Me neither what are they?

I've never heard of them.

I'm thinking "rutabega" or some type of brassica?

titleist - While its true a couple acres of food will not compare to MANY acres of beans & corn - Its what happens after the farmer Harvests the corn & beans that really matters. Besides - Since you are located in between the large food sources - Its VERY likely that the deer will bed on the plot you posted a picture of.

Standing corn when all else has been harvested - can be a REAL MAGNET - so can a real GREEN fall crop (when everything else is brown) like clover, rape, or rye.

I'd probably try several to see what the best results were.

With FH on this... Try on of the fall/winter early spring mixes. Contact me and we will work with you on a new blend. We need a trial field in the harsh north.

I PM'd you LunchBucket.
