5 best Minecraft Garden Awakens update seeds

Announced back at Minecraft Live 2024, Mojang has finally released the Winter Drop, titled The Garden Awakens update, for both Java and Bedrock Editions. Many fans were surprised when the latest major update, Tricky Trials, did not include any new biomes. However, with The Garden Awakens, the year will end with a fresh biome added to Minecraft.

Minecraft's The Garden Awakens update introduces a fresh Overworld biome called Pale Garden. This biome is a dull and eerie variant of the Dark Oak Forests, featuring an unsettling atmosphere never seen before in-game.

Inside the Pale Garden, you will find a dull variant of dark oak trees called pale oak, which introduces a new family of wood. These trees also hide Creaking Heart blocks capable of spawning an irregular mob called the Creaking. If you are interested in discovering the host of features coming in with Minecraft's The Garden Awakens update, here are some great seeds for you.

Note: All seeds mentioned here work in both Minecraft Java and Bedrock Edition, but structure placements may differ.

Illagers and the Creaking seem to have some connection, as only illager mobs run away from the Creaking. Furthermore, Pale Gardens is a variant of Dark Oak Forests, where players can discover giant woodland mansions inhabited by illagers. Chests inside these mansions may contain resin clumps, items dropped when a Creaking is attacked.

Many are already coming up with theories connecting the Creaking and illagers. If you are one of them, this seed will definitely intrigue you. In this seed, you spawn right next to a woodland mansion with a large Pale Garden biome to the west.

Players who subscribe to this theory might enjoy exploring this seed, where illagers have built an outpost to monitor the Pale Garden.
