Ginger Island is a secondary location in Stardew Valley, containing a long list of features, quests and areas to explore. Unfortunately, to unlock the entire island, and discover all of its hidden secrets, you’ll need to first find and then spend Golden Walnuts.
There are a total of 130 Golden Walnuts to be found across Ginger Island, and un𝔍locking each new area of the island requires a set number of Walnuts. The lar🥂gest number of walnuts is required to unlock Qi’s Walnut Room, where you can earn exclusive rewards.
If you’re struggling to find any of the remaining Golden Walnuts, you can always pay the Golden Joja Parrot to locate the stragglers for you.
