Turnips are an edible root like carrots and can be found all over the Shire. They were added to the Mod in Public Beta 28.
Obtaining[]
Turnips can be obtained in Hobbit hole pantries, as well as from Hobbit farms. They can also be bought from various farmer NPCs (see infobox) for 2-4 ( to

Farming[]
As with potatoes and other seedless crops, turnips can be grown by planting one on a block of tilled ground. The growth process can be shortened by using bonemeal on the growing turnip.
Uses[]
Raw turnips only heals 2 (). However, it is possible to cook turnips in a furnace or Hobbit oven and produce roast turnip, which heals 6 (
). They can also be sold in pairs to Rohirrim stablemasters for 1 coin.
