Hungry Birds Event

The Hungry Birds Event began on January 17, 2026, and is notable for being flagged as an ongoing event rather than a fixed-window seasonal drop, which changes how you should approach it. Its two main additions were new pets and a fresh wave of PhatMojo merchandise, again tying in-game collectibles to Grow a Garden's official physical toy line.

The bird theme points the rewards squarely at the pet system, so the priority is securing the new avian pets, whether they come from in-game activity or from redeeming codes bundled with the PhatMojo sets. Because pets in Grow a Garden provide passive bonuses to growth, harvesting, and earnings, adding the event's birds to an active roster pays off well beyond the event's novelty.

Since it is described as ongoing, there is less deadline pressure than with a strict three-week event, but merch-linked rewards still depend on stock and code availability, so do not assume the redemption pets will stay accessible forever. The smart plan is to redeem any merch codes early, fold the new birds into your pet lineup, and keep an eye on official channels for additional Hungry Birds drops.
