Spring is the season when players first begin the game. It's followed by Summer and preceded by Winter .
In Spring, the grass is green. Trees regain their leaves, and pink petals blow through the air on windy days. There is also a variety of crops , forageable items , and fish which appear only during this season . Salmonberry season lasts between the 15th-18th of Spring. When Spring starts, new logs, rocks, and grass patches will spawn on the farm, in Cindersap Forest , and Pelican Town .
