Trapping with New England Naturals

Jake Debow of New England Naturals is an authority on trapping. He builds his life around the outdoors and spends much of his time hunting, but trapping is the thing he is known for. I had the privilege to sit down and learn from Jake about the trapper lifestyle- its history, its current popularity and where it's headed in the future. It truly was one of my favorite interviews I've recorded in a while, and I think Jake's perspectives will draw you in as well.   hokseynativeseeds.com (for CRP and wildlife habitat mixes) theprairiefarm.com (for backyard prairie mixes)
