View on Items Database →Campfire in villager trading
Campfire is something you buy from villagers rather than sell to them; it does not appear as a raw-material trade, so trading is one of the few survival-friendly ways to stock up on it.
Campfire appears in the villager trade economy as a tradeable good.
Only the Fisherman deals in it, so any trading hall that supplies Campfire is built around that one profession. Campfire can also be obtained outside of trading, but buying it from a villager is often faster than gathering or smelting the ingredients yourself.

Who trades Campfire, and at what price
To buy Campfire, visit a Fisherman at the Apprentice tier (2 emeralds).
Is trading Campfire worth it?
On the demand side, the cheapest a villager will sell campfire for is 2 emeralds (the Fisherman). Stack multiple villagers offering it, or cure one for a discount, and you can pull large quantities cheaply.
How Campfire trading works
Every Campfire trade follows Minecraft's standard supply-and-demand rules. A trade can be used a limited number of times — 12 for the slot in question — before it greys out and locks until the villager restocks. A villager restocks up to twice per in-game day, but only if it can path to its job-site block and "work" there, which is why a trading hall must leave the workstation reachable.
Buying campfire repeatedly nudges its price up: heavy demand temporarily inflates the emerald cost, and the price drifts back down over time or resets when the villager restocks. Curing the villager from zombie form, or triggering the Hero of the Village effect, applies a discount on top of that, which is the cheapest way to acquire campfire in bulk.
One caution: the first trade you complete with a fresh villager permanently locks its current offers, including the campfire slot at whatever price it rolled. If you are chasing a specific price, decide before you trade, because there is no re-rolling a villager once it has done business with you.
Tips for trading Campfire
- Cheapest source: the Fisherman sells campfire for 2 emeralds once it reaches the Apprentice tier, the lowest emerald cost recorded for this item.
- Cure for a discount: curing a zombie villager of the relevant profession permanently slashes its prices, so campfire can often drop to a single emerald. See how.
- Lock the price: once you complete a trade the offer is fixed, so a cheap roll of campfire stays cheap for that villager. Reset only happens on never-traded Novice villagers via the rolling method.
