Jim has been working with horses for most of his life. His father, who grew up in the logging camps was his best mentor. In 1979 Jim began logging with horses and has continued on to present day. He was born and raised in Vermont, then he and his wife Brenda moved to northern New York in 1991 after buying a farm. There they raised a family of 3 children, operated a dairy farm for about ten years and set up a small sawmill business. Now the children are grown and on their own, and the dairy cows have been replaced with a small herd of beef cows. Along with logging, Jim uses the horses to do most of the farm work. Jim enjoys taking the horses to a few pulling competitions each year. Jim's passion is working with horses to encourage them to give their best effort whatever the job might be. He hopes to share some of the insight he has picked up over the years with anyone who might share the same desire to work with horses and enjoy the simple, quiet life they afford.
I'm glad you explained the precise herringbone patterns in the field that Lady and Bree were in. I thought perhaps it was from the tiling. I, too, appreciate the drone shots. Everything looks so clean and orderly. A lovely day. Thanks for your hard work and clarifying explanations 😊❤
send soil samples to Logan Labs (or other labs which do what is called the Albrecht system of soil mineral balancing) for around $25 - they will give you a recommendation on how to amend the soil of your garden, and your plants would not be bothered by pests, particularly such low-level potato bugs or aphids. the amendments don't cost much at all and will possibly be readily available around your area. it bothers that some farmers' garden has pests and disease even if you only once in a while use insecticides. healthy plants are not visited by these plagues...blessings

Great video! Watching those horses work and it looked as though they weren't even pulling hard. That was a lot of weight they were pulling. Awesome and thanks for sharing.
Even though I wasn't born yet, my dad used to farm with horses. I do remember nearly all of his equipment was ground driven which was converted over to be pulled with a tractor. Love watching what I missed out on.
Jim, maybe sometime you could give a quick overview on how the machine works when planting the seeds. Trying to figure out and I’m curious as to how that works. That’s a lot of field to seed.
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Thank you for the link. Still curious as to how the seed and Oates leave the seeder and get put in the ground. I’ll get on google and do a little researching. Sure do miss Buck after watching the video. Thanks again Bob
I enjoy the sounds of the horses hoofs and the equipment the best. There's definitely something peaceful about working with horses, it seems. I love the relationship Jim and Brenda have with the horses. Such trust and patience. Such a special channel! Thanks, and God's blessings to you both!
I really did enjoy this video, Brenda. I really like those drone shots. I think I'm a little OCD because those nice straight lines really are a pleasure to see.
Looked forward to your video today. There are so many horrible things happening all around the world. I commend you both for how you interact with one another. May God continue to bless you and your audiance
