Now that you know why soil is important in Disney Dreamight Valley, here’s an in-depth guide on where to find it and what to use it for.
Key Takeaways
- Soil can be obtained by digging with the Royal Shovel.
- Some locations drop more soil than others.
- Soil can be used to craft decorations for your house.
- You will also be needing soil for some quests.
- You can sell soil at Goofy’s Cart for 3 Star Coins.
How To Get Soil
Soil in Disney Dreamlight Valley can only be obtained through one technique: digging. For this, you’ll first need a shovel.
You can find the shovel near the east side of the Plaza. It’s right there next to the Chez Remy building. After acquiring the shovel, you must equip it and start digging in the grass nearby. The interesting bit is that you can easily find soil right there in the Plaza.
Keep in mind that the drop rate of the soil isn’t 100%. So you might need to do a lot of digging to get the right amount of soil that you need. Additionally, you should dig in the grassy areas only.
It’s best to store the shovel in the Storage unit that can be found in your house. Dropping the shovel after your inventory is full is not the most efficient way to handle the shovel.
Soil Locations
Although you can find soil in any biome in Disney Dreamlight Valley, there are a few biomes where soil drop rates are high. These are the biomes where soil is the most abundant.
- Plaza
- Forest of Valor
- Forgotten Lands
- Frosted Heights
- Peaceful Meadow
- Glade of Trust
- Sunlit Plateau

Village Project The Garden
This quest is Wall-E’s third quest and it requires you to rebuild the gardening region present in Peaceful Meadow.
As is apparent, you’ll need to unlock the Peaceful Meadow biome. You can easily unlock this biome by clearing the rocks that block the path to it using a Pickaxe. The Pickaxe can be acquired after completing The Royal Tools quest.
