- Creating A Future Deer Mecca
It's been a busy Spring full of land projects, including the one I've been most excited about since I purchased my property. I show what I've been up to, which includes planting about 6000 trees, and how it will impact the future of this piece. I also show a quick hunt that we hosted this spring with the Helping Heroes Foundation. If you want to check out what they are doing or offer support, visit helpingheroesf.... Thanks for watching!

I would rather build a deer paradise myself instead of being handed one. Sweat equity on land is almost as fun as the hunting. I love the entire process.
I agree 100%. The harder it is, the more rewarding it is.
I also agree with that. 25 years of work on making 80 acres into a hunting paradise. The last day of hunting is the 1st day of working on next year’s hunting season
Jared, you should tell Bill there is tree planting equipment like this. I think he has been doing all of his with a butter knife! 🤣All jokes aside, it is very cool to have watched your progression from early MWW to now, literally living your big dreams Bill always talked about.
Haha! That sounds about right! Appreciate you as always Ben
thank you for helping our fellow Vets. keep the vids coming.
Everything is looking great Jared!
Thanks Eric!
Nice job Jared can't wait to see what it turns into!
Thanks Scott, me too!
I am a twelve year Army veteren who fell in love with a German Beauty! Feel very comfortable with my choice to stay in Germany 40 years later but do admit my hunting and fishing. Only the best for you and your family Jared.
I appreciate it Ralph, thank you for your service! All the best.
Oh, to go back 40 years. I wish i would have started way back when. But hunting life was different for us kids then. And i was once told, the best time to plant a tree, is yesterday. Looking forward to #chasingnovember this year. C'mon October!!💪🏻🏹
And the second best time is today! Thanks Dwain, appreciate you watching
What a awesome plan and idea, a lot of work but I’m sure it will all pay off ten fold
Thanks Mark. Definitely a ton of work, but it's what I love doing. Appreciate you watching!
Looks good Jared, lookin forward to fall already!
Thanks man, same here!
Great episode Jared, hope you hold onto the farm long enough sonwe can see how that field design turns out! Definitely have the wheels spinning in my head.
Thanks Alex. I will definitely keep you posted if I can. I can't wait to see how it changes everything, it will be fun to watch.
Great to see new content Jared
Thanks Russ, sorry for the hiatus!
No apologies necessary my friend!
This is freaking awesome man! Love the plan on this new slate area. Super cool man and great job.
Thanks man, glad you liked it. I think it's going to a be a really cool transformation over the years.
@jaredmills quick question, off topic... do you plan to hunt that buck with the long bow, you were going after late season, again? I'd really love to see that!
Nice plan, but it would have been better to switch your tree planting with the native grasses. Or have stripes of each next to each other
Will be interesting to see follow up this winter. Hoping they don’t get browsed to hard with no tubes
Thanks Jason. Yes I'm sure some will, and already have, but 600 trees to the acre there is a lot of trees, so the majority I'm sure will make it. A lot of quality food in close proximity too. Appreciate you watching!
Been patiently waiting for a Jared Mills video notification! Awesome plan you drew up for your CRP field! If you’re looking for video ideas, sure would like to see a breakdown of what CRP plans you went with and how a person goes about enrolling land into CRP.
I know, sorry for the hiatus, it's been a busy Spring! That's a good idea, I'd be happy to talk through it, just wasn't sure how interesting that'd be for most guys. I'll keep it in mind, thanks for that
Jared- its june 12th here in central WI. I want to buy your food plot seed. Will mow, kill, pH and adjust, then plant. Plant by 7/10. A pair of 1/2 acre plots on 40 acres. Looking for your ideal recommendations. Thank you!
Hey Kevin- Sounds like you've got a good plan in place. Are your 1/2 acre plots close by each other? Is there plenty of other food around? Feel free to email me directly jaredjamesmills@gmail.com if that is easier, I'm happy to help. Thanks for the support!
Great video as always, which mapping app were you using in the tractor? Or was it an actual gps system?
