This-N-That

There was a great article in the New York Times this week about the Longleaf Pine.

Pictured above are some of the young trees we planted this year.

A quote from the article:
“Everybody in the wood business says the longleaf pine tree was the best wood the Lord ever made,”

Also, this rain we received this week really helped our corn and sunflowers we have planted for wildlife.  There are song birds galore and this morning there were four hen turkeys and 4 poults using across the field.

Summer Plots Planted


Last week I finished planting our summer wildlife plots!  This was the last of our plantings and it was a mixture of soybeans and sunn hemp.  You can go to the link at the bottom of the page, privatforestlandowner, and access more information about this new crop I planted.
