@@snappingbear Sadly, you'll never hear about it thru regular media outlets. All you ever hear from them is how evil agriculture is & how cattle must be fitted with catalytic converters immediately or we'll all die 😂😂😂 I never heard such ridiculous rubbish in my life!
@@acemobile9806 its so crazy. Agriculture is evil and people who eat cows are evil but if everyone in the world turned vegan all you would see is Agriculture land and it still wouldn't be enough to sustain the US. Not to mention we would have nothing to trade for export cause we would need all the grains and vegetables and stuff so prices of good we trade for will also ski rocket along with food prices. Vegans need to stop pushing that eating meat is so evil cause they won't like a world where everyone is vegan. So stfu and let me eat me lol. Dirty libs
I live in Georgia, we have what is, the largest exposed granite monolith, in the united states, "Stone Mountain" It's outreach covers, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina, and some parts of Florida, that's ah lot of rock. With Georgia Red Clay, and rock everywhere, digging anything is ah bugger !
I'm blown away with how clean this place is. This family goes beyond to get this product out for us. I've never seen anything like this. Just very impressed
I'm an "over the road" general freight trucker, which means I get to drive all over this beautiful Country of ours. I have driven day after day for many years past similar operations when in Dairy country and also in corn country like you and Grant farm. I'm from a more urban and suburban type community so I'm always fascinated just to drive through these type of places and attempt to imagine what I can't see at high speed glance, such as how the day to day operations and the lives of these people and the time and tasks that they perform on a daily basis. Thank you for taking the time to perform these highly detailed and informative tours, and providing us "average Joe" type folks like myself an opportunity to see how it all works.
It is such a pleasure to watch You Laura and Grant. I am sure You Two make Your Families Proud. That is some operation. I am 71 yrs old and the Dairies of my Youth are a far cry from todays operations. Thanks for this opportunity to come along on Your tours.
LOL, the dairies of my youth were completely manual! Had to lug the unit over to the cow, plug it into the vacuum line, wipe the utter, place the suckers and then haul the can to the vat and dump it when full...
I'm glad these folks let you video this four us. Man a serious operation here. I'm still shaking my head at how clean it and organized it is here. So so cool
I can't get over how clean and organized everything is. They must have a huge janitorial staff. This farm operation is gigantic and contrary to the anti-dairy propaganda I have seen, the animals there look very clean, healthy and happy. Thanks for the great tour.
That methane redistribution was purely mind blowing!!!! I’ve only ever heard about how bad cow farms are with producing methane. That’s such an amazing process definitely want to look into more. Amazing content as always, thank you Laura and Grant!
Thanks again today for the tour. And a special thanks to the Sunnyside farm family for taking the time to give you all the tour. What an awesome operation!
Such a cool tour! I wish the general public would understand and appreciate just how much of a technological marvel a modern dairy farm is; it's nothing short of miraculous.
@@Jesse_andrew - Go to ANY dairy farm and count the boys. You may find a bull or two, but the rest have been turned into veal, steaks and hamburgers! The don't give milk and they don't have babies so...
@@Jesse_andrew - Of course I do and already stated as much. Tell me you keep them all hanging around, incurring the cost to feed and shelter simply because you like how they look and I'll show you a hobby farm..
That is an amazing operation! And it was obvious that Grant could not stop smiling when he was checking out the machinery. Fantastic tour! Thank you very much.
WOW WOW WOW 🤩 The Dairy Farm is CAA-RAA-ZZY AWESOME!!!! I haven’t seen that twinkle ⭐️ in Grant’s eyes since your wedding day. 😆 He looked so happy around that enormous equipment. This was a super cool video! I loved seeing every second of it. Thank you for sharing all this info. Love ❤️ you guys, Grammy
one of the best lessons from a multi-discipline agriculture operation - no matter WHAT the disciplines are - is learning where things come from... (I have relatives who, for many years, had no idea how milk & bread got to the grocery store in their neighborhood shopping center)
