My last tree moving job. This has been my side job for a few years now and I have gotten too busy to use often so I've sold it. I figured some of you might find it interesting so here's 5 minutes of tree moving!

I am a 5th generation family farmer from West-Central Minnesota. The recent interest in food, combined with a large amount of 'misinformation' has driven me to start this channel. I hope to be someone people can relate to and trust when they question how their food is grown and raised. I also hope to become a 'smarter' farmer through my experiences with this channel. I strongly believe we must have an open mind and a willingness to learn about others, or we cannot move forward as one. My goal is to build the connection between farmers and consumers by facilitating a collaborative conversation amongst everyone. I do this by sharing my day-to-day farming experiences, my opinions on certain topics, and occasionally visiting other farms and businesses to help better understand other farming and business practices. There is no limit to where this channel may go, so please join me!!

Makes it so easy. When I was 12, I helped my grandpa move a 4 ft. blue spruce from our lake cottage to our church yard. We dug it up by hand, took all day. Happy to say that today, 45 years later, it is doing fine and a beautiful feature on the church lawn.

Hello Zack, just wanted to say that I'm a new subscriber, and despite I have nothing to do with agriculture in my life, I love your channel and I do enjoy your videos a lot, because the way you explain things allows even a noob like me to understand, plus your attitude makes the whole even better and more pleasing to watch. So I just wanted to say keep it up and thank you for your beautiful videos. Greetings from Italy 😊

There is a lot of nursery goes on where I live. Not me I’d rather row crop and have my cattle. But anyway me and some of my friends got together one night and decided we would roll some yards well here we are sneaking around going through a field over and under fences and my friend had a wreck months before and his knee was just in bad shape had a brace on made him walk funny lol and he steps off in a deep ball hole and I thought we was going to have to carry him to the truck. BUT we did get the yard rolled successfully

@regularfarming3037
@regularfarming3037 6 лет назад
Yard rolling is when you go to someone’s house at night and take toilet paper and put it in the trees

So you and Call To Dig are on a first name basis? When you picked and hauled trees over a distance did you tarp them to prevent wind damage to limbs?
@MillennialFarmer
@MillennialFarmer 6 лет назад
Adrian Klaver I never tarped them but I would strap the big ones down some. Most trees seemed to take a lot of wind.

I make 300k in profits every year in San diego county with only 1 employee. A 36" is a perfect size for Dev projects and transfer planting. The secret to success is to have the only spade machine around in a 50 mile radius 😆 Thats a huge machine for production but may be too large for specialized planting. Great Channel !!!!!

@MillennialFarmer

Those large tree spade trucks are pretty cool. I own a landscaping company and when we move or install Large trees I work with a guy that has a large tree farm here and he has 2 spade trucks They are amazing at what they can do years ago first time I saw him work with the spade i was in aw. Thanks for sharing as always Zach I'M sure a lot of viewers have never seen one. Hope all is going and growing well. Have a great day. God Bless!!!

neighbor has a vermeer tree spade trailer and one that fits the front of the skid steer loader. He is a general contractor. when an addition is planned to an area where a good tree is located he moves them. or transplants to other places. I seem to get the apple trees. The arborvitaes survived well . the apple trees are fickle. watered the first growing season. and half the second . they dont seem to last more than 2 full seasons. they just dont green up the second spring. Next tree.
@MillennialFarmer

I'm sure you have heard of Farming Simulator. Ever considered having a map made of your farm? Welkers Farm had theirs done. Not much American support for the sim, being German, and mostly Europeans creating "American" maps that are not even close to resembling American farming.

How would you know if the truck could handle the weight of the tree and what's the typical price range for that type of service. I have an avocado tree I'm trying to move. I'm thinking doing it with a fork lift or bob cat. It's about 22 ft tall and has about a ten inch width. I'm only trying to move it 16 feet from it's current location.

Hey, Zach. I used to run one of those on a Christmas tree farm in upstate New York and I always felt the process would have been much quicker if I had access to a box of those" portable holes" that Wily Coyote used to use to try and catch Road Runner. You know, the ones from Acme... another great vid, Bud.

A year ago last spring I hired a guy from Bagley to move 11 trees at my farm. His tree mover was so big that it was mounted on a tandem International diesel truck. With that machine he was able to move balsam firs as tall as 12-15 feet and an elm that was 20 feet tall; all without any pruning of the roots. It was amazing!

How come you have decided to give that little side line job up. Are you just doing more on the farming side now. Cos I would off thort to keep that going u all ways going to make some money or is not any good now. Over here in UK most farmers have a side line just in case u have a really bad year. So just wondering y u are giving up with that. But wich ever all the best from Andy in UK
@MillennialFarmer
@MillennialFarmer 6 лет назад
Andy wilkinson yeah, I'm busier with the farm now plus RU-vid and 1 other early business venture that could be promising. It was just worth too much to leave it sitting around
@andywilkinson3792
@andywilkinson3792 6 лет назад
I understand now if u got your fingers in another job and ya I can understand y you are selling that cos yes a lot off money sat there doing nothing is not making money and as you said in video you not uesd it for long time. We'll I will keep my fingers crossed for you and everything works out. I'm not farming now. But was on the farm done my back in. So that's y. I asked about you getting out off that nice little side line. We did big mobile toilets for weddings and stuff like that thay were done like bosh hotels but just on wheels. Like I said best of luck with all. And Your family. From Andy
