Hi! I'm a farm wife, mama to two and coffee addict - raking my way through life on the farm, inviting you along. I believe all of our stories matter and that they all relate more than we think.
My husband, two children and I work and live on a beef cattle operation in Milton, NC on the Central NC/VA line. No two days are the same around here and I use this vlog to show the good, the bad, the hard and the rewarding we find in this life. If you like what you see, I'd love for you to subscribe and tell a friend who might enjoy, as well. This community is growing and I love interacting with you all.

Another great video! I have seen water jugs and coolers used for 🔥 to many times 😗. Glad y'all got it wadded up dry .
I am learning about the farm life! Lot's of hard work! Thanks for sharing
AW, love that new hollond tractor and the tedder, yes you got it right first time,..
That video was amazing as always.. you always seem to be so happy I love that 💚💚💚💚
Love the hat, great bale count, keep up the great videos, you got one special family!!!
My Dad was an old timer, and stickler about leaving hay on the ground- we had a dump rake, and had to go over the field to get all the scatterings! Couldn't leave corners, had to mow every piece of grass standing, no rounding the corners
Look at you with clean windows in tractor! Love the music and atmosphere. Cheers and thanks.
You made me laugh so much. The production value was great as well. You are really getting good! Thanks.
The envy, I loved doing this when I was a kid. And the smell of the hay
I can tell you enjoy what you're doing. That makes the work go easier and faster.
I love the sound of the Farmall starting up. I have an H and a 450 Farmall and love how they sound at start up.
Always loved cutting and raking hay,small square baling not so much.
I love that sound, too!
Good Girl! Your are so funny, Doing the Work in the Fields, thinking about the weather and the Maschines beeing greased to Work properly! Your Thoughts are right on the Things, in the Moment you are doing it. That is not normal in these Days. I learned making haye driving a John Deere 710 with my Brother, but they were formed to Cubes and we had to lift them up manualy. I was 7years old in 1972. It ist good to see that there ist Something left. You and your Husband could bei proud. Merry Christmas and a Happy new Year from the Harz Mountains in Germany.
You make a hard job look like so much fun! Keep it up. 😬

