The September 2011 event was so popular, we're going back for another on March 2, 2012.  Food plots have become a popular way to attract white-tailed deer and other wildlife. Although food plots are not a substitute for properly managed, natural habitat, when used in combination with other habitat management techniques they have proven beneficial.  In well managed habitats, food plots and supplemental plantings can compensate for seasonal fluctuations in food availability and the poor nutritional quality of some natural forages. This may help raise the carrying capacity of an area for deer or other wildlife.
