I am a 5th generation family farmer from West-Central Minnesota. The recent interest in food, combined with a large amount of 'misinformation' has driven me to start this channel. I hope to be someone people can relate to and trust when they question how their food is grown and raised. I also hope to become a 'smarter' farmer through my experiences with this channel. I strongly believe we must have an open mind and a willingness to learn about others, or we cannot move forward as one. My goal is to build the connection between farmers and consumers by facilitating a collaborative conversation amongst everyone. I do this by sharing my day-to-day farming experiences, my opinions on certain topics, and occasionally visiting other farms and businesses to help better understand other farming and business practices. There is no limit to where this channel may go, so please join me!!

And you're spot on, mowing seems to be oddly comforting and satisfying...I think it's because the results are immediately visible...
Like pressure washing lol
Parent of the year right here
Made it 200 likes 😃
"can't believe that butterfly can survive out here with all that GMO corn" looooool
I like all the Damned Near Retarded jabs and the daitin' (crooked governor) jabs.
😂😂😂
if greenies refuse GMO food cause it ain't save but it is for butterflies he protected them😁
I'm proud that you are being such a great spokesperson for American agriculture. You have a way of explaining things that I can't. Thank you for what you are doing! Can't wait for more!
Being a daddy is the best job you'll ever have Zach. Enjoy every minute because before you know it they're all grown up and gone. You're a good daddy son...the world needs more of those! God bless.
Ur daughter is so cute. You have such a great relationship with her. Great video.
Excellent video! !!!! Love the daughter pick up in the tractor! !!!!!
and candy and flowers
She is the apple of your eye they can melt your heart or break it GOD BLESS keep up the good work
Awesome job sir! Kudos to you for being a fun, loving father and a very well established farmer feeding America! Thank you!
I wish i could be picked up from school in a tractor
That is just too cute
I was thinking the same thing. What a lucky girl.
I noticed the same thing with our radishes also. It's amazing how well they work for breaking up compaction.
My dad picked me up in a 4 wheel old JD sprayer for tobacco then we went to spray. I forgot what model it was.
I got taken to school once in a tractor but I’m from england
I remember not that long ago we had a feed store in our town, Yoakum Gin and Feed. They had a corn mill that was used to make fresh corn meal. Mr. Tommy owned the company and had a corn meal grinder in his store. It had two round stones that ground human quality corn into corn meal. He would sell it for about .30 cents a pound. When I got back to my home town I would stop and get about 25-30lbs of fresh ground corn meal. It was course ground and very moist. It sure made some great home made corn bread.
Since then Mr. Tommy passed away and the business turned into a modern farm & ranch store.
I often wonder where is there a gin that you could buy freshly ground corn meal.
I wish people knew or cared more about how important channels like yours are!
This reminds me of our senior prank that turned into a yearly tradition at my high school. We decided it would be cool to drive to school in various agricultural equipment.
2018 marks the 10th year anniversary in fact.
The highschool thought it was cool too, however they did set some ground rules. No combines, no high crops, semis can't have trailers, tractors can't have implements attached, and no dual wheeled tractors.
Eric Chandler cool
Eric Chandler, we have a drive your tractor to school day, our rules are no hauling implements, but 3 point hitch ones are fine. And the tractor must be able to start and drive slow enough in the parade. No lawn tractors, and only tractors.
My school has a bring a tractor to school day, last year my pal brought their nice new Deere combine
Holy moly Isla is adorable. Good job dad.
Your little girl is so adorably cute! And you’re such a sweet father to her! I love that you picked her up from preschool with your tractor. And I bet it didn’t seem unusual to anyone seeing it!!
when you get to operate heavy equipment AND you get to bring the little princess to work......priceless!!!
I always enjoy hedge cutting for that same reason that it can be very satisfying and can make you forget about the crick it induces in your shoulder, back and neck
SJ K d
thanks for being a great Dad!
She's so sweet good love her heart reminds me of my 3 beautiful nieces. Nothing more relaxing than running a batwing mower in a cab tractor.
Coolest dad ever!!! I would have loved to got picked up from school in the tractor and have m&ms waiting for me!!!
I know it’s not solely the reason you show interaction with your little girl, but keep it up. You’re doing a great job of being a present dad. Not a checked out Dad. There’s a lot of boys that grow up to be dads that don’t have or never had a good example of being a dad. Time with your children is priceless. They’re your legacy. God bless from South Texas.
@@underground8346I made $45/hr in Ohio as a lineman. There were certainly closer options to your kids than you chose. That's beside the point. This isnt the forum to stand on your soap box.
"Your breaking the flowers" Kids are great.
😂
With only single wheels on the center of that mower be sure to give the hubs a little extra time and attention. We run dual wheels on centers and eat hubs on the regular. We mow right of way so run them hard but still.
She Will remember the Flowers from Daddy ! I like radishes, but have never grown any like yours .
If you're too busy and need someone to brush hog for you, I'll do it for free! I love the opportunity to be outdoors, especially in nice weather. Love the smell of fresh cut grass & hay.
Pretty nice new mower! My favorite parts were you picking up your daughter from preschool and giving her flowers! It’s great to see families spend time together no matter what they are doing.
