More Hay
When you want to sell a lot of hay to Van for money, keep 99 hay in the storage in the tool shed so you can just get that after you sell whatever is in your sack.
More Money From Better Items
When you are selling expensive items to Van, such as golden wool or sharsharks, tell him you won't sell it after he tells you how much he will pay and then he will make a better offer. Doing this will get you 50% more money than you normally would.
Pushing
If you are having trouble pushing animals to get them where you want them, close to the bath tub for instance, you have to push them from behind. Then you have to push them from the side to aim them, then push from behind again.
Whistling
If you push in the right trigger (on the top of the controller and not "z") you will whistle for your animals. If you just press it once and you are at your farm, your dog will come to you. If you press it a couple of times, like tapping without letting go, your horse will come to you, and she (assuming that your horse is a girl) doesn't have to be outside.
Selling Items
You can sell items by going to the spot where Van sells stuff. Van will buy anything you have. But make sure you get there before he does or he'll open his shop and you can't sell right then. But remember that you can give discounts to your friends and your girlfriend. And you can sell stuff at night sometimes lots of people come.
Change weather
If it is raining or there is a hurricane, enter the mine and dig. After you are done, the rain or hurricane will be over.
Goat
Buy it from Van for 4,000G whenever he has his shop open during Spring.
Chase Away Rain and Hurricanes
When it's stormy outside and you want to stop the rain, visit a mine and do some digging. As you emerge from the mine the rain will stop.
Change chicken gender
Note: This trick only works for a hatching chicken. Do not save the game until you get the gender of chicken that you want. After the chick hatches, reset or turn off the Gamecube. The chick might change to male or female. Note: This may require a few attempts.

Give him two different seeds and he'll mix them together to make a new hybrid crop. After this stage you can again mix crops that have already been mixed to make a second generation hybrid crop. These are called rare crops or rare trees.

Archeology
Digging for treasure at the excavation site is another way to make some extra money. Catch Carter between 9:00am and 5:00pm to start digging. Go over each square a few times to find some treasure. At the end of each digging day Carter will look over what you've found. He'll swipe anything that he thinks is valuable and leave you with the rest. You can either sell your treasure to Van, sell it yourself, or give it away. Muffy really likes shiny things.

The Milking room makes milking so much easier, it's automatic! You'll need to show your cows where to go by pushing them into the building a few times and from then on they will go in themselves to be milked.

Seed Hybrids
When you start the game you'll have to buy all your seeds from Vesta, Marlin or Celia. Once you raise enough money and Takakura offers it to you, you can buy the Seed Maker for 6,000G using the ledger in the food storage building. When Takakura delivers it he will put it in the tool shed. Use your crops to make seeds from. You can either replant these seeds or sell them for a nice profit.

More Easy money
Buy a Seed Mixer and put in any of the fruit from tree crops. Sell the seeds instead of the fruit to make lots more money. Example: grapes sell for like 35g each but the seeds are 450g each.
Quick Cash
If you are having trouble making money, gather up all of your fodder. Fodder sells for 10 gold a piece and one sell of 99 pieces will get you 990 gold.
Win Celia's Heart
Give Celia a flower every day, and buy seeds from her occassionally. Her diary tells you how she likes you--if it's red, she digs you. You can view her diary on her bed. To marry Celia just give her flowers every day and her hearts will raise quickly. When they are at 4 hearts, give her the blue feather, what you receive from the harvest sprites in your first summer. Do the same for Muffy... Nami is a bit harder. First make the other 2 girls dislike you as much as possible, then give her lots of stuff from carters excavation site and she likes. Only trick blue flowers that you find in fall, if you don't marry Nami she will leave town, but if you marry her all 3 girls stay.

Note: Van's shop is only open on the 3 and 8 of each month.
