Twice each year, Wildlife Mississippi makes low-cost seed available to private landowners
and public land managers for wildlife plantings. When planted properly, the seed
will be utilized by a variety of wildlife. White-tailed deer, wild turkey, northern
bobwhite, mourning dove, waterfowl and many species of songbirds will benefit from
plantings.
Winter wheat seed will be available through Wildlife Habitat Seed Program this fall. All seed has been treated and has excellent germination rates.
Those ordering seed will be required to pick it up at distribution sites in Amory,
Greenville, Hattiesburg or Flowood.

In the event of a shortage of seed, the orders will be filled on a first-come, first-served
basis. On average, our fall seed distribution begins mid-September. If you desire
to plant earlier than this, this program may not be for you. We will contact you
by phone and/or mail to ensure that you are aware of your pickup location, dates,
and times. This will be done after we have received all seed, typically two weeks
prior to distribution. Failure to pick-up your seed order at the time of distribution
will result in loss of payment and seed.
Seed pickup dates will be announced as soon as possible on this page and on
Wildlife Mississippi's Facebook page.
