- Sometimes you gotta just farm it. Because sometimes I forget I can do things on my own, until I try. And do. And this week I did. It wasn't a big thing, but sometimes little things actually are big things. Grinding corn, filling buckets, feeding cows, and feeding people homemade blueberry dump cake (because y'all asked me how, and I'm finally showing you. 🙂) Recipe below...

I can see the humor that lies beneath Lawrence's stoic exterior, the slight twinkle in his eye. Your channel takes me back to the happiest time of my life, childhood on my grandfather's farm. The smell of the corn crib and feed barrels, the crackling fire in the fireplace of a drafty old farmhouse. Hiding under my grandma's home sewn quilts listen ing to her make breakfast and dreading leaving my warm burrow when she would call me down. All that war 50 years ago and that was the last time I felt connected to family. Thank you Merrdith.
beautifull herd of cattle and you can tell they are well looked after GOD bless the farmer
OMG dump cake !! worked with a farmer , learned how they do what they do, was a city boy (NYC) always wanted out, i got out and love, way upstate now, been buying acreage and planning on retiring and living out the rest of my days with the farming community, you are a hard working nurturing doll of a woman (beautiful eyes and smile) it is nice knowing you ! looking forward to watching more !!
Meredith you have such a happy attitude. In my last comment on your post I said that your husband was a lucky man to have you. I forgot to say the you are lucky to have Farmer as well. God bless you and your family. I so like watching your videos.
That's true. Thank you!
Wow the farmer is one lucky guy to have a young beautiful lady that works so hard every day and shows what real love is.
What’s wrong with us older farm wives who love our farms and our men. Young is good, but we are blessed to age and live well.
@@rachelfrees1268Your right ma'am Nothing wrong with the older ladies its all good.
About the only thing I have in common with farming are the summers and weekends I spent on my uncle's farm in Wisconsin back in the 50s and 60s. As a scrawny kid it was hard work, but I loved it. My uncle's farm was a small dairy farm. We hand milked about 30 cows. Then we fed the hogs, chickens, horses, and other assorted domestic critters before firing up the 50s era John Deere tractor and heading out to the fields. This Deere required hand cranking to start. I loved doing that, as long as I got my arm out of the way from potential kickback. Crops were hay, corn, and tobacco. It was hot, sweaty, dusty hard work. My uncle was always tinkering and fixing things. For fun we would swim in the creek that ran through the pastures. Sometimes the cows would join us. Other times we would go squirrel hunting in the hills back of the farm, or ride horses to higher fields and back. We would bring back a bag full of squirrels for my aunt to cook. That was our meal for a few days. Wood cook stove, no indoor plumbing, but lots of love in that house. I'm an old man now sitting in my rocking chair and letting your videos and witty narrative bring back those memories... memories of real farming, Thank you for that. You are a beautiful young woman with a beautiful family, and I wish you many years of good luck and fortune.
This message means the world to me. Those are awesome memories. Thanks for being here 💛
Mrs. Meredith any day you on a Farmall is Totally awesome. Thank you Mr. And Mrs. Bernard for allowing Me to live through video the Life I will never get to be in. George
Deltaville Va
I love the old Farmall! Thanks George :)
Meredith, I've done the dump cake in a Dutch Oven while camping with the family, it always comes out great, regardless of the method you use to "dump" the ingredients. Love your cooking tips.
We grind ear corn as well. We put ear corn in gravity flow wagons, and it makes it easy for 1 person operation.
Good deal!
Thanks for the recipes.
Love your daughter peaking around to see and wanting to help. Reminds me of me in dad's shop when I was her size. I learned so much without ever being "taught". Your children are very blessed to have the life you're giving them.
Ground ear corn makes excellent cattle feed
I'm a firefighter and dump cake sounds like a great idea to try on them. It's always a great place to experiment. haha. My kids will love it too I'm sure. Thank you!
I like your operation because it functions with the older equipment. I watch farms with newer expensive shiny machines and they break down too. You guys do it Right!! Cant wait to see that Gleaner in the field.😏
We use what we got and what we can work on. :D Thanks! I can't wait to see it go, either!! :D
Loved it when you went out on your own and ground corn! Only a great Farm Wife would have even tried it! :)
Had it and like it. Only like two kinds of pie. Hot and cold! Haha
I love the cobs last ride! 😂 It’s time for sad singing and slow walking!
Hahaha...it just struck me.
😂😂😂 Well better late than never....... just kidding! 😃
Here in Maine we harvest millions of pounds of Maine wild blueberries. I used to can in the factories the type of blueberries you used.
