that was straight up amazing! Imagine the collective knowledge and experiences the family went through in 300 years! It makes me think that as society grew up around the farm, it made it harder to survive, but also made it easier in that the markets are now closer again and supported locally. I wonder what the next 300 years will be like for them. Great video, thank you!
@@TozziWelding I’m in central Mass and all the fam land is being sold and turning into houses it’s a sad thing lucky my farm has pulled through but I lost 50 acres this summer to solar development witch is another thing putting farmers out of business.
@@Zed827 I live in Marlborough now, it is painful to see what has happening to what was once agriculture land. Up the street from my house off of rt 20 was pasture land is gonna be condos, disgusting.
Nice video. I like your explanation of everything. Really neat to see a farm that old. Most of the farms here are 65 years old or less. That is an impressive amount of tractors for the acres. Also I was interested to see that rears pak blast. That came from Oregon clear on the other coast of the USA. We have a lot of those and bigger ones for the orchards also working for a caseih dealer helps. Just got a history of IH and caseIH book it says there were 2146 3388 made and about 6000 3588’s. So relatively rare tractors.
That was a great video!!!! I bet you could go round that place ten times and still not see everything. Great farm great stuff! Thanks to both of you for the show!!
I live 12 miles south of La Porte were that Rumley oil pull was made my dad's grew up and farmed in La porte ! I realize everything on the eastcoast is old but Laporte was settled in 1832 that's old for the midwest tons of history there !
Great video. It was neat to see all the machinery that's accumulated on the farm within the 300 years. At the time of me watching this, 1.3K likes...............IF I heard right 1K likes = plowing video with the old girl. I'll anxiously await that video!
really digging the Oil Pull, we have a 1918 14-28. Cant wait to see her plow... there is nothing like it when they work... the sound is absolutely beautiful
Dad was an excavator and I worked in the cherry orchards as a kid. I still love looking at heavy equipment. Hide and seek was played at a whole other level with heavy equipment involved. Dad and his friend won by climbing to the top of the crane boom with a six pack.
Well I liked this video before the plowing with oil puller teaser lol . I’m a long ways away in central NY family farm 1843. But I can personally vouch for Springbrook farms vegetables and bakery . Great Stuff !!! Plan on buying things you need and don’t need like way to much pie and breads lol My. Wife’s family was in Townsend , Bolton and Belmont .
Thanks Chris for this video. Same family 300 years. Makes me emotional even. Jeez. And their other double duty tractor with a freshly blown motor. I see no clean shop area to rebuild a motor. So may be the end of the 766. Did you know why they get little use of the big tractor in the back? He said jts a shame, which to me means someone never had enough sons to complete this place.
Sounds crazy but if you have trouble getting your suction cup mounts to hold get the pad wet, a little spit works great lol. Just like with a lot of things a little lube makes it better :)
back in the 60s gehl made an attachment that goes on the end of the auger to fill 50 lb bags it was a tube that at the bottom had 2 sides and a switch that flipped between the sides
I just learned from talking with my Brother Will Rogers that he knows you and you May have stopped at his Dairy farm in Warren.He had nothing but good comments about you.what a small world.
They took a 40 foot container chassis and made it into a log trailer. My tanker semi is a 20 foot container chassis with a straight truck tank on it as well
That is a nice Ford the only thing wrong with that is it is a 7710 2 is in Roman numerals. And the are ok. But it is big in Europe. We have one that runs are manure spreader.
I have alot of friends who bought fire trucks for a few thousand. Use them for tankers usually. The caboose was free I do believe and is going to take alot of skilled labor to make it anything cool again. But the uncle has that type of skill
@@DuffyAg I bought an old firetruck from my hometown for short money, gonna be my next service truck. How much is it gonna cost me to make a 1968 International truck an everyday runner again... I must be rich
Are Massey Ferguson's not as good as they used to be, or are they not as good up north? You need to have your friend start a youtube channel I could go back and forth between you two considering they're two different kinds of farms.
