Reply to Do you hunt/ fish/ trap in VT? What is your favorite type of game and why? Any cool stories? Tell me everything!! by -PineMarten
Hunt for turkey, deer, grouse. I prefer to fly fish but with young kids do a lot of worm bobbing out of my canoe for perch/panfish.
I hunted only a little bit growing up. It was something I really wanted to get into more after moving here. I was really lucky that the first place I rented in Roxbury, a neighbor took me under his wing and taught me a lot. I never killed anything with him, but after buying a place and moving, I killed a turkey on opening day of spring season by myself, and that fall, stalked and shot an 8 point 175lb deer on my own my property.

Tell that to Vermont Compost, where they have hundreds of laying hens they feed entirely without supplemental grain. Feeding chickens compost is a very common part of a sustainable food production system. They generate food while breaking down kitchen scraps more quickly into nitrogen-rich manure.

Or we're just more aware of it, hence trying to read about it online?

I think this is a disagreement on terms. I don't consider decapitating a deer for the mount to be field dressing. Field dressing is gutting the deer to prevent spoilage, reduce drag out weight, and help start cooling the body cavity.

Ah yes I see he espouses the position of “just the tip” when it comes to insurrection.

My step-brother got married in Rhode Island on his in-laws property. The tents they put up had to have exit signs on them, even though the walls were only down on one side. I thought it was the strangest thing until I remembered that fire and assumed they made code incredibly rigorous after that.
