Millions know Chuck Leavell from decades on stage with The Rolling Stones, but his passion for forestry and land stewardship has grown into something just as meaningful. Through Charlane Plantation, Chuck has spent years championing responsible forest management, conservation, and education around sustainable forestry practices.

In the conversation, Chuck shares how forestry became part of his family legacy, and how careful land management improves wildlife habitat, forest health, and long-term sustainability.

Daniel and Chuck also dig into how forestry mulching creates cleaner understory conditions, improves accessibility, reduces fire risk, and lets forests thrive with minimal ground disturbance — exactly the kind of work the Gyro-Trac GT-25 was built for.

Charlane Plantation is known not only for exceptional land stewardship but for unforgettable Southern hospitality. Guests travel from across the country for quail, turkey, and deer hunting paired with first-class accommodations, outstanding meals, and evenings spent sharing stories and fellowship.

Quail hunting here is done in the traditional Southern manner, with expertly trained dogs, premier territory, experienced guides, and a deep appreciation for the outdoors and conservation.

The plantation offers roughly 2,000 acres of award-winning forests with opportunities for quail, turkey, and deer hunting, along with warm hospitality and unforgettable outdoor experiences.
