If you want to make the most out of the Chubby Chipmunk Event, don’t forget to buy Grow A Garden pets to help you gather resources faster and explore new ways to earn rewards. Pets not only add charm to your garden but also make it easier to collect event items like Nutty Chests and Hazelnut seeds.
How to Get Nutty Chests
To obtain Nutty Chests, you’ll need to participate in the Chubby Chipmunk Event. This event revolves around taking care of a Chubby Chipmunk pet, which you can get for free from the center of the island.
Here’s how to farm for Nutty Chests effectively:
- Feed Your Chubby Chipmunk:
Each time your chipmunk eats a fruit, it will spawn an acorn somewhere on the island.- These acorns have a low chance to give you a Nutty Chest, and a smaller chance to drop two.
- Increase Your Chipmunk’s Weight:
As your pet gains weight, you’ll unlock milestone rewards.- Some of these rewards include Nutty Chests, which can contain Hazelnut seeds.
- You can claim these at the Unclaimed Rewards sign during the event.
Tips for Growing Hazelnut
- Multi-Harvest Crop: Once planted, the Hazelnut will continue to produce nuts over time. This makes it a great long-term crop for consistent profit.
- No Lucky Harvest Seeds: Since it’s an event-exclusive plant, you can’t get extra seeds from lucky harvests.
- Pets Can’t Find It: Pets like the Red Fox or Dog cannot obtain Hazelnut seeds — event seeds are excluded from their abilities.
- Save Your Chests: If you plan to stockpile seeds, open your Nutty Chests during the event, as they may be removed afterward.
The Hazelnut is a valuable and visually unique crop that represents the cozy spirit of the Chubby Chipmunk Event. Though it’s not the rarest seed, its multi-harvest ability and solid value make it worth collecting and growing for both new and veteran gardeners alike.
