Cobblestone farming is the technique of using a cobblestone generator to produce cobblestone without damaging the terrain. Cobblestone generators work on the principle that when a lava stream comes into contact with water, the lava is turned into cobblestone. This fresh cobblestone then prevents the two streams from touching. When this fresh cobblestone is removed, the two fluids will produce another piece of cobblestone. Variants of the generator can also produce smooth stone, but this is generally trickier, because for smooth stone, the lava must enter the water from above.

Many generator designs exist, but the most basic is simply a 10-block long trench, with a water and lava source blocks at opposite ends. This will create cobblestone where the fluids meet: Because of their different ranges, this will not be halfway down the trench, but closer to the lava source block.

When producing cobblestone, one must be careful not to let the flowing water touch the lava source block. Doing so will destroy the lava source, converting it into obsidian. A basic understanding of fluids is helpful to prevent this. - Wiki
