This page was created to provide a complete list of foods that can be gathered from wild sources and propagated by players, as well as those foods that can be acquired but not farmed or raised.

Gathering Foraged Food

Different plants are generated in different climactic regions including wild crops, berry bushes, cactus, and mushrooms.

Plant Foods that can be Farmed

Foods that can be farmed include: carrots, flax, onions, turnips, parsnips, rice, rye, spelt and soybeans. See farming for more information on growing these crops.

Wild Crops

Crop-flax.png Wild crops are the source of player's seeds to begin farming and can be harvested with an empty hand. Harvesting mature plants is guaranteed to provide seeds and edibles including beans, grains and root vegetables. A crop that is not mature won't provide as many edibles, and may not drop seeds.

Berry Farms

Fruits and Vegetables that cannot be Farmed

These foods can be collected by harvesting wild plants, but not grown by players

Mushrooms

Main article: Mushrooms

Grid mushroom bolete.png Mushrooms are naturally generated in colder, wetter climactic regions. Breaking the mushroom with an empty hand allows players to collect the mushrooms, but the tops will not regrow. Mushrooms can be selectively harvested with a knife to collect only the tops. Over time, the tops will regenerate.

Saguaro

Fruit-saguaro.png Saguaro or cactus fruit are naturally generated in arid or desert climactic regions. Breaking the cactus block with an empty hand allows players to collect the fruits, but the tops will not regrow. Fruits can be selectively harvested with a knife. Over time, the fruit will regenerate.

Hunting Wild Animals

Any animal can be killed and butchered for meat, fat, hides and bones. Use a knife or scythe to harvest animal products. When the butchering process is complete, a small window will open to allow players to collect all the animal resources.

Animals that can be Domesticated

Animals that can be domesticated include the bighorn sheep, wild pig and chicken. See Animal Husbandry for more information.

Animals that cannot be Domesticated

Animals that cannot be domesticated include: Wolves, Foxes, Hyenas and Hares.

Bush Meat