Hi from New Zealand,
Looks like America had a hot dry summer. A good feeling getting hay baled, before it rains. Reminds me of when I had to pick up hay bales by hand. Don't do it anymore too old. Thank you for sharing with the world Meredith Bernard.
I’m glad we don’t have to bale small squares eirher
congrats on the very good hay day, keep up the good work.
Thankful for your videos!
Hey enjoy watching your videos takes me back to my young years in east Tennessee cutting and bailing hay
The heartbeat of America, loved this video, I'm not sure how I got here but I'm glad I did!! Have a Happy New Year Meredith and family. :)
Haha well I’m glad you got here too! Hope you’ll come back :)
What can I say...your husbands a lucky man!
Stumbled onto your vid so I just watched 1st time. Loved your humor and fun attitude a lot! You're so pretty! My Son and I make a lot of hay, about 600 acres and 40 acres of corn. I love spending time with him all Summer. It's so rewarding to be with him and teaching him, well there's times he teaches me too. Will go watch more of your videos. Farm on!
Thanks for being here! That’s a lot of hay and a lot of good memories for sure. ☺️
This farmer is a lucky man to have such a "purty lookin" helper. Keep on farmin !!!
Being a farmer myself I love to see that our problems are so similar. I live in Uruguay. The deep south of South America.
I believe you like raking hay. 😁 Glad y’all had a good crop.
Great video Ma'am. Enjoyed your article in Progressive Farmer couple months ago. I would have knew it was yours before I saw your name. Lol. You defiantly have a talent for telling a story. You speak from your heart. It the simple things in life that we should cherish and you do a great job showing it. Being humble is something you don't find much of in people these days . Remember, the Lord shines down on the humble farmers wife. Thank you for opening your gates and making us welcome to your life. My fingers tired now. Lol.thanks.
What a kind comment. Thank you so much for reading and letting me know. And the kind words. 💛
I love coming across videos like this. Im a tractor trailer driver and teach my kids about how its the working man and woman that keeps this country moving. This video is great. I will definitely show my kids this. We see bales all the time ad we live in a semi rural area. Now I can show them how its done. Keep up the good work!! 😊
It was fun ridin' along with ya! Field work is my happy place too. You can see what you've accomplished at the end of the day. Of course we'll be back next time, and bring our friends .Love your videos,love you!
Thanks Lyn!
I used to love baling hay. I never had big equipment like that but still.
Can't beleive I just watched that whole thing....Damn that's a nice smile!
Thanks for hanging in there haha
Yes I just stumbled across the channel and all I have to say is thanks for farming. I know it can be very rewarding and hard work at the same time. Also thanks for sharing...Vic
Thanks for being here!
Thoroughly enjoying, love haying,always have, from cutting to baling, thanks for taking us along, you do so well, except maybe almost knocking the farmer down, but you're a valuable partner in the entire operation, whenever I'd be gone for the day on hay, I'd bring my jug of ice water, lunch and tools in case something broke, wonderful memories, no wonder you're smiling the whole time, oh, and I like how you looked back and forth, at the rake, so many channels they have their head facing the camera, NEVER looking back, thanks AGAIN
Oh gosh I’d be a goner if I never looked back. That was my first lesson...your work is behind you. Thanks Tony!
Amen! Always a good feeling when done and nothing broke, right? Lol great video
Yes’ always!
REALLY GOOD SHIT right there good video love the pony tails Have a wonderful day!
Another great video Meredith. I could smell the hay just watching your video. Just think if it would have been all square bales. Now that's some work!!
Yes I’m glad they weren’t square bales!
First time watching. I liked it. My parents were dairy farmers in Canada way back when. Thanks!
I know it's a year ago- BUT, no matter what happens, every day above the sod is a good day!
I live in the foothills of North Carolina and July 2019 was the hottest month of my life
I im in trinity nc and its melting here this year lol
Just found this video, awesome work! I found it to be a little therapeutic, someone does all the work and I just relax and watch. I love country life, just can't afford it where I live. We used to be "the valley of hearts delight". There used to be many apple orchards and other fruits. Now we are Silicon Valley and the only apples here are on iPhones.
I just happened onto your channel and clicked on it. I really enjoyed it, you are very pretty! Not only looks but attitude, work ethic, sense of humor, etc. I hope your husband realizes how lucky he is and I Subscribed. Thanks for the videos.
Hay! that was cool.
Amazingly beautiful, amazing worker, amazing wife, amazing mother, and teaching herself how to be an amazing cook. Where on God's green earth can a man find a single woman just similar to you? I would say Lawrence is a lucky man, but he also is amazing from what I have seen. Great family and farm. Love ya'll and the videos. Everyone needs a Merdie in their life in some form. Thanks for allowing me in your life, even if it's just thru videos.
Aw thank you!
South Carolina is where they move to.
some of us are in California but nobody knows that because they assume we are all hippies. we ave a small farm town here too! lol
@@jessicalassiter9762 on my way

Your smile and enthusiasm is contagious !
I retired a couple of years ago and moved back home out West . We just built a new home in town but we are also looking for a place out in the country about 50-100 acres next to a nice stream . I want to fish

This is better than TV. I know your husband is thankful everyday for not only a wonderful wife, a great helper on the farm. Keep on fightin’ the good fight.
Thank you!!!!

Interesting music. Play the rest of the album, I would like to hear "Chicken and Waffles."
This one made me smile. God bless you and your family.
Thank you! I’m glad it did 🙂
Thanks for another great video. Your quality control person is doing a great job!!! Your field work brings back many memories. Long hours on the tractor of my grandparents farm. I learned so much there, didn't realize it at the time. I've done the cold steak lunch. HA! My gram used to bring ginger water that she made to us, said it quenched your thirst longer than regular water. She'd bring watermelon to us too, the good kind that you had to spit the seeds out!! Cab tractors with AC, that's awesome. We had no cab tractors, used to be filthy after a day of haying! That's right Farm on!!
Thank you for being here!!
Gorgeous!
Remember you are enough and your fans love you.
Thank you
Ken Yh - that was a deep and meaningful video. it touched me to starting thinking of myself as enough.
My grandpa was bailing hay one time. Had an old wore out pair of Bob overalls on. He went to step over the PTO while it was turning and those old overalls got wrapped up in the PTO and was ripped right off him. Grandma said she'd never forget seeing him walking down off the hill in nothing but a white T shirt and his tighty whiteys.
You must be the very pride and joy to your husband ...amazing !
Steak sandwich and a pack of nabs for later, you got it goin on girl!
haha did you see the look on your husbands face keep up the good work
Way to go girl so proud of you,my husband thinks you are beautiful,and i have to agree,stay safe and keep on farming,america needs more people like you,your husband is one lucky man.god bless you and all the farmers.
Thank you both!
Good job 👍 Meredith like a Pro like you know what you are doing 🤩
"he admitted he was wrong, so thats a win..." lmao
Country girls are the best, I hope I can find one to merry me 😊

