Flax is both a source of food as well as a source of flax fiber that can be used in various technologies.

Sources of flax seeds

Flax can be found growing the wild and can be harvested by breaking the flax plants with an empty hand, knife, or scythe. Fully mature plants will yield flax grain, flax fiber and at least one seed when harvested. Harvesting immature plants may yield no or little grain or fiber and may or may not provide a seed.

Flax seeds can be used in farming and can be harvested in the same way as wild flax.

Flax seeds can also be found in seed and farming loot vessels located in ruins

Flax grain

Flax grain can be eaten without cooking with a satiety value of 30 but can also be ground into flour using a quern either manually or with automated milling. This flour, like flour from other grains, can be made into bread. Flax bread has a satiety value of 160. Flax grain can also be used as an ingredient in the advanced cooking recipe for porridge.

See Cooking's main page for more details on food and satiety

Flax fiber

Sources of flax fiber

Flax fiber can be harvested by breaking mature wild or farmed flax plants with an empty hand, knife, or scythe. It may also drop from butchering dead drifters by shift clicking with a knife in the active hand until the process is complete and the GUI opens to allow players to remove dropped items.
