Farm Carrots
To be a good farmer in Valheim, you need to do a few things. The first step is to get a Cultivator. When you have the Cultivator selected/in hand, you can right-click on it and do a variety of things. You can place grass, cultivate an area, as well as plant a variety of seeds.
How to Create a Cultivator

Step #1 – You’ll want to chop some pine trees down in the Black Forest. The recipe for the Cultivator shows that you will need Core Wood, which can be gotten from pine trees, and some Bronze. To get the bronze, you’ll need to mine the tin and copper from the Black Forest as well. This will enable you to make a forge, which is a requirement to make the Cultivator.
While you’re holding your hammer, right-click on “Crafting”, and you’ll see “Forge”.
Once you have made a Cultivator, you’re going to want to create a carrot farm. Carrot seeds are a requirement and you can find them throughout the Black Forest biome. Keep your eyes on the ground (literally) when looking for them.
Plant your seeds, and once you have carrots, you can get more seeds without having to find them in the wild.
Cultivate Your Land
Luckily this isn’t too difficult. Left-click on the land and cultivate it. Simple. Now, you can right-click and select the carrot slot. Place them as you see fit by simply left-clicking. Careful, though. Do not place them too close together or they will not be ideal.
Carrot Placement Trick
Grab a 1×1 wooden floor piece and put it down on the ground. Next, take a carrot and place them at each corner. Its’ a cool trick and makes sure your carrots are healthy. Also, you’ll need to pick up the wood (smash it with a hammer) so that the carrots have enough room to grow. A brown carrot means it’s unhealthy and a green one indicates healthy.
Once your carrots are mature, feel free to collect them for dinner. You can also right-click on your Cultivator and place the seeds down. Remember to space them correctly. Press “E” to cultivate them and eat them for supper!
Fence
For your farm, you’ll need a fence. Keeping out the deer, the boars, the goblins, and so on, is a necessity and a fence will do the trick. No fence means no carrots.
