Hey Andrew, it's time for another video interview with your dad.😁 This time, let's talk about the farm when he was younger. How has he changed things since he took over? And is there anything you would change when you boys take over? Callie is getting so grown up already, such a cutie pie💜

I appreciated the clear explanation of how precision agriculture technology works. Very helpful

Veggie boys and stable life exemplify the American way!! Hats off to these guys and girls

@thereissomecoolstuff Месяц назад

Big time. Minnesota is the classic. Minneapolis is terrible and declining fast. The farms and country are full of families like this one. Godbless our farmers.

@Rosiewangui Месяц назад

I agree.

@brandonbragg2041 Месяц назад

I'm sure you know, but for others that may not know. To tell if a watermelon is ready to be picked in the field. There is a curly "tendril" on the vine where the watermelon stem is attached. If it is green, the watermelon is still growing. If it is completely dry, brownish, it is ready to be picked. I grew up in east Texas and picked watermelon for local farmers. Much bigger melons back then.

@JamesWestAZ Месяц назад

Love the fun fact about Petey. Never thought about him being unable to do the clutch without having to stand up and step on it. But yeah I can see it. He is a smaller guy.

@lorenstribling6096 Месяц назад

Exactly how my brother learned to drive our truck on our farm. Stand on the pedals while steering.

Callie in her hat is just precious!

Poor Peter ! You don’t weigh enough,but you are so special helping wherever you’re needed! Helping the veggie boys helping Joel its great!

I’d buy a bucket full of the damaged stuff for my chickens as long as it is a discounted price. My chickens love that stuff

Been with you from the beginning, my favorite channel. Your family is the best.❤❤❤❤

@elainewood3987 Месяц назад

We are from Georgia and used to have a problem with birds pecking the tomatoes til someone told me they are after the water, not the tomatoes. Just do an experiment and put out a couple flat trays of water in the watermelon patch. It worked for us. They drank the water and left the tomatoes alone.

@genehasenbuhler2594 Месяц назад

That would attract other animals like skunk and deer and bears! And that would devastate the crops!

@shawnmcpeak6184 Месяц назад

Glad to see the bears and skunks are giving you a break.

As a long time viewer and subscriber, it is amazing to see you walking through the sweet corn and to think it wasn't that long ago those little corn plants were popping up from the soil and into their little artificial greenhouses. To see those beautiful corn stalks so tall above the remnants of the plastic mulch is nothing short of miraculous. --- Keith

@ilenesatchell5445 Месяц назад

When you and your brothers were young, did your dad raise vegetables on the same number of acres? Who worked in the fields back then?

@theveggieboys Месяц назад

We raise more now

Pulled my cucumber plants out today. 2 full size in a week out of 6 vines. They are done and I want to plant some beans 😊

@annalovesnz Месяц назад

I love all your videos and updates about the farm! Lots of love all the way from New Zealand. ❤

@lauracarpenter5283 Месяц назад

Hey, Andrew! Watching Callie with her ear of corn gave me an idea. How about Veggie Girl or Veggie Kids? Watching her excitedly eating veggies with that cute little grin would be an influence for good in our society. Maybe you could start off small with cameos each week, and as she gets older and more vocal she could branch off. ❤

@lorenstribling6096 Месяц назад

Your Dad is a wealth of knowledge and information...whether you need it or not! 😅

@patriciacunningham6839 Месяц назад

I can just see the twins running around in the fields with Callie in a few yrs 😁 maybe a few cousins as well 😲

@danrussell9207 Месяц назад

Leaving them lay on the ground is essentially just composting in place!

@richardconnelly934 Месяц назад

Pioneer Valley MA (CT river valley) picked 1000's of cukes for Oxford Pickle. They use old trucks with platforms on rear and both sides - the pickers, on their stomachs, threw the cukes over their heads into the center.

I love it when your hens check out the camera

@joesmith7427 Месяц назад

Ive picked many of veggies in a pile after the pickers had been there. It was free to me and i gave it to people who couldnt afford 1st quality veggies. It was super PR for the farmer!! Any herbs, fennel pollen brings real big $$.

@laurenbingenheimer3913 Месяц назад

So I fight the birds each year, from them eating my newly planted seeds to my fruit. What has worked very well for me is flash tape. I hang it on poles and wrap it around my plants. I didn't have to replant anything, and my harvest has been so nice.

