Adrian, you should be dam proud of yourself for doing what you've done over the years, those memories are precious in life and for your kids too. Well done and God bless your parents.
I’d go as far as saying it’s the best RUclips video I’ve ever watched I’m a young farmer and it’s very inspiring what you’ve achieved Adrian
I was thinking the same myself. One of the best RUclips videos I've ever seen. Just brilliant 👏
I was thinking along similar lines
Agree with you fully. What a joy to watch. As we say here...ppl that work the land are salt if the earth. 🇨🇦
Don't normally comment Adrian but hats of you and the family on the success of your farm development....Serious hard work, sacrifice and Investment for sure. Well done to you and your family 👪, never miss a vlog 👏 Have a great successful 2022 😊
Hi Adrian I am a small dairy farmer from Australia where milking 60-70 cows is not common. My wife and I both work off farm as well ( I am a farrier by trade)so at times it makes for long days. We have 5 grown up children and have enjoyed the times where your kids were helping to move cows stopping calves jumping over temporary electric fences etc ( just like us) . Until recently I was beginning to question whether to keep going with a small herd and was perhaps embarrassed to be such a small farmer. Then you and your videos came along and you have inspired us and we have a completely new attitude . We want to be like Adrian with a beautiful, neat tidy little farm. When we are planning or doing new projects we even impersonate you with put on Irish accents. I do have Irish heritage from Cork. Thank you so much you have made us proud to be small dairy farmers 😊
That’s what it’s all about Peter, as long as your content that’s all that matters. Have a great 2022
Keep farming Peter, I jumped out and miss it
I'd love to see an Aussie dairy farmer on youtube, Missing home grown
Hi Peter, I’m farrier and a dairy farmer here in Georgia USA. I happy to see a colleague in the same situation (I don’t feel that crazy now). I’m looking for the day to be a full time farmer… I enjoy watching Adrian channel a lot, inspired me to keep going when things get complicated.
@@IFarmWeFarmyou went to Ballyhaise in Cavan, what year was that? I spent a summer there many years ago. BatW I find you’re videos very interesting
Adrian the yard and its development is a credit to you. One thing is for sure: you aren't afraid of hard work. Continued success to you and the family.
Possibly the best video that you have done Adrian! Fantastic achievement over a relatively short time - an amazing amount of hard work by you (and not forgetting the support of your family)
Really enjoyed this video, wish I’d been wise enough to catalogue progress on our farms over the decades. Well done Adrian and I’m sure your folks are justifiably proud of you 👍
It made me cry you worked so hard on that farm . From humble beginning to what you have now. Just by sheer hard work . And determination. I am so glad your now reping the benefits now with your family. I so look forward to seeing your videos on Sunday. Makes my day. I respect you so much.Adrian all the best and a happy new year. X
Thanks Abbie
This is my first comment on any you tube video i have watched over the last five years but I feel compelled to congratulate all concerned on what you and your family have achieved over the years. Good luck on the next chapter in your success story.
Cheers mate 👍
You can be proud of what you achieved, Adrian. Your father must be very proud of his son, very very proud!
This is such a good video, it’s nice to see progress, my farm is a weird one, my yard used to be a county council quarry and a lot of the land is either quite steep or dead flat reclaimed bog, my mum has been the only farmer and we only started spending in the last 8 years, for us it’s a hobby but it’s also a good investment.
It’s amazing how much progress a young man can make, and I believe that young man is still making paces of progress
Well Adrian fair play just goes to show what can be achieved with a bit of hard work and graft! Your videos have helped me decide to start up the home farm again!
Farmers do get it tough, and being one of the hardest demanding jobs on the planet, where many people just dont understand without farmers, you dont eat period!
Thank you very much for the memories Adrian, fantastic progression through the years and all down to being a great son and hard work. Thank you very much for sharing. 👍🏼
Adrian I was delighted with what you said about the machinery,so many young lads think it's all about fancy machines and in fairness they can be a great help but it's the infrastructure that makes you money, the drainage work the reseeding and roadways that let you actually carry the stock and the accommodation that lets you get the stock off the land when you need to that's what you need to focus on . I have been watching your videos from the start and although I rarely comment I just want to let you know that I think you have been rubbing off on me, I have just about finished converting an old six bay shed into a new calf rearing unit to accommodate 80 to 100 calves ( we were locked up with TB in November so needed more room for the bulls) and I have been a lot more fussy about it than I usually would have been maybe it's just old age or that you have encouraged me to do it right in the first place and it makes life easier for everyone ( and I include the cattle in the everyone) just finished hanging 30 gates all swinging bolting and adjustable, thanks for the inspiration and keep up the good work.
Thanks lad 👍
Thanks for sharing that A., brilliantly put together and the transformation is heart warming...you must be so proud of your families achievements 👏👏👏
Inspirational Adrian, hard work and honesty pays off. All the best for 2022 and keep up the videos. Love them on a Sunday after breakfast.
