Update 2.0 is finally available for Animal Crossing New Horizons players, and that’s certainly something to be excited about. Not only has Brewster and his cafe finally been added to the game, but players will also be able to donate bells to help NPCs set up permanent shops on Harv’s Island and also engage in a new cooking system. There is a lot of content here that will definitely bring back inactive players for a long time. Here is how to get wheat in Animal Crossing New Horizons.

Getting Wheat in Animal Crossing New Horizons

The cooking system is one of the most exciting additions to Animal Crossing New Horizons, and it allows players to prepare meals and cook food, which can then be eaten or used as decorative items on the island. We definitely recommend the latter over the former.

Before you can start cooking, however, you’ll need certain ingredients, like wheat, which is used to make flour and wholemeal flour.

Wheat Starts can be purchased from Leif when he visits your island, or if you donate 100,000 Bells to Harv’s Island Gyroids, you can help Leif set up a permanent shop there so you can buy from him whenever you want. Wheat and Pumpkin Starters can only be obtained from Leif during the Fall Season, and you can purchase them for 280 Bells each.

Once you have your starts, return to the island, select them from your inventory, and plant them on the ground. After that, you just need to wait three days to harvest them. If you water them daily, you can also increase the amount of wheat you can harvest on the fourth day.

The good thing about Wheat Starters is that they aren’t single-use items; even after harvesting them, you can keep watering them to get even more.
