Graveyard Keeper 2 gardener stand
The Gardener Stand has no recipe table, and that is the answer to most questions about it: nothing is crafted at this station. It is what the zombie farming research unlocks — Zombie Gardening and Zombie Vineyard — so players who look it up usually want to know what it is for, not what it makes.

Common questions
- What does the gardener stand cost, and what unlocks it?
- 4 Wooden Plank + 2 Bronze Detail + 6 Bronze Nails. Two research nodes unlock it: Zombie Gardening and Zombie Vineyard — the two rows carry the same cost and the same name.
- Does the gardener stand craft anything?
- No. The building data lists no recipes at the stand, and none of the 453 recipes name it as their station. Planting happens at a Garden Bed; the stand is where the zombie side of farming works.
- Why are there two gardener stands in the data?
- The build ships two rows with the same player-facing name and the same cost — one unlocked by Zombie Gardening, one by Zombie Vineyard. This page lists both rather than picking one.
- Who works at a gardener stand?
- A zombie, which is why it sits behind the zombie research rather than the farming tree: the zombie line carries this station plus the Farmer I and Farmer II skills, and the game's own inspiration line for it reads “let zombies farm… surprisingly effective”. Crops you plant yourself are handled at the Garden Bed.
