Stardew Valley Mods I use

STARDEW VALLEY MODS
To download any mods for Stardew, you’ll NEED SMAPI, which you can download here.
Download instructions can be found on the wiki page.
Now I have downloaded all of my mods from NexusMods, you’ll need to make an account if you don’t have one already. NexusMods also has its own mod organizer, Vortex, so you don’t have to manually download them all. Its also great if you want to mod multiple games and you can have all your mods in one place. Its not a requirement to download, as you can manually put all mods in the mod folders, which you are welcome to do so if you don’t feel like downloading Vortex.
!I will always try to list when a mod requires another mod to work!
Here are my current mods (in no particular order)
