Grow a Garden Garden Coin Shop Guide – How to Get and Best Items to Buy

The Fairy update in Grow a Garden introduced a brand-new feature called the Garden Coin Shop, tied to the game’s ascension (or rebirth) mechanic. This shop offers powerful upgrades and inventory expansions that can make your farming experience a lot smoother. But how do you get Garden Coins, and which items are worth buying first? Let’s break it all down.

How to Get Garden Coins Grow a Garden

To earn Garden Coins, you need to ascend your garden. This process is done through the Garden Ascension NPC, located to the right of the Sell shop in the lobby.

Here’s how it works:

1. Interact with the NPC and choose “I want to Ascend.”
2. Prepare the required resources: A fruit with a specific mutation. A large amount of Sheckles (for example, the first ascension costs 1 Trillion Sheckles and an Elder Strawberry with Wet Aurora mutation).
3. Confirm the process to ascend.

Every successful ascension rewards you with 10 Garden Coins. Keep in mind that ascension resets your Sheckles, so spend wisely before confirming.

Where to Find the Garden Coin Shop

The Garden Coin Shop can be accessed at the same NPC where you ascend. Just:

• Walk over to the Garden Ascension station in the lobby.
• Press E to interact.
• Choose the option “What are you selling?” to open the shop menu.

Best Items to Buy in the Garden Coin Shop

Since Garden Coins are not easy to get, you’ll want to prioritize wisely. Here are the upgrades most players should focus on first:

• Save Slot Upgrade (50 Coins): A must-have if your garden feels crowded and you want more space.
• Pet Inventory Upgrade (20 Coins): Perfect if you’re often running out of pet storage or missing out on pet gifts.
• Egg Capacity Upgrade (20 Coins): Great for hatching multiple eggs at the same time and speeding up your farm progress.

The Cosmetic and Plant Inventory Upgrades are also useful, but they’re more of a quality-of-life choice if you’re not struggling with space.

The Garden Coin Shop is one of the most impactful additions in Grow a Garden’s Fairy update. While earning Garden Coins takes time and resources through ascension, the upgrades you can buy are permanent and highly valuable.

If you’re aiming for efficiency, prioritize the Save Slot Upgrade and then expand your Pet or Egg capacity depending on your playstyle. With the right choices, the Garden Coin Shop can make your progression in Grow a Garden much smoother.
