Reeds grow near the shore all year round and yield about 1-2 straw per harvest. Directly north of the initial town of Gostovia, you will find plenty of reeds on the shore to build your first simple little house.

This is how you farm straw: Another method to get enough straw later in the game is the direct cultivation and harvesting of:

  • Flax
  • Oats
  • Rye
  • Wheat

If you thresh the harvest in the barn, you also produce straw as a by-product by making Flax Stalks, Oat Grains, Rye Grains and Wheat Grains. However, this process is only worthwhile in bulk, as the fields can only be harvested once a year. So you'd better grow a few more fields.