@scottiewhite8762 Месяц назад

Please tell Pete, I’m a 40 yr master plumber, had to put a bag of concrete on seat of the skid steer so I could fill my ditches. I just saw the superintendent get off it and couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t crank for me….

@Jaynes-Path Месяц назад

I know how Pete feels. I get the same problem from my Car. I finally had the dam alarm for that shut off.

You have a good dad he loves his boys and your mother to!!

@thomasfladebo872 Месяц назад

Hey why not get a drone with enough range and some lights to take a flight through the fields at night? Might discourage a few critters and you might not have to leave the house depending on distance. Perhaps someone in family lives close enough to the fields to run it through the fields once in a while or by the trees.

Your broccoli looks great! In my zone 7B broccoli was done a month ago, from heat and harlequin bugs. May try again in August.

@Tonetwisters Месяц назад

Eighty degrees. Ahh. That sounds glorious. How are the pumpkins coming?

@1stbadger700 Месяц назад

Paint some of those big rocks green before the melons even come on and when the birds peck they won’t get anything so when the melons DO come on they won’t bother. Works on strawberries too.

@D4ni3773 Месяц назад

Thanks for sharing! Great video!

@AZHITW Месяц назад

Birds are picky eaters if I put out a less than sugar sweet orange, they will refuse to eat it, I guess the birds are letting you know your melons are SUPER good.

@OldManAsh73 Месяц назад

If you go walk about in the corn Andrew you might find your twin brother 🤣👍

@sirtedricwalker2979 Месяц назад

Dang, that corn looks sooooo good!! :D

@petermartijnheite-bauwens1632 25 дней назад

Hey Andrew and Crew, maybe you can grow Melons in tunnel tents but the right size to walk through. Not the plastic tunnels because they get to hot in the sunshine. Those but made of fine fabric are the best i guess. I also know that the white powder on the Nightshade family can be cured with calcium..... Its just a tip and maybe i said something stupid now but i saw a lot farmers/gardeners using calcium to get rid of the powder. Thanks for sharing!!!

@lindawoody8501 Месяц назад

So great! Glad you have been harvesting delicious beautiful sweet corn. Glad to you were able to get a lot of nice cukes, and broccoli. All good. Very nice too you have loyal customers both at the farm shop and your commercial clients.

@bethsands7665 Месяц назад

Any advice on harvesting cucumbers or any other tis-bits that you have are little nuggets of gold that help us all shine as gardeners. The more you say, the better . Maybe the chickens would profit from some of the cucumber casualties. Surely, the soil will reclaim the plant and vegetable casualties. All in all, you get a boat-load of vegetables from every crop. Your family business is sooo professional year after year and keep getting bigger and better in the produce production and gleaning knowledge to be ahead of the game. Wowza, your corn harvesting skills are amazing !!

@mark-fb1dm Месяц назад

I really miss good corn. Back in PA they grew 3 strains of supersweet corn so sweet it tasted like a good ripe cantaloupe right off the stalk. Now in Arizone we get one step away from animal corn

@gregwilson3371 Месяц назад

Joel knows how to get out of a corn field. O wait didn't he got lost in one for like 2 weeks a few years back?

@karenearly1589 Месяц назад

Andrew, your comment about Petey’s weight and you not being able to relate -made me lol…too funny! 😂

@johnzink3309 Месяц назад

@susanfitchben7213 Месяц назад

Our corn crop was awesome this year considering the corn was planted in a raised bed! Each ear was perfect and insect free!!

@beckyp9700 Месяц назад

I agree with the others, it is time for an interview with Bryan about how things were when he was young vs now since he took over the farm. How many acres were farmed then vs now? As well as who is taking over when Bryan retires? All three of you? Or just one? And anything else he wants to share about the farm ....past or present. Please? See you in the next one.

@kandacenoelle5265 Месяц назад

Can't stand corn, except for raw sweet corn. Grampa used to pick it and we used it for bait.

@wbsouthton Месяц назад

First time I’ve watched, love it, by the way we have issues with coyotes in CT, they know the night before it’s ready to pick and show up and have a party.😮

@brianeisenga882 Месяц назад

In my opinion, sweet corn is best eaten within a half hour of picking. Seems to lose some of its sweet flavors after that. I haven't done any yet. Another week or so.