The coolest vid you two have ever put together! Very funny: " look... a rock in the wild"... Lol! Living in Florida, we also have no rocks! Lol! Thanks for the mmmaaasssiiivvveee farm tour n Grant's " tool shed " tour.... too funny maybe 3! You both have BIG operations at home, in NY, monster sized! Have more fun,stay safe..n keep on sharing as you can! Thanks!
I'm really glad you showed this operation to us. Most Americans don't know that agriculture is the basis of America's success. This country would dry up and blow away without our farmers. So few doing so much for all the rest of us. Personally I think I would go bonkers level crazy without cheese!
We've come along way. When I was in high school we use to walk beside flat bed trailers and toss what seemed like an endless row of bale's up by hand to two guys stacking massive piles up. I'm happy for the people who will never experience that.
You are somewhat correct. Baling hay is harvesting. The way you're smiling so big, you remind me of a kid on a field trip. Keep up that enthusiasm and excitement for your interest.
Thanks for your chanel. I'm almost blind now from a freak stroke. I got very sick with the flu. So this is pretty much the only way I can see things. Pause, rewind and watch again to try and grasp what you're doing. It's very helpful that you explain what your doing to help me understand what I'm looking at .
I was a farm boy in New York! Those were such great days in my youth. I didn't notice where you were in New York but I was in a place called Afton. We were surrounded by dairy farms. We had a cattle farm and sheep. Some of the very best days of my life.
Wow! I've never seen a "cowasel" before? Neat idea! Looked like the cows enjoyed the cool ride, the food and getting that milk out? Only thing missing was playing soft music for them to enjoy! LOL! Really efficient and the place was super clean too much like NY Farmgirl's place was. Thanks so much for showing us those huge working dairy farms! AWESOME! Mega farming costing mega bucks! We have similar technology at my work with digesters that make methane gas from waste to run our equipment. Grant had a kid on Christmas morning smile looking at all of that awesome machinery! I would have done the same if I were there and I did watching the video. Just think Laura, you have potential video material from different types of farming all across the land. Wheat/grain, cotton, hemp, tobacco, animals, fish, trees, etc. and more. I'm sure that such farmers everywhere would be glad to show you how they do it just like NY Farmgirls and their friends? Endless possibilities for more videos and visits to other states!
I'm a retired diary farmer from New Zealand and that farm blew me away. There are guys here that milk 7 oe 8000 cows here but not on one farm like this. Ausom.
Those methane digesters are soooo good for the environment. Like methane is brutally bad for the atmosphere and this eliminates so much of that problem. Pretty awesome stuff!! I wish more people saw this!
Like kids in ah candy store. Never seen Grant, & Laura, smile so much. I couldn't stop smiling, watching you guys. Did I learn a lot ? Give me ah test, I'll ace it. Love the cow,🐄🐄 merry-go-round 🐄🐄, and pumping station, and those two huge generators, and can sell power back, awesome ! Heard methane was ending the world, they seem to have ah pretty good handle on it. Laura, this "is" one of your best videos ever. Thanks for letting us tag along on the tour, see ya'll back home on the farm. ❣💓❣
I love what your whole family does,it gives me a lot of insight on how farming works and the modern technology that comes with it..I look forward for more of your videos here in Texas..
Thanks for sharing this great trip to the New York Farm show and the visit to the farms. It was an incredible learning for a 67 year old fart from Edmonton Alberta Canada. You guys are great together and show such amazing interest and passion for the Ag industry. Keep up the shows I am alway so very impressed to see the amazing insight to the internal workings of the Ag Industry. There is a lot more to it than grumpy old farmers who always complain. Love it love it love it
Fantastic video of a real eye opening look at a professional dairy farm ! Thank you Laura and Grant and all the folks at Sunnyside Farms! Really enjoyed it. Keep up your great work!
Man I sure seen some cool stuff today ! such a clean place ! Just couldn't imagine how much all that stuff cost. Another great video. I seem to learn something new every time I see you guys :)
