Receive Text UpdatesDixon's love for the outdoors was instant. From the time he was little, he would explore outside with his mom and dad—from finding rocks to build with, hiking, fishing, zoo trips, and more. He is most curious when he is outside. The thing he loves most about nature is creating new adventures on our land and finding something different than the day before.
Deer- he got his love of deer from his dad. Learning everything he can soak up in those moments between a father and son. He always has his binoculars to be able to search for deer and usually ends up looking for all his favorite birds in the trees as well.
Spotting new animals and learning about them. If he finds a new animal, he likes to research it and find out what it eats and all the facts about them. He is always exploring new areas of the creek and land to see what insects or animals he can come across.
