Each island sells a different set of flower seeds, and some items are only available during a specific season.
Shop for clothes, furniture, and flower seeds that you don't have on your island. If they have visitors like Kicks and Saharah, then even better!
| Native Fruit | 100 Bells 500 Bells (on other islands with a different native fruit) |
|---|---|
| Foreign Fruit | 500 Bells |
Keep in mind that foreign fruit refers to any other type of fruit that is not native to your island.
If your friend's native fruit is different than yours, you can sell your native fruit to their island for 500 Bells each, instead of selling them for 100 Bells on your island.
How to Get All Fruits
If your friend's turnip prices are higher than yours, you can visit your island to sell your turnips! Make sure to send a tip as thank-you gift!

When more people water your flowers, the success rate of cross-pollination will be higher.
You can tell how many people have watered your flowers through the sparkle animation. When a lot of people water a flower, it'll have golden sparkles instead of silver.

| Normal Sparkles | Golden Sparkles |

Help beautify a friend's island, and get materials on the side! Pick up weeds that you can sell or use to craft items.
When Leif is visiting, you can sell weeds for 20 Bells each. That's twice the price at Nook's Cranny!

Complete the different kinds of fruits for your island by trading with your friends!
You can also trade other items such as recipes, DIY items, fossils, and artwork, if you have duplicates.
To "catalog items" means that you can pick up an item to put in your pocket, and it'll be added to your catalog.
This is beneficial since the item will be available to purchase through Nook Shopping.
Keep in mind that you can't place items when playing online, but you can drop items for other players to pick up.
This is useful if you have friends playing on the opposite hemisphere, since you'll experience different seasons!
You can get DIY Recipes that are limited to a season, but of course you'd also need the limited-time materials to craft it.
During Spring, you can get young spring bamboo, and during Fall, you can shake trees to get acorns and pinecones!
List of Seasons and Seasonal Materials
This is a list of fun activities to do when playing with your friends online. The more people you have over on the island, the better!

Dress to impress at your friend's island! This is perfect for seasonal events such as Bunny Day and Halloween!

Maybe the best-dressed gets a reward?
Celebrate birthdays, or any other occasion, with your friends! Especially at this time where we need to stay indoors, there are always ways to spend time with your loved ones.
Go ahead and grab some poppers and start the party! Don't forget to bring gifts!
This is enjoyable when you've donated a lot to the Museum. Stroll around with a partner, and enjoy the exhibits!
Place instruments and play them together with your friends! You can start a rock band, or even an orchestra, with the right instruments!
Flex your 5-star island with your friends by giving them an island tour! Show off your creative areas, and who knows, maybe you'll inspire them too!
You can play simple games with your friends such as Tag, and Hide and Seek, or you can also try competitive games.
Although Competitive Games need some amount of preparation, They're guaranteed to be fun when playing with your friends!
Set up the stage, prepare rewards, and let's get competitive!
