Accept the town's starter gift: a watering can, an axe, a scythe and a pack of seeds.
-
Follow the farming tutorial: till soil with the hoe, plant seeds, and water them daily until harvest.
-
Clear trash and debris with the scythe; each swing costs stamina and most piles take several hits.
B
Binoguio says:
Even the trash puts up a fight here.
-
Cut the grass and weeds for fiber and keep everything harvested, it all has a use later.
-
Hoe a plot of about ten tiles and plant the starter seeds on it.
-
Keep any coffer found while clearing the farm; a blacksmith unlocks what is inside it.

Read the mailbox letter: gather 50 wood and 20 stone, then order the house repair at the carpenter's counter.

Chop whole trees for wood instead of fallen logs, since mature trees drop much more.
B
Binoguio says:
One tree, many planks. Solid deal.
-
Save the Candied tree seed to eat when energy runs low.
-
Craft a makeshift chest from wood and trash, then place it near the house.
-
Store sap, scrap, trash, glass and coal in the chest and keep wood and stone in the backpack.

Swing the pickaxe at loose stones to gather the 20 stone; missed swings still drain energy.
-
Keep any geode found while mining stones for a later trip to the blacksmith.
-
Head into Starlet Town in the evening and introduce yourself to the townsfolk.

Press M for the map and find Sam's General Store just east of the farm.
-
Meet Sam, the store owner, and buy more seeds from him; most of his stock is seasonal.

Buy carrot and potato seeds to expand the plots, weighing each seed's cost against its sale value.

Carrot prices bite. Potatoes behave.

Walk northeast past the town center and museum to reach the carpenter's shop.

Order the fix up our house upgrade at the carpenter's counter with the 50 wood and 20 stone.

Let the carpenters finish the same-day repair, which enlarges the house and adds a wardrobe and a free TV.
B
Binoguio says:
A free television. The mold was complimentary too.
-
Watch the new TV: the weather channel reveals rainy days, so watering can be skipped then.
-
Scythe the big messy piles on the farm for hay and wild seeds, saving hay for future animals.
