After a hunt in Iowa for pheasants and bobwhite quail, Travis sits down with Nicolas Lirio & Kent Boucher from Hoksey Native Seeds to talk about losing their founder (Nic’s father) to cancer, and Nicolas taking over at their prairie farm. It’s a story with laughs and tears that will affect hunters around the country who may one day walk in a wildlife habitat with seeds grown on their farm. Nicolas shares his personal struggles with taking over the family farm and his new mission to make our world a better place. Kent explains his own challenges learning how to grow and harvest native seeds to keep the farm productive. And of course, we give a field report from our late-season hunt. @theprairiefarm @hokseynativeseeds Presented by: Walton’s (waltons.com/) OnX Maps (onxmaps.com/) Aluma Trailers (alumaklm.com) GAIM Hunting & Shooting Simulator ( https://alnk.to/74wKReb ) Hunt Huron ( HuntHuronsd.com ), Federal Premium Ammunition ( federalpremium.com/ ) Hunt North Dakota ( helloND.com/ ) Lucky Duck Premium Decoys ( luckyduck.com/ ) & Samaritan Tire ( samaritantire.com/ )
