The Hidden garden farm is a personal farm found on the west side of Dierdre's Steps (the same area where the Hidden Garden jumping puzzle takes place) in Mount Maelstrom.

Getting there[edit]

Primary article: Dierdre's Steps#Getting there

Defeat one of the keepers to open a portal to Dierdre's Steps. Each portal stays open for a short time and takes about 15 minutes to reset.

Harvesting[edit]

In order to unlock the farm, the collection Kudzu III: Leaf of Kudzu must be completed. Once completed the farm can be harvested once a day per account. The farm contains 2-3 of the various plants planted in the collection.

Primordial Orchid nodes are separately unlocked by completing A Henge Away from Home collection step - Dierdre's Orchard.

Notes[edit]

Any node in the garden disappears as soon as the player interacts with it, rather than after resources are gathered from it. When interacting while no harvesting sickle or logging axe is equipped, or if the gathering action is interrupted, the node will still disappear. The player will need to go through the character selection screen or to switch map to make it appear again.
The butternut squash nodes only grant one item upon harvest, while all other plant nodes grant three.
  • Gathering nodes are not typical plant nodes, as they return 3 items per harvest and have other oddities.
  • There is a total of 35 nodes in a tightly-packed area. If you have completed Kudzu collection, it is highly advised to park one character there for daily gathering.
  • Primordial orchid nodes in the garden don't get extra gathering strikes.
  • Gathering nodes do count towards Daily Maguuma Jungle Forager.
  • Plant nodes of the same type in the garden act as node farms, meaning that the last node of each type cannot grant extra gathering strikes. For example, only two strawberries nodes out of three can grant extra strikes.
