What’s New in the Grow a Garden Easter Event 2026?

This update was originally scheduled for March 28, but was delayed to April 4 so the Community Garden Event could release first. The wait was worth it β€” here’s what’s inside:

Easter Garden Plot (Exclusive)

Every player now has a dedicated lilac-colored Easter Garden slot in their plot selector. All new Easter seeds can only be planted here. This is a first for the game β€” a fully exclusive event garden.

How the Easter Event Works?

  1. Get Easter Seeds β€” Buy them from the Easter Shop using Choc Coins, or earn Seed Packs by completing quests.
  2. Plant in Easter Garden β€” Grow your crops in the exclusive garden slot.
  3. Submit Plants to NPC β€” The Venus Fly Trap NPC requests plants of a specific size. Fill the 50-plant progress bar to unlock Easter Seed Packs and Exotic Easter Seed Packs.
  4. Sell at Easter Sell Shop β€” Trade your Easter-mutated crops for Choc Coins (the new event currency).
  5. Egg Hunt β€” During timed windows, Easter Eggs scatter across the map. Collect and hand them in for bonus rewards.
  6. Golden Egg Shop β€” Spend Choc Coins here for exclusive Easter pets.

New Easter Seeds

  • Candy Carrot
  • Gummy Cactus
  • Gumball Plant
  • Sugar Melon
  • Egg Fruit (Prismatic)
  • Chocolate Cosmos

New Pets & Shop Items

The Easter Shop sells two Mythical shop pets:

  • Hootsie Roll β€” Grants bonus XP/s to all Easter-type pets and all garden pets.
  • Marshmallow Lamb β€” Grants bonus XP or advances ability cooldown for garden pets.

The Golden Egg contains four exclusive Easter pets purchasable with Choc Coins.

I’ve been playing GAG since its early days, and the Golden Egg shop reminds me of the Bird’s Egg system β€” grab the rarest pet early before the economy inflates.

Pro Tips for the Easter Event

  • Prioritize the plant submission quest first β€” completing 50 submissions unlocks Exotic Easter Seed Packs fast.
  • Stack Choc Coins before spending β€” Golden Egg pets are limited, so save currency for those first.
  • Join a Grow a Garden Discord for real-time egg hunt alerts β€” timed egg hunts can appear without warning.
  • Check your Tree Frog pet β€” growth-boost pets speed up Easter crop cycles significantly.
