Clay is a natural resource commonly found while tilling soil on the farm or digging up artifact spots. It can also be occasionally obtained from geodes and bags of mixed seeds, or as a drop from worms. This material is essential for crafting items such as retaining soil, quality retaining soil, and various recipes like the silo, garden pot, and brick floor. It is also required in some of the community center bundles.
