I grew up in Millersburg. I worked on a farm in Lykens that I hunt every summer. It's a hike from Pottstown, but well worth it.

I'm doubting you will find too many farmers in the Hershey area willing to allow you to hunt their land...since it's such a commercial area now.

Are groundhogs edible?

I hear the young ones are good eating. I probably could have saved the one I shot tonight, but I didn't want to gross out my wife. She was with me at the club and she would have freaked if I would have bagged Mr. No Brainer.

aubie chances are you had my dad for a high school shop teacher if you grew up in millersburg, I figured it was a slim chance on finding anyone around hershey to let my hunt hogs, I have also considered the fact of eating groundhogs considering they are not much different than rabbits, but have not brought myself to that yet

If my dog doesn't eat it, I'm not eating it.