SO LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS. I MAKE THOSE CAKES TO . SO EASY. LOVE YOUR HARD WORKING FAMILY. BONNIE IS THE FARM SUPERVISOR.....SHE DOES A GREAT JOB. SWAMP HUGS FROM LOUISIANA.
Lol the music for the cobs last ride. Priceless.
Vanilla ice cream is always perfect over a hot dump -- cake that is!
Mmmmm that “DUMP CAKE “ looks delicious . I will have to give that a try
My wife makes those dump cakes and they are great! Yeah, Johnny Cash was one of my favorites and I miss him too! I think the last time I saw him was when he and Weylon, Willie and Kris did that Highwaymen show. I had it recorded and I don't know how many times I watched it! It got deleted by accident but I will catch it again. You have a great day Meredith and here we go!
That would be a show to watch again! :D Thanks for being here!
He sure has got a lot of help. With family
Thank u for helping him..... he’s Lucky 🍀 Man👍💕
I stumbled across your channel and growing up as a kid working on many farms your vlogs bring back so many memories....thank you for these and Taking me back to those awesome times…I know your likely tired of hearing this ..but you are the sweetest cutest farmers wife ever. Never on any of the many farms I’ve worked on did their wives look and do what you do LOL absolutely 100% complement… Thanks again from Ontario Canada
Aw, well thanks and I'm glad you are liking my vlog and it can bring back good memories! That makes me happy! :D Thanks for being here
Nothing a country girl can't do. You shonuff know how to Git-R-Done. That dump cake looked mighty tasty! Hope you folks have a great weekend!
Thank you! Hope y'all are well!
Made the dump cake the other day. With vanilla ice cream. Was a hit. My mom and sister were impressed. Told her it was an old secret receipe. Lol! Whoop, Whoop. 😛
Yay!! :D
Having lived in a farm, and still owning a small one, I understand how much hard work it can be, but y’all make farm life look so easy and so much fun.
Thanks! Not always easy and not always fun, but worth the hard for the reward. I appreciate you being here. ☺️
Ha ha. The symphony music for the cob's last ride 😂😂😂😂😂
I’m from the north but a very very very special southern lady corrected me on the way I would say pecan, for some reason northerners say pecuhn! I miss her dearly!
Dump Cakes are the best, every one is a lil different. I had then since I was little. Home-made vanilla ice cream on top, making me hungry all ready.
Soooo good!
r
You have did it again. My farmher and I watched this then went to work feeding the heifers, bulls and checking the cows among other things. As you know there's always work to do on the farm. Now she is on here way to the store to get stuff to make a dump cake. WOOHOO. Steak, taters and dump cake what a great evening we're going to have.
Oh my gosh, this is so good! You're going to love it! Been a long day here, too...and I wish I had more of that to eat. :P Enjoy! Thanks for watching :)
As far as the swing goes it just goes to show we all still have a little kid left in us. Bonnie the dog on the matter of chasing squrrels " are you for real!" Yessir that ear of corn gave it's all. Unless yall need a portable mixer why don't you install a permanant hammer mill? My neighbor who runs a lot of cows did and he said it was money well spent. Uses an electric motor and he feeds with a feed wagon with an auger. They run a lot of cows and grind tons of feed. Just an idea. That dump cake looked good.
Meredith, thanks for reminding all of us of the daily requirements of keeping the cattle feed. You show us the fun days and the hard work days. Hang in there, we appreciate you. - Dean from Minnesota
Thanks Dean! Having fun doing the things :)
Love seeing old Farmall tractors working on the farm and that dessert looks good. Being from Georgia I would have to go with peaches. My momma makes a great peach crumble.. Just subscribed and enjoying your videos.
I cooked 4 different ones in Dutch ovens last month for about 45 peaple. It was for a fathers and sons outing with my church.
That cake looked good before it went in the oven. I bet it tasted heavenly when it came out of the oven.
It was good!
Howdy
Just watched your video and loved it. Your dump cake really did look easy My mom, rest her soul, used to make a dump cake. Cute on the ride of the last com. I too love Johnny Cash.
Thanks Jerry!! :D
Last cob ride. Good one
Enjoyed your slice of farm life. You are a wonderful mother and a fun one as well. I can tell your daughter enjoys being around you. Just learning to cook. Am going to try your "dump cake". Jim TN
Are you sure that 🌽 doesn't have just one more ride LoL 😜 Thanks for showing how to make your dump cake Meridith that looks so good!!
I think it's done! hahahahaah
Great video. I was waiting for that rope to break.😐 Gotta love a dump cake. Have a great weekend and thanks for the laughs!😁
It better not break! haha.
Lawrence has to be proud, I'm sure it gives him some comfort in knowing that you are doing things yourself
I think it does :)
if young people would watch your blog they would learn more real life (real GOOD LIFE)
stuff they can't learn in a real expensive college,
i like how you show the good of living life with a family & working to gather
Thanks so much!
