A dispensing system store and selectively dispenses granular products, such as corn, nuts, grain, or animal feed pellets, or for inedibles such as roadway salt, sand, gravel, fertilizer, seeds, or the like. The system includes a main housing with a storage hopper and, typically, at least one other internal area or region for additional components, such as a camera or a cable spool. The storage hopper has a lower dispensing portion and an upper filling portion. A flexible securing member secures the main housing to a tree or other support surface. The securing member is extendable, retractable, and lockable relative to storage hopper by a retractor at the housing, and a distal end is selectively attachable to a receiving portion at the main housing, so that the securing member may be looped around a tree. Optionally, a game camera is mountable in the main housing.
