Auto Farm Regions

Automatically manage crops in protected farming areas

A lightweight plugin that automates crop harvesting and regrowth inside WorldGuard regions. When a player breaks a mature crop, it's instantly replanted and sent to their inventory. Crops can also regrow automatically after a set time. Immature crops can’t be broken, and harvesting can be limited to specific tools like hoes.

Features:

Instantly replants and adds crops to inventory on break
Automatically grows crops after a configurable delay
Blocks immature crops from being broken
Tool restrictions (e.g. hoes only)
Fully region-based via WorldGuard
Lightweight and open source

All features are restricted to defined WorldGuard regions, ideal for public farms or spawn zones.

Why use this plugin?

I personally use RegionFarm on my EarthSMP server's spawn, where there's a public farm. It keeps the area clean by auto-replanting crops and speeds up growth in that specific region. It’s hands-off farming that fits well into shared spaces and public zones.
