Promenade Foraging & Fauna: Ducks, Berries & Leaf Piles

guide

Foraging through Promenade ecosystems uncovers wild ducks, ripe berry bushes, dropped orchard fruits, and decorative foliage piles. These wildlife encounters and botanical finds supply players with wholesome cooked poultry, vibrant blue dyes, sweet edible fruits, and modular foliage blocks for landscape gardening.

Wild Ducks and Poultry Preparation

Promenade features wild duck varieties with distinctive Pekin and Mallard plumage patterns:

Wild ducks wander gracefully across temperate grasslands and waterways throughout the world.
Defeating a wild duck yields Raw Duck, an uncooked poultry item.
Preparing poultry for consumption requires cooking one Raw Duck into one Cooked Duck. This culinary process can be performed across three different appliances:
- Campfire Cooking: Placing one raw duck onto an active campfire roasts it into one cooked duck over open embers without fuel consumption.
- Smelting: Cooking one raw duck inside a standard furnace with fuel smelts it into one cooked duck.
- Smoking: Processing one raw duck inside a smoker cooks it at double speed into one cooked duck.

Cooked duck serves as a nutritious food source for sustained exploration.

Foraging Berries and Orchard Fruits

Botanical gathering throughout wild landscapes rewards players with specialized crops and natural dyes:

Wild Blueberry Bush patches yield edible Blueberries. Beyond direct consumption, placing one Blueberries into any crafting slot produces one Blue Dye.
Maple foliage drops sweet fruit when harvested. Breaking Fulvous Maple Leaves, Mikado Maple Leaves, Sap Maple Leaves, or Vermilion Maple Leaves drops edible Apricot items alongside maple saplings.

Crafting Decorative Leaf Piles

Promenade allows players to compact harvested tree leaves into flat ground-covering foliage piles:

Placing two matching leaf blocks horizontally in a crafting grid crafts two leaf piles:
- Two Acacia Leaves craft two Acacia Leaf Pile.
- Two Birch Leaves craft two Birch Leaf Pile.
- Two Dark Oak Leaves craft two Dark Oak Leaf Pile.
- Two Jungle Leaves craft two Jungle Leaf Pile.
- Two Mangrove Leaves craft two Mangrove Leaf Pile.
- Two Azalea Leaves craft two Azalea Leaf Pile.
- Two Flowering Azalea Leaves craft two Flowering Azalea Leaf Pile.
- Two Blush Sakura Blossoms craft two Blush Sakura Blossom Pile.
- Two Cotton Sakura Blossoms craft two Cotton Sakura Blossom Pile.
- Two Fulvous Maple Leaves craft two Fulvous Maple Leaf Pile.

These piles can be layered beneath trees or along paths to emulate natural autumn leaf shedding.

Crafting Snowy Foliage

In cold climates, players can craft snow-covered foliage blocks directly:

Combining one Snow layer with one Oak Leaves crafts one Snowy Oak Leaves.
Combining one Snow with one Birch Leaves crafts one Snowy Birch Leaves.
Combining one Snow with one Spruce Leaves crafts one Snowy Spruce Leaves.
Combining one Snow with one Fulvous Maple Leaves crafts one Snowy Fulvous Maple Leaves.
