Our notes on Homestead

What sets it apart

Homestead is a quest-driven Fabric pack about farming, cooking, building and exploring. The project page puts numbers on it: 709 quests across 27 chapters, about 187 dishes, 33 fish, more than 100 plushies and six backpack tiers.

The largest quest chapter is “Cogs and Whimsy” with 73 quests, which the page ties to Create. The page also mentions drinks, building blocks, gear sets and rebuilt menus. These are the author’s own counts and are not independently verified.

At roughly 376 projects in the local list, it is a large pack. Shaders ship enabled, with Complementary Reimagined and several others included.

Who it suits

Players who like a slow, cozy progression guided by a quest book, and enjoy cooking and decorating more than combat. The page says the “First Sprout” chapter works as the introduction.

The “#1 Cozy Modpack” line on the page is the author’s own description.

Before you install

The pack is on Fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1. Version 2.0.1 was updated in late October 2026.

The page recommends 6 to 8 GB of RAM, and says to stay within 6 to 10 GB because more can hurt performance. Shaders are preloaded, and the page says to turn them off in video settings if frame rate is low.

The page lists CurseForge, Prism and Modrinth launchers. The license is all rights reserved. The wiki has fifteen pages including changelogs, biomes and mobs, but its intro does not list known issues. Bugs go to the project’s GitHub.

Playing with friends

The wiki says the pack runs the same in single player, on a LAN world or on a server. Modrinth marks both client and server as required, and the page says a dedicated server pack is available to download.

Server hardware needs and the Java version are not documented on the project page or the wiki intro. Everyone joining should have the same pack version.
