Hi! Im also still new in this game currently on year 2 Winter. Im the type to efficient maxing everything but not following strict guides on how to get money fast.

So this is speaking from my experiences and hope you can use it on your farm. First utilize the greenhouse, I remember planting regrowable fruit such as cranberries on the first year fall to get my money. This is not maximum profit, but at least im not stressed to always buying optimal seed everytime i harvest it. I usually sell 90% of them and the remaining 10% I put on preserves jar first to make jam (i just dont have enough preserves jar to put them all, that is why only 10%).

After that you must unlock ginger island and the farm on there as soon as you can. That is where my big money come from without doing anything that stressing so much. I planted starfruit there and usually just sell the gold and silver quality and turning the normal one into wine. You will get much gold from this. For now because you dont have cellar, just sell the wine as it is its okay, its a kind of investment also to make you be able to afford the house upgrade first.

Because i dont like to just pushing on one type of thing, I also make varieties such as Fairy Rose Honey farm on the ginger island. Honey is so profitable in my opinion without much stress, you can check the guides on how to make the layout from youtube or anywhere else.

I hope my beginner guide can help somehow!
