Fischfest 2 Crab Locations (July 2026) Sandy Finn Quest Guide
Fischfest 2 just dropped in Fisch, and Sandy Finn’s quest is sending every player scrambling around the island hunting for…
The Monkey is one of the rarest companions you can add to your farm, and if you’ve spotted one swinging around the map, you’re probably wondering whether it’s worth your hard-earned Sheckles. This guide covers exactly what the Monkey does, how much it costs, where to find one, and whether it actually deserves a pet slot.
| Detail | Info |
|---|---|
| Rarity | Mythic |
| Obtain From | Random Map Spawn |
| Cost | 3,000,000 Sheckles |
| Ability | Auto-harvests ripe fruit |
| Stacks? | Yes, with multiple Monkeys |
The Monkey swings around your garden on its own and automatically collects ripe fruit, delivering it straight to your inventory without you lifting a finger. Equip it as an active pet and you’ll get this passive harvesting buff running in the background while you focus on planting, defending, or expanding your plot. If you stack multiple Monkeys, their buffs combine, so the auto-harvest triggers more often, which matters a lot on bigger farms with constant fruit ripening.
It’s a Mythic-rarity pet, distinct from gear or seeds, and it’s purely a quality-of-life companion rather than a money multiplier. It won’t speed up plant growth and it won’t boost your odds of landing a rare mutation — those jobs belong to other pets entirely.
There’s no shop where you can buy a Monkey on demand. It only becomes available through a random map spawn, appearing unpredictably around the farm area. When one shows up, walk up to it and purchase it for 3,000,000 Sheckles to add it to your collection.
You can also get a small chance at one through Guild event eggs, but the map spawn is the more reliable route if you’re actively farming Sheckles. Because spawns are rare and timed, the pet vanishes if nobody buys it before the timer runs out — so keep your Sheckle stash topped up well in advance.
Honestly, it’s a closer call than the rarity suggests. Manual harvesting in Grow a Garden 2 is already fast, so the time the Monkey saves you is fairly small unless your garden is large enough that fruit is constantly ripening across multiple plots. On a sprawling, high-output farm, a passive collector genuinely saves real effort.
There’s a downside too: the Monkey grabs ripe fruit indiscriminately, which can be annoying if you’re deliberately letting a crop grow bigger or holding out for a specific mutation. If you’re a min-maxer chasing perfect harvests, an unsupervised collector can work against your plans.
For PvP-focused setups, a pet like the Raccoon brings more aggressive value through its stealing mechanic, so weigh your playstyle before committing 3M Sheckles here.

No. The Monkey only auto-harvests ripe fruit — it doesn’t affect plant growth speed or mutation odds.
Yes, equipping more than one Monkey increases how often the auto-harvest ability triggers.
It depends on your playstyle. The Monkey saves harvesting time on large farms, while the Raccoon is built for stealing and PvP-focused profit.
