Bruce: You know, I think about that, and just take us back to when you first started hearing about food plots. I know you worked with, you know, a grant a long time, where you were an intern, and did lots of things from them. But, you know, let’s go down memory lane because, as far as I know, you know, we hunted Eddie’s corn, alfalfa, or beans. Adam: That’s right. I don’t know the food plot history. You know, we talked about that pre-recording, but I would suspect, from what I know about food plotting, is people, farmers were planting alfalfa, and wheat fields, and oats, and all these things, turnips, and they realize the deer were liking them, and realize, “You know, maybe I should devote a little area to the wildlife and have that to hunt over?” I would suspect that’s where food plotting originated. The first food plot that I planted, or my family planted…I was right around 10 years old, so, for me, I’ve been planting food plots for about 20 years, and I started with planting oats and wheat, and then turnips. And it was a learning experience for me to start planting the first food plots because we didn’t know what the heck we were doing. All we knew was it was replicating a garden for the wildlife. And so, you know, looking back, the amount of work we did, I can remember the first…one of the first food plots we planted, and actually it’s still on the family farm in this area, and we call it the “old food plot,” to where it was the original one, and we would go in with the two-bottom plow, turn the soil all the way over, and then we would come back in with the disc, and we’d have to disc it a couple of times just to kind of get it somewhat smoothed out. Sometimes we had to harrow it, and then we would broadcast the seed, and then we would try and drag it. There was a couple food plots where early on we didn’t have a drag, and we would cut down cedar trees, eastern redcedar trees, and then drag them by hand to try and cover up the seed. That’s how far back it goes for me on planting food plots. And I remember the first couple of times we did that, we would go in and spray…hand-spray Miracle-Gro on ’em, and we were having turnips just this big. Oh, my gosh, [inaudible 00:05:38] we’d die and gone to heaven. Unfortunately, at that time at the farm, there wasn’t many deer. So it would be a couple of doe groups and young bucks would come in, but we never saw any good bucks on those food plots. Looking back, it was because we were in there. Every time we went to the farm, which was almost every other day, we’d be in there poking around, looking to see how it’s growing. So, it’s definitely…it’s changed a lot for us. Bruce: Yeah. It sure has. And back when I was growing up…I was born in New England, actually, Rhode Island, and my neighbor used to take me trout fishing, and we went to his family farm. You know, wasn’t a big farm, 100 acres, 120 acres, but they had the old building…I mean, quintessential, you know, what you think of an old run-down farm, but it had that crabapple. It had that apple orchard, and that’s the first buck…that’s the first whitetail deer I ever saw. We’d go in there in the morning, slip in there, and they’d be, you know, munching, or we’d go in the evening, catch some trout, and there they’d be. They, you know, bounce away, and go, “What’s that?” And, I mean, this is back when there weren’t a…whole hell of a lot of deer in Rhode Island. But it was so…you know, it was perfect habitat. You think back and it’s just like…so that was a food plot. I mean, the apple trees were deadly, right time, right season. And we’re gonna talk about that in the second part. You know, you got to give them what they want when they want it. And I’d be interested, for people to write you, how would they get ahold of you if they want to make some comment about the historical aspects of fo
