Processing Guide
Village in the Shade Silkworm Box Guide
The Silkworm Box turns Mulberry Leaves into Raw Silk. Unlock its Shrine skill during the third repair stage, craft the box at a Workbench with 60 Wood and 20 Bamboo, then wait two days for processing. Raw Silk can later continue into Silk with the Loom.
The short version
Leaf in. Raw Silk out.
The two items are separate. Mulberry Fruit is not the Silkworm Box input, and Raw Silk is not the same item as Silk.

How to Get Mulberry Leaves
Mulberry is treated as a field-grown shrub record, not one of the site's Fruit Tree records.
Sapling source
Sazanka's General Store
Price
¥2,000
Planting
Year-round
Harvest
Summer
Initial growth
10 days
Watering
Required
The current source records a 2-day regrowth value and a harvest quantity of 2 for the leaf and fruit records. It does not establish a universal clearance rule, so this guide does not borrow one from Pear or another Fruit Tree.
Classification note
Not a Fruit Tree record
Mulberry produces both Mulberry Leaves and Mulberry Fruit, but the current research classifies it as a low shrub or field-grown item rather than one of the 13 Fruit Tree records.
Mulberry Fruit is a separate product and is not the Silkworm Box input.
See the separate Fruit Trees authority →Processing
How to Make Raw Silk
Put the correct part of the Mulberry harvest into the box, then allow the full cycle to finish.
01
Load Mulberry Leaf
The process input is Mulberry Leaf ×1. Mulberry Fruit is not interchangeable with it.
02
Wait two days
The verified processing time belongs to Mulberry Leaf → Raw Silk. Exact clock timing and collection-day semantics are not separately documented.
03
Collect Raw Silk
The source records a sell price of ¥125. Output quantity is not stated clearly enough to publish a ratio.
The current record does not show a separate Silkworm item requirement. The documented process recipe only names Mulberry Leaf as the input.

Troubleshooting
Why can't I craft the Silkworm Box?
Check the real unlock and material gates before looking for a hidden quest.
Shrine stage
Confirm the Shrine has reached Repair Stage 3. The skill is not a Stage 2 or Stage 4 unlock.
Skill learned
Reaching the stage is not the same as purchasing the Silkworm Box skill. Check the skill node itself.
Shrine resources
Have Rain Magatama ×2, Twin Magatama ×1, Child Magatama ×1 and Bronze Mirror ×1.
Workbench
The machine recipe requires a Workbench crafting station.
Wood
The verified recipe uses canonical Wood ×60, not Easy Wood.
Bamboo
The verified recipe uses Bamboo ×20.
Troubleshooting
Why isn't Raw Silk ready?
The two-day timer applies to the Leaf to Raw Silk stage.
The full timer has not finished
Raw Silk processing is listed as 2 days. Do not assign the Loom's 1-day record to this stage.
The box was not loaded
Check that Mulberry Leaf was actually placed in the Silkworm Box before waiting.
Output still needs collection
The current source does not document exact collection timing, so collect the completed output before troubleshooting seasons or weather.

Can I build multiple Silkworm Boxes?
The current source set does not verify a placement limit or maximum count, so this guide does not promise unlimited placement.
