Berries are a wild-grown plant that can be harvested for edible berries, which provide fruit satiety . There are a variety of different berries that can be found in the game.
Obtaining
Berries are found as wild-growing berry bushes. Berry bushes cannot be propagated, grown or farmed, though the berry bush blocks can be broken and replanted on soil blocks. The fertility of the soil they are placed on has no impact on their ability to grow and produce berries. Berry bushes can also be stacked on top of each other. They cannot be planted in a flowerpot.
Berry bushes can be found in nearly all biomes, except for the extreme arctic or desert biomes. Red currant, black currant and white currant bushes can be found in temperate biomes, while cranberries and blueberries can be found in colder biomes. Blueberries tend to spawn in forest areas.
Berry bushes go through three stages: empty, flowering and ripe. Berry bushes take between 8 and 9.6 days to go from empty to flowering, and 8 and 9.6 days to go from flowering to ripe. Once the berries are ripe they will die and the bushes will return to being empty after 32 to 38.4 days. Berry bushes only ripen in spring, summer and autumn; even in a greenhouse , berry bushes will not ripen in winter. Berries are harvested from ripe berry bushes, which does not break the bush. Fully mature bushes yield multiple berries when harvested.
Berries may also be sold by the agricultural trader .

- The game selects a random amount of time between 8 and 9.6 days for the berry bush to both flower and ripen.
- The game will divide the random amount of days by the crop growth rate configuration when determining how long flowering and ripening will take.
- Once both the flowering and ripening stages are finished the berries will appear, ready to be harvested with .
