AppleTrees

Grow, track, harvest, and automate apples like never before.

AppleTrees is a lightweight Minecraft mod for Forge and Fabric that adds custom Apple Trees with visible fruit growth, rare apple drops, Goblin Harvester automation, and Blaze Powder Infusion.

The goal is to keep apple farming simple, readable, and vanilla-friendly while adding enough progression to make orchards feel useful and rewarding. MORE AND MORE

Features

Visible Apple Growth

AppleTrees leaves use a visible multi-stage fruit growth system.

Fruit stages 0–4
Fully mature leaves can be harvested
Fruit grows over time
Bone meal support
Clear in-game feedback through tooltips

No more guessing when apples are ready.

Apple Drops

Mature AppleTrees leaves can drop different apple types depending on rarity and harvest method.

Possible drops include:

Apple
Golden Apple
Enchanted Golden Apple
Amethyst Apple
Netherite Apple

Rare apples are chance-based and are not guaranteed.

Netherite Apple

The Netherite Apple is an ultra-rare AppleTrees drop with powerful effects.

It is intentionally not craftable.

Netherite Apple effects:

Regeneration VI
Absorption VI
Resistance VI
Fire Resistance
Strength V
Speed II

The Netherite Apple is very strong, but it remains extremely rare and must be obtained through AppleTrees harvesting.

Amethyst Apple

The Amethyst Apple is a rare special apple that gives AppleTrees another progression step between Golden Apples and the strongest rare apples.

Blaze Powder Infusion

Blaze Powder Infusion lets you use vanilla Blaze Powder on AppleTrees leaves to boost the connected tree/leaf cluster.

How it works:

Right-click AppleTrees leaves with Blaze Powder
Works on fruiting and non-fruiting AppleTrees leaves
Infuses connected fruiting leaves in that tree/cluster
Infused leaves grow faster
Each infused fruiting leaf gets one boosted mature harvest
Infusion clears after that leaf is harvested
Uses custom particles and sound

There are no charges, no long timer, and no permanent infusion. One infusion gives one boosted harvest per infused fruiting leaf.

Goblin Harvester

The Goblin Harvester is an orchard helper that can automatically harvest mature AppleTrees fruit and deposit the drops into nearby storage.

The Goblin can:

Harvest mature fruiting leaves
Store apple drops internally
Deposit into chests and barrels
Work with Apple, Golden Apple, Enchanted Golden Apple, Amethyst Apple, and Netherite Apple
Prioritize rare/special apples
Avoid flooding storage with endless regular apples

Smart Storage Sorting

The Goblin Harvester supports item-frame-based storage sorting.

Place an item frame on a chest or barrel and put the matching apple item in the frame.

Supported labels:

Apple
Golden Apple
Enchanted Golden Apple
Amethyst Apple
Netherite Apple

The Goblin will only deposit matching items into labeled storage.

Examples:

Apple label = regular Apples only
Golden Apple label = Golden Apples only
Enchanted Golden Apple label = Enchanted Golden Apples only
Amethyst Apple label = Amethyst Apples only
Netherite Apple label = Netherite Apples only

Double chests are treated as one full container. If one matching labeled container is full, the Goblin can move to the next matching container, making larger orchard lanes easier to manage.
