Here's what you need to craft the Animal Crossing: New Horizons hedge fence recipe.

If you checked your mailbox as you stepped out of your front door this morning, you may have noticed Tom Nook asked you to come and see him to learn more about Nature Day. Those who manage to get into Resident Services without being lured into buying Shrubs from the visiting Leif the Sloth may have already learned what the deal is, but if you were distracted by the pretty bushes then here's the score:

Nature Day will last until May 4 and brings with it special Nook Miles+ reward activities. These are only available after you've progressed far enough through the game to unlock the Resident Services building and are accessed by going into the Nook Miles app and hitting the + button.

If you talk to Tom Nook he'll ask you to complete at least one of these limited-time Nature Day activities before you get a special reward. In our experience your first will simply be planting a shrub, any shrub, so now you can go talk to Leif and buy some plants from him. Plant your first Shrub starter somewhere and claim your Nook Miles+ reward, then head back inside Resident Services to talk to Tom Nook.
