Nutrient-Rich Perennial Forage for Wildlife
Hale Habitat & Seed’s Chicory (Cichorium intybus) is a deep-rooted perennial herb valued for its high protein content, drought tolerance, and strong attraction for deer, turkey, and other wildlife. With nutrient-rich leaves and a deep taproot that helps improve soil health, chicory delivers dependable summer and fall forage when other plants begin to fade.
Chicory’s long growing season and perennial nature make it a versatile choice for standalone plots or mixed into perennial blends for long-term attraction and nutrition.
Grow reliable forage. Improve soil health. Plant with confidence.
Coated Seed Option Available
We also offer chicory seed with an optional coating to improve handling and early establishment. The coating aids in seed flow and can help support uniform emergence under variable soil conditions.
- Enhanced seed flow and metering in seeders and spreaders
- Improved seed-to-soil contact for more consistent germination
- Helps support early seedling vigor in challenging soil conditions
- No change to the quality or forage value of the chicory itself
Benefits for Wildlife
- High protein forage (up to ~20% protein) attractive to deer, turkey, and small game
- Deep taproot improves drought tolerance and access to subsoil moisture
- Perennial stand provides forage over multiple seasons
- Produces abundant leafy growth through summer and into fall
- Helps improve soil structure and break up compacted layers
Planting Guidelines
- Seeding Rate: 4–8 lb per acre drilled; 8–10 lb per acre broadcast
- Planting Depth: ¼–½ inch (ensure good seed-to-soil contact)
-
Best Planting Windows:
- Spring (April–June) when soil temps reach 50–65°F
- Late summer (August–September) for late season and fall forage
-
Site Prep:
- Prepare a clean, firm seedbed free of competing vegetation
- Drag or cultipack after broadcast seeding to improve seed contact
Soil & Maintenance Tips
- Conduct a soil test and adjust pH to 6.0–7.0 for optimal growth
- Chicory benefits from moderate phosphorus and potassium based on soil test results
- Does not generally need excessive nitrogen; moderate N can support early growth
- Drought tolerant once established but prefers well-drained soils
Herbicide Use for Chicory
Chicory can be sensitive to weed competition in early stages, so proper weed control is important to establishment. Herbicides can be part of an effective program when used carefully and according to label directions.
- Use only herbicides labeled for chicory to avoid crop injury
- Pre-emergence options such as Prowl (Pendimethalin) or Sencor (Metribuzin) may help control grasses and broadleaf weeds before they emerge
- Post-emergence products like 2,4-D can manage broadleaf weeds — but apply with caution on young chicory stands
- Always follow herbicide label timing, rates, and safety instructions
- Consult local extension guides for region-specific recommendations
Always read and follow pesticide label instructions. The label is the law.

High quality comfortable shoes from Rockport
Size: 13 Wide, Color: Grey Nubuck, Size: 13 Wide, Color: Grey Nubuck
I've been a fan of Rockport shoes since buying my first pair in the 1980's. I actually still have that pair and had them resoled once.
This shoe has the style and profile of a dress shoe but is finished in a nice smooth suede-like grey color. Typical of Rockport shoes, they are flexible and lightweight. The upper is genuine leather, something getting harder to find in reasonably priced quality shoes. That should make these more durable than artificial leather.
The insole is sculpted and soft with just a bit of memory foam padding with good arch support. They are removable and I assume replaceable.
The soles are flexible and grippy, and the heel is low and comfortable. I ordered my usual size, 13W and they fit well, just a tiny bit tight on the top where they lace if wearing thick socks until they stretch a bit. Due to the shape of the toe box they look a little long, but there is plenty of toe space.
These were very comfortable, true to size, well made and very nice looking shoes. I expect them to be durable and last a long time as all of my other Rockport shoes have in the past. These would look great with jeans or khaki's or even with more dressy clothing, they can be casual or dressy. Even though these are well made and genuine leather with Rockport's reputation for comfort and quality they cost less than many sneakers.

Rockport makes great shoe wear
Size: 11.5 Wide, Color: Dark Taupe Suede
I have owned Rockport shoes before and this pair lives up to the brand’s reputation for comfort. Right out of the box they felt broken in with very little adjustment period. The genuine leather upper looks nice and gives the shoe a more polished appearance than many casual options while still being comfortable enough for daily wear. The cushioning is one of the strongest features. The truTECH system does a good job absorbing impact and provides noticeable comfort during long days on my feet. The removable insoles add versatility and make it easy to customize the fit or use orthotics if needed. The quality appears very good with clean stitching and solid construction throughout. The leather feels durable and should age well with normal use. Ease of use is excellent since they slip on easily and require very little maintenance beyond occasional cleaning and conditioning. Size was accurate for me and the availability of different widths is a major advantage. Compatibility with different foot shapes is often overlooked but Rockport does a good job here. Value for money is strong considering the comfort quality and durability. Overall these are comfortable well-made shoes that work equally well for the office casual outings or everyday wear.

So Comfortable!
Size: 10.5, Color: Dark Taupe Suede, Size: 10.5, Color: Dark Taupe Suede
These are easily some of the most comfortable dress shoes I have ever owned. From the first time I put them on, they felt broken in and required very little adjustment. The fit is excellent, providing plenty of room in the toe box without squeezing or cramping my toes on the sides, which is often a problem with dress shoes.
The suede is soft, supple, and feels like a quality material rather than the stiff suede found on many lower-priced shoes. The craftsmanship appears solid, and the shoes have a refined look that works well for both business and casual occasions. They are true to size and fit exactly as expected.
I was also pleasantly surprised by how lightweight they feel while still offering good support throughout the day. Based on the quality of the suede and construction, I expect them to hold up well over time. The suede is soft enough to be comfortable but seems durable enough to handle occasional rain and everyday wear.

A good shoe from a trusted brand
Size: 13 Wide, Color: Medium Natural Nubuck, Size: 13 Wide, Color: Medium Natural Nubuck
I'm mostly happy with these so far. They're generally well made, they look great, and I know they'll last a long time. They're real leather, which is always greatly appreciated in this synthetic era. They are pretty dang supportive and comfortable overall. They're lightweight and the price is right.
But there are a few negatives, mainly on the comfort front. The right shoe fits perfectly, but the left one isn't quite right. It feels like the top of the heel is stitched a little too tight, such that it digs into the back of my heel when I walk. Now, this isn't uncommon for me with new shoes, but I do kind of expect better from Rockport. The other issue is that the shoes feel a little bit slippery on low pile carpets and tile. Now I'm sure both of those issues are temporary, and will resolve as the shoes break in. Still, they're noticeable.
What can I say? They're Rockports. You know they're going to be solid shoes. I almost love these shoes, and really, I'm sure in a few months, when they're fully broken in, I will love them unreservedly. But not quite yet.

Sharp looking dress shoes
Size: 14 Wide, Color: Medium Natural Nubuck
These shoes look great in person and have a clean, classic style that works well for the office, church, or more formal occasions. The natural nubuck gives them a nice appearance without being overly flashy, and they look more expensive than they actually are.
The fit was good in the wide size, and they were comfortable right out of the box. The overall quality seems very good, with solid construction and materials that feel like they should hold up well over time. For the price, they're a good value and a nice option if you're looking for a sharp looking pair of dress shoes.
