Forb Feast Chicory is a hardy, deep-rooted perennial that delivers nutrient-rich forage and supports long-term soil health with beautiful blue flowers. Its mineral-rich leaves are highly digestible for livestock—and irresistible to deer. Used as a sacrificial crop, chicory can draw heavy browsing pressure away from young trees, gardens, or more sensitive plantings, giving them a chance to establish.
Drought-tolerant and quick to regrow after grazing, chicory thrives in a variety of soils and works beautifully in silvopasture, wildlife plots, and regenerative grazing systems.
