Venison is arguably the perfect protein. It's lean, it's clean, readily available, and versatile. On this episode we talk about the standard ways to cook it, the fancy ways, and give you an inside look into a deer processor operation. Families today are more particular than ever about where their food comes from, this alone has led some people to take up hunting. We feel like you should not overlook the value and quality of a good venison meal.

On this episode Chris and I take a look at cutover. This is the last thing that most people want when shopping for hunting land, especially if they have visions of a legacy farm that their family will enjoy for years. We are going to examine why that thinking is flawed, and how you could be missing a great value as well as the opportunity to design a property layout economically. Not only that, but cutovers are absolute deer factories.

We hope you enjoy this one, thanks for listening.

These days everyone has a seed blend with a fancy bag and marketing tagline. Do you really know what is in there, and should those things be in same bag to be planted with the same methods? With cereal grains requiring up to a 1" seed depth, and clover no more than 1/4", how to you plant them both from the same bag and get a successful stand? Often times seed blends serve as an insurance policy for seed companies. The more varieties that are in the bag, the more likely that something will turn green and grow. But for the price, could you do much better putting your own blend together and planting separately? This is the second in a series of two podcasts that we recorded with MDWFP Assistant Coordinator of the Private Lands program, Pierce Young. We think you will enjoy it
