Our Worst Nightmare- Harvest isn't far off, we're only a couple weeks away from Harvest preparations. In the meantime I'm working on making some trails for the kids in the woods for their ATV'S. Isla and I hauled some corn to the ethanol plant. The corn is dry and we're drying up. The good news is we don't need to spray for aphids because the crops are almost non existent. Harvest should be quick and easy unless our worst nightmare happens and it starts raining.

You are a pretty good driver
“ just another day trimming the bush………the flag pole looks taller now……”
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Caught that too!? 😉🤣😂🤣
One of Zach’s best….🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
At a church too lol
Bad to the bone 😂😂
Hope your dad’s surgery goes well, We’re about the same age and I had my left one replaced last March and getting the other one done this November so I feel his pain! Good luck this harvest and prayers from Arkansas!
This subject is very interesting to me. I'm 63 and had a full right knee replacement last March also. Best wishes!
The skills now, they replace a knee and 3 weeks later its ready for use.
Hi Terry I'm from AR too, how are you liking your knee replacement? I'm 32 but due to mileage incurred in football, car crashes, and in the Marine Infantry I'm cruising for replacements by 50.
@@hithere7382 if my next surgery goes as well as the first one did then I will be very happy! I use Dr. Ken Martin in Little Rock and he’s great! Hope yours goes well also. Good luck!!
When that chain broke, I heard Chet say "junk"
Always a good day when Zach posts
:)
Not with this title
Ik that's right

Excellent farmer-kid Dad, terrific racing vid-editor mom. The kids have a good family. So blessed, all of you! Best wishes for quick healing for Pappa Yohnson.
I remember back in the day when all the farmers around would let us ride our ATV's on the outside of the crops. Or make trails in their woods. Then some city folk moved in and drove trough the crops and wreaked their 4 wheeler all in the same day. And ruined it for everyone. (I'm assuming because the parents tried suing the farmer.) I'm sure it had nothing to do with the lack of parenting.
We ride ATVs as well and my former class mate and life long friend is largest land owner and farmer around here. So we were riding with our group and reached random maize field. Respectful bunch we are so we went around like always. Then I see the very same farmer I was talking about just going diagonally straight through the field 😆😆 he said he wanted to check if it was ready 😂
Exactly correct!!, for years we rode miles and miles around farm fields with no problem. Most of our parents owned the farms but we knew better anyway.
Then here come a few city kids moving out this way and we had to put up signs and gates in less than a month.
It all boils down to teaching our children to have respect
When we were kids we used to ride a huge unkept property that backed up to my house and about a mile a way my friend’s grandparent’s house where he kept his 4 wheeler and dirt bikes. We had tons of trails! Probably close to 10 miles worth. Hours of fun
We posted all our property for a lot the same reason (except nobody tried suing us for wrecks). People would just ride theough standing hay, do donuts in the field, and all kinds of nonsense. We used to let people just ride, and did plenty of it ourselves, but no more unfortunately.
As a fellow Johnson A.K.A (maybe long lost family) You and Chet’s channel’s are my absolute immediate favorites 👍🏼
Y’all should move to Rock Ridge, I hear there’s a whole lot of Johnson’s
"Trouble getting it in the hole" ... and trimming the Bush at the flag pole priceless 😂😂👌👌
And whinging about a dry spell.
"Just another day of trimming the bush" the funniest farming on the tube!
Don't forget the joke about the flag pole looking taller after he removed that one bush from near it...lmao
‘Flag pole looks taller’ 😂😂
Nothing more exciting than a well trimmed bush !
As someone that worked in what I think is still North America's biggest water bottle plants I can tell you that water from a bottle is the biggest scam in consumer supplies. The water in the bottle is not tested as well as the water from a city water supply . Unless you have some problems with the tap water your home then you are wasting money . I knew the son of the owner of the plant I worked at and he refused to be a part of it as he knew it was a huge rip off . He ended up working for Honda in a car plant
I loved the straight face after you talked about "putting diesel in the skid steer"......
Really enjoyed the racing videos. The in car of little man is impressive.
I watch from Australia and watching today, I think that the life you have for your children is just great.
We appreciate u taking time to share u're time. Rock on Zac
i am 14 and i absolutely love this channel! when i have kids they will definitely have to grow up on a farm!! Having a farm is the best life ever!!
Do you have a farm with your family?
