How to Get Tools in Clover Time: Rake and Axe Quests

How do you get your first tools in Clover Time?

According to community wiki reports, your first two tools in Clover Time – the rake and the axe – are earned through two free early-game quests rather than purchased. One NPC near the starting area hands you a rake for collecting potatoes, and a lumberjack quest reportedly grants an axe for gathering firewood. The table below summarizes what the community sources describe; treat exact requirements as version-dependent until you read them in the game.

These quests also teach the game’s two basic gathering actions – crop harvesting and woodcutting – which community guides describe as feeding directly into early quests and crafting.

How do you get the rake from Lily?

Community wiki reports describe Lily standing outside the starting church. Accepting her quest to collect 4 potatoes grants the rake for free, and the source article says it is equipped directly once received.

1. Find Lily outside the starting church.
2. Read her quest and accept it.
3. Collect 4 potatoes from the nearby fields.
4. Return to Lily to turn the quest in.

How do you harvest crops with the rake?

According to community guides, you walk up to a mature crop and press E to harvest it. Potatoes may drop to the ground instead of going straight into your inventory, so check the ground around the plant and collect what falls before moving on. Once you have the potatoes, return to Lily to complete her quest.

How do you get the axe from the lumberjack?

Community wiki reports describe a lumberjack who offers a collect-firewood quest. Accepting it reportedly grants the axe for free, and the axe goes into your inventory. The source article describes collecting wood from five trees, but that number has not been confirmed as a fixed quest requirement, so read the quest text in your own session before planning a route.

The lumberjack’s exact name and map location were not provided by our sources. The verification path is the same as Lily’s: find the quest giver, read the quest conditions, accept, and check whether the axe appears in your inventory.

What are potatoes and wood used for?

Community guides report that both gathering outputs feed into progression: potatoes are used in early quests and crafting, and wood is used in crafting. Our sources did not confirm specific recipes or quantities, so this page deliberately does not list them.
