How to Get Bamboo
Bamboo is a little trickier to get than a crafting material like Clay or Wood. There are a couple of options available for obtaining Bamboo. Your first option is to use 2,000 Nook Miles in exchange for a Nook Miles Ticket. You can use the Nook Miles Ticket to travel to Mystery Islands, and these may contain Bamboo trees. Either dig up whole trees to bring back to your island, or you can use your axe, hit the trees, and collect Bamboo to bring back.
Your other option is to buy lots of Turnips from Daisy Mae. Eventually, after you buy enough of them, she will send you Bamboo Shoots in the mail as a thank you. Simply plant these Shoots, and they will grow into Bamboo Trees, which you can harvest Bamboo from.
