On an unseasonably warm November day, hunter Cole Cushman loaded his pickup truck with camouflage gear, bright orange hats and a Browning 7 mm rifle for a hunt deep in the Virginia woods.The autumn and winter months mark deer season for much of the United States, and for Cushman and other hunters across the country, a chance to feed their neighbors through various local hunger-relief programs.“A lot of times it’s the only meat people will get,” said Cushman, who donates most of his seasonal haul to a Virginia organization called Hunters for the Hungry. “It’s organic, free-ranged. It’s a third of the fat as beef. It’s about as healthy as anyone can get.”
