Another way we’re using the money we raise to make a difference!

The National Wild Turkey Federation’s (NWTF) 50th Annual Convention and Sport Show was held in Nashville, Tennessee, last week.⁠

MDWFP was honored with the Land Stewardship Award in recognition of the Fire on the Forty Initiative - a private lands habitat program that promotes and increases the use of prescribed fire to restore and enhance wildlife habitat across Mississippi.⁠

“This award reflects the strong partnerships and dedicated landowners who make Fire on the Forty possible, and the lasting benefits prescribed fire provides for wildlife habitat and forest health across Mississippi,” said John Gruchy, MDWFP Private Lands Program Coordinator.

Since its inception, Fire on the Forty has focused on educating landowners about the ecological benefits and proper application of prescribed fire, as well as helping offset burning costs through cost-share support. Over the past 15 years, the initiative has helped restore more than 100,000 acres of fire-maintained habitat and reached more than 1,200 landowners through workshops and field days.⁠

We extend our thanks to the NWTF and all partners who have made this program a success in improving habitat for wildlife and supporting sound land stewardship across the state.⁠

Tonight, the Nwtf announced a $500,000 donation to Mississippi State University to create an endowed professorship dedicated to wild turkey research. These monies were donated by the Nwtf National organization as well as the Mississippi Chapter and several other state chapters and other partners.

This endowment will ensure that turkey research continues and is funded for decades to come. It’s also a testament to the Nwtf’s commitment to the wild turkey in Mississippi and the United States!

Yay Mississippi!

It is with much regret that we announce the postponement of our spring Hunting Heritage Banquet.

We look forward to this event every year and this will be the only the second time we’ve had to postpone it (first was for Covid). Scheduling conflicts and some health related issues with some key members of our Committee have necessitated this decision.

We’re tentatively looking at the first two weeks of August for a potential date. Your thoughts on those dates are welcome. We’ll update all of you when a final decision is made.

Thank you all for your support and understanding. We hope to see you all again soon!!
