Where Do Skinny Mushrooms Appear

Around Trees During Mushrooming Season

Mushrooms will start to appear during the last month of Fall. This is known as Mushrooming Season, and it occurs in November for Northern Hemisphere players, and May for Southern Hemisphere players.

Plant Trees Close to Each Other

5 pieces of mushroom will grow around Hardwood and Pine (Cedar) trees each day during Mushrooming Season. Up to 30 pieces of mushroom can appear on your island at a time.

We recommend planting trees close to each other so you can collect them easily.

How Close Can You Plant Trees?

Mushrooms disappear after the Mushrooming Season

Once the new month starts at 5 AM (December for Northern Hemisphere, and June for Southern Hemisphere), all grown mushrooms around the island will be gone.

However, mushrooms that you have picked up and dropped will not disappear.

Sell for 300 Bells

You can sell Skinny Mushrooms for 300 Bells at Nook's Cranny. However, as it does not sell for much, we recommend using them for crafting instead.

Eat for a Temporary Strength Boost

Like fruits, you can eat mushrooms for a temporary boost of strength. This allows you to dig up trees and break rocks.
