Caroline might not be the most noticeable villager in Stardew Valley, but that doesn't mean she's not worth getting to know. As Pierre's significant other, Caroline lives together with him and their daughter Abigail. She's also excellent friends with Jodi.
Stardew Valley: What To Do With Thunder Eggs
Thunder Eggs don't have any obvious uses in Stardew Valley, but players can still do something with them.
Players will probably best know Caroline for her aerobics classes that she runs at her house, located inside Pierre's shop every Tuesday. Sadly, the gifts Caroline gives to the player aren't that interesting compared to some of the other characters, but for Stardew Valley completionists, becoming good friends with her is still worth the effort. Plus, there is one special crafting recipe, the Tea Sapling, that is exclusive to Caroline's 2-Heart Event.
Gift Guide
.jpg?q=50&fit=crop&w=500&dpr=1.5)
All good things with villagers are achieved through gifts in Stardew Valley. To make Caroline happy, players should offer her gifts regularly, especially on her birthday, which is on Winter 7, to get a relationship boost.
Caroline is most often found at Pierre's General Store or sometimes at the Pelican town square. However, on Wednesdays, she's at the fountain by the Community Center, and on Fridays, she can also be found at the museum.
Loved Gifts
For a boost of 80 points in friendship with Caroline, players should prioritize giving her some of her Loved Gifts. Summer Spangle is probably the most accessible gift, as Spangle Seeds become available during summer from Pierre's General Store, though they do take 8 days to mature and grow. Otherwise, after her 2-Heart Event, Green Tea becomes a solid option as well once players have a tea sapling growing.

Green Tea
-
Summer Spangle
-
Fish Taco
-
Tropical Curry
- All Universal Loves

Quests
Like most villagers, Caroline will sometimes ask for help at the Help Wanted board posted outside of Pierre's General Store. Caroline will pay the player triple the value of the item she's asking for, and will also increase her relationship with the player by 150 points, making these mini-quests well worth a player's while.
Stardew Valley: How To Get Clay
Clay is used to craft the silo and some soils in Stardew Valley, but it's not obvious how to collect large numbers of the resource.
On Fall 19, players will receive a message from Caroline asking for a Pumpkin. Though growing one will take some time, it's worth completing it, since the reward is 500 gold and a whole 1-heart of additional friendship with Caroline.
Friendship Perks
Once players gain a bit of friendship with Caroline, she will begin to send them gifts in the mail. Compared to other villagers in Stardew Valley, Caroline's gifts are a bit underwhelming:
- Cauliflower
- Parsnip
- Potato
However, the good news is that Caroline also sends the player three great recipes for cooking in the mail:
- Tea Sapling Recipe: After the 2-Heart Event, Caroline will send instructions in the mail on how to craft a tea sapling to grow a tea tree, which will give the player green tea leaves.
- Parsnip Soup Recipe: After Caroline's 3-Heart Event, instructions for this recipe appear in the mail. The soup increases Energy and Health.
- Vegetable Stew/Vegetable Medley: After her 7-Heart Event, she sends instructions for Vegetable Medley, which increases Energy and Health.
