These are all of the materials that The Herta needs for her Ascension. All of these materials can be pre-farmed as of Honkai Star Rail version 2.7.
If you have not yet unlocked the farming node for Dream Fridge, it can be accessed via the Interastral Peace Guide using the "Temporary Early Access" feature. This feature will only be available while The Herta's banner is ongoing, however.

Dream Fridge location
The Dream Fridge is the Herta Ascension Material you really need to farm. You can do this in the "Stagnant Shadow: Shape of Nectar" in The Reverie (Dreamscape), Penacony.
If you don't have this unlocked, either progress in the main story or wait for The Herta's banner for the Temporary Early Access feature to kick in.
Alternatively, you can use the Omni-Synthesizer - Materials Exchange to acquire this material.
Using the Omni Synthesizer has a limit of 20 exchanges for the Dream Fridge per week. It requires two of a different Ascension material for one Dream Fridge.
