Stardew Valley isn't a linear game by any means, but there is a main questline of sorts. You will eventually run into its rundown community center when you move to Pelican Town. Joja is currently in the process of trying to buy the building, but through some Junimo magic, you have the chance to fix it up and send the twisted company packing. Sadly, completing the bundles is no easy task. You will need to focus on all the different aspects of the game to gather the necessary materials for satisfying the bundles.

Every completed bundle will lead to rewards, and finishing a room will unlock something new for the rest of your game. Note: This guide is for the standard bundles, not the remixed ones offered by a new setting when you create a new file.

Updated March 4, 2023 by Ryan Bamsey: With Stardew Valley's continued success, more players flock to the game every day. We've taken another look at this guide to make sure everything is readable and clear, so you can complete your bundles to the best of your abilities!

How To Unlock The Community Center

Stardew Valley: A Guide To Completing The Community Center (1)

The Community Center is easy to unlock; simply walk into town between 8 am and 1 pm from Spring 5 onward to get a cutscene with Lewis. He will ask you to investigate what he believes to be a rat problem in the old building.

Upon entering, you will find an old book in a strange language. Visiting the Wizard will trigger a cutscene that will allow you to read the book and start donating to the Craft Room Bundle. After donating a certain amount of items, the other bundles will appear at different locations around the Community Center.

The Bundles

Stardew Valley: A Guide To Completing The Community Center (2)

To make completing the Community Center easier, the bundles are divided by room and the different bundle goals. The items listed next to the bundle's name are the completion rewards that you will receive after donating every item.

If you play with the Remixed Community Center setting, added in the 1.5 update of the game, the bundles will be much different. We have a guide for these bundles that can be found here.

The Crafts Room Bundle

Stardew Valley: A Guide To Completing The Community Center (3)

The Crafts Room is one of the easiest bundles to complete as it relies on you turning in easy-to-forage items. The only catch is that it can't be completed until you've seen all four seasons.

Completing this bundle will get the bridge in the hills repaired.
