It grows exclusively in jungles. If you’re lucky enough to find such a biome, look around, because you can spot brown cocoa pods right on tree trunks. They’re easy to harvest by hand or with any tool.
⭐️ Tip: If the jungle is far away, it’s best to take a couple of cocoa pods with you and plant them closer to home. That way, you won’t have to trek to distant lands every time you need more.

How to grow cocoa beans in Minecraft?
🔹 Find or obtain cocoa beans — without seeds, nothing will grow.
🔹 Prepare a jungle tree — the plant only grows on jungle wood blocks. Regular trees, dirt, or other blocks won’t work.

🔹 Plant the bean on the trunk — simply right-click on the tree.
🔹 Wait for growth — over time, cocoa goes through three growth stages. The bigger the pod, the closer it is to harvest time.
If you want to speed up the process, use bone meal because it instantly grows the plant to the third stage.
