How to Make an Iron Farm in Minecraft

Ever wondered how to keep your armor shiny and your tools in tip-top shape without scrapping every cave for iron in Minecraft? Let’s dive into how you can create an iron farm and never worry about your iron supply again!

So, you’re asking, “How do I make an iron farm in Minecraft?” It’s simpler than you might think and super useful for all your crafting needs. Let’s build one together!

Quick Steps to Set Up Your Iron Farm

To start your iron farm, you’ll need villagers, beds, a zombie, and enough building materials to create a small structure. The basic idea is to scare the villagers with a zombie so they summon golems, which you can then harvest for iron.

First, build a platform in the sky or on the ground and place beds for your villagers. Next, safely trap a zombie so it can see the villagers but can’t hurt them. When the villagers get scared, they’ll spawn Iron Golems to protect them. Build a containment area for the golems and a method to eliminate them (like lava) so you can collect the iron they drop.
