East of the stairs north of the dig site is the Ginger Island Mushroom Cave. Initially, there is a boulder blocking the entrance, and someone behind it is calling for help. Place any bomb to remove the boulder, thus freeing [[Professor Snail]] and unlocking the [[Island Field Office]]. The cave spawns random new mushrooms every day. Unlike the [[The_Cave|farm's cave]], its mushrooms grow directly on the ground, so players benefit from the [[Skills#Foraging|Gatherer or Botanist]] professions when collecting them. | East of the stairs north of the dig site is the Ginger Island Mushroom Cave.
