Solving the stone carving's craving begins with the Traveling Cart. Driven by an enigmatic merchant accompanied by a pig wearing a fez, the cart appears in Cindersap Forest strictly on Fridays and Sundays between 6:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

During Spring and Summer, the merchant stocks an item titled simply as Rare Seed. The seed appears in stock as a guaranteed listing during these seasons for 1,000g, though it occasionally rolls as an erratic, random stock item for prices between 600g and 1,000g.

Smart planning dictates purchasing at least one Rare Seed before the first day of Fall. Running short on cash during Year 1 can make 1,000g feel steep, but delaying the purchase pushes completion of the puzzle into Year 2 unless you have already constructed a functioning Greenhouse.
