We're Making Progress On Our Abandoned Farm Project, Though It's A Bit Overwhelming. 

As an old farm boy, I love to see land reclaimed. When you finally get it cleared and figure out where the perimeters are going to be, take your tile plow and go around the perimeter and cut all the tree roots that are running out into the field. Farmer Chris’s corn will do a lot better around the fences.

Good morning to the crowd of faithful followers, have a great day, it is here finally starting to snow😃😃😃😃😃

The dual screen shots with the aerial view is a nice touch.

This has been one of my favorite series of videos, because this is something I would like to do myself.

It has to be a good feeling to be able to do some improvement on you own land, for a change!😊

What a great day of removing the filth and reclaiming the farm for future use again. Nice work also on the drone shots which gives a better perspective on how nice this property lays. Enjoying this series.

The split-screen segments were a much appreciated addition to you editing efforts, Thank You R. Oldr

Watching you tackle this field in a day and a half, I was thinking farmers of a couple hundred years how long it must have taken to clear a field with hand tools and horses Good video

DP big thanks for the help with Capt Kleeman 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

Is it just me. But Aaron is a great friend to have. Mike your real lucky to have him helping.

I bought an old farm that had the trees take it over. 20 years of growth. It’s a daunting task to clear all those trees. It’s a 100 acre property with about 100 trees per acre.

So nice of you to clear the ground for Letsdig18 to build you a pond.

So awesome to see wasted farmland, turned back into usable farmland. You get paid to have your land maintained, and Farmer Chris gets more acreage for crops. You’re the king of win-win deals these days DP! 💪🏻

What a night and day difference Mike your field is looking really nice, can't wait to see these buildings you'll be left with.

You never disappoint Mike, I watched Captain Kleeman and you showed up unexpectedly and jumped in to help him pour that concrete. Don’t let it go to your head Mike but, you are a good friend & a stand up guy.

This one really makes me jealous. It reminds me of what myself and my wife grew up around. We each grew up in very small communities of less than 400 people. We now live with our teenage sons in a small city of 20,000. When we looked for what is now our home, we both thought the convenience of town would be good. 13yrs later we ALL agree that acres in the country would have been FAR better.

Great video, Progress…. I vote for the lake. Many videos, great camping site for Jenna and the kids. Big body of water to kayak, fish and enjoy the serenity of the water for you and the kids for decades to come. I see a unique sense of pride, working on your own property for a change.

A youtube video on "How to clear, in a day, an overgrown/abandoned farm property". Amazing! You guys did a great job, in record time, clearing that property! Best wishes.

WoW, what a transformation you guys have done!! Looks great to see a viable field again! Thank you for bringing us along on your journey Mike!!!

Farmer Chris can come in with a heavy duty land clearing disc after you’re done clearing all the big trees. He can work the field in two directions and chop up all the sticks and roots and have it ready to plant in corn come spring. Before you cleared that field deer could hide in that brush and never be seen. You’ve made a massive improvement to your new farm in a short time.

I love the difference in the land. It looks so much better than all that brush & scrub. You guys have done an awesome job. Thanks for sharing this, Mike.

What nice piece of property under all that scrub ..Mike sure saw that diamond in the rough.

Big transformation from were you started guys, Chris will be proud of you bro. Safe travels. Ken.

Wow you are both doing well. Just wanted to say, I love the split screen and drone footage Mike. it must be a pain having to keep stopping to reposition cameras etc etc when you just want to crack on. I’m loving the extra mile you’re taking for our benefit. 🇬🇧

When MBTS is standing under the swinging shackle on the post puller, might be one of the few tiimes a hard hat might acually be a good idea. Stay safe.

Wow…the transformation in just a short time is awesome. Mike and MBTS was on a mission. Great job Mike and Aaron.

From a field of scrub to field of usefulness 😁 It was only chilly until the fire took a hold 😂 Split screen segments were spot on, that would have taken some organisation 😎

Thanks for helping Captain Kleeman out you truely are good friends.

That Ariel view looked like you were making a Ghillie suit for Bubba Dump.🍻

While watching the machines at work, I could not help but wonder how the early settlers ever managed to clear any land. Had to be some hard labor.

The split screen with the drone and cab camera is an awesome shot! More of that please.

You turned waste land into a beautiful piece of farm land. Some people just don’t know how to make money. Where I live in Pa. You can get up to $200 per acre leasing it out to farmers. It at least pays for the taxes. We have grown up fields like yours everywhere you look. Great job.