Had my first knee done 8 yrs. Ago next one August 31. I dread it. Good luck to your dad he's a trooper.
I feel for ya, tough to watch the crop slowly burn up and seemingly everyone else is getting rain. We're better off than you in southern MN, but it's taking it's tole here too. From here it gets better going east, and worse going north and west. I could take you flying sometime if you'd like to see it from the air.
its more authentic if you say tole versus toll. hahah
if Zach is a pilot do you really need to take him flying?
@@terrymertz1923 Does Zach have his own plane? The license is just a piece of paper and some bits in some drives in some servers at the FAA.
you're a great Dad !!! i have a 10 yr Daughter I'm always with her going places.
Ila is getting so tall and still so cute
Thanks for letting me visit with you and your family
Crazy to here how little rain you guys had and how over here in Ontario we are drowning with 26 in and still climbing
Where in Ontario? Were the south-western tip and its been extremely dry this year.
Between London and Chatham
I’m not a big youtuber but you can check out what we are dealing with if you look up the Canadian Farmer
We r up in kawartha lakes and it’s crazy wet
It’s been crazy
The coolest thing ever is the trees that you planted...a wonderful gift for your children.
I road my banana seat bicycle on the deer 🦌 trails through our woods to most of my friends houses. I wasn’t aloud to ride on the road until I was 16. I miss the farm ‼️
I had two uncles that owned a dairy farm when I was a kid. they kept two old garden tractors that they took the decks off for my brothers and I to drive around when we visited. We would pretend to farm with them. My parents would drop us there and we would hang out with them. Some of my very best childhood memories. The farm dogs and cats, going out manure spreading with them on the tractor. Just the best of times.
That flagpole joke might just be the best joke you've come up with. I feel like you top yourself with each vlog lol
I didn't catch it right away. Little over a minute later I was like.... Hold it.
@@johnhurd6243 me too😂
Yeah the flagpole joke today and a peeing on the floor reference many videos back are prob my favorites.
I was waiting for lightning to strike😁😁
I didnt catch it at first either.....freaking comedian in the making
Hope that surgery does wonders for him, my Fiance's Grandpa got a replacement hip and it was a game changer. My dad goes in for a new hip on Thursday. Hope the rain this week hasn't been too harsh for you guys up there.
The rain has come to Sweden now, one city got 160mm (6"+) in 12 hours. Its insane how much it rained the last 7 days.
My old man had staggered double knee replacement, with complications and a severe infection. All is well now. Godspeed to your old man!
Great to see farmers volunteering!!! Awesome video!
I love to see father and daughter time together. So special
Making memories with the kiddos is always important in my books!!
What a life! As a city guy, I'm so envious of the great freedom you have on so much land. Pretty awesome!
North of your state in Manitoba we are about to get a monsoon with 40-50 cm of rain forecasted for tomorrow, so hold onto your umbrella.
ILA is a good little helper. Boy Dairy Queen has good ice cream. Made me hungry for some. Nice trail through the woods.
"Was that entirely necessary?" Yes. Yes it was. I have fond memories of bombing through the woods on three and four wheelers when I was a kid.
i believe i would enjoy riding with you on a dirtbike if i still owned my former dirtbike
During lockdown, my dad and I did some four wheeler on the trails of his farm and in his forest, it was simply good time
Glad you got a nice rain. Here in Northeast Nebraska, we are in relatively good shape but could still add some yield with a rain this week. With these prices, it looks like a good year.
Thanks for you videos and keep up your efforts in informing others about the modern farmer.
I live in Ohio and we are going to have the best crop of corn that we have had for 10 years we will be praying you get some rain so the corn will fill out.
I’m in Ohio too, you’re not lying this is an excellent year for corn. Some of the best in a long while.
Good job Dad!!! The thing I love most about my parents now that I'm 70 is the things they did for us kids. Half of which we didn't realize was just for us😄
Great family and love a Dad who MAKES TIME for his family ! ( from Canada )
Just another day of trimming the bush.-Flagpole looks taller...... wow LOL!
The trail cutting was necessary. Especially these days when kids don’t seem to want to get outdoors. Although, I am sure your kids are more into the outdoors living on a farm than other kids.
Boomer moment
@@Trentonjmichael but he is right
We’ve had 3” of rain over the last 24hrs here in upstate NY and they’re calling for another 3-4” overnight. It’s a shame this can’t happen out west for you all farmers!
