Farming is the planting and harvesting of various seeds and fruits. They can be planted by selecting the desired item in the inventory then tapping a block of surface dirt, sand, or compost. While compost can be used for any plant, dirt and sand have restrictions.

If fruit trees are planted too close to other trees, their growth will be stunted. Food can be quickly obtained in real-time by planting then having a Blockhead meditate. They may stop meditating when the fruit or vegetable appears.

Vegetables may be harvested with a machete or a spade to increase yield. Planting anything in compost will tend to increase its size and yield.
