Where to find Dark Wood in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Dark Wood can only be collected from the Forgotten Lands Biome in the upper left corner of the Valley. This will require you to unlock the Sunlit Plateau with 7,000 Dreamlight and then the Forgotten Lands with 15,000 Dreamlight.

Once you can access the Biome, you can find the pieces of wood spread around the area's grounds, usually at the base of the trees. More will randomly spawn as you play, so even if you seem to have picked all the wood available at the moment, know that more will soon take its place. Approach a piece, and the option to pick it up will be displayed on your screen as A/X on your console or E on your PC. If you can't seem to find any at the moment, you can wait 30-40 minutes for more to respawn.
