Gather Sandleaf around Plateau Trunkway in Power Plateau for an initial supply, then cultivate it through the AIC Eco-Farm for repeatable production. You can also process the harvested plant into Sandleaf Powder at AIC facilities.
Where to find Sandleaf
Sandleaf grows in Power Plateau, around Plateau Trunkway, according to the Endfield Talos Wiki. Game8’s guide reports 17 Sandleaf in Power Plateau and describes a route that starts with a batch of five on the eastern side of Plateau Trunkway, continues west, and ends near United Parking Lot. The count and route are guide-reported map details, not an independently confirmed live-game total. See Game8’s Sandleaf location and farming guide.
Game8 says access to Power Plateau follows the main mission Eve of Battle and reaching Authority Level 34. Treat that as guide-reported progression information; access requirements can change with game updates.
How to farm Sandleaf repeatedly
For repeat supply, grow Sandleaf through the AIC Eco-Farm rather than relying only on overworld pickups. The item page lists Eco-Farm cultivation as an acquisition method, and Game8 outlines a setup using Planting and Seed-Picking Units.

Gathering or cultivating: which route should you use?
| Route | Best for | What it requires |
|---|---|---|
| Overworld gathering | Getting an initial stock quickly | Access to Power Plateau; Game8 reports the Eve of Battle mission and Authority Level 34 as progression requirements. |
| AIC cultivation | Building a repeat supply | Unlocking the relevant planting units and connecting the Planting Unit to the Automation-Core. |
What to do with Sandleaf
Sandleaf is the raw crop. AIC facilities can process it into Sandleaf Powder, an intermediate product used to make other materials. The Sandleaf Powder item page lists this processed output; the available sources do not establish an optimal production ratio or patch-specific processing layout.
