Beehives were introduced in Minecraft with the 1.15 Buzzy Bees update. These hives serve as homes for bees, which collect nectar from several flowers to produce honey. While exploring the vast Overworld, you will come across several bee nests scattered across the map. Additionally, you can craft your Beehives with the help of specific ingredients and a crafting table.

This article covers everything you need to know regarding Beehives in Minecraft.

In Minecraft, you will need the following ingredients to make a Beehive:

  • 6x Wooden planks
  • 3x Honeycombs

Here is how you can obtain these items:

  • Wooden Planks: You must use a crafting table to obtain wooden planks. First, chop logs from trees, then place the logs into the crafting table to craft the wooden planks.

  • Honeycombs: Similar to the real world, you will need a bee nest to obtain the honeycombs in Minecraft. To locate a bee nest, you must head to biomes filled with trees, such as Forests, Plains, Sunflower Plains, and others. Once you spot the bee nest, use a pair of shears to harvest the honeycomb. However, it is recommended that you should place a campfire beneath the nest to prevent the hostile bees from attacking.
