01

Can I save and reopen a farm layout?

The free Stardew Valley farm planner: test terrain, sprinklers, and exact building footprints on a 32×20 sandbox board with collision checks, coverage, history, JSON, and PNG export.

  1. Paint grass, soil, crops, water, or paths across the 32×20 sandbox board.
  2. Place exact sprinkler and building footprints; select, move, or delete them while overlap, bounds, coverage, undo, and redo update exactly.
  3. Export a PNG reference or save and reload the complete editable board using the strict versioned JSON format.

02

Can I save and reopen a farm layout?

Yes. Strict JSON export preserves all 32×20 terrain cells and placed objects for exact validation and reloading.

03

What is the planner grid size?

The sandbox is exactly 32 columns by 20 rows, or 640 editable cells. It does not claim to reproduce a vanilla farm map.

04

Which footprints and sprinkler ranges are modeled?

The board uses 1×1 sprinklers covering 4, 8, or 24 tiles, plus Coop 6×3, Barn 7×4, Shed 7×3, Silo 3×3, Mill 4×2, Stable 4×2, and Fish Pond 5×5 footprints.

05

What placement rules does the planner enforce?

An object must stay within the board and cannot overlap another object. Crop coverage counts only crop cells reached by the selected sprinkler patterns.
