To feed Sam in Grow a Garden, the player needs to have a cooked food item in their hand before interacting with Sam, who is the Seed Shop vendor. When holding the food item and approaching Sam, the player can feed him by pressing and holding the E key. Feeding Sam is possible once every 24 hours. To get cooked food, players must first obtain a Cooking Kit by completing certain Achievements in the Garden Guide (Common, Rare, or Mythical levels). The Cooking Kit can be placed in the garden to cook various meals. Different cooked meals can be fed to Sam, with some items like waffles, burgers, or corn dogs being popular choices. Feeding Sam increases friendship points, unlocking exclusive seeds in a special shop tab when enough points are accrued. In summary:
- Get a Cooking Kit via Achievements in the Garden Guide.
- Use the Cooking Kit to cook food items.
- Hold a cooked food item and approach Sam.
- Press and hold E to feed him (once every 24 hours).
- Feeding Sam increases friendship level and unlocks special seeds.
