Here is a bit on how we setup this part of farm to harvest this buck and several other deer. Hope this helps at least one person.

So proud of my buddy -Brian! He helps me manage farm and has had several close calls this year he killed this buck and the cherry on top was confirming it was 4.5 years old!

Exclusion fences are so critical to measure browse!
This can be a great tool to understand how attractive the plots are, what the deer numbers are in the area, and what is the lowest hole in the bucket on your farm.
Often we need to plant more food, shoot more does or sometimes both!

I saw this the other day and had to dig and share -for those interested!
In today’s day and age - we must dive into the data and not fall for the “click bait” - if we do we are doomed to become less educated.
We have the greatest library of information at our fingertips - far greater than any humans before.
Read, question, research, repeat - dont fall victim to click bait!
Stay safe!

Deer continue to feed on our Carbon Load!
On some of my newer and poorer quality soils - I plan to frost seed the new Vitalize annual clover mix soon. I will then come in and drill/broadcast our NitroBoost around Mid-May.
Come mid-August - we will load up the drill again with Carbon Load and start the cycle over!! Always feeding the deer, and the soil!

New!!!!
Bundle and save!
Every year we’d get asked the same questions about “where do I start”, “what’s a good fertility program”, etc.
In response to these questions we’ve created bundles where you can select your needs, and get it all with a few clicks.
We appreciate you all!

I’ve been planting stuff for a long time - yet every warm winter day, as the snow melts, I get the same excited feeling when watching the cameras! I just love to watch deer pile into the still green Carbon Load fields.
As you can see in the last picture - the deer are enjoying the greens!
Everywhere that is planted in Carbon Load continues to feed deer and soil - 12 months out of the year!!

Absolutely trampled & chewed up but camera didn't capture a single thing except us going in and out of the drive

What can we accomplish with Vitalize’s mixes? A lot!
Here at Vitalize we live by what we preach. This field is an old logging deck that has had nothing but lime applied, and the 1-2 system for several years now.
As you can see - we are making a lot of great things happen here, all with a balance of plants.
Nitroboost planting is around the corner.

Some of the key components to our Nitroboost are not just the great food production and N fixation that occurs - as we can see in pic 1. It is also the below/above ground biomass (see in pic 2).
This will not only have a fantastic impact on microbes below ground - it’ll also positively impact our fall carbon load planting by being a slow release fertilizer!!
Biomass is key to fixing soils!

The Vitalize clover and oats blend has done very well for us on this logging road. We simply broadcasted this before a rain.
The oats act as a great nurse crop.
I then frost seeded this with our Premium Clover + to fill it in even more.
Adding food to your trail systems can add a lot of acreage and reduce the browse pressure on your destination fields. Just another great tool in the tool box of seed management.

Shipping next week!!
Thanks for all pre orders!
All new seed orders shipping next week!
Annual clover mix - ideal for those with very short growing seasons but they want to get something in before planting their fall Carbon Load or other fall crop. Can be frost seeded into over browsed fields as well. I am using this on a few new fields that have been browsed heavy. This will add to the CL green up before I drill in Nitroboost!
Premium clover+ - a great blend of clovers and chicory - designed to help outcompete weeds. Great for logging roads, orchards, plots, etc. can be frost seeded or traditionally planted. I am using this over the top of my Clover/oats/chicory plots to fill in any gaps.
Brassicas mix - a fantastic mix of forage and tubers producers. Whether you are adding to a mix, over-seeding a bean field or anything in between this is a great mix. Some will love to mix this with the annual clover blend for a fall plot!