We have a small farm in Cornwall. Really enjoying this channel. Excellent attention to detail
Great video . Id say you were some man for the Rubarth tarts Adrian. I'm wondering will the twenty be ready d year for the big garden and a few auld spuds. ? Maybe even a few Blac k currant bushes ?
Absolutely brilliant video. So natural. Well done!☘️👍
Hi Adrian that history shows your strength of character, you have earned and deserve the best, keep safe .Keith
Quite a journey, lots of hard work and innovation by yourself and the family. Fair play + continued success!
Excellent video Adrian. You are a great storyteller. Hard work is never easy but it's results are always a source of personal pride. Pride, but not arrogance. Arrogance tends to come from those that get things easy.
The dad’s pole shed has last 30 years+. It will last decades more with proper up keep. Never a good idea to tear down a good pole barn/garage as they always come in handy for something in the future you never thought about. Glad you’re keeping it.
U are a good farmer Adrian very honest man. Joe o mahony
Well done ye made mighty job place
Marvellous to see how you have built the farm from what it was to current times 🇬🇧🇮🇪.
You should be really proud of the progress you've made to the farm, I'm sure your father would be
Its nice to see how your farm yard has developed over time wishing good health to your mum and dad
Following the channel for years and always enjoyed the videos, but this one is by far the best one yet! What a great look at how the farm has progressed. All the best for the next Twenty Years.
This is brilliant and is exactly the kind of thing that I needed to see, i'm looking at starting milking here on 70 acres with a decent bit of infrastructure and slurry storage, lets just hope that they'll still be allowing new entrants in about 5 years time when I would be able to get in. Great video as always and i do appreciate seeing that its possible to have a profitable small herd as there's not so much talk about that nowadays.
Hi Adrian, I just want say that your videos are so motivating. Much appreciated. 🎉
What a fantastic story adrian,your dad must be so proud of all uve done all the improvements uve made moving the farm forward and all your hard work.bet hes looking forward to goin on a spin on that tractor when the weather is warmer.
Well done Adrian and fair play 👏 This video is very inspiring to me and other farmers around the country. Just shows that with some planning and hard work anything can be achieved 💪
As they say, "Rome wasn't built in a day". Thanks for making the great content.
Really enjoyed that Adrian, great point on not pulling down old sheds unless you have to., food for thought!
Best of luck for the future and looking forward to following your progress.
Great video again Adrian. It's great to see how much the farm has changed over the years. As for goin travelling and seeing other places, in the song The streets of New York the ould fella says to the son "maybe there's somethin' you'll learn, or you'll see
And you can bring it back home, make it easy on me". Just cos it was always done that way does mean it's the best way. You have made the yard work for you and fair play to ya.
absolutely cracking video Adrian, the whole farm is a credit to you and your family, always enjoy your videos as everything is done right and with a great deal of thought, farm and kit is always immaculate, which is difficult on a dairy farm in the winter , keep up the good work and look forward to watching your farm evolve further
I really enjoyed this episode. I think the vast majority of people really don't comprehend at all the amount of knowledge a farmer needs to have, and the amount of hard hard work they put in every single day. You should feel very proud of what you have accomplished, and what your parents accomplished before you. They never gave up, and neither did you. I do so enjoy these videos. It was nice to see the pictures at the end, to see how far the farm has come. I do realize this was 10 months ago, I hope your father and mother are doing well now.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing your life.
A superb personal documentary film, Adrian, thank you. Its really interesting to see the evolution of a small family dairy farm, and hope you get to do many more fine improvements before your children take over!
Hi adrian do you ever think on bringing your dad on to the videos
Your best video to date, very very interesting and very well put over I can see you being a farming program correspondent, I know what you mean about the old shed its a reminder of times gone but not forgotten, no doubt in years to come some of the younger ones will take it down to move forward, I also know how you were feeling when your parents had some heath issues for some reason you always think they are invincible, it would be interesting to hear their young life story on Farming or how they got there, great video Adrian
Brilliant video Adrian great to see the old photos and the progress you and you Dad have made over many years. So impressive how much is done by hand and what can be achieved if your willing to put the hard work in. You and your Dad have created a wonderful legacy for your girls. Wishing you every success in this new year and looking forward to seeing all the future projects you have in store. 💞🤗🍀
Absolute brilliant video. you must be very proud of your achievements you have made. Well done sir.
I absolutely love following you all. Your never still, always on the go x
This was absolutely brilliant big man! well done to you Adrian.
You should get your father to tell his story as well.
Fair play to you. Life waits for no one. It's all about moving forward or being left behind 🤔. And you have put the right foot forward great job. 👍.
You make your parents proud as well as showing your children what can be accomplished with hard work can get you.