Going to try a dump cake today! Yours looked delicious, peaches instead of blueberry ! Thanks for sharing !
Big Jim from bonny Scotland ..oh lassy u sure can cook ..dump cake haven't tasted it in years ..I luv watching u cooking..keep spreading the butter and luv ..cheers y'all 😉
Thank ya! Make you a dump cake!
I have to tell ya...one of the things I like most about your and "the Farmer's" operation, is that it's so relatable....lIke "Miss Gehl acting up". Reminds me so much of the things I contended with as both a boy growing up; and later, as a young(er) man helping out. A neighbor once observed that with farm equipment, "breaking down is just part of it." Truer words were never spoken. Equipment doesn't have to be clean and flawless....it just needs to get the job done. Most of the time, anyway... ;)
Yes, I agree! Hubs always says he likes having equipment he can work on, too. The newer stuff isn't as friendly that way.
the dump cake looks awesome!!! made me hungry just watchin you make it!!!
I love cooking Dump Cakes outside in a cast iron camp oven! I need to do it again now!!!
now that is my kind of cake...drivin' in to get the supplies, may just pick up a case of each, of all the ingredients... Thanks
Ha, good!
How very cool your barn is made with tree logs! Way to get in there and try new things, all on your own :D (sometimes it's easier without someone watching over your shoulder, haha!)
It’s always easier for me that way!😅🙌🏼 And Yeah, he built this and it really is pretty cool 😃
This is so easy and so so so good thanks again for making my night Meridith I'm going to go enjoy my food coma 😁 😋
HHa enjoy!
So So So love dump cake my momma use to make it all the time so so good 😊
we love making dump cake, I been making them since I was a kid, I have cooked them on an open fire while I took my scout troop on a weekend outing every kid loved it & so did the parents they ALL wanted the recipe also .i lol. because it is so easy to do was so good I had to make 4 of them & I only had two dutch ovens
Haha yes! People always ask how to make it and it’s the one recipe I have in my head. So good! I bet awesome over camp fire ☺️☺️
Hello Meredith hope u are fine, great video again. U called the grain mixer ,, Ms Gehl" I think that's not right because it has a auger, that's ,,Mrs Gehl" LOL :-D
Looking sooooo cute on ur swing.
Have a nice day sweet mom.;-)♥♥
THank you!
Good job on filling the buckets, my kids make fun of me when i say "initiative!!" but you showed great initiative trying to get ahead. hey when Farmer thought it was funny to pretend to run at you with the little loader you should have pretended to push him into the grinder, lol. Beautiful sunset i agree.
Good on you for having a go keep going you will get there and I like your video,s really like your accent
You and the farmer or a great team
WOw that looked so easy!! You reminded me of a Julia Child show that she did with Jac P. where she is using butter to keep bread or cake slices on the sides of the pot and was saying the same thing about butter! :)
Ok, my wife left a year ago and I have been wanting to learn to cook a dessert so I am gonna try this. Thank you ma’am for sharing and making it look so simple. God bless.
You can do it!
You’re look like a hard working farmer truck you a good woman
The corn's last ride was really funny Meredith. :)
Haha, thanks ;)
My uncle grew up with johnny and June cash. Been in the house so many times growing up and my cousin Henry dated Johnnys daughter.
That is so AWESOME!!!
Gotta say you look good doing farm work.
I’m going to

☺🙌Labas,Taip tiesa tokia jeigu zmogus gerai jauciasi gaudamas gera komentara.Zinau kad esate seima givenate ransoje ukininkaujete.Isleisti video zinai kad busi demesio centre.Kai kurie suprantame norime bendravimo.Taip matau puikiai gamini patiekalus.❤👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹Aciu.
At our county fair, a generator powers all the rides and shows along the midway. However, the classic restored ferris wheel .. located a ways off in the distance .. is still run by a red stationary Farmall engine that sits just off to the side.
Each year, I attend the fair and .. yes, take "at least" one ride on that old ferris wheel .. as my ride comes to a close .. I hear this exact sound 7:31 as I leave my seat .. and head back down the midway.
Guess I'll always be .. kind'of'a kid at heart ... Cheers.
Nothing wrong with being a kid at heart...that's what keeps us young! Love it :)
bob o - I'm 61 and still got people asking if I'll ever stop showing the enthusiasm of a boy experiencing the newness of life.
Beautiful hard worker and great cook every man's dream woman 👍
I like the attention to detail, at 5:04 - Barney the dog matches your boots. The romantic aspect to farm life is illustrated at 7:01where we witness that cobs last few moments before moving on to a beautiful sunset at 9:00. Your recipe is useful beings it can be applied to anything, ie, find it, dump it in the pan & cook/eat it...;-))
Yes! Thank you!
