How To 

Stardew Valley – Pam Guide

Pam is the local bus driver but since the local bus has broken down Pam is out of work but fret not, you can totally repair the bus and get Pam her job back. All you need to do is complete the Community Center bundle for the bus repair or if you go the Joja Mart route you can just buy the bus repair for gold. Pam is also the mother of Penny who is one of the 12 people that you can marry in the game. Pam is also a connoisseur of alcohol and really likes to taste the local brews.

Pam’s Schedule:
If you haven’t repaired the bus yet you’ll find Pam in her trailer most of the time. She goes to the Saloon in the evenings and spends time with her best friend Gus who is the owner of the Saloon. If you have repaired the bus, you can find her next to the bus from 10:10 am to 5:00 pm. She will take you to Calico desert and the time does not matter once you are in the desert. You can stay as long as you like granted you get home before 2:00 am as you will pass out from sleep at that time.

Gifts for Pam:
With just two gifts per week, you can become friends with Pam for sure! However, you need to be careful of what you gift to Pam since there are some things she absolutely hates. Steer clear from Holly, Octopus, and Squid; Pam hates these. Also avoid giving her Eggs, Quartz, and Wild Horseradish.

Gifting her every item most villagers love will also be enough to impress her. Moreover, she is neutral to items like Purple Mushroom, Leek, Chanterelle, Snow Yam, Winter Root, Common Mushroom, Dandelion, Hazelnut, and Morel. When it comes to Pam, birthday gifts are quite important since they multiply the friendship by 8. So, mark Spring 18th as Pam’s birthday and pick out the perfect gift!

With Pam, you have a chance to get your hands on rewarding recipes.

You can also get another recipe with the seven-heart event. The recipe is of Stuffing that gives you 76 health points, 170 energy points, and boosts defense by 2 points for five minutes and thirty-five seconds.
Quests with Pam:
There aren’t too many quests involving Pam, but there are three you must know. One is where Pam will request for Pale Ale on Summer 14th. Completing the quest will give you a Friendship heart and 350 gold. Then, in your second year, she will ask for a battery pack on fall 19th and doing so will get you another Friendship heart and 400 gold. Lastly, sometimes Pam also leaves requests on the ‘Help Wanted’ board and completing these get you 150 Friendship points and three times more gold than the regular value.
All in all, becoming friends with Pam and completing her requests is quite rewarding. Plus, become friends with her doesn’t take much at all!
