The Trader Event in Grow a Garden has launched with Update 1.33.0, and it brings a complete shift in how trading and rewards work in the game. Unlike previous events focused on crafting, farming, or seasonal items, this one revolves around trading requests where you exchange plants for random rewards from several loot pools.
Since the event is limited, knowing what to submit and which rewards are worth chasing will save a lot of time and resources. Below is a full breakdown of how the Trader Event works, all quest tiers, and the potential rewards available from each requirement. Also check out our Grow a Garden Codes for more rewards!
How the Trader Event Works
The event runs from November 22 to November 29, 2025. During this time, players can travel to Trader Island and interact with the request system. The mechanic is simple: Submit the required plants and get a reward based on the drop rate for that tier. Each tier has a different difficulty level, with rewards becoming rarer and more valuable the higher you go. Every submission gives only one roll, so choosing where to spend your plants matters.
Trading System and Reward Logic
Each submission uses a preset plant requirement. Once submitted, you’ll receive a reward from that tier’s percentage table. Rewards in higher tiers include:
- Eggs
- Sprinklers
- Crates
- Rare pets
- Leveling items
- Boosts
- Special cosmetics
The best items have lower chance percentages, so farming large amounts of crops before submitting makes the grind smoother.
Best Rewards to Target
If you’re farming strategically, these are the most valuable items from the event:
- Pack Mule
- Grandmaster Sprinkler
- Gem Egg
- Wild Pineapple
- Silver Lollipop
Players aiming for these should focus on submitting Tier 6 and above.

The Trader Event is built around resource management and RNG. The more plants you have stocked before submitting, the better your chances of securing rare items. If you’re planning to trade or build long-term value in Grow a Garden, using this event to stock rare pets, tools, and boosters is worth the grind. Take your time, submit smartly, and keep your high-tier crops ready for the final reward pool.
