The best thing I ever did was build a roof over our chute and tub. Took me years to convince my Dad. But once it was done? The words, “we should have done this a lot sooner.” Were music to my ears. Goin through song of the day withdrawals Brian,,,,
If you have not, check out Ivers. They don’t put out as much but regularly and within a week. Southern Illinois eastern Indiana family more than a few acres. Good people!
Having the ability to order almost anything on line and delivered to your doorstep is just a game changer for these farmers really helps them stay moving and working continuously. Really cool video pleasure to watch ya'lls day to day operations
Oh, it’s good to be able to catch up on chores and projects that need to be done and don’t have to rush through them. I will say one thing Cole you working with your dad is a good thing. Makes me remember the times when I was able to work with my dad on projects. he lives too far away from me now but when I was up there recently, we got to work together and he’s helped me with a project that I’ve doing at my place now. I send him videos so that he can be a part of it always hold that dear to my heart. Hope you do too to your dad, peace to you buddy
Always like the improvement videos for some reason! And Brian made a noise at about a 1/3 other the way through the video that reminded me of something from my youth, I'll be darned if I can remember what it was associated with but, it made me have a good chuckle! Sucks when your memories start to go hey, that's just part of life as you get older. I always look forward to the next video!
I always appreciate your vlogs, thank you for taking us along! My Dad raised Black Angus & Herefords (nothing to your quantity)! Your Dad brings back sweet memories of my Dad. Thanks, Cole & and Brian, for all you do! We buy our freezer beef from a local rancher here in West Central Indiana.
Looks pretty good at the feed bunk. It's nice to clean off the weeds on a farm, I've been doing that myself, looking good. Good luck on the hay. Thanks and have a great day!
Cole nice video. So glad you actually take your trucks in to be inspected, wish all truck owners were as responsible as you and Brian!! Be safe out there, wear sun screen especially on your ears, took care of people who lost a ear due to skin cancer from too much sun!!
Ahh...more premium gateage! (Feel free to use that phrase...) I love watching the daily odds and ends as much as the planting and harvesting. Property management is important! (Tractor hot dog holders too!) I like the not-automagical cement mixer bucket doodab thingy...never seen one before. Looks easier than using a wheelbarrow. Also, nice trick using the ute tires to secure your propane and propane accessories. Hank Hill and Buck Strickland would be proud, I'll tell you whut.
Thanks for another great video Cole and Brian. It was interesting and enjoyable to watch for sure. You two are masters at building gates and fencing. You have updated your bunk system to make it look pretty darn nice. Good work you two. Like the way you patched that hole in the one bunker. Nice fix on that. Lots of small projects getting done since the fields are so wet. Sonny is really getting bigger all the time. The two dogs play good together. That time of the year to spray for things that bite you. Nice you have a sprayer for the farm yard. Guess about it for now. You both take care and be safe. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
A friend used to say, " If the cows complain, I'll do this the way they want me to". Thanks for the cooperative work effort. It makes farming look 'easy' when two people work together.
I almost feel guilty watching awesome folks working so hard, but seeing the results of your labor more than makes up for that :) Really nice. Thanks for the video!
You guys are pretty crafty with the concrete forms. I feel like your state should do annual inspections of Brian’s T-shirts, make sure they are fit for another year
I have an Elle but mine is black and white and named Allie.My girlfriend started watching because it is interesting to see how to dogs do almost everything the same way around a farm.
Ugh, mosquitos, I started itching as soon as you mentioned it! I keep mentioning the Farmstead, but well, that's where the memories come from. We haven't been for a few years because Mom had to have a heart valve replaced & she'll be 93 on Sunday. We could only stay for 10 days because we all had to get back to California. So, 10 days was (that didn't count the travel days to/from to drive) just enough time to build up a tolerance to the bites & have to leave. And the west side of the house was THE WORST for skeeters, so I'd save that side to weed last. I labeled it Mosquito Lane. Uff da!
Cole When changing blades on your cutter, try tapping a plastic felling wedge under the nut to hold it in place I find it works better than a screwdriver, wrench , or pry bar Love your channel🤠
I have questions to ask of this fascinating farm family. Cole you do a wonderful job with the details of farm life..How many brothers do you have and names? Do any of your siblings farm ? Does Jeff have kids and if so how many? Thanks for always doing a great job with your camera.
Brian, I watched the way you pushed that drill bit through the post and the way Cole pushes it. Y'all need to feed that boy better and get another 125lbs on him so he will have some butt behind him like we do. 😅😅
Nice improvements but it's more about the comraderie between Father and Son . Don't forget to cherish those moments during the good times and bad. I have come to feel that I sometimes miss being yelled at just as much as getting a pat on the back. In both cases at least there was communication and a sense of caring. Those rascally puppies.
Well done Sonne Farms we from East Gippsland Vic Australia really enjoy your show. It's great to see a father & son team working together, proving it is possible. Where we are East Gippsland is Dairy Farming very hard to get our to work on the land hence we import labour from Philippines. Enjoy your show look forward to it each week.
I just about chucked my ear buds across the room when Cole was smoothing out the concrete😂 hoooly, I might have had the volume up a little too high 😂 Thanks for another great video guys, you’re hammering right through the improvements👍🏻
