Cherry Grove Villages

by Shinnyx

Cherry Grove Villages adds a village that generates in the Cherry Grove biome, a vanilla-style settlement for a biome that otherwise has none.

What it does

The mod places villages in Cherry Grove, a biome added to the game in 1.21, which the author describes as sparse on structures. Villages are kept rare on purpose, since the biome is a poor fit for village generation and too many would generate badly. Servers need the mod for the villages to appear, while players may add it to a client without any extra setup. Builds cover 1.20 – 1.21.8 across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and a data pack version is also available.

Key features

  1. Cherry Grove village

    A new village in the style of vanilla settlements generates inside the Cherry Grove biome.

  2. Rare generation

    Villages appear infrequently in Cherry Grove, to limit poorly placed settlements in the biome.

  3. Data pack option

    A data pack edition is published alongside the loader files, for servers that prefer that install route.
