The Grouse House Wiki is hard at work getting new wiki pages ready for the Springtide Howl Fayre! In the meantime, feel free to share any information you find important that you think might be nice to include on a wiki page!
In particular, we're keeping an eye out for:
- Explore encounters
- Gardening details (starting seeds perhaps based on biome, gardening times, etc.)
- Storyline text
But we'd love to hear about anything else too!

Text : Groundhogs scurry back and forth, carrying things and stashing them for later. What are they preparing for?
Options : Help Them Out / Sit With Them
Chosen Text : (Help Them Out) You can carry far more than these little creatures can! You offer your strong paws and the groundhogs eagerly accept your help. As you move various seeds, plants, and brush, they explain that they are getting ready to start a garden of their own! Strictly for groundhogs, of course. When you finish they thank you profusely and give you a small reward.
Reward : +3 GP
All aside from secondary sources were found in the desert(my home biome(only for this chart, future charts will be coded for different explore biomes))
All info aside from marked as secondary sources are from me
There is an achievement called why??!? Linked to this event
Whyyyy??!?
You licked the bird poop during the Springtide Howl Fayre Event. Why?
It can be encountered while exploring in the prairie at least that's where I encountered it You just explore for a while and eventually you'll come across bird poop and there's an option to lick it. If you Lick it you get the achievement sometimes it'll give you event tokens other times it just asks why??!?Â
To build on the post above me, i believe you can get it in every biome, ive got confirmed explores for glacier, taiga, and mountains, and i've gotten it in desert(home biome), so i think its all.
All future notes updates will become edits to this message.
Can't actually check how long growth time is for the cloudberry as I don't have space to grow it and it's a mutated form anyway. Probably an hour though.
Some other information that might be useful is mutation types. I've encountered three different ones so far: striped, spotted, and red.
I've got striped beebalm and moonflowers, a spotted snowdrop, and a red cloudberry.
Not sure how useful any of that is but hopefully it'll help lmao. Also my home biome is the deciduous forest and I've only been exploring there.
I got some encounters to contribute. I live in the Riparian Woodland, but I've been exploring the Prairie.
Text: A fuzzy bat clings to a large flower, its furry face covered in yellow. It must be pollinating!

There's a mutation called Stained for Water Lily. "Water Lily: Stained Mutation". Unsure of it applies to all plants.
Originally 30 minute growth time in Glacier. Increased growth time by 40 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes.
Farming level 8, mutated at gen 11.
Edit: Purple Saxifrage: Spotted Mutation. Went from 30 minutes growth time to 1:25 growth time. Farming level 9, mutated at gen 7.
Edit: Water Lily: Purple Mutation. 30 minutes to 1:35. Farming 10, mutated at gen 16. Water Lily: Pink Mutation, I think is 1:25 growth time. Same level and gen as the purple.
Purple Saxifrage: Blue Mutation. 30 minutes to I believe 1:25. Mutated at gen 1.
