There are 7 Harvest Sprites in Harvest Moon: Back To Nature.
All of the Sprites are identified by the color they are wearing. They live in a little hut behind the Church. You can get assistance from them to your farmwork like taking care of animals, watering the fields, and harvesting crops. There are 7 of them, Chef, Nappy, Hoggy, Aqua, Bold, Timid and lastly, Staid. You can only request help from the sprites in Summer, Fall, and Winter. You can't ask them for help in Spring because they have a Tea Party. They also have a story on a book in the Library. The Book's cover Title is "The 7 Brothers in the Forest". The book has a total of seven volumes.
Requesting Help
You should have affection with them so they can work more on your farm.
Each Sprite can only do one of three things: Harvest the fields, Water the fields, or Take care of the animals. After you ask what to do, they will ask you how many days they will help (1 day, 3 days, or 8 days).
Harvest the fields
The sprite will harvest plants and ship them instantly. Sprites are able to reach the middle plant. They can also reach plants that are being blocked by weeds, wood, or rock.
Water the fields
After asking, the Sprite will help you to water the fields. They will water the field square by square. They will not water the field if nothing has been planted. Sprites are able to water the middle plant.
Take care of the animals
After asking, the Sprite will help feed the animals and take animal products to the shipping bin. If you need the animal's produce to use in cooking or something else, you need to be fast and get them before the Sprite does.
Affection
You can raise their affection to you if you give their favorite items like flour.
If you always make them work without giving them anything or talking to them, they affection to you will decrease so you always have to give them items to maintain their affections to you. In their Tea Party, you can increase their affection since you are giving some items to them.
If you give them an item or their favorite item in their birthday, their affection will significantly increase to you.
Birthdays
They also have their own Birthdays too like the Villagers in the town. Their affection to you also raise when giving items in their birthdays.

What you'll need:
- Large Rucksack
- 7 Flour
You should go to their Hut any day in Spring at the time of 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm to trigger the event. When you go to the inside, you should give each of them flour and they will invite you to their Tea Party. After the Party, they will give you a Relaxtaion Tea leaves.
Event
- There's an event in the fourth year of the Game. This is happens in night when you go to the Church's area and see Harris. Then you can see an invisible thing carries a light and will say to you that "Walking in the night is scary budum.". You and Harris drag him inside the Church and then you saw who it really is. It is Chef. He says that he is scared walking in the night so Carter gave him a lantern.
Trivia
- Each sprite's color corresponds to a color of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, indigo.
- Although they will say that they can't work for you because of their Tea Party, you can make them work for you by talking to them five times.