Your a great Father and farmer man of the year award here
She is a doll for sure.
Enjoy every second with her that you can. She will be grown and gone before you know it.
"This is one of those oddly satisfying jobs." Couldn't agree more. Pass after pass, oddly relaxing and satisfying to pull a brush hog,
the corn you pulled looked great! lol - pick up daughter from preschool in the tractor, loved it... from a 6 foot to a 15 foot wow now that's an upgrade in tool size.... I'm so looking forward to combine rides with you again this year... another thumbs up video, thanks.
Oddly satisfying is right, I mow roads and it’s always a blast to mow 6 foot tall weeds and look behind you at a nice clean right off way 😁
Aww that's so cute daddy and his daughter doing some farm work 😊😊
We have already a week where we started harvest with 12-13% moisture and about 30°C here in Greece
Nice!
Vg
Vangelis, similar here in Northern Serbia - we started few days ago. Moisture is 14-15% and daily temperatures are 27-28°C. A real "Indian summer"!
Just wanna say thank you for all the hard work you farmers do to provide for everyone
If you have a metal working shop nearby, hammer sharpening the blades is the best way to sharpen brush chopper blades.
Used to love cornfields now I just think of children of the corn every time I pass one
Sure wish my dad picked me up from school on the tractor. How cool is that 🚜
Love the farmers and the life they instill in the young ens
That GMO corn line gave me a giggle. At the same time, we don't have GMO corn for a few miles near us lately. (along with really aggressive spray laws) We got a lot of mason bees, butterflies, and all kinda pollinators these days we haven't had for years. Since I was a little kid. It took 3 years to recover.
AAAH YES! The good life. Good values...great people!
thank you it reminded me of my daughter when she was young 30. year's ago
OMG, you took a old so called tough guy, and made his heart melt with that beautiful little girl. how old is she, i love the way she talks
She's just over 3!

Hey mate, did you say that you are surprised by the butterfly being alive near the cornfields ?
All the best with the harvest mate, and hi to the cute little farmer for us here down under
Throw back to me and my grandad.. simple times.
I work on a farm in Maryland and I love driving my john deere
your daughter is absolutely precious and adorable, im usually not a person to find kids cute but she's an angel for sure
Got picked up in a big green tractor, mowing radishes, and bringing home corn to mom... That's a future farmer if I've ever seen one.
My son-in-law's father planted a cover crop of those radishes. I tried eating them too but one bite was enough. Your daughter is a cutie. Thanks for sharing.
They're not real good!
My grandpa has a bush hog and he puts it on his Kubota and I now for him it’s so fun to mow at his farm house
I officially have myself a farming job I actually start working Monday!
With so many farmers selling to developers it is wonderful to hear you are opening new ground.
Lucky man living on a farm. Country boy stuck in the city here. I do get the privilege of hunting a private farm in Eastern Michigan every October/November though. My favorite place to go, take my daughter's out there and let them shoot my AR. Priceless
Your daughter reminds me of my daughter when we grow corn. She loves being the corn fields and our pumpkin field. Seeing their smiles being out there is priceless in my opinion. No matter what it is that I’m doing on the tractors, my kids practically fight for a ride on the tractor even if I’m just getting fuel lol.
In southern Illinois on September 8th we had 9 inches of rain in less than 12 hours, some farmers where mudding out corn so the river don't get it
She is adorable. When she had the chocolate on her face she was more adorable. Angela from Maryland
We need more videos with the little one ( i dont know how to spell her name sorry) her innocents really brings the video together. Got yourself a great little girl there and youre a great father.
Im glad to see that you take time to be a father as busy as you are!! These days thats rare tech. Has split famlies apart. Keep up the good work.
He could pick me up anywhere driving anything 😊
fun to see your kids hanging out with you. im suprised to see your butterfly that close to the G.M.O. stuff too. LOL, good luck with harvest.
You monster, you are breaking the flowers ! xD
Very cute daughter, I wish I grew up on a farm.
The skid steer horizontal brush hog will mulch a 8" tree stem. Great to reclaim old farm land and building lots. We stockpile tree limbs with 3' x 150" fur/hemlock for replanting. A 30-40 YEAR cycle. Cedar blocks straight grain is $2100 per cord. Curious about leveling machines and rock picking? Curious about moisture non irrigation historical record?
Curious equipment storage versus vehicles storage?
Butterfly surviving Next to the corn I'm still dying😂
I wish my mower blades looked like that....mine basically just beat the grass until it breaks, it doesn't cut. Every time I sharpen or get new blades I scalp the ground or hit a massive log.
Sunday September 15 just drove through MN on highway 23 from SD I think some one turned the corn dryer on. 90 degrees and windy. We have been having some good crop drying weather. Good luck on the harvest.
One thing that I find more satisfying than bush hogging is picking ear corn with a one row corn picker😀
I'll try to send you some of my Texas wind.....its always warm!
God and Jesus bless America and hardworking farmer that is so beautiful seeing a kid and it's a daughter or son working with a father that would make america a beautiful country
Thursday nite it snowed in northern Canada while cutting canola!
