Queen Bee and Swarm event in Grow a Garden

During the Queen Bee event in Grow a Garden, you’ll find that a Queen Bee has taken up residence in the land between the garden plot. Talking to her will allow you to exchange Honey for a selection of rewards in the Honey Shop.

We’ve got guides on how to get Honey and the Pollinated mutation to help you earn all of the Queen Bee’s rewards.

Alongside the Queen Bee’s honey exchange, there’s the Swarm event. This event sees bees fly out across the gardens to give certain fruits the Pollinated mutation. The Swarm event occurs on the hour every hour and there’s a timer counting down to the next one to the left of the Queen Bee.

The Queen Bee event is running until Saturday 7th June at 11am (BST) in Grow a Garden, so you have a full week to earn her rewards.
