I have the same situation as you. I planted my drainfield with whitetail clover, and the deer definitely love it. Before I had the clover....we would occasionally see a deer here and there, close to the house. After planting....they were pretty much in the field every day. Sometimes as many as 15 at one time. You have a good opportunity to provide a forage crop in an area void of any. They WILL find it. The good thing about having something like that, is that alot of the deer in the area will adjust their daily routine, to include a trip to your plot. Ultimately, it will increase the number of deer sightings year round. It did for me. Do a soil test, and plant accordingly. Good luck <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
