Biodiversity: Orchards is a Vintage Story mod by captanredbeard, WhiskeySunshine, The_Last_Thing and FuegoFish. Biodiversity: Orchards adds new fruit trees and harvests to Vintage Story, with uses ranging from fresh food and preserves to oils and drinks.
Why this mod is worth installing
Choose this add-on if you want more variety in orchards, fruit-based cooking, and practical uses for harvested produce. It suits players building farms, kitchens, and self-sufficient settlements.
What Biodiversity: Orchards adds
The add-on expands the world with additional fruit trees that can become a regular source of harvests. The fruits follow familiar Vintage Story food mechanics, so they can be eaten fresh or processed into several types of provisions.
Different fruits are suited to different tasks. Oil-rich varieties can be pressed and used for oil lamps or treating tool handles, while sweeter harvests support preserves, pies, and wine. More acidic fruits offer alternatives for jams and pickling.
Biodiversity: Orchards is part of the wider Biodiversity suite, but its focus is specifically on orchard plants and fruit production. Its recipes are designed to feel close to the base game's cooking and farming systems.
