We gave (5) deer away last year to (5)seperate families that otherwise would not have had meat for the winter. Every Sunday throughout the winter, I make a HUGE pot of soup and pass it out to (3) older and widowed gentlemen to eat. They usually get about 6 meals out of the soup each. In the summer, we have a large garden but I don't give much fresh veggies away. I usually end up canning or freezing it. Then I can use it for when I make my soups or give away jars already prepared.<br /><br />We don't do this for the thank you's either. It makes us feel good to help others which is enough for us.LB @ Bullets And Biscuitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05243995967326067900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9018046882680187580.post-13813230941506562102011-11-15T05:26:57.315-08:002011-11-15T05:26:57.315-08:00Great Post Tommy! You're doing a great thing. ...Great Post Tommy! You're doing a great thing. That's another thing most people don't know about hunters/fishermen how much they give just on their own and how many families are helped by them on a personal level that don't hunt themselves. Great post and great motivation for me to plant a big garden next year!Will Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01116006630767389054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9018046882680187580.post-58882136639870342982011-11-15T01:22:41.950-08:002011-11-15T01:22:41.950-08:00Well said, Tommy.

With my brother and I helping we grew an insanely huge garden. Even though we didn't have much we always shared our veggies with others. My dad taught me to hunt to help feed our family, too. It didn't take long that we would get two or three deer and started sharing with families that needed it. Something I still do to this day. Thanks for sharing this post. I hope other follow and help others in need, too.Albert Quackenbushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05601926880788750927noreply@blogger.com
