How to grow trees in LEGO Fortnite Lost Isles

During your quest through the Lost Isles in LEGO Fortnite, having a good stack of consumables is an absolute must, as above all else, your priority needs to be staying alive.

But did you know that it’s possible to grow trees, and thus get a seemingly infinite source of food in the mode? Here’s how to grow trees in LEGO Fortnite Lost Isles.

How to grow trees in LEGO Fortnite Lost Isles

As revealed by Reddit user iamthelittleguy on the mode’s subreddit, you can grow trees in LEGO Fortnite by building a Garden Plot and then planting either one Coconut or one Banana on it. After planting both types of trees, we were able to harvest both within seven minutes. They will then continue to produce fruits periodically for as long as they are still standing.

As pointed out by iamthelittleguy on their post, you can also use the method above to grow pineapples. Unlike the banana and coconut trees, only one pineapple can be acquired from its plant per harvesting cycle.

How to unlock and build Garden Plots

After crafting a Shovel and unlocking its recipe, you can build a Garden Plot in LEGO Fortnite Lost Isles by heading to your Build Menu, selecting it within the Utilities tab, and then expending 2x Soil and 3x Fertilizer. While you can get Soil by simply excavating with a shovel, you can farm Fertilizer by heading to any assigned Barn, depositing any type of animal food there, and then returning after a while to collect it.

How to build a Barn and get farm animals in LEGO Fortnite

Once you reach Village Level 2 and get its building recipe, you will be able to build a Barn in LEGO Fortnite in exchange for 10x Planks. Once you build the structure, you will be able to get a farm animal by searching for any non-aggressive wild one (such as cows or sheep) before following the steps below:

• Feed your chosen animal with Animal Treats (You can make the treats with the Grill in exchange for 5x Vines and 3x Corn)
• Guide them toward the newly built Barn
• Once close to it, interact with the Barn to assign your new friend as its owner

Apart from the Fertilizer, different types of animals will also produce unique resources, with sheep producing Wool, chickens producing Feathers, cows producing Milk, and pigs producing Mushrooms. Like with wild ones, you can also get extra resources by petting your farm animals.
