Berry Picking is one of the first tasks you’ll encounter in Hollow Knight Silksong. It begins in Bone Bottom with Moss Druid, who sends you to gather three mossberries hidden in Pharloom. This early quest teaches exploration, platforming, and combat basics while rewarding you with a helpful crest.

How to Start Berry Picking

You’ll find Moss Druid in a cave at the top-right section of Bone Bottom. To enter, you first need the Silkspear ability, located in the large room outside her cave. Use the Silkspear to break the silk barrier at the far right on the bottom floor, then continue through to reach Moss Druid. Interact with her to begin the quest.

Mossberry Locations

Mossberry 1 – Moss Grotto

From Bone Bottom village, drop left into Moss Grotto. Travel into the left section and platform upward until you reach a staircase-like path. At the end, you’ll find the first mossberry.

Mossberry 2 – Moss Grotto

In the rightmost area of Moss Grotto, look for a mossberry placed out of reach. A flying enemy patrols nearby, which you can pogo off with Hornet’s downward diagonal strike. Time the bounce correctly, then slash upward to knock the berry loose and collect it.

Mossberry 3 – Above Bone Bottom Village

Travel through The Marrow past Shakra the map vendor until you circle back toward Bone Bottom. Drop down until you reach an elevator and activate it for future access. Proceed right across platforms until you spot a bug with a glowing mossberry in its mouth. Defeat the creature by pogoing off it repeatedly until it drops the berry. Use the elevator if you miss and need to retry.

Berry Picking Reward

Return all three mossberries to Moss Druid to complete the task. She rewards you with the Druid’s Eye crest, which fills part of your silk bar with a green elixir each time you take damage. This crest is especially useful in the early game to keep your healing resource available.

Final Blurb

Berry Picking in Hollow Knight Silksong is a simple but rewarding early quest. It introduces pogo mechanics, vertical exploration, and resource management. Completing it gives you the Druid’s Eye crest, a strong tool for surviving Pharloom’s early dangers.
