Harvest Moon 64/Spring (Year 1)

Spring 3rd
As you wake up on your first day and eat your morning sushi roll, look around the room and make note of several things. First is the television. Turn it on by walking up to it and hitting. There are 3 different channels: one that tells you the next day's weather, one that gives help to beginners, and one that gives that months festival dates. Next is the book by the bed. This is not only used for saving and ending the day, but can also be used to check your current status and photographs or as a tutorial on how to use tools.

That out of the way, let's get started on your first (or third, as it seems to be) day. Outside, you'll see the mayor who wants to give you a tour of the town. If you are unfamiliar with the town, go ahead and take the tour, but it will take 2 hours out of the day. Either way, the first thing you want to do is to clear out the space in front of the shipping bin and till a 3 by 3 square. If you're extraordinarily lucky, you'll find a power berry tilling the soil, but don't count on it.

Leave your farm and take a right. This leads to a small clearing with a tent. Grab the edible herb and veryberry next to the tent, then head back to the farm. Throw the berry into the shipping bin and the edible herb into the dog's bowl. Run back to the crossroads and take the right fork heading up.

Welcome to East Flower Bud Village! The first building on the right is the florist. Head in and buy a bag of cabbage seeds. The next thing you need to do is to go around the town and meet everyone. Everyone but Rick, anyway. Rick's shop will be closed today- get used to it.

When you've met everyone, go back to the crossroads and take the lower left path to Green Ranch. Walk into the pasture to get your horse. Give it a name and it will be taken to your farm for you. When you're done with that, head back into the pasture and meet Gray, Ann, and their father.

If it's near dark, go back to your farm and plant the seeds in the area you tilled out earlier. You'll need to fill up the watering can at the pool in the lower right portion of the farm before you can water it, though.