You and Aarron sure make a good team whether in the field or the Shop. Great to have someone to work with that you can have fun and laughs with.

That is a field again. I would like to see how Farmer Chris preps it before planting the corn .

I just love seeing a field come back to life after it’s been neglected for quite a while I would love to see farmer Chris plow the field so everyone can see the difference from now to then well done DP AND MBTS

You like sprint cars and you’re sporting the buckees stocking cap makes you a good dude in my book

Thank for all the effort You, MBTS, Farmer Chris, Officer Hoover, and others put into the videos and your support of the community! Got home at midnight from a excellent and fun trip! Now to watch the latest video.

Safety Master Man Behind the Scenes. Needs a hard hat so he won’t get bonked in the head from that swinging chain when pulling out the fence posts.

Great progress on the property! DP, you and Aaron make a great team! 👍 Thank you for sharing!😊

Victory Outdoor Services needs a new pond on his property. Road trip to Wisconsin to show them how it’s done would be cool content!!!

Horses are man’s first machine to be used.have a nice day.

Snicker, you could always hire a herd of goats and their herder to take care of the brush the machines don’t deal with. A lot of the brush you mowed down is stuff that they love… You will want to leave some of the more mature trees alone the road as a wind break or something like that Better check and see if there is no wildlife around the pond before you remove it, if it has fish and other critters then might be best to leave it be

With my landowner experience. I think I would plant in beans for the first year. Then next year get a big offset disk and disk it deep in both directions. Then let the small roots rot. Then it would be easier to apply NH3 next fall.

Looking great 👍, Drone footage is great. Nice job

Not sure who parked that pickup, but they are supervisor material!!! To things you can count on in construction a pickup will be parked in the worst possible spot and eventually it will have a dent from doing that!

The locals must be shocked! What a difference 👏👍

There's something so satisfying about clearing and burning brush 🎉❤❤

I have my 1 year old grandson sitting on my lap watching. He likes the equipment and the music.

Sorry, impatient me, I got all my questions answered at the end of the video. Concerning barbed wire and larger trees . Loved the video. I am from Shreveport, La. And have never missed a video. I always watch dirt perfect, let's dig 18, C&C Equipment and in that order every day.

Love the fall cleanups and burns.

Sure changed the possibilities of land use after all the brush and trees were removed.

How handy is Bubba on this project!!!

Amazing work! The difference in clearing with the excavator vs bulldozer with blade or root rake is no comparison. When 90-95% of everything burns with no large chunks of wood buried in the dirt makes the end results so much better. Plus you don’t have near as big of a stump hole to deal with. You 2 are the best team to watch on RU-vid. Clint and Kevin are in a close 2nd place.

Burning brush is nice when you have the equipment to keep piling it on n high !! Great job guys !! Looking good

Incredible what a difference in a few days......

That right there is the positive result of a thought where you had something and you all made it better for a future planting of food and is a 100% better than paved parking lots that's for damn sure!

What a difference in looks with all that scrub/brush gone!

Soo when's the little skid steer getting a Dp sticker the little guy has earned a spot in the fleet 😂

Soooo Smart! The fence post puller is a great tool,,!! 👍 Keep it Dirt Perfect 😊and Don't ever give up ❤

At 11:00, my buddy came over and we used his violin and my Roland Fantom and we rocked with your music! What a blast we had!! We used Cubase to add the voice sounds in.

LOVE both the split screen and drone shots with in cab audio....creative!

Having him in the picture for scale makes the burn pile look gigantic! 🤣

NOW it is looking like a farm great work .There is a scene at 30:45 where you are plucking trees and shrub and there is a huge bush beside you and the it moved, lol

All I do too pull a post wrap the chain. Snug pull over the hook , works good!

oh boy another great video of the day in the life of DP and his trusty sidekick MBTS. land is shaping up real good, looks alot better cleared.

That's why I'm watching to see the brush cutting

That green wood is throwing off some big time smoke. There’s folks in Indianapolis wondering what’s on fire to the South.

Wooowsers, that pile is a Chris Letsdig18 size pile Mike. You and Arron really did a super job clearing that nasty vine tangled mess up. I hope to see it next year when Farmer Chris has the corn at it's highest growth. Should be one beautiful sight to see.

Love the overhead and split screens.

The split screen with the drone makes a good video

Man, with the right people and the right equipment, major change can happen in short order! Mike, Aaron, I find myself going down to the progress bar at the bottom of the video, hating for the end of a Dirt Perfect video to happen! Lovin' your content, as usual!