@@ThisFarmWife_ ;-))
Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing another fabulous show ☕️🍩🥓☕️cheers 👍🏼
Confidence young lady, confidence!
Meredith you just can't have enough tractors you just can't !
I agree!
I just love that older one. Can’t even remember what kind he has. Got to love it.
Just stumbled across your channel. Great job !! Good looking farm.
Thank you!
I've got a neighbor that has a 770- pushing snow one winter- he was complaining about having to dig it out when it got stuck- I showed him the diff lock pedal... City folks- I swear... Oh- and thanks for educating the masses on the proper pronunciation of pe-cans!
Haha...yes, it's the only way to say it! Even though my husband says it wrong hahahaha
@@ThisFarmWife_ Some HIgh falootin folks in virginia think they're better saying pekaahn... I just think they're just trying to be like the northerners...
Just started watching you recently this is the first time I seen you with your hair down, OMG!😍😍😍😍 and now I want dump cake lol
pacawns.lol.i was watching freight train videos when I saw you had a new videos and I instantly forgot about trains.
haha..that's funny. Thank you!
Great video but I'm going to comment on a different vlog . Recently you talked about leaving butter out and I leave mine out, anyway you suggested I try butter on crackers. Well now I have a tub of butter on my counter and literally use it like a dip with crackers. Thanks for the awesome tip. Hope you have a great weekend.
Haha, yay! I'm loving the butter out life!
You got it all!. Your husband is a lucky man!
Dump cake, never heard of that before. A cake with no eggs!!
Dont ever stop trying to do different or challenging things , you don't know what you can do until you try , I like seeing someone try rather than setting back and not doing anything .
Bonnie is a sweetie! OK I'll try the dump cake.
Don't you dare change the way you talk. Wife is going to make your cake this weekend with cherries and pineapple. Thanks for sharing( she loves the pair of towels she just got)
Yay! I’m glad she likes them. Thanks again for ordering. ☺️☺️
That dump cake looks good will have to make one and find out if it tastes as good as it looks, the vanilla ice cream on top should only make it more tasty ;-) Thanks for sharing !!
I hope Mrs Gehl is feeling better real soon! 😔
Great farm life..Tried that dump cake was a hit family loved it..
Yay! So glad!
My gram did this with pineapples and cherry pie fill its my go to quick pot luck dessert. She used 2 can each to one cake mix and no nuts is only differences
Bonnie is a beautiful blue healer.
Dump cake is the bestLOL! Next time, add a box of instant vanilla pudding or tapioca pudding ! Dang now I’m starving like a hostage! LOL!
Oh man I bet that is awesome! Noted 😃
WOO THAT LOOKS REAL GOOD , IAM BEV TO MAKE THAT THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR WORK
You are just the sweetest farmer.
Hi, New to your channel. Love seeing your experiences and daily life. All the best from a farmer in Ireland
Thanks for tuning in from Ireland! :D
@14:30 my biology teacher once asked us while teaching lab safety, "Can you tell the difference between hot glass and cold glass just by looking at it?" - I've never forgotten that lesson. 😉
How precious. So Awsome.
Great video, cake looks good.
Well I'm loving your cooking show going to try it.
Due to my wife's health I do most of the cooking. I'm gonna try that recipe though. I don't think even I can screw that up lol. And yes it needed the extra butter!! I told the wife while watching that I was surprised she didn't use extra butter and had to laugh when you did. Thanks you all take care.
Haha ,that's funny about the butter! I hope you'll try it!
MARK MORTENSEN. MAKE THAT CAKE. YOU CAN'T MESS IT UP. I MAKE THEM ALL THE TIME. SWAMP HUGS FROM LOUISIANA
Cathy Griffith -Thanks for the vote of confidence. I'm probably gonna try it Saturday but gotta get some more goodies from the store first. I appreciate the swamp hugs‼️❤️❤️
Bonnie says. Dog food ain't good till its out on the porch. Lol
Yes, that's exactly what she says hahaha
Awsome vid as usual, Merdi. You crack me up with your little cut ups in the vid. Bonnie is such a great dog. She's aways at your side. That's a dog who would give her life to save you. Btw, I think the Gehl is about to give up the ghost. Course every time I say that, a farmer will beat it to fit and paint to match and have a smooth running machine again.lol
Awesome video TY for sharing
liked the vid...you are improving in your vid making skills ….. thumbs up :)
Thank you! That means a lot. i'm trying, but feel like I have a long ways to go lol
Who needs an expensive JD Gator side-by-side when you have a Suzuki Samurai!
We agree!
