How To Get (& Use) Tent Kits In Stardew Valley

In , you can now use Tent Kits to set up temporary Tents outdoors. Newly added in the 1.6 Update, Tents allow players to rest, save their games, and progress to the next day. Tent Kits are a great utility item while you’re away from the creature comforts of your farmhouse, but they can be challenging to craft.
