Bells, fruit, turnips and Boondox

Bells, fruit, turnips and Boondox for Animal Crossing: Wild World on Nintendo DS.

Edition covered

Original Nintendo DS game; New Leaf and New Horizons features do not apply.

01

Steady income

For steady income, combine fishing, bug catching, fruit harvesting, duplicate fossils, shells, and the daily money rock.

02

Fruit values

Fruit includes apples, cherries, oranges, peaches, pears, and coconuts. Native fruit sells for 100 Bells, non-native ordinary fruit for 500, and coconuts for 500 in Wild World. Planting your first foreign fruits instead of selling them creates a renewable income source.

03

White turnips

Buy from Joan on Sunday morning. Compare Nook's morning and afternoon prices during the week. Sell before they spoil the following Sunday. Treat them as a speculative purchase: keep Bells available for tools and important shop items.

04

Red turnips

Seeds cost 1,000 Bells. Water the planted turnip every day; after six days in the ground, it can sell for 16,000 Bells. Unplanted seeds can be stored for the visitor trading sequence.

05

Boondox donations

Town Hall accepts donations to Boondox, rewarding progress with letters and colored feathers. Boondox is not a destination you can visit. Donate in stages and collect rewards before making another large contribution, because skipping thresholds can miss gifts.

FIELD NOTE

Nintendo DS mechanics. Wii U differences and historical distribution restrictions are noted where relevant. Based on the supplied Wild World guide (23 September 2026).
