A basic vanilla farm will keep you from starving to death. Squids are easy to kill and drop calamari, which can be cooked or eaten raw. See [[Beginner Tips#Food|Beginner Tips - Food]] for the best ways to keep yourself fed. Start a small farm plot with Pam's Harvestcraft or vanilla crops. Farmland must be within 4 horizontal blocks of a water source block or it can't be tilled. Tilling non-hydrated grass will yield seeds.

See [[Beginner Tips#Food|Beginner Tips - Food]] for the best ways to keep yourself fed. Break [[Garden]]s to get food, drop them in any crafting grid to convert to seeds. Start a basic farm as soon as possible to avoid starving to death. Farmland must be within 4 horizontal blocks of a water source block at the same Y-level or it can't be tilled. Tilling non-hydrated grass with a hoe/mattock will yield seeds.


Squids are easy to kill, respawn on their own, and drop calamari which can be cooked or eaten raw.
Plant a large plot of cotton after securing renewable food. You're going to need a ton of string for tanned leather, backpacks and a sleeping bag/beds. Place all of your Pam's gardens that you don't have more than eight of on cleared dirt/grass around your base so they start spreading. Leave at least six blocks between gardens of the same type.


Consider breaking extra Stalk Gardens to find some soybeans and plant a 9x9 cropland of that. Soybeans are one of the most versatile crops and process into Tofu for the Healing Axe quest.

Lure some cows, chickens, pigs and/or sheep into a pit or pen before slaughtering any extras. Passive mobs have a chance to explode on death if not killed with an appropriate tool, another reason they don't make for the best food supply.