Laura,Grant, great video and educational showing the differences of the types and areas of the country. They are doing a good service with the manure digester and suppling there electrical needs and the needs of others. This shows the ingenuity to achieve the success of this dairy farm. This trip will surely give you some great memories and experiences.
That was an incredible tour! That may be your single most informative video ever! A lot of information was packed in there. Meanwhile, down here in the Mississippi Delta, the field corn harvest has begun...
holy cow!!! that's an awesome operation! Great video, many thanks to You for taking your time to go visit and filming your experience! Cheers from Switzerland
Wow, this was all very cool Laura. Would be neat to hear more about the methane digester system and the generators. I could tell Grant was really enjoying himself.
That was one of the coolest farm videos I’ve ever seen! I watch a lot of farm videos from several different youtubers - Cole, Petersons, Millennial, Dodge brothers, etc. Laura and Grant’s enthusiasm is infectious!! Also to “return” approximately 10megawatts to the grid is A LOT of power. 😊
Ok, I'm a "manly man" but couldn't agree more. These two are certainly attractive in so many ways and has little to do with looks. Their personalities are addictive.
Thank you Grant for showing close up of The methane power generators, blow's my mind the number of hrs on them engine's.I wonder how often the oil changed on them? That's gotta be a lot of oil for 24 7 run time.
They are very clean burning engines and the reason why they last so long is the engines are diesels converted too menthane so they are built very heavy too begin with. Menthane isn't as hard on the internal components as diesel fuel is.
The oil is most likely on an analysis program where they take a sample from a port while it runs and send it off to a lab to determine if the oil needs changing. Kind of like AMSOIL does.
Rock pickers, we used to hire college kids and go out in our fields and pick up just the 2 hand rocks that came to the surface as the ground froze and thawed, we'd spread out 8 people wide behind a dump truck and pick until it was full, now we use those giant rollers that you walked past to punch them back underground as we have all converted to rotary mowers for swathing hay and they need a flat surface (which the roller provides) to swathe across. We have so many rocks that when the big farmers go after the rocks on a plowed and disced field they windrow the rocks and come in with a "rock picker" that picks and then conveyers the rocks into a dump truck, you can actually see the surface of the ground lower 1/2 an inch as all those rocks are taken off the field. Those tracked trackers have less compaction (you can't see where they drove in the crop) and way smoother ride across the field.
Dairy farming have come a long way since I was on a dairy farm as a kid. I say WOW!!! Amazing and check out those robots. it is so cool. Thnx guys for the tour. :)
For years I hauled feed to small and huge farms like this for Kalmbach Feeds Inc. The first time I saw one of these massive carousel milking operations I was in awe. The yummy feed that we delivered made them happy cows while they rode the wheel.😁 We also delivered to totally automated milk barns that had "Robot" milkers that read the cow's tags to let them in if they haven't been milked...a really cool process and technology. When I was a kid I thought milking 80 head twice a day was something...things sure change.
This farm is just 4 miles from my Mom and Dads home. Grow up in this community, Cayuga County. this family is a fantastic family. When I was young, I walked all the hills of this farm. Thanks for visiting my home town.
As an old flight instructor. I cant fly anymore do to diabetes but I have wonderful memories. I can see you have "the fly bug" so don't delay. The farm needs a pilot and plane !! Think of a plane as just another tractor that goes faster. Think of all the farm activities you could go to. Good luck, with your attitude and intelligence you can do it. Then you too can have those great memories.
Fantastic visit thanks !!! i miss living next to the farm when i was growing up, always had so much fun. i had pigs to my right and horses to my left lol fun times.
Laura is the next Mike Rowe. Thank you for showing us the America that too many of us take for GRANTed!
Great to see they are using the methane to power the farm plus 7k homes!
How amazing is that? I had no idea farms were even doing that.
Wow!! What a set up!! Very impressive.

