Carrot Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a carrot with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, a carrot is a food item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace. Instead, you need to find and gather this item in the game.

Let’s explore how to add a carrot to your inventory.

Where to find a Carrot in Creative Mode

Here is where you can find a carrot in the Creative Inventory menu:

Platform Version(s) Creative Menu Location
Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.8 – 1.19
Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.19.3
  • Platform is the platform that applies.
  • Version(s) is the Minecraft version numbers where the item can be found in the menu location listed (we have tested and confirmed this version number).

How to get a Carrot in Survival Mode

There are 2 ways to add a carrot to your inventory in Survival mode.

1. Find a Village

In Minecraft, you can add a carrot to your inventory by finding a village and harvesting the carrots from a garden. So, let’s get started!

Villages are found in different biomes in Minecraft. Here is an example of what some of the villages look like:

Plains Village

Desert Village

Carrot - Wiki Guide 7

Once you’ve found a village, look for the gardens in the village. It is within the gardens that you will find rows of carrots to dig up.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 8

The game control to dig up the carrot depends on the version of Minecraft:

  • For Java Edition (PC/Mac), left click and hold on the carrot plants.
  • For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap and hold on the carrot plants.
  • For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press and hold the RT button on the Xbox controller.
  • For PS3 and PS4, press and hold the R2 button on the PS controller.
  • For Wii U, press and hold the ZR button on the gamepad.
  • For Nintendo Switch, press and hold the ZR button on the controller.
  • For Windows 10 Edition, left click and hold on the carrot plants.
  • For Education Edition, left click and hold on the carrot plants.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 9

The carrot plant will break and a smaller carrot will float on the ground. Make sure you pick up the carrot before it disappears.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 10

Once you pick up the carrot, it will appear in your hotbar.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 11

A carrot is a useful item and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.

2. Find and Kill a Zombie

You sometimes get a carrot in Minecraft by killing a zombie, so you need to find a zombie to kill. You can find zombies in most Overworld biomes in light levels of 7 or less. Zombies will spawn in the dark, usually at night.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 12

When you attack the zombie, it will turn pink as it takes damage.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 13

Continue to chase and attack the zombie. Once you have killed the zombie, it can drop items such as rotten flesh, carrots, or potatoes.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 14

Make sure you pick up the dropped items before they disappear. In this example, rotten flesh was dropped when we killed the zombie.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 15

The zombie could also have dropped carrots or potatoes.

Carrot - Wiki Guide 16 Carrot - Wiki Guide 17

Rotten flesh, carrots, and potatoes are items that you can keep in your inventory to be used later.
