- Produced by Charing Cross Production in cooperation with Ross Farm Museum, this video was created to show a grandfather passing on the skill of yoke making to his grandson. Watch as Brandon and his grandfather Roy work together to create a yoke, an item that secures a team of oxen together and allows farm equipment and machinery to be pulled by them. It's extremely important to keep skills such as yoke making alive by passing them on to the younger generations. We thank Brandon & Roy Levy for allowing us to capture this great skill being passed down as well as Robert Hutt of Charing Cross Productions for doing such a great job on the video. This is a 3 part video series so stay tuned as part 2 will be posted very shortly!

People like this are real legends and should be respected and appreciated. People want to learn what they know for crafts or a hobby and these guys did it to survive.
What a shame this great, well made, and very informative video has had no comments, I loved this vid. Thanks to these people for the info. And may we all hope and pray we never have to use this kind of knowledge, (but need to know,) to feed our families. I am a Rural Heritage History buff and love these kind of vids, keep up the good work.
Great video! Very motivating. Moved from the city to the Rocky Mountains a year ago, I'm finding a new love of old hand tools and wood working. Thanks for sharing.
love this way of living more young ppl need to learn and preserve this old lifestyle...
Your grandson is lucky to learn the old ways. Most of us don't even know those ways existed. Nice video, keep up the good work.
Thanks Cajun Homesteader, we appreciate your comments! Happy Holidays!
My cousin back in Vermont, has 6 oxen that he shows, and works. He also builds yokes for people in the "pulling" club.
the right history is worth a leather pouch of gold and silver coins..
I really enjoted this video,and am intersted in making one!!
I found this video helpful, I have a single steer that I'm going to train to plow, is there a video of how to make a single ox yoke?... I wish this was a little more informative, but helpful none the less.
What breed of oxen do you own and from what country was this video produced. ? It takes a lot of training to get a yoke of oxen to work for you and a person that really knows how to handle these animals. This is another way some people are keeping parts of past generations alive to show us how people had to log years ago.
Those look like highland cattle instead of oxen.
They are highlanders and they are oxen.
