Design Perennial Food Plots

Fruit & Nut Trees to Attract Wildlife

Perennial food plots can be designed to attract wildlife year after year. Plant hardy fall-dropping nut crops like Chestnuts, Hazelnuts, and Hickories to entice Deer, Turkey, and other wild game each season. Keep them coming back with sweet treats like Pawpaws or even Persimmons which in some cases can drop as late as December. Choose from our selection of berries and pollinator plants to attract birds and butterflies.

Naturally Grown Cold Hardy Plants
At BearFruit Nursery we are driven by our passion to steward our land in a manner that allows us to care for people and generate abundant harvests. We never use pesticides or herbicides on our plants. Our inputs include locally sourced wood chip mulch and grass mulch, leaf mulch, and compost that we collect on our site. We grow our plants outside in the ground or in raised beds.
