    Seasalt25

    Yes, it is possible to make a farm for lapis lazuli. Cleric villagers may sell lapis lazuli for emeralds, so you can set up a big farm to get large amounts of items which you can then sell to other villagers for emeralds and then buy lapis from a cleric. Additionally, you could also set up a pillager/raid farm, as cleric villagers can give you free lapis when you have the Hero of the Village effect.