Keep it up there
Looks like y'all might have a good year. lucky
We have about 9,500 acres under snow right now I hope you guys dont get any snow before harvest is done.
When you live in a small town and you can just drive your tractor everywhere...
Loved the comment about the butterfly and the GMO corn!
When he picked her up from school all the other kids probably had their faces against the window yelling “tractor!!”
You picking your daughter up from school in the tractor was pretty cool to see. BTW if it were me I would move one of the two wheel and hub set ups from the wing to the center section of the shredder so that you have four total in the middle and one on each wing. The reason I say this is because when the wings are up all the weight is on the tires and components on the center section.
In case anyone on this side of the pond (UK, Europe) is wondering what CRP is: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_Reserve_Program
Sister really enjoy watching your your little kid Isla
Good ta see your crop growing well
You can sharpen Brush hog blades with a 9" or 4" grinder .. You can touch them up when they are still on the Mower.. Brush Hog blades don't really have to be sharp. Both blades should weigh the same I suppose..
Great video and your daughter is a doll. You will love watching these videos in the future of her.
Just subbed your channel👍 I'm only on 5 acres but I do brush hog it. Just purchased a new brush mower this year, a 6 ft Walco powered up with a 1957 John Deer 420w also put a 6 ft finish mower on 3 point for the main yard. One of the more enjoyable things I do around the place.
Good video, love how you get your daughter involved 😎
Awesome to see your little one out in the field with you. Even if she decides to go into a different direction, career wise, she will always remember these times I’m sure! Keep up the awesome work both in the field and with the family.
We have a larger cutter very similar to yours. We keep our equipment very clean like you do. The best way to keep it clean is use leaf blower before it gets rained on. By doing that we never have to wash it.
lol.. cute.. #breakingflowers.. tractor ride, M's , flowers, Corn, Dad time. = Win.
Aweee bless her heart. Made my day seeing a little len happy on a farm whilst being loved by her dad! Great videos as always Sir, I and a few of my mates love your channel and watch you frequently and will continue to do so. Many thanks, Charlie Ong.
Our harvest in northern Alberta hasn’t even started and we’ve got snow already
what part of Alberta because i am all so from Alberta
Cole Rudneski county of Vermilion river
Coolest dad in town....picking up his daughter in the John Deere....lol. Watch out, seems like we were just taking ours to preschool yesterday and now she's a big first grader!
You sir are one of the coolest Farmers I've ever scene on RUclips you care for your family you spend time with your daughter picking corn and getting picked up in a tractor that is so cute that's priceless Memories. I live in Minnesota Minnesota weather is tough some days with the snow and the rain but somehow watching your videos you just keep pushing through thank you for what you do out there feeding us Americans.
HARVEST MODE ENGAGED! I can't wait :)
You do an amazing job on getting your point across with a little humor thrown in. Thank you sir 👍👍✌️
Yes, he's the best I've seen. Young man will do good at anything he undertakes. But we need to help get to 100 k subs by years end. Be sure and tell your friends.
Great video once again. I look forward to watching your harvest videos!
My God! Enjoy your little girl while you can! Mine in 6th grade and just broke my heart by telling me she didn't wanna ride the tractor and go to dairy queen. Enjoy while you can and god bless and bless your harvest!
A mower tip for you.
Lay down beads of weld in the cutting blades before you sharpen them. It will help them stay sharper longer and far more impact resistant. 😃👍🏼
While you are at it mow your ditches too. It really helps with drainage in the spring. And don't worry about the Buffer Bully. He will be gone this fall; replaced by Jeff Johnson. Maybe under his leadership we can even get the buffer zone law repealed.
She’s cute. Can’t wait for my kids to join me in the tractor/combine
I know it's not the same but mowing in Farming Simulator is so satisfying, I do it all the time.
@MN Millennial Farmer
parenting YOU NAILED IT!!
Great video on how and what too for farming. Please thought be careful with that cute little gal or kids around the equipment. So far in the last year have lost two farm friends in accidents from working too many hours and mistakes. Then neighbors 12 year old granddaughter was killed when the 14 year old was driving and they have no respect for speed and what these machines can do with no respect for life. I have worked on the farm for my 73 years and slowed down now to tell fellow farmers to take your time before jumping into something to be safe. Keep up the good work and give that little gal a hug from me.
Nice looking 90-100 day corn. The farmer's daughter knows how to pick a big one. We stopped growing dent corn many years ago. The cattle feeders like high test weight of flint types that have long starch fill period. If our Summer days were like yours, we would be in heaven but could not grow high yield corn and cotton or is that Heaven! We have to spray cotton with regulators to keep down it size and stop new fruiting.
Can’t wait for what’s coming for harvest. Hope yields are good
I'm getting excited!
So am I
I gotta get our old John Deere LTR r standing for rear discharge narrow and suck up the leaves on our lawn so hopefully the leaves won't be to wet because it's been racing the last couple days here in my so
Your daughter is such a hoot! I miss when my 4 y/o was that sweet and innocent. Now she thinks she is a teenager. Lol! As always, great video. 😀
