Free Farming
by GamerZ
Free Farming, a small Forge content mod for Minecraft 1.19.4, adds two new crops, tomatoes and rice, plus cheese and related food items.
What it does
Tomatoes grow on farmland like other crops, go through seven growth stages, and yield tomatoes that can be crafted into tomato soup or used in pizza. Rice is also grown on farmland and harvests similarly to wheat. Cooked meat is combined with rice to make rice bowls, which restore health when eaten, and the duration of the boost depends on the type of meat used.
Cheese is made in a longer process: milk is first turned into curds, and the curds are then placed in a cheese block. Placing the cheese block lets the cheese age, and aged cheese can be harvested as slices. Cheese can be eaten or used in pizza. The mod is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.19.4, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.
