There's something mesmerizing about watching Jim work these horses.
Ok. I have a problem!
I'm addicted to these videos! 😊
Great😀
That plow looks amazing on camera.
So brenda your little picket fence got a licking of paint too, it looks very country looking how nice👍🙌😊
Thank you for taking me along. The message of hope and starting over in the spring, leaving behind what was and expecting this year to be better. Grateful for the setbacks of life, they really do make us stronger with more growth like out gardens - with more wisdom, knowledge, and joy. Jim, Brenda, and the horses all contribute to a special broadcast that puts life into perspective. God Bless
I'm an old guy 67 so I appreciate what your doing , I'm assuming you just enjoy working with horses this is my first visit to your channel.
Donnie Chapman Yes, that is correct it’s my preference because I just enjoy the horses
Today is the first time I have watched your videos. I am so thankful it showed up. I wish I were there helping. Thank you for sharing.
plf1of6 We are glad you enjoyed them.
Something calming about being w yall. Tight turns W shoes is tricky for them. Ah. Love your wh picket fence w bird house on a wh pole. Bruck is doing a super job in thr furrow. Calms right down.😅 i know de feeling. Have a good rest of your day. ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Amazing what can be done ! My Father used horses back in the 30's & 40's in farming in Pueblo county congratulations , it is very hard work ! So very proud of you doing this ! Thank you ! Stay safe , Bob
My father used to talk about plowing with a Model 18 Oliver plow and one horse in the late 20 s and 30s - you have beautiful horses and they are well trained. Enjoyed the video.
Nice soil, Good job feathering out the furl in the last pass, not so ubrupt, sure safes on a misplaced step..
Looks Great. I can smell the soil and taste the fresh beans.
Thanks 👍
Keep the wife happy is always a good idea.
Absolutely!
I would call this a single furrow mouldboard reversible plough, but maybe that's a real mouthful ! The horses seem to pull so effortlessly.
you got some good horses,Jim
My grandfather used to call that a hee and haw plow, which was PA Dutch for gee and haw, or right and left. Here in Kentucky, it is called a hillside turning plow. I had the pleasure of plowing with one of those White Horse plows years ago, with my Mennonite friend's horses. He was the one with the two farm chunk mares and the two ton horse geldings. That was a thrill.
Looks so good thanks Jim and brenda
Rocks are a never ending battle. I do like that plow.
For sure! Yes, it's a nice plow
Looks good Jim
That garden is about the size of the one that I plowed with a single Shorthorn steer and a single share plow. When he was 3 yr. old he could plow the whole garden at one time. In the spring he worked twitching out logs to the wood yard and hauling manure for the garden. That would get him is shape for the plowing that is very hard work.
I do enjoy y'all's videos they remind me of my granddaddy working his team of mules, so thank you so very much. That breaking plow is neat with its spring loaded rock jumper setup. I really wouldve enjoyed having one for my G series Allis Chamber one row tractor, that sir is impressive.
Thanks for watching, glad it can bring back good memories for you
Hello sir, I m from india love watching ur videos,my grandfather used to have oxen pulled ploughs for farming,out in india we don't use horses but it's really enjoyable to watch ur videos.. keep them coming.. stay safe during these tough times
Thanks for sharing, that's so interesting! Stay safe as well!
I love to train and work with my dogs, always have liked to watch and hopefully God willing have my own draft animals one day. Nice looking garden soil and good videos. Keep it up!
I like the way you are doing it
Very beauty full
Good working horses
I really enjoy your videos. I have one Percheron that I work. I would love to farm like you. Keep the videos coming . Thank you
Eric Curzi thank you! Keep doing what you love!
Hi Jim, great job plowing with 3 horses. Farm on, Andreas
Thanks 👍
Job Well Done
what a pleasure to watch. thank you for sharing this with us
I am IMPRESSED !
1. Nothing like a morning on the seed drill to take any sass out of them.
2. It is a genuine pleasure watching your guys working in so tight without any fuss.
3. Watching the big boy just casually drop into the furrow at just the right time every time
is neat.
