Flute Fields is a district in Harvest Moon: Animal Parade.

The Flute Fields district is located east of your farm, across the stone bridge. Fugue Forest, Horn Ranch, Marimba Farm, Moon Hill, Horn Ranch's windmill, the district's watermill, Chase's house, and Julius's house are located here. You can buy animal care items, purchase/sell livestock, seeds, and saplings.

The shops in this district are closed on Wednesdays and festival days.

Horn Ranch[]

Horn Ranch is open from 8am to 8pm. Hannah runs the ranch's shop and sells animal care items, animal products, livestock, and cooking recipes. Her husband, Cain, and her daughter, Renee, also live at Horn Ranch.

When you visit Horn Ranch for the first time, go to their barn and Cain will give you a free calf and a free brush. Hannah will give you the Sickle when you enter the shop.

Windmill[]

The windmill is located at Horn Ranch. You can grind Rock Salt, Sugarcane, Coffee Beans, and Red Chili there on windy days. The wind strength affects the quality of your ground product(s). To find the wind strength, look at the windmill icon at the upper-left corner of your screen to see if it is spinning. If you brought a TV from the general store you can watch Elli's weather report and she will tell you what the wind strength will be for the following day.

Moon Hill[]

Moon Hill is located between Horn Ranch and Marimba Farm. It is only open on Day 13 of Fall, the Moon Viewing Festival, and Winter 11 for the Starry Night Festival.

Marimba Farm[]

Marimba Farm is open from 8am to 8pm. Ruth runs the store, and her husband Craig and children Anissa and Taylor live on the farm with them. Taylor does not return to the farm until you purchase a telephone, and Anissa does not arrive until you have rung the yellow bell.

You may purchase seasonal seeds, seasonal crops, fertilizer, saplings, and cooking recipes in the store.

Chase's house is next door to the Store.

Waterwheel[]

The Waterwheel is on the south-eastern path of Flute Fields near Julius's house. You can grind Corn, Wheat, and Buckwheat if there is wind. Corn can be ground into cornmeal, wheat into wheat flour and buckwheat into buckwheat flour.

Fugue Forest[]

Access to the forest is locked until you acquire an Axe. You have to keep the Axe in your rucksack when you try to enter the forest, else you'll find the gate to be locked.

The forest is a maze of several randomly generated screens. Each time you enter a new area, you have to look around the outside edges to find the path leading to the next screen. There are sometimes trees and rocks that block the exit path, so the Axe and Hammer will be necessary to use. Each day in the forest you'll find a single Fugue Mushroom growing, which is an excellent gift for either the Witch or Wizard marriage candidates.

At the end of the Fugue Forest you'll find the Fugue Swamp, where the Witch lives in her lonely little hut. You will also find some fishing spots and a variety of wild animal pets you can befriend.
