Tree Harvester
by Prunty
Tree Harvester lets a player sneak and break one log to have the whole connected tree fall at once, with limits set in its config.
What it does
Breaking a log while sneaking fells the connected tree in one action, so the player does not need to break each log separately. It supports vanilla logs and Nether stems, and the sneak requirement can be switched off. Tool durability is still consumed for each block broken, the same as normal breaking.
The mod needs Fabric API. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Tree Harvester is published for Fabric only, across 15 release versions 1.21 – 26.1.2, and is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.
Key features
Sneak to fell trees
Sneak-breaking one log removes the connected log column and its branches in a single action.
Configurable limits
Server owners can cap how many logs and leaves a single cut may remove, which keeps the feature practical.
Optional leaf clearing
Leaves attached to a felled tree can be cleared as well, or left in place by setting the option off.
Sneak requirement toggle
The sneak requirement can be turned off, so a plain break fells the tree as well.

Use cases
Wood farming
Players gathering large amounts of wood cut trees faster, with less repetitive early-game grinding.
Who it’s for: Players who gather wood often and server owners who want to tune how much a single cut can remove.
How it compares
Timber is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and it is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, with files for 26.1 – 26.3. Tree Log Highlight is client-side only, open source under the MIT License and covers 1.21 – 1.21.8, so it highlights logs but does not fell trees.

Cut trees faster without turning the game into creative mode. Tree Harvester Plus lets you sneak and break one log to fell the whole connected tree, with configurable limits and optional leaf clearing so you can keep the feature practical instead of overpowered.
