- Welcome to the farm! If you're new here, this is perfect timing: we're starting planting season today. If you've been here for a while, I'm so thankful for you! I am so grateful to have you riding in the buddy seat of my John Deere tractor with me today: Day "0" of planting season!! This has been a long time coming; we've been prepping since the day harvest ended. I hope you learn something about why your local farmers are so stressed this time of year. Don't worry, theres a lot more to come, so I'll see you bright and early tomorrow morning for the official first day!

Laura's and Grant's presentation of their farming life is not only educating, it gives a genuine picture into the courage it takes to choose a farmers life. I for one am very proud of you both. You are the "best" of what our great country is and can be. Our prayers are with you.
the fact Laura posts to RUclips while she's farming is what has me returning as thanks to her i have quiet a respect for farmers now
Your courage standards are super low.
Well Said!!
Keep in mind most farmers don't have the equipment they have either. So that makes things a lot harder
Ms Pepper is a priceless piece of equipment.
Cat or Dog Are Good Therapy Animals ❤
Laura …i’m 66 yo and watching you and Grant for years! I think you have reached a new level of understanding of your profession and your phd level of what is going on and your way to bring it to us is ever evolving and it shows in your JOY I feel watching!🙏🏽❤️😎🇺🇸
People don't understand how hard farming is and how important it is for a great crop yield and what it means to all life on earth.
May the Good Lord bless your plantings, the crops growth, the harvest and the continued posting of videos that help keep us grounded in who we are. 85-90 trips around the sun and we are done but the planting goes on.

I like how the wings of the corn planter come down. That is pretty cool. Now I understand tractors need auto stir, there is alot of data to look at. I like to now how many acres in one field, I bet over a 100 acres, or not more.
Here’s to a Successful Planting….and Growing…… and Harvest seasons!!!
The stress on your face was evident during the opening Laura, you and Grant have got this. Here's to a safe and bountiful season for Laura Farms!
Hey Laura and Grant, praying you guys have a safe and blessed planting season. 😊
Thank u Grant for not wearing your ball cap backwards. Much appreciated. Brad n kalifornia
Laura, even though we are not related in any way shape or form, I still want to tell you as a father of three daughters that I am proud of you. I wish I could wrap my arms running and give you a big hug that means a gentle hug.
May your Lord bless You, Grant, Pepper and family to have a great planting season and positive productive growing season into harvest.
As young farmers you are blessed having great farming mentors in your life. Both of your parents and grandparents are probably very proud to see their next generation continuing the family tradition.
As someone who has been with this channel from day one let me say that you have the thoughts and prayers of a whole bunch of us behind you. I am psyched up for yet another season and I know you'll deal with whatever unpredictable problems this cycle throws at you with class and good cheer. (and teach us all something along the way too!)
I'm in awe of farmers, forever optimistic that their spring time toil will turn out to be fruitful. May the lord look down upon you with compassion and benevolence, blessing you with a very favorable yield to your endeavors.
Praying you have a great year
May this be a great year
Can you use the telehandler to lift a pallet of seeds so that you only have to open and dump? Best of luck with your 2024 crop.
Laura and Grant wishing you a safe and fruitful growing season
Glad to see you are doing ok after all the weather we've had this week. This video may be before the storm. Saw your message the other night. Your ok .👍
Thank you for sharing your insights, your consistency and passion reflect in every video.
Another great video from our favorite farmer!
Don't climb ladders with bags! Use your JLG tele-handler or a forklift to lift the entire pallet up to the top of your tank. The climb up and dump bags😊
It's all good you missed the tornado so your got a better start for the year
Yay Laura & Grant!
Congratulations on another successful planting season!
If success has one thousand fathers, you two have over one half million parents rooting for you! ❤❤❤
I cannot wait for all the pivot motor mice-capades!😊
I remember being with you when you planted your first field. I am still here a loyal subscriber.
I'm an old man now, but when I was younger, I worked on a farm here in Georgia where the farmer grew a lot of soybean and corn. I ran a bush hog, repaired combines, grain drills, tractors, motor graders, etc. You get the picture. The worst part of the job was that he had a lot of Johnson Grass, which was sporadic and had to be sprayed by hand with a pump-up sprayer that I wore like a backpack. I walked miles, down row after row, having to return to my service vehicle time after time to to refill my tank. It seems like, with all the good that you are fortunate to enjoy in this short life, disappointments and failures are just part of the human condition. You are so lucky to have the life you have with Grant, (and Pepper). What a beautiful life you have. My parents were drunks and left us kids with nothing. I am retired now. I am 68 years old. Glaucoma took out my left eye. I live on Social Security. I have lived with my little sister for the last 10 years. Unfortunately, she passed away last month. And I have to get out of this house by next week. I fell into a pattern of helping the women in my family because no one else would do it. I took care of my grandmother until she passed away, then my Mom for 18 years until she passed away, and then my little sister until she passed away on March 8th of this year. They all developed illnesses, ranging from old age, lung cancer, Crohn's disease and Lymphoma. In doing so, I deprived myself from accomplishing what I needed to do to make sure that I did not end up homeless. I failed in that respect and have to figure out what I can do to survive. Never thought I would end up here. But, you have to deal with what life throws at you. I have a Harley and all the camping gear I need. So, I guess I am off on a new adventure. Do not know where I will end up, but if you ever need a dependable farm hand that is focused on your goals, and who has a CDL, (don't know if I could pass the D.O.T. physical, with the Glaucoma), but, I can still drive a truck. I actually love driving 18-wheelers. I really miss it. I know this was lengthy. But, I also know you are a people person and you actually care. What a refreshing youtube channel to be a part of. Wish I had met someone like you when I was young. Love the channel and the content. Very smart and very adorable. Grant is sooooo lucky. Love you guys and good luck with year's planting.
