Digging is an activity involving the use the Shovel to dig holes, fill holes, and remove obstacles. Digging can be used to acquire a variety of materials primarily used to craft components and furniture, as well as Dream Shards and Night Shards.

Digging is essential in the preparation of land for Gardening.

Digging and Filling

To begin Digging, the Shovel must first be equipped from the Tool Wheel. Once equipped, any viable plot of land may be dug up by using the Shovel. When a plot has been dug, a hole will be left behind. These holes can be Filled in turn by using the Shovel on them. Both Digging and Filling can be performed consecutively in a row by pressing and holding the action button.

Digging a hole has a chance of yielding crafting materials native to the biome, such as Clay in the Sunlit Plateau. There is also a chance of obtaining Dream Shards and Night Shards from Digging in any biome.

The holes created by digging can be used in Gardening.
