Alachua, FL (June 19, 2025) – Planting grapes from Chestnut Hill Outdoors provides added food and cover for wildlife.
Most mast orchards are designed and planted to attract and hold wildlife in the fall. Adding soft mast-like grapes will widen the attraction window and help fill nutritional gaps in the spring and summer. They offer options for a variety of species other than deer and will produce fruit within a year or two of planting. Eventually, grapevines will form dense thickets that provide security cover for smaller species and young wildlife.
Chestnut Hill Outdoors offers three varieties–Alachua Muscadine, Southern Home Muscadine, and Welder Muscadine. In addition to providing food and cover, their fruits are also perfect for making wine, jams, or eating straight off the vine. Unlike many other soft mast species, grapes prefer slightly acidic soil (pH 6.0-6.5) and will tolerate moderate alkalinity. This offers more options for where to plant them.
Planting grapes from Chestnut Hill Outdoors provides soft mast during a critical nutritional period, year-round cover for wildlife, and a bonus for humans who choose to use their crop.
