Starting next year, other than my dove field, i will just let my white clover and browse feed my deer until fall.


Here is another possible option for us to consider for a summer legume to add into our perpetual "weed" mix. It's pretty damn expensive though to buy. It would be worth if I knew for sure it would keep reseeding after one planting. Really need to get some N fixing legumes into the mix with the other plants.
