The available SVE forage changes substantially by season.

Where Is Marnie's Shed?

The shed is behind Marnie's Ranch on the expanded Cindersap Forest map. Its door is normally available from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, so arrive during the day even though the event itself accepts times through 8:00 PM.

Marnie does not teach a “Cheese Rings” cooking recipe. Her event renames and improves the existing Cheese and Goat Cheese objects, changes their sprites into wheels, and raises their base value and energy recovery.
