All respect to your Dad, when he said, "That is all I ever wanted to do was Farm my whole life and now I'm 60 years old it looks like I might be able to." It made me smile and tear up a little, I am so grateful to those who work so hard to feed us. Thank you!

I've watched these a few times now. And have to say two things. Your dad is awesome he's clearly put huge amounts of work and hours into the farm. And second don't be shy do more of these kind of videos. I love history like this. I could listen for hours of my granddad tell me the history of our family and farm. And I would love to go back and pick his brain even more. So the more you can document like this. I'm sure you kids will love it later on.

Hi Zack I did a video interview with my father seven years ago when he was 92 years old (he died 3 years later). I have been so pleased that I made the time to do it as there was so much to talk about. He was in Dunkirk at the start of the Second World War and had a few injuries (little finger on left hand shot off etc., etc.), also many tales about his exploits during that time. I wish I had recorded a second one as there was so much left unexplored. You will treasure these recordings and they will go into your family archives for the future generations to see. Well done it was a great idea. Regards Ivan UK

As a 61 year old, soon to be retired, it would be fun to work asking side for harvesting, or planting. Just to drive a tractor, or combine. You all might think it mundane, but to us city dwelling folks that would all be something new. As a young, 12-14 year old military brat, when Dad was stationed at the old Chanute AFB, I'd watch in awe as the farmers would work the farms right behind our on-base house. I'd watch as they'd harvest corn in October-November even in the middle of the night. I'd watch as they'd plant beans the next year in order to rotate crops. One thing we'd do, as brats, even real brats, we'd make trails in the corn rows, which for dinner reason would spell words. Bad words. We'd always deny it, of course, but those who saw the words knew better. Great job with the videos.

I enjoy listening to our "old timers" so much and I miss my personal "old timers" dearly. My grandfather got his start by bootlegging rough rice during WWII before he went to war. He made enough money hauling rice in a dump truck at night to start a dairy operation when he returned from Germany. Very cool to hear your families story and please pass on my appreciation to your father for taking the time to share it with all of us! If you are ever in South Louisiana I would love to show you around rice country down here!

1972 was when I went into the service. If I remember correctly it was the late 80's early 90's when we were starting to hear a lot of farms were being sold to Russia. They would hire the Amish to come in and care for it in the spring they would send in tractors and planters and do the planting and then in the fall bring in the Combines and harvest. Really enjoyed listening to your family history. It is great you are doing this, I am planning on doing something of the same thing for my grandkids seems so few anymore know little of nothing or care nothing about the family history. Thank you it was very nice remembering those days.

Great interview with your dad. I’m older than your dad so I remember those times in the seventies and eighties and how tough they were for everyone. Keep up the good work ethic that your father started and I think you will always succeed. You’re one lucky young man to get to work side by side with your dad. That’s worth a million bucks right there.

@roberthennel 5 лет назад

Hearing your dad talk with such ease about all the rough and tough years is reassuring for anyone who starts their own business in any field whatsoever, not only farming. The current startup trend kind of pushed the trend from being proud of any enterprise that bears your family name, but I guess there still are people (including me), who prefer staying with their business in good times and bad.

@larrystolzman3231 4 года назад

Listening to this and the previous video brought back some interesting memories. Farming is a risky business. Weather, finances, health, politics and no control over prices scare most farmers. My parents were no different. They borrowed money to buy the farm and came home from the closing on December 7, 1941 to find the world at war. Scary, but they believed in "God We Trust". He never let them down. I'd love it if more people under stood this and reacted the same way. God Bless!

So I went a different direction but never let go of the dream. I’m now 73 and successfully retired. Stumbled across your channel a couple of weeks ago and am loving it.

There’s always something to be said about History & one’s roots. You do an outstanding job of representing the farming culture, all the while bringing an entertaining nature to it. Kudo’s to you!

I'm 7-months older than your dad and was raised on a cattle/horse farm in upstate NY. I recognized all of the equipment references and vividly remember driving a 1971 GMC pickup full of hay bales out into the pasture during the winter months to feed the cattle. At the time, we had a Farmall M and a John Deere 2020 with a front end loader..seems like yesterday but I just revisited that farm a couple of weeks ago and I'm proud to say it's still a farm and hasn't succumbed to developers..

@barrettgpeck 5 лет назад

As I see it, and this is from a 20 yard view, and also my own experience. You never buy new on big depreciating assets, otherwise you are going to take it in the shorts. Farm implements by and large are depreciating assets, as well as automobiles or trucks. Unless you plan on running it until it burns to the ground, you never buy new or the extended warranty.

Loved to hear about the history. Your dad and his grandpa made some smart decisions on getting through the 80’s. I grew up during that time and my parents were able to keep the farm. It took my dad going on the road to work construction and leaving a wife a 12 year old son and a 22 year old son to run the farm. My oldest brother had a full time job so I was left to handle a lot around the farm during the day. Yes I was the 12 year old going out day to day doing a lot of field work. The farm is still in the family about an hr from you. Love the videos keep it up.

I enjoyed your family history and your lil raccoon story lol In 1978 I moved out of the house at 17. Didnt get along with my Dad and thought I knew better. I lived in Milwaukee for 17 yrs, then to Port Washington in a farmhouse with 3 other guys. I was the only one the farmer hired and I gagged every morning on that dairy farm at 5am milking cows. The manure !!! The farmer would laugh and say, "city boy ainta gonna make it" But I did as my dream was to drive that brand new IH 986 tractor. (with 8track) I obviously started out on the D17 , then the backho etc. Then when I did start plowing etc 986 was 2nd to our new articulating tractor, very kool. First time back home I hugged my Dad ever since until an hour after he died at 90. Great seeing you and your Dad work together. Great memories made. sorry to ramble on

Your great grandfather Johnson was a very smart and patient man by all accounts. He had a lot of foresight not to burden your father with debt early on. A case of unselfishly making choices for the good of the generations to come. I think that’s one of the greatest lessons here. It seems to me he and his wife sacrificed a lot and waited many years for his grandson to come of age with no guarantee he would even come home to farm.

Good talk. I grew up on a farm in northern Ohio, after graduating high school in the late 70's, my life choices took me away from farming. I have cousins that are still keeping the farming legacy alive in our family. We spent 11 years in Lakeville, MN with a large dairy, beef, hog and grain farming family in our back yard. Loved the smell of the freshly turned dirt in the spring and watching the yearly farm cycle, the fall harvest, literally in our back yard. Keep the videos coming, incredible insight into the farm life.
