While these adorable multicolored spirits are initially only seen in the Community Center,players can later bring the Junimos back to the farm by befriending the Wizardand building them a home. By unlocking the Junimo Hut, players can work with Junimos, who will harvest crops all over the farm every day before returning to their homes.
While seeing adorable forest spirits wandering around the farm is delightful enough, onesecret note inStardew Valleyactually hints at a way to modify Junimos’ appearance. By utilizing some of the most colorful items in the game,players can change their Junimos’ to whatever their favorite color is. In fact, players can even use one of the rarest items in the game just for their Junimos.

A Rainbow Of Color Choices
There are over twenty color options for the Junimos based on what gem is placed in their hut. Unfortunately,not all minerals provide a different color, so there are some limitations on what shade a Junimo will take. For example, the ruby, baryte, helvite, and fire quartz minerals will all provide the same shade of apple red. Some colors can only be acquired through one gemstone, as emeralds and opals each provide a unique shade.
