Disney Dreamlight Valley is known for its cozy atmosphere and familiar faces. The beloved Disney characters have quests you can complete to help make the valley feel like home again after the Forgetting, ranging from simple fetch quests to longer and more detailed story-related quests. A Warm Welcome is a friendship quest with Goofy, and it's pretty simple.

Goofy wants to do something fun together, which means gathering ingredients and cooking some delicious food. While cooking can be a complex mechanic, Goofy won't ask for much. All you need to do is talk to him, gather some ingredients, and make a meal using those ingredients to complete the quest.

How To Unlock The A Warm Welcome Friendship Quest

After meeting the prerequisites, head over to Goofy to start the quest. He's usually strolling in the Plaza or fishing in the Peaceful Meadows. If you can't find him, try looking inside his house. He sometimes appears when you leave, making it easy to talk to him. Once you've found him, the real magic begins.

Every character has a unique schedule, so it's possible Goofy might be asleep. You can always check back later or explore the valley until he's out and about again.

As you talk with Goofy, he'll tell you he wants to cook with you. He'll ask if you want to join, like the gentleman he is, and you can accept his invitation by saying, "Sure, I'll help with cooking!" You can tell Goofy you've never cooked anything before, and he doesn't mind. Everyone in the valley is friendly and wants to make happy memories together.

Having decided to move forward, Goofy asks if you can gather the ingredients. For this quest, you'll need to gather three Basil and three Oregano to start cooking. Both ingredients are herbs that are easy to find if you know where to look.

Where To Find Basil And Oregano

In Dreamlight Valley, Basil is common in the Peaceful Meadows area. It grows regularly and can be recognized by its rich green color and the upset dirt around it. The plant will spawn randomly in open spaces across the Peaceful Meadows, so keep an eye out for more in case you've already plucked and used a fair portion earlier. Make sure to gather three total!

If you can't find the ingredients, try waiting a few minutes. Herbs and spices will respawn sooner than later, making it easy to stock up on them in the future.

While Basil can be found in the Peaceful Meadows, Oregano prefers to spawn exclusively in the Plaza. Keep your eyes open for the light green plant as it sprouts through the ground. Like basil, it will spawn randomly in open areas, and you'll need three of them as well to proceed to the next part of the quest: cooking!

How To Cook A Meal Together

Once you've gathered your ingredients, talk to Goofy again. He'll let you know that it's cooking time. Head back to your house to use your stove (or enter Goofy's home to use his) and start cooking. When the list of ingredients comes up, you might wonder what recipe to make.

You can make something simple with only the spices you just gathered, or you can make something more elaborate like Margherita Pizza.

There's no need to worry here: Goofy will love whatever you make. He's just happy to spend time with you.

Make sure your recipe includes at least one Basil or Oregano before cooking, and make sure you have enough coal to start cooking. Once you've finished in the kitchen, return to Goofy with your meal. You'll complete the quest, earn friendship with this delightful toon, and create a wonderful memory in the kitchen.
