The shop at Horn Ranch is run by Hannah. She sells a variety of products relating to the care of animals. When you buy an animal from her, she will ask you to give it a name and the creature automatically is transfered to your farm.
When you visit the ranch for the first time, go into the barn and Cain will give you a free baby cow and a free Brush. You also can get the Sickle tool by talking to Hannah when she's inside the ranch shop.
Renee is the daughter of Cain and Hannah, and a marriage candidate if you are playing as the boy gender. She typically can be found inside the shop or outside between the shop and the barn.

Waterwheel
The waterwheel is located just across the bridge that leads to Kaval Meadow. At first there doesn't appear to be any way inside of it, due to the camera angle, but if you continue to walk against the fence you'll find a doorway inside.
The giant wheel is used for converting certain crops into products:
- Corn -> Cornmeal
- Wheat -> Wheat Flour
- Buckwheat -> Buckwheat Flour
To use the waterwheel, place the specific crop in the gray-colored bucket and in return you'll receive the converted item of the same quality. You can actually get something better (or worse!) in return depending on the weather:
- Snowstorm: Rank +2
- Snow: Rank +1
- Rain: Rank -1
- Heavy Rain: Rank -2
- Hurricane: Rank -3
So if you put a Good Corn in the watherwheel during a Winter snowstorm, you will receive Shining Cornmeal in exchange. On sunny or cloudy days the waterwheel will not affect your processed Corn, Wheat, or Buckwheat.
The converted items can be shipped for a little more profit when compared to the normal crop, or you can use them in a variety of cooking recipes.
Crop | Decent | Good | Perfect | Shining |
---|---|---|---|---|
Wheat Flour | 150 G | 180 G | 210 G | 270 G |
Cornmeal | 190 G | 230 G | 250 G | 330 G |
Buckwheat Flour | 220 G | 270 G | 300 G | 390 G |
Windmill
The windmill is located on the grounds of Horn Ranch. You won't be able to use it until after you chime the Red Bell; until then it is a temporary house for the ranch's chickens.
The blades of the building will spin on windy days. You can easily tell if the windmill is working that day by looking at the upper-left corner of your screen. If the windmill is moving next to your date and time, then it will be moving at Horn Ranch as well.
During windy days you can utilize the windmill to grind different crops:
- Rock Salt -> Salt
- Sugarcane -> Sugar
- Coffee Beans -> Ground Coffee
- Red Chili -> Curry Powder
To grind, put the crop in the gray-colored basket on the 1st floor of the windmill. You'll receive the processed item in return. You can only put 1 item in at a time, so you'll have to repeat the grind if you want several bags worth.
The current wind strength will affect the quality of product that you receive from the windmill. You will need to of chimed the Green Bell before you can use the wind's power to upgrade the quality of the processed item.
Crop | Light Breeze | Normal Wind | Heavy Wind |
---|---|---|---|
Salt | Decent Salt | Good Salt | Perfect Salt |
Sugar | Rank +1 | No Change | Rank -1 |
Ground Coffee | Rank +1 | No Change | Rank -1 |
Curry Powder | No Change | Rank +1 | Rank +2 |
You can get the next day's wind strength by watching Elli's weather report on your tv. After she tells you the weather for the next day, she will tell you what the wind strength will be.
The processed items can be shipped for profit or used for cooking ingredients.
