Acacia Wood is the bark-sided variant of the acacia tree in Minecraft — a block that displays the grey acacia bark texture on all six faces, unlike Acacia Log which shows the cut orange rings on its top and bottom. Players craft Acacia Wood by placing 4 Acacia Logs in a plus (cross) pattern on a crafting table, which yields exactly 3 Acacia Wood blocks. The block generates naturally as the trunk of acacia trees in savanna, savanna plateau, and windswept savanna biomes, and shares the hardness of 2 and blast resistance of 2 with every other vanilla wood. An axe breaks Acacia Wood the fastest, though bare hands still harvest the block.

Builders reach for Acacia Wood when a pillar needs continuous bark all the way around — a column of stacked Acacia Logs interrupts the bark with orange end-grain every block, while stacked Acacia Wood keeps the grey bark uninterrupted from floor to ceiling. The block is fully flammable (burn odds 5), catches fire from adjacent lava, and works as furnace fuel that smelts 1.5 items per block, matching the fuel value of every vanilla log and wood type. Acacia Wood was introduced to Java Edition in version 1.7.2 (snapshot 13w43a) and to Bedrock Edition in Pocket Edition Alpha 0.9.0, and the block is renewable because acacia trees can be replanted from Acacia Saplings. Acacia Planks remain the go-to for flat orange surfaces, but Acacia Wood is the right choice for vertical bark-textured structural columns.