Since they have the methane generators, why do they need the diesel generator in the milking operation?
That is an insane operation. Best line ever... "Look.. a rock in the wild !!". That is just so hilarious.
I live in Georgia, we have what is, the largest exposed granite monolith, in the united states, "Stone Mountain"
It's outreach covers, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina, and some parts of Florida,
that's ah lot of rock. With Georgia Red Clay, and rock everywhere, digging anything is ah bugger !
I'm blown away with how clean this place is. This family goes beyond to get this product out for us. I've never seen anything like this. Just very impressed
Mega farms are prohibited in the European union... they still are studying for zoonosis
They have to be clean or they can't sell their milk into the coop/market...
its a dairy it has to be as clean as or noone would buy the milk would you drink milk that was in a dirty dairy where shit goes into your milk?
Dairy farmers get inspected and have to be clean.
That must be it!!!!
Thank you Laura and Grant for showing that New York is not just New York city!
amen!
Love how you're eyes light up when you are learning new things.

Makes my old 10 stall herringbone look stone age :D
No!....we prefer to believe in the milk fairy!😠
That operation is just mind boggling. All the cattle look very very happy.
Except for the boy cows...

This was a super cool video! I loved seeing every second of it. Thank you for sharing all this info. Love ❤️ you guys, Grammy
You and Grant were so funny when you found a rock in the field. There are plenty of rocks in every field here in S.W. Virginia. God bless.
I'm in S.W. Virginia. We've been gardening the some plot for 30 years and still find rocks every time we plow.
one of the best lessons from a multi-discipline agriculture operation - no matter WHAT the disciplines are - is learning where things come from... (I have relatives who, for many years, had no idea how milk & bread got to the grocery store in their neighborhood shopping center)
The stork...when he wasn't delivering babies....had side jobs of course.
Happy Birthday Grant
That dairy farm is absolutely beautiful. Not to mention all of that beautiful machinery. Fantastic video. Loved it
The coolest vid you two have ever put together! Very funny: " look... a rock in the wild"... Lol! Living in Florida, we also have no rocks! Lol!

Thanks for sharing your tour with me. The methane powered generators were interesting.
This is so cool ! We think farmers provide food but who would have ever thought about farmers providing power !! How cool is that ??!!
You are somewhat correct. Baling hay is harvesting. The way you're smiling so big, you remind me of a kid on a field trip. Keep up that enthusiasm and excitement for your interest.

Absolutely amazing !! Technology bring n cold quality milk to your kitchen table !! Great Video !!
Super fun tour of the farm, thanks for sharing . Laura and Grant make the perfect couple , you both love cool stuff so much ! :)
Thanks for visiting that farm very interesting
That was one of the coolest farm videos I’ve ever seen! I watch a lot of farm videos from several different youtubers - Cole, Petersons, Millennial, Dodge brothers, etc.
Laura and Grant’s enthusiasm is infectious!!
Also to “return” approximately 10megawatts to the grid is A LOT of power. 😊
Agree with the enthusiasm. Her eyes are what drew me in and the enthusiasm is what made me a subscriber. :)
HOLY COW (pun intended) What a HUGH farm. I'm glad you and Grant are having so much fun.
Watching Grant geek out over the machinery was kinda awesome.
So glad to see this. Yes so very awesome! I bet you two had a wonderful time as I would have, Thank you.
Gives such an appreciation of dairy farms
Let's be real, I clicked on a video way back when because of the green eyes lol but now I look forward to seeing grant lol
Thanks for the heart grant! 😊

More videos like this please? Amazing! Thank you Laura and Grant.
Wow! The scale of that place, automation, and equipment was incredible. Thanks for sharing it with us!
To build that set-up from scratch for everything would be about $90 million dollars. Starting with a flat piece of ground.
Not too bad for around 2 million in milk and 3.6 million in electric sales a year based on what they said in the video!
One of your better videos ! What a wonderful operation ! Learned a lot that I didn't know ! 😊
Thank you Sunnyside Farms 💖💖💖 #SUPPORTFARMERS #SUPPORTTHEFARMERS #FARMERS
Dairy farming have come a long way since I was on a dairy farm as a kid. I say WOW!!! Amazing and check out those robots. it is so cool. Thnx guys for the tour. :)
Farmer from Iowa. Things have come along way from a 5 gallon bucket. Amazing vid.
So much technology. You are both so good in explaining everything. Great. Take care
No wonder Grant had a happy birthday! It's like dropping into the middle of a Farm Simulator game with all the big equipment! Quite an operation!!
i’ve been there!! my cousins run this farm and it’s so cool seeing you guys enjoy visiting as much as i do!

Then you too can have those great memories.