God bless both of you.I have the utmost respect for your family for farming
Good to see you back in the fields planting. I hope everything goes smoothly and you get a record crop. Good Luck
Its 4:30 into your video and I want to remind you that you have GREAT skill and want to be able to let your machines work and do the proper job YOU set them to. Trusting in yourself is HUGE and does take time and energy. Heck, even at the age of 54 I still question myself.
Day 0 ???
Always my favorite time of the year, first day of planting. I raise my coffee mug to a successful season. Looking forward to the next adventure.
Such a prodigious young woman. She seems to have the mind, wisdom and soul of someone who has lived many decades. Frankly she reminds me of my daughter. 🙂
Congratulations 🎉 on getting the first day of planting knocked off!
Why not use the telehandler to lift up the seed pallet to the planter? Less lifting that way.
Good evening Sunshine! It's great seeing you and Grant again, especially your warm smile and beautiful eyes so full of zest. It was enjoyable going with you both on this shakedown day 0. I know you are a woman of faith as you have mentioned it a few times over the passage of time. You are good stewards of your land and the blessings that God has given you, and I know that God is faithful to those that love Him and follow His word. I understand that the planting time is stressful as you have so much riding on it, but I'd encourage you, once it's done to give it up to God and it's His problem at that point. You do your best and let Him do the rest and take care of you both. You are in my thoughts and I will be praying for you guys. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
I always say and as a farmer, that if I didn't know Him who controls the weather everything else that goes on on our farm I wouldn't be able to get up in the morning and go to work.
I'm know I'm only at 4:29 but Laura... you and Grant got this! I know for sure 2024 will be the best year yet! We believe in you two!
9:37 - why I believe in you two.
We in the warm state of Florida have been anticipating this day along with your family and Pepper! God bless and get rolling!
God bless this plantation, may the harvest be 100 times more than last year...
Gamblers in a casino can't hold a candle to the gamble a farmer makes every spring! You've got this Laura and Grant and God will bless your hard work and faith to go forth and farm! Looking foward to a successful year for you both!
Planting corn is like putting a nickle on a park bench and praying that when you come back months later it's turned into a Quarter.
6 cents would be considered a good year, 20% profit.
Why are you so much better at these planting vids than the other guys? Thank you Laura! May god bless your planting season and we'll be watching! Thank you!
Laura first you and Grant must trust God for his continued blessing's
Yes, it is that time of year again. So fun to ride along.
What an absolutely amazing video Laura! You do such a great job editing and explaining everything you are doing! Very impressive! You paint a very clear picture of how a farmer bets his knowledge, equipment and investment on a successful planting and how critical it is to a bountiful, profitable harvest! We are praying, along with you, for a very successful 2024 farming season. God bless you both and your families for all you do to educate us while you feed and cloth us!🚜
So ready for this!!! Hoping for a smooth planting season and plenty of weekly rain after things are planter😊
What a delight to wakeup in the morning in England to see Laura and Grant planting corn seed. It is handy that Grant is taller, he didn't need to use the steps to lift the bags of corn to the top of the steps to Laura. This is the start of the year for me.
Stay safe and well, love from Mike. ❤❤
That opening! One could see the stress and anxiety one you face and body and hear it in your voice. Then you guys had great day in the field, not counting row 13. Your who;e demeanor had changed by the end of the video…more relaxed and more yourself. Hope you guys had a great, restful evening. Look forward to seeing you soon!
Watching this I see so many parallels to my own life. I have my own "Row 13" issues but llike you did here. I'd say day one was a success. Keep the faith and start again tomorrow. Thanks for letting me come along and watch.
We've been here from the beginning. Can't believe it was four years ago!
I so look forward to your first planting video every year and have done so since your first post when you were planting in April of 2020 at which time I right away subscribed. Love your enthusiasm for farming which I share. The main reason I chose farming as a career is that I really like raising, especially corn, and soybeans in the Midwest. Very familiar with your and Grant's machinery and I watch and enjoy your videos with intensity. I'm glad Hamilton County missed the tornado outbreak(s); and after checking the satellite view of the weather here in Northeast Missouri, I usually have a look at what your weather is.😊😊
Thanks for giving us a lift to get across the field on day zero of planting season 2024. We will be here for you on every row you plant and for every drop of rain you rent to feed your crop.
