Stardew Valley Pelican Town shop opening hours

In Stardew Valley, you have to rely on several shops and NPCs to advance in your game. 

For instance, to start your farming empire, you will need to have seeds to plant. If you want to produce milk, you will have to buy a cow. 

Not all shops are open all the time though. Just like in real life, shops have opening hours and have days on which they're closed. Unlike real life, there isn't a directory your character can use to search online. 

That's why an overview of all shops and their opening times is a great resource to have on hand!

The Shops in Pelican Town

So let's start with the most important information: what are the opening times and closed days of every shop in the Stardew Valley village, Pelican Town.

Pierre's grocery store is the place to be if you want to buy seeds. Not only seeds, but also saplings, fertilizer and soil, some basic ingredients like sugar and oil and some recipes. You can also sell your own produce: vegetables, fruit and artisan goods.

Fun fact: Any products you sell can (and will) be sold to other villagers. When talking to villagers, you might be confronted by their opinions about the products they bought. 

Pierre's shop is closed on Wednesdays. If the Community Center has been restored, Pierre's General Store will also be open on Wednesdays. A good reason to spend some time on restoring the Community Center!
