How to obtain Stardew Valley Mystery Boxes

You can get Mystery Boxes by completing some of your regular Stardew Valley activities like mining, fishing, and chopping down trees. These new geodes are generated randomly, so there is a bit of luck involved when trying to collect Mystery Boxes.

But before you can start acquiring these Mystery Boxes, you’ll first need to trigger a cutscene where someone flying a plane will drop a bunch of boxes in your general area. This event can pop up randomly after you go to sleep.

The boxes from the cutscene don’t really drop anywhere since it’s just there to let you know that Mystery Boxes can now be randomly found while doing your chores.

How to open Mystery Boxes in Stardew Valley

You can open Mystery Boxes by taking them to Clint the blacksmith on the east side of Pelican Town. Unfortunately, Clint’s box-opening services aren’t free and he’ll charge you 25 gold for each Mystery Box you want opened.

Here’s a list of what some players have found inside these boxes so far:

• 10 Quality Fertilizer
• 10 Deluxe Speed-Gro
• 10 Hardwood
• 8 Pepper Seeds and 8 Wheat Seeds
• 3 Coffee Cups

And that’s everything on Stardew Valley Mystery Boxes we’ve found. For more on the farming sim, you can visit our Stardew Valley Fishing hub or learn how to get through the haunted maze.
