How to build Silo in Stardew Valley
The Silo is one of the farm buildings in Stardew Valley that serves as a storage facility for Hay, which is essential as feed for farm animals. Nevertheless, to build this structure on your farm, you will need to gather the following resources.

- 100 Stones
- 10 Clay
- 5 Copper Bars
How to get Stones
Fortunately, you can gather stones easily in multiple ways. You can either obtain stones by mining them from rocks using a pickaxe or you can also purchase stones directly from Robin at the Carpenter's Shop. Keep in mind that it will cost you 2 Gold Coins for a single Stone.
How to get Clay
To get the second resource clay, you will need to tile soils or dirt on your farm. Alternatively, you can also acquire Clay by mining it from Clay Nodes present in the Ginger Island Dig Site, or by breaking off a few Geodes.
How to get Copper Bars
You cannot acquire Copper Bars directly in the game. Instead, you must first acquire Copper Ore by mining Copper Nodes using a pickaxe. Once Copper Ore is obtained, you will need to place it in the Furnace along with Coal to smelt it into Copper Bars. It is worth mentioning that crafting one Copper Bar requires 5 Copper Ores and 1 Coal.
