Of course, you need to find a way to plant the seeds before they can grow into something eatable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Planting seeds isn&rsquo;t a huge ordeal but there are some items you need before the process can bear fruit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Planting seeds in Valheim&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/OT5WUjd6wiBoXKZgR5faIsBzhaZH5x5NeXEYEYywNRQ\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzL3ZhbGhlaW1fc2VlZHNfMi5wbmc\" alt=\"Valheim planting seeds and farming\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\">Every base in Valheim needs a sustainable food source. (Picture: Iron Gate)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Naturally, the first item you&rsquo;re going to need is the seeds themselves. In total, there are three seeds that you can plant and eventually eat in Valheim. In no particular order, they are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Carrot seed: Located on the ground in the Black Forest<\/li>\n<li>Turnip seed: Found in the Swamp biome off Turnip flowers<\/li>\n<li>Beech seed: Sparingly dropped by cutting down Beech trees<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There&rsquo;s technically a fourth seed in Valheim, the Ancient seed, but this is not for planting. Instead, you can use three of these to summon the second boss, The Elder. So if you find one by killing Greydwarf Shaman or Brutes, hang on to them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once you have a healthy amount of seeds, it&rsquo;s time to plant them in some soil. If you have a sizable base set up, try to place the farm close by but not too close, as something like a Beech tree can grow fairly large.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After you have a spot selected, you need to craft the Cultivator tool. This recipe is unlocked by chopping down Pine trees with a Bronze axe and looting Core Wood.<\/p>\n<p>To make the Cultivator, you&rsquo;ll need 10 Core Wood and five Bronze bars, which can be made with 10 Copper and 5 Tin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/kFx3NWHO9Gd3jvVFctzVYwYkfmjBr6mh5bPaU3cDt3w\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzL3ZhbGhlaW1fc2VlZF8zLnBuZw\" alt=\"Valheim seeds how to find and plant\" width=\"922\" height=\"581\" loading=\"lazy\"><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">A Cultivator is the main tool used in planting seeds.
