A game feeder includes a housing having a plurality of support legs that elevated it above an underlying surface. Superimposed on the housing is a pivotal lid that selectively exposes a battery-powered winch mounted on the upper surface of the cap. Depending from the lower end of the housing is a feed hopper having an automated dispenser that projects feed to the surrounding area at desired times and for a desired duration. Using the winch, a hunter can easily reload the hopper by lowering it to ground level.
