Fields of Mistria is a charming farming sim where you help restore the magical town of Mistria, which often involves completing quests to track down forageable items for the town residents. With four seasons to explore, some collectibles are rarer or more challenging to locate than others. One rare ingredient is Moon Fruit, a mysterious fruit you can only find during the Fall. However, knowing how to get Moon Fruit in Fields of Mistria might leave you stumped. Not only is it a rare spawn drop, but it also only grows in one hidden part of the map.

Fields of Mistria: Where to Find Tidestone
The Tidestone is one of the artifacts that you’ll need to donate to the museum in Fields of Mistria, but it can be tedious to get.
While you might first encounter Moon Fruit during Eiland’s Request for Moon Fruit quest, it also pops up in Juniper’s Important Request for a Moon Fruit. Therefore, knowing where to find Moon Fruit is essential to tick off these quests and also opens the door to new recipes as a cooking ingredient.
How To Get Moon Fruit In Fields of Mistria (Request For Moon Fruit Quest Guide)
There are a couple of ways to find Moon Fruit in Fields of Mistria, with one being more reliable than the other. The best location to find Moon Fruit is at the bottom right-hand corner of the map on The Eastern Road, as pictured above. Here, you can harvest two Moon Fruits growing spots and a Wishing Well, which you can toss Tesserae into. However, you could easily stroll past this part of the map because of the large rock blocking the path. To break the rock, you must upgrade the pickaxe tool to at least a copper pickaxe that can smash these large rocks to pieces. Once you’ve upgraded your pickaxe, you can break the rock and collect at least two Moon Fruit, which takes several days to re-grow once picked.
You can buy a Copper Pickaxe from the Blacksmith shop for 1,000 Tesserae. Alternatively, you can mine Copper Ore in the mines to craft x4 Copper Ingots to make the Copper Pickaxe at the Forge, which is the cheaper option.
Of course, it is also possible to harvest Moon Fruit growing randomly in different parts of the map, such as in The Narrows, as pictured below. However, Moon Fruit is quite a rare spawn drop, so stumbling across it by chance could take much longer than the previous method.
Moon Fruit Uses And Request For Moon Fruit Quest Rewards In Fields of Mistria
Whichever method works for you above, return one Moon Fruit to Eiland to turn in the quest and collect the Caramelized Moon Fruit recipe as a reward. When Juniper’s Important Request for a Moon Fruit pops up later in the Fall, she likewise asks for one Moon Fruit but instead rewards you with the Moon Fruit Cake recipe, expanding your collection of cooking recipes in Fields of Mistria.
The game describes Moon Fruit as a rare fruit with a sweet, floral flavor commonly used in cooking. However, Moon Fruit also has a few different uses in Fields of Mistria:
- You can donate it to the Museum as part of the Fall Forage Set.
- You could sell it via your shipping bin for 35 Tesserae each.
- Instead of cooking it, you could eat it to restore +8 health and +8 stamina for a small snack on the go.