I always wondered as a non-farmer, where would be the "goldilocks" zone in US. I assume any area you could pick would have some kind of a problem like tornados, or perhaps pests. But if it was based on rain and crop type...is there such a sought after place in US? Unless Bill gates and the Chinese have purchased it all.
@@juan-pierreleroux8323 ideally irrigated land is as perfect as you can get. Bad weather and the additional cost of it does still cause for some problems but if you're looking at top dollar per acre, irrigated is the way to go
@@jthomp997 Irrigation is great except when people do it too much it depletes the aquifers faster than they can be replenished. This is especially bad in places like Florida because the whole state has a limestone substrate. A large part of keeping it out of the ocean is the freshwater in their aquifers. They remove it faster than it gets restored to bottle soda and to grow fruits. Eventually this will backfire badly.
For only 1.6” of rain, it looks better than I would have ever imagined!
The size of that tractor really stands out when you park an boat beside it @10:30 ..😁
Thank you great video with you and the kids thank you for sharing your family and your day with us really enjoyed it keep them coming
......... You My Friend Are The Nicest FATHER Ever......
Just The Way You Love Your Children...... Peace Out...
Little bit of memories, my first experience with heavy equipment was running a Bobcat Skidsteer with a mower attachment. DEFINITELY not as nice as fancy as the one here, and out of 8 working days running it, there was probably 2 days where something didn’t go wrong. Motor started to fall off, wheels on the mower falling off, blades hitting rocks and falling off, almost driving the skid-steer off the trailer while loading it
That kid's as cool as a cucumber. Fun to watch you both racing!
Good thing those kids look like their mom. Nothing but love for you brother.
Glad to see your back! Missed the videos! Praying for all the farmers dealing with this weather.
That was great you done that for the Church! People now days don't help people like they use too! God Bless You and Your! Family!
Your daughter is such a sweet heart. Cherish these days, because before you know she'll be off to college.
Being turned into his enemy by liberal "Professors"
We just got another 2 inches for the first time since may
Your children will grow up to be good responsible and respectable people. Thank you for what you do. God bless. Michigan
Exact opposite here in Ontario we can’t get enough of a break from the rain to even get our manure spread
Keep up the good work and good recovery for your father
That’s what’s happening to us in Idaho been so dry now we’re in wheat harvest and keep getting rained out. Good luck over there
Hope harvest goes good getting try here in springville Indiana hauling water to water the greenhouse s
Mom was an advocate for doing both knees at once, for easier recovery time. Both therapies in one. 😉
ND got .5" to 1.8" across the state.
Only 53 days since a rain that was worth a DAMN. PP ground from last year saving us till the past week.
1/2 yield x great price= a year to do it all over again in 2022
My dad mad a hell of a path with an 80cc ATV and some junk go-karts
Thanks for sharing all you do
Zac cutting the trail is such a dad thing, loved it mate!
It's Zach
I really hope your Dad's surgery goes well...prayers all round🙏
Meantime you keep that bush trimmed!!! 😛😈🤣🤣
I've never seen any of this channel before, but I just watched some of this video, so now I can say with very good confidence that I have seen it.
I'm a no body just trying to make it out here I don't have much ive got love for me & my family thats all we need. Thank you always man
Its crazy to see how dry it is there when its so wet here that we can barely get into some of our fields without getting stuck
My worst nightmare is brush cutting and finding Grandpa's "we're gonna use it" roll of barb wire from 1993...
Nice farm! I remember a guy who had all the farm toys until the bank recalled all his loans and lost it all. Sad.
Once again you can have some of our NE NY rain. Now we get Fred tonight. I've done those kind of paths in overgrown fields for horseback riding. Got a little carried away with my patterns though because some of the people couldnt find their way out!
This is how a good morning starts at 6 in the morning with a new post of THE Millenial farmer. Good morning
Funny, we've had 6 1/2" of rain... In the past WEEK here in western NC!!! Wish I could send you half of it...
Nice to see others worshipping at an old church too, our church was built back in 1896 and we LOVE it :-)
My daughter loved horses too... Until we got her a two for her and my wife to ride and it came time to muck the stalls... Then she decided she didn't like them quite as much ;-) You're a great dad!!! Enjoy every minute cause I walked my baby down the aisle last year and it seems like I was changing her diaper only a couple weeks ago... :'-) Time flies when you're having fun!!!
