This is my first attempt at a food plot. The entire area is about 2 acres, pictures are from a trail cam. I'm gong to seed it with spring deer plot mix from Turner Seed after the last freeze (I hope). Hopefully the deer will like it.

Before:


Plowing:


Burning the brush pile:


Ready for seeding:


Past performance is the best predictor of future behavior.

Lookin' good. To me, the anticipation is at least half the fun. Small time farming gets in your blood.

Looks good.

You might want to get in a crow hunt or two before throwing the seed.


If you ain't hunting, you ain't living right.

I've got a place out north of Cisco and I've planted various things over the last few years but can't grow squat. Did the soil test, fertilized per the recommendations and nothing. I'm glad somebody in Eastland county can grow something! Still love working the dirt though. I'm going to give it another shot this year.


It's true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance.
