How to Store Forageables in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life
Forageables can be stored in the player’s bag, the shed, or the refrigerator because they don’t spoil. These items are some of the only ones that can’t go bad or rot in the player’s inventory so that they can sit there forever. We prefer organizing them in our refrigerator if they’re edible and doing the same in our shed if they’re not so that we can see each stack at a glance and know where they are at all times. Of course, it’s always worth having a flower on your character just in case they need to flirt with a love interest.
