Stardew Valley lets players create their own idyllic farm as they work towards growing and expanding it. Scarecrows in Stardew Valley are great to ward off pesky crows from your fields and crops, but what is the range, and how do you get and craft them?

Releasing back in 2016, Stardew Valley has lots of fun features, from farming, learning how to fish, crafting and using different types of bait, to finding secret items like the Skull Key and figuring out where to use it. Stardew’s features can even be taken further with some fantastic community-made mods!

As players set up their farms and start to grow crops, you’ll need to craft Scarecrows in Stardew Valley to ward off any unwanted visitors like crows. You’ll be able to craft them after reaching level 1 in Farming, but knowing the range for both the standard and Deluxe versions in the game will help you maximize their potential.

What is the Stardew Valley Scarecrow range?

The range for the Scarecrow in Stardew Valley is 8 tiles in all directions, at a total of 248 squares. This means that you can protect a decent amount of your crops. Despite this, though, there’ll likely be some spaces on your farm that aren’t protected due to the hexagonal shape of the range.

To combat this, we recommend making sure to maximize your output by placing down and overlapping Scarecrows with one another.
