What is Grass in Minecraft?

Grass is a short, green plant that covers the ground in many biomes. Its main purpose is to be a decorative element that makes the world look more alive and natural. It is also the primary source for getting seeds to start a wheat farm. Breaking grass has a chance to drop seeds. It is a simple but essential part of the Minecraft landscape. There is also a two block tall version called tall grass. This guide is for the short, one block tall grass.

How to get Grass in Minecraft

Grass generates naturally on top of grass blocks in most Overworld biomes. To collect it as an item, you must use a pair of shears. If you break it with your hand or any other tool, it will just break and might drop seeds, but you will not get the grass item itself. You can craft shears from two iron ingots. You can also use bone meal on a grass block to instantly grow a patch of grass and flowers, which you can then shear to collect a lot of grass quickly.

How to use Grass in Minecraft

The main use for grass is decoration. You can place it on dirt or grass blocks to make your builds look more natural and overgrown. It is perfect for landscaping gardens, creating meadows, or adding a touch of nature to a stone path. You cannot place it in a flower pot. Its other main use is to get seeds. When you break grass without shears, there is a chance it will drop one wheat seed. This is the most common way to start a farm. Grass can also be placed in a composter, where it has a low chance of adding a layer to the compost, which will eventually turn into bone meal.
