This is Huntin’ Land, the podcast for landowners and land hunters. If you like to stay up to date on hunting tactics, land management, land values, and land market dynamics, this is the podcast for you. On this episode, Joe and Clint talk with Michael Hunter, the chef/owner of critically acclaimed restaurant Antler in Toronto, Ontario, and author of the all-new cookbook, The Hunter Chef. Michael’s restaurant is devoted to serving wild game and fish in a major metropolitan city and he is here today to answer the question, “what does gamey meat taste like.” Also, he teaches us how to prepare our wild game dishes without that “gamey taste.”
As a landowner, it is important to know what your land is worth. You may find yourself asking the questions like, “how much is my land worth today,” “how much is my land worth per acre,” “how much is timberland worth,” “what is my farmland worth,” “how much is agricultural land worth,” and other such questions. Many factors go in to determining the value of land and seeking out the wisdom of experts is a great place to find the answers to your questions.
Each week, on the Huntin’ Land Podcast, we will bring in various experts to help provide answers to the important questions landowners have. This week we check in with President of National Land Realty, Jason Burbage, for our “How Much Is My Land Worth” segment.
