🟠 Copper Hoe

The Copper Hoe is the first upgrade to the basic Hoe in Stardew Valley. It is obtained by bringing 5 Copper Bars and 2,000g to the Blacksmith. The Copper Hoe allows the player to charge up and till multiple tiles of soil at once, making it easier to prepare farmland quickly at the start of each season.
