Marnie runs Marnie's Ranch in Cindersap Forest, just south of the farm, where she sells livestock and everything needed to care for it. Her shop is where every chicken, cow, goat, sheep, duck, rabbit and pig on the farm begins, along with Hay, Heaters, the Milk Pail and the Shears. She shares her home with her niece Jas and her nephew Shane. Warm, chatty and devoted to her animals, she is one of the friendliest neighbours the farmer has. Her story centres on a secret romance with Mayor Lewis, and her heart events are short and light, with two recipes along the way.
Lore
Marnie loves animals above almost anything else. She says animals are innocent and sweet, and asks who would look after them if she did not. She even hopes her chickens are not too upset when she takes their eggs. She tells the farmer that taking care of animals is easy, as long as they are never forgotten.
She also needs people around her. She explains that animals are great company, but she spends most evenings at the Stardrop Saloon to be with friends. She would be lonely if Shane ever moved out, and she is glad of the help he gives her with the chickens.
Her love life is a running joke in town. At the Flower Dance she sighs that love is in the air and she is still single. Elsewhere she giggles that someone in town has taken a liking to her. At higher friendship she wonders aloud whether Mr. Lewis gets lonely in his big, empty house.
She is a little wary of the Wizard's Tower west of her ranch. She once heard a terrible, otherworldly noise from inside and advises the farmer to keep away.
Schedule
On most days Marnie stands behind the counter of her shop from nine in the morning until four in the afternoon. After closing she usually walks to the Stardrop Saloon and stays until late in the evening.
On Mondays she leaves early to shop at Pierre's General Store and is back home in the afternoon. On Tuesdays she joins the exercise class at Pierre's with Caroline, Jodi, Emily and Robin, then chats with the other women afterwards. The ranch building stays open on those two days, but shopping has to wait until she is back at the counter.
She takes Jas to Harvey's Clinic for a check-up in Winter and has her own visit in Fall. On a Green Rain day she stays in her kitchen all day.
Relationships
Marnie lives at the ranch with her niece Jas and her nephew Shane. She raises Jas and relies on Shane's help around the ranch.
Her closest bond is with Mayor Lewis. The two are secretly dating, and Lewis visits the ranch on "business" from time to time. They are often seen drinking together at the Saloon. His lost purple shorts turn up on the floor of her bedroom during his Mayor's Shorts quest.
She is also part of the Tuesday exercise group at Pierre's with Caroline, Jodi, Emily and Robin.
Gifts
Marnie loves Diamond, Farmer's Lunch, Pink Cake and Pumpkin Pie, along with every universal love. Farmer's Lunch is the easiest to make early, since cooking just an Omelet with a Parsnip makes it. Pumpkin Pie suits a Fall farm with animals, because it uses Milk alongside the Pumpkin. Diamonds appear deeper in The Mines and make a quick gift once found.
She likes every universal like, all eggs except the Void Egg and all Milk. That makes a fresh egg or a bottle of milk from the farm a cheap and steady gift, which suits a rancher. She also likes Quartz and the Stardew Valley Almanac.
She hates Clay and Holly, along with the universal hates. Clay is the trap, because it turns up constantly while tilling the farm. She dislikes Salmonberry, Seaweed and Wild Horseradish. Her birthday falls in Fall, when gifts count eight times as much.
At the Movie Theater she loves The Miracle At Coldstar Ranch and likes every other film. Her favourite snacks are Ice Cream Sandwich and Stardrop Sorbet.
These gifts are the ones this villager loves most.

Heart Events
At any friendship above zero, Marnie may mail a bundle of Hay as thanks for being a good neighbour. The chance rises as friendship grows.
At three hearts, Marnie meets the farmer outside the Farmhouse one morning. She is trying to train her goats to say "hello", but they only cooperate for their favourite treat, a Cave Carrot. Bringing one to the ranch during the day plays a short scene with the goats. Around the same point she mails her recipe for Pale Broth.
At six hearts, a sunny evening in town reveals Marnie and Lewis by the river behind his house. Marnie wants their romance to be public, but Lewis worries about his authority, so she agrees to keep it quiet. When the farmer is spotted, the answer affects Lewis's friendship only.
At seven hearts, she mails the recipe for Rhubarb Pie.
Notes
In Fall, Marnie writes to ask for a bunch of Amaranth as a treat for her cows. The Cow's Delight quest pays a gold reward and a full heart of friendship. She may also post requests on the Help Wanted board outside Pierre's General Store, which pay three times the item's base price.
