The first time you loot it you will receive a Fishing Charm.
The Mountains
There are many chests to be found in the Mountain Biome. Some have thorn barricades guarding them, and others require searching for cave entrances. All of them are reachable without a broom provided you have at least a fine quality axe, or a potion to destroy the thorn barriers!

3. This chest is located way up top in the area with the glowing trees and plants past the thorn barrier. You need a fine axe to chop them down, and it will take about 60 swings, or you can use a Throwable Thorns Burner potion (found in random breakable chests). Be ready to use your net as there is a spider nest just past the barrier. This chest can only be opened during a Waxing Crescent Moon. The first time you open it you will find a Farmer Potion.

The Desert
The chests of the Desert Biome are the hardest chests to get as you will need a broom to access at least two of them. Thorny Barriers also can prevent you from looting your goodies so make sure your axe is of at least fine quality, or that you have a few Throwable Thorns Burner potions with you to make your life easier!
