expanding your farm is crucial as you progress and need more space for crops and animals. The game's v0.13.0 update introduced the Farm Expansion feature, which allows you to significantly increase your farm's area. This guide will walk you through the process of unlocking and building the Farm Expansion in *Fields of Mistria*.

How to Unlock Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

The Farm Expansion extends your farm's width across the river to the right, providing additional land for more structures and crop spaces. To unlock this feature, head to the **Carpenter’s Shop** located on the Eastern Road. You can purchase the expansion as early as your first year, but you'll need to meet certain progress requirements first.

To buy the Farm Expansion, you must help the town reach **Rank 55** by earning enough Renown points. Additionally, you need to complete the Stone Refinery repair quest, which also requires Town Rank 55. These steps are interconnected, ensuring you're adequately prepared for the expansion.

Once these initial requirements are met, you'll need to gather the necessary materials, which is a significant investment in the game.

How to Build Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

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

You'll need **40,000 Tesserae** to cover the monetary cost. Accumulating this amount will take time, so focus on gathering resources, farming, and completing quests. Regularly explore the Mines, fish, and contribute to the Museum.

Next, you'll require **50 x Refined Stone**, which means repairing the **Stone Refinery**—a task that also requires Town Rank 55 and repairing the Inn beforehand.

Lastly, gather **50 x Hard Wood**, the easiest material to collect. With a **Copper Axe**, chop the 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 certain days or by contributing to the Museum.

Once you have all the required 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 bridge for easy access.
