NOPE, if you're living where they have a winter freeze, there just isn't a foodplot that will attract deer ALL SEASON. Clovers and such will be dead and dormant by the time mid season arrives. On the other hand, great fall plots like Buck Forage Oats , Bio-Maxx, Brassica, etc... will be of NO value at any other time outside of the hunting season.

In my opinion, you'd be much better off to focu on a Fall hunting plot for such a small plot.
