Golden Apple Tree
by skniro
Golden Apple Tree adds a sapling that grows into a tree bearing golden apples, which players can harvest once the fruit ripens.
What it does
The tree grows through three stages. The first two stages show visible changes to the sapling, and the third stage produces fruit that matures over time. A player harvests a ripe fruit by right-clicking it. The mod runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it needs both sides: the server and every player need it installed. Builds cover 1.20 – 26.3 and are released under the MIT License, with the source code and issue tracker public.
