Yam Seeds are a type of seed. Mature plants yield Yams.

They can be purchased at Pierre's General Store, at JojaMart, from the Magic Shop Boat at the Night Market on Winter 17, and occasionally from the Traveling Cart. They can also be obtained by using the Seed Maker. Five to twenty Yam Seeds may occasionally be found in treasure rooms in the Skull Cavern.

Yam Seeds Cheat Help

Item spawning in Stardew Valley isn't accomplished through typical commands. Instead, it involves a cheat method where you name your character, or an animal, with the item code of the desired item, enclosed in square brackets [ and ]. Include the brackets when naming.

Spawn Using Animal Name

To spawn this item, buy an animal (we recommend a chicken because it is the cheapest) from Marnie's Ranch, name it [492]. You will then receive the Yam Seeds item.

Spawn Using Character Name

Since you can only set your character's name once at the game's inception, we advise using the animal naming method.

However, if you opt for this method, name your character [492] while creating your save file. When you converse with any villager who mentions your name in their dialogue, like Gus at the Stardrop Saloon, you'll receive the Yam Seeds item.