Thanks for being here!
So you have big bales and you cannot lie... that was cute, you are some hard working folks, love your channel and I'm from the Bronx. So there.
The deer are eating your hay, perhaps?
11:34: Is that really your husband? Good for him! :-)
Interesting video. Lots of fun. Thanks for sharing. BTW: You're adorable! 5'9" is perfect! I hope your farm is very profitable.
So so beautiful I can not lie
Hi Meredith great video it was nice to see the whole family involved wish we could have some of your weather in the uk it’s been a bit wet which is making drilling wheat a bit of a test for everybody looking forward to next video Peter
Thanks Peter! I wish we could trade weather, too. Take care
Never a dull min over there I tell ya! Nabs it is my friend! Dat be what we call'm around cher also. Now that's how you Git-R-Done!! Nice job done on getting the hay up. Big rain pose to be coming so get ready! Hey don't hog all the rain up this time and send some of it my way please.
Aw I hope you get some! We just got a soaker!
Hello Meridith, Lawrence had his life flash before his eyes LoL oops that was close haha
Haha, I know :P
I don,t believe it i know another couple that is also named Meridith Ochs and her husband Lawrence. She is the author of Rock and Roll Women and had a long running siriusxm show called Freewheelin on the Road Dog ch 146.
Really?! THat's crazy!
Amazing your were so smooth. Get you a steering wheel cover just put it on when your driving simple fix. When will the hats be ready. One more thing missed your cooking on this video but the farmer needed your help... yay you done good!!
You are an awesome babe! Your husband is a lucky man! You are easy on the eyes and not afraid of work... pitching right in like it's supposed to be. I just love it when things go right and success results. Thanks for sharing!
Your a good hand, Like your twin rake. I have an older one that I have to spread out manually. It can be a pain sometimes. We are blessed here in central Texas with all the rain we received so far. We were able to put up enough hay for our operation after the first cutting (about 350 rolls).
My old one was the kind you had to work manually and that's why I love this one so so much! Ha. That's a lot of hay you got - yay!
Not sorry. One of my favorite views of the world. Is from the cab of an old John Deere.
You are hot! Not only looks, but attitude, work ethic, sense of humor, etc. Hope your husband realizes how lucky he is.
I was put on the little Ford 8n tractor pulling a horse-drawn tedder when I was about 13-14. Then graduated to mowing with the side sickle-bar mower when I was 14-15. I only got to rake one time and never got to bale. When the baling was going on, I followed the baler with a pitchfork snagging hay missed by the baler and put it in the next windrow over. You sure do live high on the hog! Steak sandwiches, peanut butter crackers, and such. I usually had maybe an apple, some cheese, some bread, and a can or two of Vienna sausages. Never went hungry though!!! Great video again!!!
Thank you! I was lucky to have that steak leftover ha
Fun and informative, but your adorable personality make your vid's very enjoyable.
She's a worker 4Sure and a good looking Woman .
You must have meant 2,000 rpm look at your tachometer it s maked ×100 so 20 =2,000 Engine rpms and 540 pto speed comes in at 2100 on some models and 1900 on others.
I did. I said it wrong 🤦🏼♀️
This Farm Wife - Meredith Bernard was wondering if someone was going to catch that.
Little things like that i pick up right away as a truck driver a tachometer to me is my tool just like a chalk board is to a school teacher. Even as a kid a tachometer on a John Deere 3020 was like candy in a candy store to me.
Good Lord you are an absolute diamond!!! This is how I spent my summers as a young man...Massey F and John Deere , raking
and bailing and hauling...shelling peas, homemade ice cream, cold watermelon, peaches, and cantelope...had an enormous garden...ate all we could gave the rest away to the family....good times sweet girl!!!!
Excellent video, This Farm Wife -is one of the best channels on RUclips!
Thank you!
You are so pretty and I love your eyes
Good video again you’re one pretty girl and a hard worker good job you’re so beautiful
I used to work our family farm down near Lancaster PA on weekends. I worked the State Transportation during the week. My cousin used to work with me on the farm, she was sweet and fun to be with. You remind me of her a lot. She had passed a while ago, and I miss her. I'm glad that you live your life big and wholesomely, I hope that you have a Merry Christmas and a profitable New Year!
Aw so sorry for your loss. Thanks for being here!
I'm glad to see that you didn't pull those earphones out of your bag and use them. I worked on a Horse Farm making their hay. The farm wife couldn't ride on a tractor without listening to music and you could hear a piece of equipment coming apart on the other side of the field but she was oblivious. Headphones and Equipment don't mix well even from a safety aspect.
