How To Get Palm Frond
The first step to getting Palm Frond is tochop down palm trees. However, as palm trees grow coconuts, one of the game’s most valuable resources, it’s important that players don’t go chopping them all down assome trees do not grow back. If players run out of resources that do not respawn, they’ll need to search other islands to replenish supplies.
To begin with, choose 1 or 2 palm trees and chop them down by repeatedly hacking with the Refined Knife or Stone Tool, depending upon the player’s inventory, until the tree topples over. Stand in front of the fallen palm tree leaves, known as a Palm Bunch, and chop them repeatedly using a chopping tool like the Stone Tool, which releases around5 individual Palm Frondsthat are essentially the big palm tree leaves.
Players can store Palm Fronds in their backpack inventory or add them to storage containers for later use, using the crafting menu to navigate and pin craftable items they want to make using their newly found resources. It’s also worth noting thatYoung Palm Trees give players fibrous leaveswhen chopped instead of Fronds, and it’s not possible to get Palm Fronds by climbing a tree or before a palm tree is cut down. Performing actions like getting Palm Fronds also helps level up players' Harvesting capabilities, unlocking new crafting recipes as players craft new items.
