hard stone is one of the many materials you can collect in At harvest.
It will also most likely be the first material you seek in Harvestella, as without Hard Stone you won’t be able to complete your first memo – Make a Hammer.
Below you will learn how to find hard stone and, when reunited, how to make a hammer at Harvestelle.

How to Find Hard Stone in Harvestella
Hardstone can be found in Harvestella by interacting with mining hotspots, which are located in many different locations in the game.
Mining hotspots are represented by a rock icon, and after you mine one for the first time, that icon will appear on your map. Although each mining hotspot grants you two items per day, mining reduces your stamina and you are not guaranteed to receive Hard Stone.
You may find it difficult to collect Hardstone during Harvestella Chapter 1 since you only have access to your farm, Lethe Village, and a limited amount of Njord Steppe. There are three mining hotspots in the small section of Njord Steppe that are open to you, but there’s a chance you’ll receive other items, like monlite shards, while doing so.
Fortunately, your farm contains a number of mining hotspots – be sure to check out the small field, which is accessed through the southern entrance to your main farm field.
How to Make a Harvestella Hammer
You need to collect 10 hard stones to craft a Hammer in Harvestella, which you can easily find by following our instructions above.
However, you need to unlock the crafting first, which luckily is very easy to do as it will automatically unlock on day 3 of the Spring Zephyr.
Once crafting is unlocked and you have collected 10 hardstones, visit the crafting table inside your house. Here, you’ll be able to see all of the crafting recipes you’ve currently unlocked, and since you probably won’t have many, the hammer recipe will be easy to find.
The hammer will also only take 10 minutes to craft, and when finished, you can destroy the small rocks on your farm field!
Hope you enjoy Harvestella!
