Hunters and landowners, listen up! If you're looking for a no-fuss, high-performance food plot mix that deer will love all the way into winter, try \The Whole Works.\ It's our new blend for 2025, mixing fast-growing annual clovers with nutritious brassicas (turnips).
Why it works so well: The clovers establish quickly alongside the brassicas, both growing to about 2-3 feet tall. We've balanced the mix so the brassicas don't shade out the clover – you get a perfect, diverse buffet. The star clover here is FIXatioN Balansa, which is crazy cold-tolerant (survives down to -14°F!), so this plot stays green and attractive long after other plants have died back.
It's packed with protein, easy to grow with minimal maintenance, and provides variety – deer can browse the leafy clover and brassica tops, then dig up the tasty turnip roots later in the season. Planting rate is about 8-10 lbs per acre if you broadcast it, or 7-8 lbs per acre if you drill it. This bag covers 1/2 an acre.
For a reliable, cold-hardy food source that pulls and holds deer on your property, give The Whole Works a shot this fall.
