Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry was featured in a segment of “Maryland Farm and Harvest.”
Deer can present a significant challenge to farmers due to crop damage. Farmers, hunters and meat processors can partner to help control the deer population and feed the hungry. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources helps manage deer damage by issuing special year-long permits for farms that have crops damaged by deer.
In the episode, Josh Wilson, Executive Director of Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry, shares how deer donated to FHFH by hunters helps feed the hungry as well as control the deer population.
