Stardew Valley: What To Grow For The Ginger Island Frog
There's plenty to explore and lots to do on Ginger Island, the location added in Stardew Valley's 1.5 update. There's even a huge patch of land in the west area of the island where players can farm to their heart's content.
In the northeast corner of this island farm, once the farmhouse has been restored, players can wander into a cave that houses a mysterious creature. This giant frog seems to speak in riddles, and talks about wishing to see certain crops grown on the island once again. He'll reward the player handsomely if they can grant his wish — but what exactly does he want?
The Gourmand Frog's Requests
When the player speaks to the Gourmand Frog, he remarks on how the island used to be teeming with fresh food, and describe an item he wants to see growing. There are three items he wants to see again:
- Upon first meeting the frog, he will ask the player for "da pink thing…da juicy thing." Plant and grow at least one melon to fulfill his request.
- Next time, he'll ask for "da longo yellow ticklin' thing…da thing dat be wavin' in the wind." Wheat fits this description.
- Finally, the frog wants "da zesty ground-fruit, but make da breath stink." Garlic fits the bill here.
Players cannot complete all the quests at once; rather, they must collect the reward for one the frog will tell them what he wants to see next. Fortunately, since all crops can grow on Ginger Island in any season, there's no need to wait until the right time (unless the player needs to buy the proper seeds first).
Collecting Rewards
When the appropriate crop is fully grown, do not harvest it. Instead, head back into the Gourmand Frog's cave. When he asks if the player is growing "da thing" outside, respond "Yes." A cutscene will play in which the frog and the player admire the crop, and the frog reminisces on his youth. Despite remarking on wanting to eat them, the frog will not actually harvest any of the crops, and the player is free to collect them later.
After the cutscene, the player and the frog return to his cave. Here, the Gourmand Frog will reward the farmer with 5 Golden Walnuts. Completing all three crop requests thus nets 15 Golden Walnuts in total. Spend them on upgrades around the island!
