Stardew Valley Penny: How To Foster A Relationship

There are plenty of options to choose from when it comes to picking the best gift for Penny. However, many are dishes that require you to unlock the recipe first. These dishes have a chance to appear in Gus’s rotary stock at the Stardrop Saloon, so it is worth checking in daily to see if he has any of Penny’s favourites on the menu.

The Sandfish may be caught in any season or weather; however, it is only catchable in The Calico Desert which means the player will have to complete The Community Centre bundles first.

The Diamond or Emerald as with most other gemstones can be found through fishing, panning or in the mines.

The easiest gifts to obtain for Penny are the Melon and Poppy, the seeds of which are obtained from Pierre’s shop. (Melon in the summer and Poppy in the Fall.) These crops are simple to grow, just be sure to grow enough to gift and keep hold of one of them to give to Penny on her birthday (Fall, 2). Doing this will ensure a x8 to friendship.

Penny helps George reach for some letters in his mailbox. He lashes out at her in frustration in which the player walks into the scene and can either support Penny’s decision to help him or tell Penny that she should have asked George if he wanted help first. George apologises to Penny for being overly sensitive and thanks her for her help.

Four Hearts

The player helps Penny tidy up her trailer but Pam returns home and shouts at Penny for letting other people tidy her mess. Penny questions Pam if she was at the saloon and the player gets their first glimpse that Pam may have a drinking problem. They have an argument and the player leaves. Pam admits to Penny that she got angry because she’s embarrassed.

Six Hearts

The player walks into Penny’s trailer as she’s making dinner. The player tries the dish and gets sick, they have the option to either hint that her dish isn’t nice or lie to her, and tell her it's good. The latter will give a bonus to friendship.

Eight Hearts

Upon entering Cindersnap Forest you see Penny, Vincent and Jas having a lesson about agriculture. Penny asks the Player to give a speech about farming for the children. After giving a speech (by choosing prompts) the children go to play and Penny asks the player if they want to have kids one day.

Ten Hearts (After gifting Penny the Bouquet)

The player joins Penny at the Spa per her invitation. Penny confesses her romantic feelings for the player, who has the choice to reciprocate or let her down. If reciprocated, the two share a kiss in the pool.