That was Awesome Adrian respect to your farther for all the hard work he did keep up the great work Adrian 👍👍✊✊🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴👌👌
I watched your video because I saw all that beautiful green grass in the background (what grass we had here was brown and crunchy) and stayed because your videos are so interesting and some of the best that I've seen on YT. You and your Dad's hard work have produced a tidy thriving farm. All the best to you and your family in 2022.
Good morning Adrian, thank you for the video and the start of the family/your farm!! Happy New Year and take care!!👍😎🇬🇧.
Well done Adrian fantastic video and was really touched by your decision not to knock down the shed your father built. You've a fabulous setup in your farm and the bonus that you had you were skilled to do most of the work yourself. Congratulations Adrian and all the health and happiness for the future and I know your parents are very proud of their son that is carrying on what they started.
Best comment in my opinion
Last photo says a thousand words. Well done Adrian. You deserve what you have and gained over the years. Continued success and good health to all.
Love watching your videos
Your a “down to earth” straight talker”
Very informative and entertaining
Looking forward to your next video
Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Wishing you continued success Adrian, much respect for your achievements to date.
Probably one of my favourite videos you've made. Very interesting seeing the progress your dad and yourself have made on the farm and listening to the story's from the past.
Well done Adrian your an inspiration to both young and old. It just shows how hard work can pay off.
Amazing to see where it all started and what you have made of it so far! A testimony to hard work paying off!
Fantastic video how time's have moved on.great 2 see u and your dad in the thick off.still trying 2 work out your age lol.🤔
The farm is a credit to your mum and dad for starting it off and when you took over you brought the farm forward to the present day with a lot of hard work and careful planing and it fantastic to see it all your mum and dad must be very proud of you for what you have done and the way you are taking the farm forward and the help your wife and the girls help you. You need to get the Ferguson ready for your dad for the summer and good luck in all you do
What amazing story quite impressed nice to see old pics amazing video 1976-to-2022
Hi Adrian, You should be very proud in what you have achieved well done differently not easy at the times but when you see the results it's is satisfying.
Hard to do when everything has to be costed and budgeted too.
All this infrastructure does not appear in one go if so theirs a massive loan in the bank that has to be paid back.
Roman wasn't built in a day!!
Wasn't easy either too building a house getting married and major farm infrastructure going on say in 2008 a busy year for you!!
Well done!!
Really interesting video! Great to listen to your stories
Thank you for sharing this video! Great to see how the farm has developed over the years.
Well done Adrian to you and your dad on building the family farm the way you have it today👍 I loved the pictures at the end as my mother says pictures are priceless best wishes for 2022
Adrian you should be really proud of everything you've achieved a great video for any young farmer starting out that you don't need to bog yourself into debt buying top of the range equipment a lot can be achieved by taking your time and planning. Take care of yourself and stay safe
What about your ground how many acres do you have. Did you buy any ground or was it all passed on to you. Tidy place ypu have
I will cover that in an upcoming video Sean 👍
Great video Adrian. A credit to you. Good to hear that your parents watch your videos. They must be proud of what ye all have achieved through honest hard work. Well done and keep up the good work.
I strongly recommend that you output this video onto media that you can keep copying well into the future and not just leave it on RUclips. This is fantastic family history and something future generations will really appreciate. I really enjoyed watching this myself. It is interesting listening to how you refer to things in Ireland. Being a Welsh speaking Welshman, I am quite ignorant to how things are referred to in English as we simply never used English words for a lot of things. Not only that, but hear you and Farmer Phill for that matter, refer to Boxing Day as St. Stephen's Day in English was interesting. In Welsh, we call it 'Gwyl San Steffan' (The Feast of St. Stephen), but when speaking English, call it 'Boxing Day', so it is not unusual, but I never knew that in Ireland it was called St. Stephen's Day regardless of language. Thank you for this wonderful video!
Hi Adrian great video nice to see the history of your farm. Our farm changed in 2007 when we knocked 2 sheds and put a slatted unit and a calveing shed in their place and cubicles in a hay barn and lean too. All that made life easier. Ur very interesting keep up the good work👍
Big clap of hands...respect to your father's work 👏
Have just discovered your channel..my husband and I are so impressed with your work ethic and positive attitude..so encouraging! ..and your love and respect for the shed your dad built☺
Adrian a small clean well run dairy farm is much better then a big dairy running around and can’t get everything done
Creaid to ya with all you have achieved it’s a fine layout and setup ya have built up best of luck for 2022
Absolutely brilliant great to see all the old pictures and the way it has transformed. By far favourite RUclips channel. Keep it up👍
Brilliant my man...just a fabulously great job you do. Stumbled on your channel recently and I have been inspired to watch every one you have posted. I love your values and your sense of family and community. Great story 👏 Thanks, or as you say there and we say here, tanks from 🇨🇦
Adrian I absolutely loved that thanks for sharing. Amazing how much you have done to the farm your an absolute credit to your family .love seeing how farms change over the years as each generation makes there mark.Happy new year to you and your family. 😊 Thanks
Definitely the best video of all Adrian. A PURE CREDIT TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 👪. You have made a lot of comfort for yourself now and enjoy it with your young family. God bless your parents 🙏.
