Organic Spring Food Plot Blend

Season-Focused Nutrition for Early Growth

Our Organic Spring Food Plot Blend combines Alfalfa, Medium Red Clover, and Ladino Red Clover to deliver fast-germinating, nutrient-rich perennial forage when wildlife needs it most. This perennial blend can last multiple seasons to provide a lush, high-energy food source that encourages early spring growth, attracts deer and other wildlife, and helps set the stage for strong herd health throughout the season.

Whether you’re frost seeding or planting after the last frost, this organic mix is built to establish quickly and perform reliably under grazing pressure and variable spring conditions.

Grow healthier wildlife. Build better habitat. Plant with confidence.

Benefits for Wildlife

  • Fast-establishing perennial forage to jump-start nutrition after winter
  • High-energy species promote antler development, lactation, and body weight
  • Organic seeds support confident plant establishment without synthetic coatings
  • Attracts deer, turkey, and other game species during a critical feeding period
  • Encourages repeat visits and longer stays on your food plot

Planting Guidelines

  • Seeding Rate: 12 lb per acre
  • Planting Depth: ¼–½ inch (ensure good seed-to-soil contact)
  • Best Planting Windows:
    • Frost seeding & early spring (soil temps ~50°F+)
    • After last frost through late spring
  • Site Prep:
    • Soil test recommended to tailor fertility and pH
    • Remove existing vegetation for best establishment

Soil & Maintenance Tips

  • Conduct a soil test prior to planting and adjust pH to recommended range
  • Incorporate phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) based on soil test recommendations
  • Avoid deep burial of seeds—keep planting shallow for consistent emergence
  • Light weed pressure management early in the season can improve success
  • Mowing can help reduce weed pressure

Frequently Asked Questions

Is your organic seed certified?

Yes. Our organic seed and mixes are certified by MOSA Certified Organic.

Will this come back next year?

Yes. This is a perennial mix and will last for a few years if well maintained.

When should I plant the Organic Spring Food Plot Blend?

Plant after your last expected frost once soil temperatures consistently reach 50°F or higher. In some regions, it can also be frost-seeded in very early spring to take advantage of natural freeze-thaw cycles.

How much seed do I need per acre?

The recommended seeding rate is approximately 12 lb per acre. Always adjust slightly based on your planting method and seedbed conditions.

How deep should I plant the seed?

Plant at approximately 1/4" to 1/2" deep. If broadcasting, ensure good seed-to-soil contact by cultipacking or lightly dragging after spreading.

What wildlife will this blend attract?

This spring blend is formulated to attract deer, turkey, and other game species by providing lush forage during a critical early-season growth period.

Do I need to fertilize or prepare the soil?

For best results, conduct a soil test and amend according to recommendations. Proper pH and nutrient levels will significantly improve germination, growth, and overall plot performance.
