This should be a banner year for backyard venison, one of my persimmon trees that's approx 80yds from my stand is loaded with fruit:
It's a subset of my overall habitat improvement for my "deer engagement area" on my back 40. To enhance this one tree, I planted persimmon seeds this past winter in pots indoors, then planted seedings the seedlings in tubes with weed-mats all around, hoping to start a small grove:
Then after getting those started we found a bunch of new growth persimmons around the old female tree and adjacent a new pond we had dug and an existing tree line. All in all, we've probably got around 30-40 persimmons coming up this year!
To top it off, my 1st Chestnut Burr:
Just a matter of time before my dream of chestnut flavored venison is a reality.
