Magical Crops is a mod that allows you to grow and craft your own resources. When planted, magical seeds will eventually mature, and when harvested will drop magical essences, which you can then craft into various resources, such as mob drops or metals. Additionally, the essences harvested from magical crops can be used to craft more decorative and functional blocks, like glowstone-infused cobblestone blocks. But you're not only restricted to vanilla items; magical crops can be grown for resources from several other popular mods, such as Thermal Expansion, IndustrialCraft 2, or Thaumcraft 4.

There are also some "standard" food items acquirable through farming in this manner, such as strawberries and corn. These can be used to add variety into your diet, which might be helpful in certain modpacks.