4. Of you guys could get $5 a bushel for rocks you’d be rich in a year.
5. How do the dogs feel about having their kennels on top of the silos?
Mick & Julies awesome channel. They hate climbing the ladder every night😀
Dressage horses for ploughing very sure footed, great to watch a team working ,
Thanks for watching!
keep BETTER records-i have heard that before-you folks are still my favorite to watch- your doing good
Yes! So true better records always help!Thanks for watching!
Nice spring garden plowing. Great to "hear" the the Boss being out to approve your job.. Lol. Should get her on the reins some day too. Lol
Maybe she will...thanks for your interest in our channel!
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim
Your welcome..
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim I started riding our cow horses at age 8..I could trail ride over heard cattle. The lone team we had was used to clear irrigation ditches ,pulling a mowing machine, a rake and the hay wagon. They were a mare and her son: Dolly and Bob. I learned to drive them. At age eleven I would perform all of the duties of teamster. The team was mostly Percheron. I had to have help from my father to get the harness on them. Heavy wagon tongues were a problem for me as well
I loved those big draft horses more than our saddle horses. Long ago and far away
.
96 degrees here in sw Oklahoma down on the red river valley. In the big empty. Love this channel.
Gary Grose wow! Spring is just coming here, we were happy to have it in the 50’s today!
Yes, every year the garden decides what will grow, I just tend to it
I was raised around percherons and Belgians by my grandfather he used them for logging firewood and horsepull competitions
We really like the two-way plow, Jim. Great team of horses and excellent video!
Summerbend Farm thanks, I like your videos also. Love those shots with the drone. Any of you guys liking my videos should check out Summerbend Farm’s channel.
Thank you so much for the recommendation! I hope people will enjoy the videos. We don’t really watch tv but have for a while been watching different farm RUclips channels, like yours. I think they’re better than watching actual television. Unfortunately there aren’t many channels that regularly upload videos focused on draft horses, which is why we love seeing your videos. Please keep them coming! Chad
Hi Folks
Keep the good stuff coming thanks
Your area looks like around potter ny I go to Farmington nh NY son a blacksmith which is shut down now love too see the team my dad did everything with horses
Very nice.And such a fancy fence! Great to see that you grow your on vegetables;it's a shame to see farms that besides their row crops only have lawn. It is obvious that you are much further north than where I am , we already have 18 different kinds of vegetables growing, which we grow for our restaurant and private customers. We are already harvesting spinach, radishes, kale and arugula. I plow with a trailer plow behind the forecart which is easier for me to climb on than the riding plow. I did prefer walking behind the plow, though, can't do it anymore.
Klaus Karbaumer Yes, it sounds like your growing season is way ahead of ours- we are in zone 4 here. Good for you to have so many crops in and growing. Keep up the good work!
Rocks are pain but stuf loves groving in realy rocky soil we use tractors and are land is one big rock breading ground but it is hard one equipment and rock picking never stops the more rocks you pick the lower the land gets you just never will get rid of rocks
So true!
Kathy Ark Mi Raspberries at my house get pruned right down to 4" every fall and every new year they would grown up near 6' . I learned to trellis them with fence post and wire and would weave in and out of the wire as they grew tall and it helped them alot.
Sounds like a good way of taking care of them, thanks for sharing!
Hey. I like to watch your video. There is no such equipment for horses in Ukraine. And if there is something very old. I wish you good health and success in your work.
While watching several of your ploughing videos I've regularly wondered why Jim uses the reverse and sidestep manoeuvre when there's ample headroom to use a wide loop turn instead.
It's faster and teaches them to side step and move as I want them to
I watch your videos all the the Im from up state New York also Ontario County NY area
Thanks for watching! When you grow up with them, love for the horses can really stick with you!
Süper bir pulluk tamam oldu şimdi yalnız başlarda dönerken çok zaman harcanıyor acaba tarlayı çember şeklinde sürebilirsek nasıl olur hadi kolay gelsin
Great video! Nice job plowing, beautiful team and a well seasoned teamster. Jim must like the Kniverland bottoms on this two way plow, what type of plow and bottom was on the previous one way plow?
