Squirrel

The Squirrel is one of the more familiar woodland critters in Grow a Garden, and this entry does flag that it carries a dedicated Squirrel ability — even though the exact effect and egg source are left blank here. That single detail matters: an explicitly named passive signals the Squirrel is built to do something for your garden rather than sit purely as a cosmetic, which already separates it from filler companions.

For a farming build, the smart move is to lean into the squirrel theme. These critters are nature-coded gatherers, so it is reasonable to expect a passive oriented around collection, foraging, or a steady utility tick rather than a flashy headline multiplier. Because the precise numbers are not recorded in this row, confirm the ability's scaling in-game before you build a profit loop around it — but the presence of a named effect at least makes it worth testing in an active slot.

On a serious team, the Squirrel reads as a solid utility candidate rather than a guaranteed meta anchor. Slot it, measure its real contribution against your top earners, and keep it if its passive meaningfully supports your harvest cadence; otherwise rotate it to the collection bench.