Thanks Brant. That was an actual GPS. It's pretty wild tech to me, but super handy when it comes to things like planting and spraying
I think for alot of hunters like us, we tend to spend our younger years going from property to property, just taking deer. When we were young, we done alot of taking, without much thought of giving back, at least for me, that was the case. As i got older and bought my own land, i felt the need to give back to the wildlife in any way i could. I now enjoy building wildlife habitat, and just giving back, probably more than i do the actual hunting of the animals that call that habitat home. You're a good guy, not afraid of hard work. Good job!
I would agree. I know I didn't think about it much when I was younger. Part of that is not having the resources back then and also just not really knowing or being introduced to the land and wildlife management side. But now, it's become most of the fun for me. Thanks for watching!
Should you have any interest in a tree that grows 4-6ft a yr. Look into paulowina ( empress tree). They are of no food source for deer but provide cover travel ways etc. In a hurry. The Japanese buy them at maturity to fulfill an old tradition of making chests for young brides. Maybe you have seen them, they grow 24-28" ) leaves. I planted 3000 trees with my dad and bro 62 yrs ago on his mt. Land. That long long way down the road you mentioned has come and is going. Time flies when you're living life. Be well.
Interesting, I hadn't heard of that one yet, thanks for the suggestion. And I hear you, it's scary how fast time goes by these days. Thanks for watching and take care
@@jaredmills please dont bother to look into this tree... Its an invasive mess. They were said to grow up to 12' a year for the resale of the lumber and it never came to fruition. Most poeple who planted them, cursed the day. I looked into it 20 years ago and am glad I didnt. I went into the cuttings world instead for creating habitat and screening.
I believe I may have mis spoke about paulownia as a food source. turns out the leaves are high in protein, nitrogen,fat and sugars. as high as bean leaves. sometimes you can find them growing near industrial sites as the seeds were often used as packing material. it is classified as a hardwood. i have seen a forest grow in no time. they are for sale. best regards.
Jared, Farms looking great, sure that was a lot of work, doing our thing on our new Missouri farm last weekend, blinds, stands, food. Following along as usual, Ryan in Michigan
Good stuff Ryan, never a shortage of things to do! Best of luck!
Congrats, Jared. Feels great to be able to do with your land what you want to. Look forward to see how it progresses and see the deer!
For sure, thanks! I'm excited to see how it progresses too
That’s going to be an epic spot one day man! Excited to see it! I’m scared to plant trees since I don’t know where to start. Think I’ll just dive into it soon
I think that's the best way to do it. Obviously there are some good resources out there you can learn from but I'm always of the mindset you just have to do it. Thanks for watching!
contact the local forester and get their help, they are a great rescourse
Jared, Thank You for what you do for our veterans ❤️
For without them,We all wouldn't be able to do what we do today!
Awesome work on the farm.
For sure Scott, thank you for the support.
Wow!!!! Thanks Jared, truly looks amazing. Can`t wait to watch it grow.
Great video Jared, you are really doing the right things to take that new farm to the next level! I hope you do ok without tubing or caging the new trees, here in GA they would all be browsed to a nub quickly. Keep up the good work!!
Thanks! Hope all is well. And yeah if I had planted at a smaller quantity, I'm sure it'd be worth tubing. But the goal was to plant enough that even with browse pressure, plenty will still thrive. Good luck this year!
Very cool and EXTREMELY rewarding!!
Absolutely! Thanks guys!
The patience is definitely the hard part. Hopefully you hold on to this place for awhile and we get to see the long term progress.. That's the hard part as a viewer. We get vested in the process and then never get to see it.
I hear you. That's my biggest "weakness" when it comes to land in general. I'd be smart to keep moving properties and building but like you said, I get vested and fall in love with these pieces and don't ever want to get rid of them. Thanks for watching!
Farm looks good Jared, can’t wait to see how it looks this summer going into the fall.
Same, thanks Mitchell!
Looks like an awesome layout man!!! Look forward to a future update!
I will for sure, thanks Mark!
Looks great man!
Thanks man! Hope all is well
What 2 row planter did yall go with?
We bought it used online, I believe it was a John Deere 7000 cut down to a 2-row. We got it with the no till coulters.
@@jaredmills thanks