Great to hear you story Adrian. Hard work a plan and persistence always pays off at some point or another. Really good to see what you achieved. Fair play
Excellent video Adrian, love the honesty in you’re videos, you should be a very proud man/farmer/father, well done my family love your videos thank you so for the entertainment and what I’ve learned from your channel 🐄🇮🇪🚜
Great history of the farm Adrian, its nice when you have pictures of the past to look back on and see the progress, as I've said before, your place is the smartest, cleanest and well organized i have seen for some time, i too worked on other farms before taking over the family farm and i totally agree with you that it was an important part of the learning curve to see how other well run farms worked and you take that away with you to help you moving forward with your own farm, more valuable than anything you can learn in a class room.
Thanks David, was just looking through photos for this video during the week, photos I hadn’t seen for a long long time, I got very distracted by them if I’m honest. Great memories
Such a great video Adrian seeing the development of the whole farm. Your by far the best RUclips farmer to follow. We dairy farmer in Co Tyrone till my parents sold up and immigrated to Canada. I still remember farming over there well and watching your videos is complete nostalgia for me. Makes me miss the grass fields and livestock out grassing you just don’t get to see that here
ADRIAN an absolutely excellent video as usual, the work ethic and
drive of both you and your father is just incredible want ye have achieved against all the odds is just unbelievable , others inherent big f
Absolutely brilliant video. Such a great advertising for irish farming. Just exactly how most farms all have went. Your a credit to your parents and I'm sure there as proud as anything. Would you ever have a open day or something sometime. I got to meet Farmer Phil and his family at his pumpkin patch and it was great to see people you see on this every week. Just a thought!! I understand what you said about your parents. When there so fit and able its not nice to see them get a setback. Keep d good work goin.
Fecken great video and farm top class 👌👌👌👌
Tip top vid enjoyed very much thanks Adrian 🚜🏴👍
Well Adrian, what an amazing video, how you fit all that info into 37 minutes was unbelievable. Love your work ethic & the way you pre planned, yes its hard at the start but now you reap the rewards. Your family will have a secure future. Well done that man. X
I wasn't watching your videos from the start but have been with you for a good while now.Very interesting to see the work you have carried out.Great video.I watch a few orher farming videos as well.Funky farmer,Famer P and a few in the US.
Good video intresting on what you've done over the years and a proud father he is and a proud son you are of him .. all the best for 2022
Thx for sharing. You can see what the memories & love that's gone into your family farm. Is there interest in your girls to keep the business going?
Definitely so, but time will tell I guess. We’re making good memories as we go
You are an amazing man with God’s gift for farming and all things entrepreneurial! Ireland would be wise to make you Secretary of Agricultural and let you help farmers plan good, sustainable farms of all kind. But you wouldn’t be happy because you are a “hands on” person. Keep on doing what you’re doing!! Your example here on Facebook to others is priceless!! God bless you!!
Grabbing a mug of taeee for this one!
Same.
Just catching this now Adrian, that is an amazing transformation and I’m not one bit surprised because you’re a serious grafter and an inspiration to us all. You’ve put that place in good stead for many generations to come . Well done 👊🏻💪🏻
Hi Adrian,well that was fascinating watching you explaining your life history on your parents farm,damed if you don’t deserve all good things in life matey👍 I can hear in your voice how proud you are in all the stress,hard-work ,achieving how far you have come,think we can all admire and respect your attitude towards your family,animals and machinery,well done you 🍻
Cheers Kevin
I have just come across your channel and this video I found it very enjoyable and lots of information thanks for Sharing I have just subscribed to your channel and I will look forward to see more about your farm
I wished when I was Younger I had the opportunity that people these days
Hey lad what a fabulous story …you should be very proud…the cleanliness of the farm is a credit to your work ethic 👌👌
Great video. And great to see the progress over the years. Not everyone starts off with big farms. Some have to build them up. You’ve done great work. Great achievement
Thanks Gerry 👍
Really enjoyed this one Adrian. You have put in some hard yards to get the farm to where it is.
Amazing video Adrian, fantastic way to start a Sunday morning here in Calgary Alberta Canada. Listening to the tone in your voice as you talk about your parents it's easy to see how proud you are of what they started that allowed you to carry on the family legacy. Stay safe.
Excellent video Adrian. Well done. Bit like my old man brought our farm from old barns to modern sheds over the years with very little.
