Yeah I have been playing a lot. I can not get into brownie farm yet either.
I think you have to get your hammer up to level three in order to break it. you do not have to have a special hammer or anything like that My hammer right now is at level 2. However if you do not have it open be the time the animal festival (which is on the 28 of spring), it will open up automatically for you (so they say online)
I am on day 19 of Spring. I had the flower festival and that was pretty cool. I got the TV, and I got the property on the mountain top, which one did you get? I went into the mine, I got to level 29 but could not get to level 30, there is a power berry on level 30 if you can get there. On the 22 of spring there is a flea market at the town square so be sure to check that out. Also I unlocked the lady that works at the blacksmith, she can turn the wonderfuls I find into gems.
I am thinking about marring up Kathy (we get her after we unlock brownie farm, but we did meet her once already) or I may marry Selena the dancer (you meet her at the flower festival if you have not seen her yet). Let me know who you are going to marry and I will tell you her birthday and what she likes and dislikes.
Also did you see all of the animals in the wild. Did you know that they will become your pets after you get them up to three hearts! Yeah you can have a crap load of pets. Dogs, cats, baby boars and a lot more.
Also keep in mind that there are only 28 days in every month in this game. Not 30, so try and plant your crops sooner. Remember if you need to know anything let me know! At first I didn't like the camera angle in the game, but now I kind of like it. Also I was mad at first because time kept moving inside, but it does not bother me anymore.
The more I play this game, the more I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!
