Fill your garden with lots of new crops as Grow a Garden’s Summer Update is finally up.
Welcomed by over 20 million concurrent players, the Summer Update in Grow a Garden introduced a fresh batch of seasonal seeds available only during the hot months.
The update also added a new event called the Summer Harvest, where players can submit new crops to earn exciting rewards.
This post will provide all the details you need to know in case you missed the opening of the Summer Update, including several admin weather events that you should look out for.
The Summer Harvest Event
The Queen Bee and Bizzy Bear NPCs at the center of the map have now been replaced by a girl named Georgia together with a two-wheeled cart. The Summer Harvest Event starts every 50 minutes, or once the countdown timer above the cart reaches 0.
To participate in the Summer Harvest Event, you must submit summer crops to the cart. Summer crops can be anything from the new seeds added after the update. Please refer to the next section.
You will earn harvest points the more summer crops you submit, which unlock specific rewards like sprinklers, eggs, seed packs, cosmetic crates, and pets after the event’s time limit. You can advance faster into the rewards tier if your friends join the event with you!

More Cosmetics, game fixes, and QoL improvements
The Summer Update also introduced a massive list of new cosmetics that you can occasionally see in stock at the Cosmetics/Crafting Shop. Additionally, Jandel also addressed some performance issues that should no longer affect the players after the update.
Since the Summer Update, you can still make good use of your Pollinated plants, as the Honey Combpressor from the Bizzy Bees Update is still available right beside the Cosmetics/Crafting Shop.
Bizzy Bear’s crafting tables also remained in the game, allowing you to continue obtaining useful craftables like Choc Sprinklers, Anti-Bee Eggs, and other Honey-themed seeds.