Between you and Chris Letsdig18, the two haul trucks ( Bubba Dump and Barney) are the best investments yall have made my friends! Those trucks haul a good load and go just about anywhere you want to go! Plus if yall are doing a pond dam, loaded they definitely help pack the dam! Looks great Mike and Aaron, nice big field!

Before I watch this video, I want to thank you for pitching-in and helping Capt. Kleeman with his buttress pour. You are to be commended !

Always satisfying to be able to see your progress at the end of the day, especially if your property, and from the cam shots I was seeing it looks pretty sweet to me. Throwing that fence in the fire is one good idea. Nice fire, that should burn down nicely. That’s for the update, enjoying the series.

Nice editing and drone shots, Mike. No comment generator required.

after pulling trees all day do you have to put some bengay on your wrist? That fire went up quick once Aaron brought out his hair dryer. The before and after of this is amazing.

This was fun! I really like the drone shots too. Will be fun to watch the series of the transformation of the property. Good job!

Thanks guys

I feel like this would be a great place to build a shop and storage area. Can't forget Aarons pond feature. Put a fountain in the middle of it. Lol curb appeal. In reality, yes it costs money. But you could get the shop out of the house and store all your equipment and materials and accessories in one place just right down the road. Maybe you could sell or rent out the place in derby next to the convenience store to help fund the build. One last build with the whole crew! Featuring Dirt Perfect, Man behind the scenes, Nya Millennial, Jerry, and Captain kleeman. With a little farmer Chris supervising lol. It's perfect really, you have the barn already for materials like pipes, and the open face for the small tractor, skid steers and accessories. All it needs now is a pole barn or enclosed building for the large equipment which could double as a shop. If built close enough to the barns, could still be room for farmer Chris to do something there as well. I think it's time for Dirt Perfects dream shop! Love what you do. Can't wait to see this land develop.

The property marker is in middle of the road. .. we looked for one long time. Finally, a serveyer said it's probably in the road. It was...I think everyone pays taxes to the middle of creek or middle of road 13:02

Lets go hoosiers

Should have a root rake for the dozer, great for this job!!! Watch Let's Dig 18 so you can see how it is done!!!👍😂😂😂

Love the drone shots…as if I was playing with my dinky toys again when I was a kid❤

Mike, I can see your future on this field. It starts with a phonecall from Farmer Chris... " Mike I need this field Tile plough'd today" 😁👍🇮🇪

Back in the old days, in Australia at least, the vegetation was first set on fire and then it was cleared.

Dp what about making the root rake for the skid loader to run it over the field?? 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

WOW what a difference great what one can do with the right equipment, would have loved being there to help always loved that kind of work [ ex farmer dozer operator & truck driver retired in Brisbane Australia

Here in Michigan it's a bit of a chore to fill in a pond as they protect wetlands here.

A project like this is sure easier owning the right equipment compared to hiring it out. Going to be nice to see it all cleaned up. Thanks for sharing.

Put some of your “secret sauce” in a garden sprayer will also help get to get the fire going.

Hi Mike. I am a big fan on youtube. I live in Petersburg ,In.i think its cool you clean a neglected farm. But you have to charge Aron for fishing .Take care and hope to see and the crew soon.

WOW .. WHAT A DIFFERENCE A COUPLE OF DAYS MAKES WITH THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT!

You need to drop the dump bed about halfway, then backup, and it will stack your pile much better.

Looks so much better .. must feel great! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Great video, can't wait to see you clean up the rest and how you get it ready for farmer Chris.

It is really starting to come along .

Wishing you all a happy and successful year for 2024! I'm finding your Abandoned Farm project absolutely fascinating, especially because overgrown tracts of land like that simply don't exist here in the UK. - We're such a small island that every acre of usable land is already under cultivation. BTW: I love your drone cameraman's "view from a mountaintop" shots. So much more interesting than the boring closeups that you see on other channels! 😅

Looking good great field to farm , Chris will be happy great video thanks Mike and Aron

Very impressed with the fine camera work, it seems you guys have stepped it up a notch in the last few video's or I am just getting old and haven't noticed until now. With the Drone footage and all the different angles, it makes the video's so much better for us to watch. I'm no expert by no means, but I have sure noticed a difference here lately. Loving it, keep it up. You Gentlemen make a great team. Keep the video's coming!!

Awesome job, guys!! That farm is looking great.