If the plants shut down earlier because of no rain, will harvest start early? And its good to see people like you who already do so much for the community helping out the church! Thank you for what you guys do!
I don't live too far from Menominee-- maybe will come out just to cheer you guys on.
Another 1.5 inches of rain in the KC MO area.
I’m afraid it’s a bumper crop for us this fall. Timely rains all year.
Greenbush...funny to hear my hometown on YT. Used to hear the races from my folk's place 3 miles away. Hallock was another hot place to race many years ago.
Summers where you’re just constantly praying for rain and the 10 day shows none in sight are the worst. We’ve thankfully been blessed with timely rains in West Michigan this year (first summer like that in a very long time) but praying something turns around for you. I know when we’re struggling with drought, it’s painful just even having to see the corn. Almost better to go on vacation until it rains or harvest gets here.
We get over an inch of rain just about everyday here in the low-country of SC.
You need a heavier chain than the one you had pulling trees . When it damp you can still harvest the soybeans . If it gets to wet that's when it's nice to have 4 wheel drive . Where I harvest 4 wheel drive is handy especially if you have to harvest corn when you're leaving ruts tire deep .
Zach, sorry to hear about the poor expectations on harvest. I enjoyed your other video too, especially cool to see Onyx doing well racing.
Your kids are precious! Love to all from Texas!
You're a great father Zach, thumbs up.
Some ones little face always gives me a smile , protect at all time.
We have 18 acres of hay ground and I am just finishing first crop. Mostly cuz I busted the bale r and because with no rain it never really grew. At least you can cut and bale the same day. It's dead dry standing.
Praying for some rain for you. We had a wet spring and just had some good rain for the last four days. Praise the Lord.
Our soybean got mites (I hope I got the right word) because we had so long awfully warm(95-99) days. We did spray it 2 times and felt like we did nothing. Corn got burn up to the 4. and 5. leaves, but we got a nice rain that helped a loot. And we could say that we are lucky, because there are farms where they didn't had any rain after planting. I don't know what corn will the harvest if they even have anything to harvest.
Great job Zach.... love seeing your family... hope the crop situation improves.
Its great to see young boys with a passion they love to do instead of sitting in front of the tv.
Zack... I will give you 5 inches of rain. Here is the Houston, Texas area we have had over 8" of slow rain. Things are really green. I hope you get some. As I type I can hear lightning and thundering outside. The Generac generator came on several times as the power went out for a while. Thank goodness for Generac.
we've had 3 inches this week in northeast ohio ill sent some out west in a heartbeat
We had over 8 inches overnight here in Mid Michigan. (Record for us) altho over a week later stuff is still flooded and soggy. Amazing how just a few miles can make a difference with the summer storms
That's great. Rain too late on the crops is almost as bad as no rain.
I hope things dry up when harvest time.
Another thing is mildew and mold could set in. If it's not one thing it's another.
Wish I could send some of hurricane Fred’s rain your way, we got a lot in southwestern VA. We’re expecting to have a really good yield in both beans & corn. Definitely ok on moistureeeeeerrr
I’m in southwest VA as well. It’s been brutal down here this week.
Technically I think that is a juniper tree. Most Americans wrongly assume that American red cedar is cedar but it was miss named and is actually a juniper tree.
since your dad is having his knee replaced on our combine we have a set of stairs we ordered that go over top the dials and down infront of the rear tire. it really saves your back and in his case his knee lmk if you need more details
I convinced my dad to replace both his knees at the same time so he didn't have to do the recovery twice. Was a little more work for me to help him but was well worth it when he was up and pain free!
“Just another day of trimmin the bush” 😂😂
Omf, Just another day trimmin the bush! Flag pole looks taller now! lmao dying here!!!!!
Mr Zach, I just have to say that I love your enthusiasm in making fun new things for your kids. I myself and a very outdoor person even being in a wheelchair. I love seeing them playing on their razor. Love the family vids, keep it up man I love your channel and can't express that enougj
GREAT job Zack
@@gerardpeters1840 it Zach, not Zack.
(As Clint Eastwood) dummy...
Lol, reading between the lines/corn rows…my belly is hurting from laughter.
I miss working on the farm it was a good life watching corps go
Every video is like Christmas morning! I feel like I’m catching up with family.
