Minecraft: How to build a bee farm to get honeycomb

Best way to harvest honeycomb in Minecraft

1. What you’ll need

• 2 or more bee nests or beehives
• 2 Bees (can be found near flower biomes or plains)
• 1 campfire per hive
• Shears
• Flowers, as many as possible
• Glass or building blocks

Steps to build a bee farm

1. Locate or collect bees from the nest.

• Find bees near a plain or a flower forest on trees.
• Use a lead or flower to guide them to your base.
• Use a tool that has been enchanted with Silktouch to collect the nest without losing any bees.
  (Warning: If you break a hive without silk touch, it will be destroyed forever.)

2. Set up the bee farm.

• Construct a glass fence to keep the bees from wandering too far.
• Place flowers in front of each hive to encourage pollination.
• Place beehives or nests with a one-block space below.

3. Add campfires.

• Put a campfire beneath each hive or nest.
• The campfire keeps the bees calm when trying to collect honeycomb.

4. Plant flowers nearby.

• Bees need flowers to gather pollen and fill their hives with honey.
• If we plant more flowers, then it will speed up the honey production.

5. Wait for the hive to be filled.

• When the hive reaches level 5, once the honey starts to drip from the front of the hive, it is ready.

Helpful Tips:

• Use dispensers with shears to automate harvesting.
• Fence the area to prevent bees from wandering too far.
• Keep the area well-lit to maintain bee activity during the day.
