If you’re wondering whether Grow a Garden features a traveling shop or merchant that offers limited-time items, rare seeds, or exclusive deals, you’re not alone. Many players are on the lookout for special vendors that can give their garden a boost and provide access to items not found in the standard Seed Shop or daily rewards.
Here’s everything you need to know about traveling merchants and special shops in Grow a Garden.
Does Grow a Garden Have a Traveling Merchant?
As of now, Grow a Garden does not feature a traditional traveling shop or merchant that appears periodically or moves between locations like in some other farming games. So, currently, you won’t find any mobile or pop-up vendors that offer exclusive seeds, or trade deals in a rotating inventory.
Where to Find Rare or Limited-Time Items Instead
While there is no official traveling merchant in the game, there are other ways to get special or hard-to-find items, including:
- Basic and Premium Seed Packs
These seed packs often include rare plants (like Durian or Lotus) that are not available in the Seed Shop. If you’re looking for variety or unique plants, opening these packs is your best bet. - Limited-Time Events
Occasional in-game events introduce exclusive plants, or gear. Recently, the Easter update provided a special Chocolate Sprinkler that granted the Choc mutation and various unique crops like Red Lollipop, Candy Blossom, and more.- These are time-sensitive and may resemble the role a traveling merchant would serve by offering unique items for a limited period. At the time of writing, the event that’s going on is ‘Jim the Angry plant’, which also has a bunch of unique crops up for grabs.
Could a Traveling Merchant Be Added in the Future?
The concept of a traveling shop is popular in farming and simulation games, and it could be a great addition to Grow a Garden in future updates. Players often suggest this feature in community forums, hoping for:
- Rotating inventory with rare or exclusive seeds
- Trade options using different in-game currencies
- Limited-time cosmetic items or crop boosts
For now, though, the game does not include such a feature. For more information about Grow a Garden, be sure to check out our guides.
