What is Straw in Enshrouded
Straw is a common resource in Enshrouded that is required to craft multiple useful items. You can use this resource to craft the Honey Beehive and Comfort 5+ Beds. Straw seems to be an easy-to-get type of item but in reality, it is actually a rather difficult resource to locate. The game offers only one major location to start with. This resource doesn’t appear on its own in the open world. However, if you need more straw, you can either come back to the Bounty Barn or create your own fields of wheat.
Where to Find Straw in Enshrouded
You can find Straw and Wheat in Bounty Barn in Nomad Highlands. It’s an abandoned farm in the desert directly east of the pillars of Creation and next to the Elixil well in Nomad Highlands. However, passing pillars of creation and entering the desert requires a minimum flame altar at level 4. Check the map below for reference on where exactly Bounty Barn is located.

To get to the Straw, you must collect wheat, the yellow straws growing on abandoned fields surrounding Bounty Barn. You don’t need any tools; you can pick it up with your hands. Press the “E” default button to gather. Around this abandoned barn and farm are other crops worth collecting, so ensure you have enough space in your inventory when heading there. You will also find Bell Peppers and Sage Plants there.
Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that alongside straw, you will also collect wheat grains from wheat.
