Hidden within the latest Grow a Garden event, the Safari Totem Charm is a rare collectible that few players manage to obtain. Here’s how to track it down and claim it before the event ends.
How to Obtain Safari Totem Charm in Grow a Garden
Players contribute to the Safari Harvest event by harvesting plants and submitting them to Safari Joyce in the lobby center to push the community past 9 billion points. Once unlocked, the Safari Totem Charm appears in the Safari Shop near Wilderness Will NPC as the ninth item for purchase with shekels earned from event play. If unavailable, players wait 45 minutes for the shop reset, then equip the charm from inventory and left-click while holding it to trigger random Safari weather events like Rain or Stampede on their server.
Currently, there’s only a single way to obtain the Safari Totem Charm in the game, and that is through the Safari Shop in Grow a Garden. However, you must first unlock the Safari Totem charm in the event shop. This will be done only when the entire community contributes to the Safari Harvest event and reaches the 9,000,000,000-point milestone.
So, first, go to the center of the lobby and interact with the Safari Joyce NPC. She’ll require certain plant types, and you must submit the same to her. This increases the overall points displayed above the shipping container behind and takes you closer to your next reward.

Once done, visit the Safari shop beside the event area and interact with the Wilderness Will NPC. The Safari Totem will be listed as the ninth item, and you can buy it by spending some Sheckles.
By the time this charm is unlocked in the shop, the reset timer will have changed to 45 minutes. So, if the charm isn’t present when you last checked the shop, wait for the stock to reset and check again.
How to Use a Safari Totem Charm in Grow a Garden
Equip the Safari Totem Charm from your inventory to activate its growth boost on plants. Place it near crops in your garden plot, where it speeds up maturation by 25% during the event period. Effects last 30 minutes per use and stack with other charms if positioned correctly. Watch for a glowing aura around affected plants to confirm activation. Redeem it again after cooldown for repeated benefits.
Having unlocked the Safari Totem charm in Grow a Garden, you must be curious to know how it works. Using the charm is pretty simple. Equip the Safari Totem in your hand and click the left-mouse button to use it.
This will summon a random Safari-themed weather event in your server. This includes the Safari Rain, Safari Night, Safari Oasis, Safari Draught, or the Safari Stampede, where each of them can give your fruits a unique mutation as well.
However, do note that you can only summon those weather events that have been unlocked by the community. So, save the gear till most of the events are unlocked and you can make the most out of this charm. That said, have a look at the milestones required to unlock the Safari-themed weather events:
- Safari Rain: 500M Points
- Safari Night: 7B Points
- Safari Oasis: 11B Points
- Safari Draught: 15B Points
- Safari Stampede: 21B Points
