I'm on PC, and when I try to mine the stone quarry at the house near Falkreath it won't activate.
Anyone else experiencing problems? Is there a way to fix it? Serana can use the quarry, and Hearthfire is installed.

4Do you have the Unofficial Hearthfire Patch installed? – SevenSidedDie Nov 12 '13 at 0:41

Do you have a pickaxe? You need a pickaxe in your inventory to mine, but NPCs do not. You can also grab a pickaxe and swing at it manually. Manual mining is usually faster, and if you have related perks and shouts, it goes MUCH faster. – Nelson Jan 29 '16 at 4:09
Download the Unofficial Hearthfire Patch to fix such problems in Hearthfire like this.

Here are my suggestions:
- Load an older save if possible.
- Get a housecarl (only possible if you finished the entrance/cottage part) and you can pay her to buy resources.
- There are rarely random quarries in the wilderness (I've only seen one though in Rorrikstead).
- Buy another plot of land and use its quarry.
i had the same problem, so i just did it manually by hitting the quarry with the pickaxe equipped.

That doesn't make sense. If it does, the problem the OP has is that it doesn't work. – Joachim May 2 '20 at 18:43

@Joachim as far as i remember, there are two ways to use the quarries. one is the interact button, the second is manually equipping a pickax and "attacking" it – Dragonrage♦ May 2 '20 at 19:39