AKWayne S , thanks, it’s a keystone bottom and I do like it. My old plow has a JohnDeere bottom on it, maybe sometime l can video that.
Good looking soil, although a little stoney. Will you put a fence round your planting area?
No we won't put a fence around it. And yes, it is stoney, we have picked rocks
for years from there, and the plowing brought up a new crop!
Good day Boy it sounds stoney. Are those hydrien mold boards, high & long. Nice video. Thanks
Don Voll they are keystone mold boards
Nice plough. Is it mix of a john deere and kvernlands.tutrning over nicely.stones should be picked during harrowing.stay safe
Yes, thanks. You too
Have you given any thought to a GPS system for the horses?
Oil the moldboard, don't paint. Keep the plow in a under a dry roof. Horses are working harder because of paint and the friction created with two surfaces rubbing together. The light oil film with come off in first few feet of plowing leave a bare shiny slippery moldboard and shear.
Thanks for the suggestions and for watching!
Thoroughly enjoying you working with your horses, from over here in Ireland. A question I have is when can you tell your horses are too tired to work? or how do you assess how much work you want them to do? Thanks.
I’ll try to talk about it on one of my videos. I have one coming up soon that will discuss it.
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Great, can't wait.
Is this a new plow or just repainted?? seems like the soil is very rocky based on the sounds it makes on the plow share.
Yes it’s a new white horse plow. Yes we have a lot of rocks in places, as you could hear.
What horse is your best for farming? What horse is your best for logging? What horse is your overall best horse?
They all work pretty good for everything, except for Bill, he doesn't do great with farming sometimes
If you were worried about the horses stepping on the other why not walk them in a circle on the head land so they didn’t have to side step
They are pretty used to side stepping so I don't worry about it too much, and there isn't much room on the further end.
Splendid video Jim
I want to start harvesting how should I start ? Step a
Nice,but back days were was walking behind the plower.
Jim how long does it take to clean and oil all the tack?
Most of the harness is Bio and it’s very easy to wash with soap and water
What determines which horse gets positioned where?
I like to have them be able to work in every position, so I switch them around some.
Jim, you seem to have plenty of room around your garden patch. Wouldn't it just be easier to turn the horses in a bigger circle at the end of each furrow, or plow it as two sets of interlocking "rings", for want of a better description? Just asking?
The way I plowed the garden, I had plenty of room to turn. But I had used both plows going back and forth, it would've been harder. If you're interested, the video Early Spring Plowing explains how I turn around. Thanks for your interest.
Jim, is it better for the horses to be walking on soft soul rather than hard pack? I thought someone who owned horses told me what is better
Kenny Dean soft soil or hard soil is good, walking on a lot of concrete is not so good
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Thank you, I am naturally curious about a lot of things, also mechanically minded, I also like horses, how many do you have? The ones I've seen so far on your videos are very beautiful horses, I've watched the Teamsters harnessing the Clydesdales at our State Fair, the Big E it does take a lit if knowledge and patient's to get them all harnessed up for the work they perform.
Do you farm with horses
Can you turn both directions?
Yes, my spring plowing video shows me going both ways
Do you need three horses with a one furrow plow
I don't need 3 for the garden, but to go in the big field all day, yes, using 3 is better
Amazing. Hey I was just checking the price por this white horse plow in their website, but I couldn’t find any. What’s the price, approximately?
Somewhere between $4000 to $5000
Working Horses With Jim thanks
When I was rambunctious dad would tell me if you don't want to go work in the garden you better behave,I'd be good for awhile,than one day he quit threatening,made me pull weeds and pick rocks ,I cried till he gave me reason to cry ,I was pretty well behaved for awhile,still don't like gardening,
Too bad you don’t like gardening! Watching things grow is a wonderful thing!
Enjoy these videos..but why do you use horses instead of tractors?
Karyl Harris that’s a good question, I’ll try to do a video on that sometime.
Name for plow please!
👍👌🇨🇦❤
So it will keep a slick face
Яка ціна такого плуга.
What a nice plow they are faster then my tractor and can make one good turn im going to say your team is waster then my tractor