Off to a good start for 2024 Planting!
hope the best for you guys
Praying you have a blessed season with few and minor issues and the most bountiful harvest you have ever produced. The Lord blesses those that are committed to Him!
Thank you, Laura. I am 4th born of 6. We farmed 117 acres out of 360, 5 miles of ditch; learned how to run a shovel, drove tractor at 9 yrs, hauled hay, Everything was simple in the 50s n 60s, 70s. Love your content. I understand being anxious. Thank you. The only question is: Feed? Ethanol? Who buys?
Quite interesting. I'm a vehicle enthusiast (from fighter jets, to semi trucks, to sports cars) and don't know a lot about farming tractors. This is informative and very interesting. Thanks for sharing these things with us, Laura . You're awesome!
Lord, please be with Grant and Laura this planting season. Keep them safe and Bless there work and may there crops grow strong in Jesus Name Amen!
Congrats on starting the new season! YOU CAN DO IT!
You guys got this. You have Grant, He has you. Together, you can do anything.
Thanks for taking us along.
Don’t worry Laura papa curt has your back. Stay focus and safe and bless your planting season
So happy your planting, I enjoy watching you guy's do what love !!!
God Bless you now!
Great to see you guys!😊
Thanks as always for sharing your life with us!!
❤ The channel!!
A pleasure to come along with you. Been along for years now. Good luck in the new season. I promise to wave as I drive by on I-80.
Laura... that intro you did was so detailed, well thought out and professionally presented. Well done young lady! I hope all goes well for you and Grant during planting and that everything happens without any major glitches. Take care, stay safe, and happy planting!
Have a great season you guys! Be safe!!!
I certainly hope and wish for you a very successful farming season. Enjoy seeing you Laura & Grant working together and even old fossils like me learn something from you young & energetic folks. Thank you again.
Good to see you out there doing what you love! Be sqfe!
You can do it Laura you do awesome jobs
Hey Laura, in Florida we wear light colored clothing and tee shirts. With the intense sunshine, lighter brighter colors help reflect sunshine and keep us cooler.
We need a Laura Farms summertime line of merch
ThanksLaura!
We❤you!
Best wishes on your planting, I hope it'll all go as smooth as it can be, and that you'll have a fantastic growing season! 😁👍
Pepper is such a sweetie, so affectionate and just loving! ❤I hope her kittens are all doing well, and that they are just as amazing as their mom! 😛
Love your channel Laura. Every day when I come home from work I tune in to you and Grant
Been following you now for 2 years and I'm still amazed by the technology you have at your fingertips for putting a seed in the ground. I look forward to watching another successful season!
I joined when you hit 30K in 30 days. I have been along for the fun ride. Keep on keeping on.
Lifting the whole pallet of seed using the telehandler up to the seed tanks would surely be easier than going bag by bag up the ladder
Yay!! So glad you’re back for planting season. Good luck and God bless you both 👍
Thanks for taking us on.your planting season it got too be awesome how you put a seed in the.ground and watch it grow
It's gonna be a good year guys! We are with you all the way! 😁
Good luck with your planting season we love you guys dearly ❤
Thanks for sharing Laura! I live in the country but have always taken farming for granted! Thanks for educating me! I need to go and thank my farmer neighbors!
Thank you for the videos and thank you for the crops you grow.
I am so impressed with the two of you.
Laura I watch constantly don't stress so much you and Grant do so good because you both were taught by the best. And both are always there to help.
Girl, you have no idea how much I love your videos. It's amazing what goes on behind the scenes of a farmer. Very educational, but entertaining and exciting to watch :)
Laura relax, this is the fun of the first day of planting so relax and enjoy it, it might not work as well as it should but it will get done some relax and enjoy
That snap shot of you in 2020 was great! I've been with you most all the way and this is pure entertainment. Thanks to you both.
From Denmark,
Great to see you with your desire to work and to make it all work.
Thumbs up from Denmark.
I’m excited to see you start another season. Looking forward to see how it all turns out again. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing your story and experience with us. It’s so enjoyable to watch as you and Grant as you go about your daily journey. I’ll be here as long as you’re able to continue this channel.
Laura, you are stressing ME out😄 Just remember to take a deep breath, trust in your skills and knowledge, and know that you’ve done all of this before and that you’ve got this.
😁 SUNFLOWERS ! Do the research. We had a six row planter... with lots of hand labor what an improvement over the old days. well that works to hard . Work smart . Telehandler hose bags up to the bins . Wishing you a great season . thanks
Have a great planting season. Love your videos.
Let’s go. 2024 planting season. Hope you are blessed with a great year
Praying all farmers around the world have a great 2024 season. Laura and Grant thank you for making such great videos.
I'm not a farmer, and have no connection to LF other than being a distant YT farmer, but the introduction to this video had me on the edge of my seat and now I'm soooo nervous, hoping this planting season goes well! Fully vested!
Huge respect for your enthusiasm & commitment to farming, nice work....and your video's are brilliant!
Cans up and clicking to a good planting season y’all! 🍻🤠
