 When I was in the eighth grade, my dad had worked for the big timber companies most of his career. He stepped outside the house and said, son, we have a chance to be on a farm and buy some property. Of course, I had been wanting a bass boat all that time. And he said, we can buy a bass boat, but we can't do both. And he said, what do you want to do? And I said, well, I'd really rather have the land. So that's when we got our start. We bought that first farm in 78 and kept it six years and sold it. I've been doing it on this place for 30 years, taking care of the property. And it's amazing to me how fast that 30 years has gone by. It's just like that. And here we are today. We've got around 1200 acres that we get to hunt on and enjoy. We ride four-wheelers, ATVs, horses. Our primary objective is timber, timber management or growing timber. We plant the loblolly pines, ultimately trying to grow to a chip and saw. We do have a burn program in place every couple of years. We have rotations on about 100 to 200 acres at the time we'll burn. It's been interesting, the burn program for sure. It looks really good after you burn. And it does knock back the competition for a couple of years. It definitely helps. And the wildlife loves it. I've actually seen turkeys come in and the ground will still be smoking from after we burn and they'll walk through there. I guess they like to eat those bugs that are parts. I don't know, but it enhances the wildlife to do that too. Our secondary objective would be wildlife. We have 16 food plots, half of which we plant for the quail. And when I say quail, it's there for the food source, but also cover because the quail that we hunt here are pen rays. So we just can't sustain a wild population, predators, whatnot. So we plant sorghum, pseudangrass and sometimes sun hemp. And that gives us food and cover. Then the other food plots I have are for deer hunting, which is I love to deer hunt. I always have. And then turkey hunting as well. We share the property. I'm always glad to see young people come out the classroom in the forest. I think we've been doing that with a Pleasant Grove Elementary School at Hollis for I think over 20 years. And they come out and have their day here. And I've had Boy Scout troops that would come and camp out and had church groups that would come and camp out do the same thing. So yeah, I love to see the young people get involved with it. Maybe we can pass on love for the land to them. There's something about it, the satisfaction that I get from plowing a food plot, planting trees, harvesting trees, all that and just walking across the land and enjoying it. Just something about it deep inside it gives me satisfaction. And it's just a labor of love that I've been blessed to have done for all this year.
