Without tools, the only means of survival in Fae Farm would be foraging. Though running around town picking up a bunch of stuff doesn’t sound like a terrible way to spend my time, I’d instead tend to my set of tools, thank you.
Fae Farm’s toolset allows you to farm, fish, cut wood, catch critters, mow grass, and even battle jumbles. Still, doing that can be tiring and time-consuming unless you upgrade your tools.
All Fae Farm Tools & How They Work

How to Upgrade Tools in Fae Farm
The shovel, ax, pickax, sickle, and watering can are upgraded by Cinder, the blacksmith who lives by the docks. In exchange for some ingots and gold, she will upgrade these tools to be more efficient and even have mana-consuming and time-saving powers.
On the other hand, the Rod and Net can only be upgraded by Eddy, the fisher, and Mel, the beekeeper, respectively. These upgrades do not require ingredients, only cash.
