Zach Johnson, the “Millennial Farmer” is a 5th-generation farmer who’s spent his life growing, working, and learning on his family’s farm. His wit and dry sense of humor appeal to children and adults alike. A product of the millennial generation, his appreciation of new technology blends with his old-fashioned work ethic, and he offers a unique ability to deliver his message in a way that resonates with lifelong farmers as well as those with no knowledge of agriculture. With growing consumer awareness about where their food comes from, Zach has identified the need for an independent voice from the front lines of agriculture. Zach actively promotes agriculture by sharing his day-to-day experiences in the agriculture world while providing farmer-to-farmer education to help facilitate a collaborative conversation between farmers and the public.

Nate: "Alright, I'll wait here, I won't go anywhere!" HAHAHA Solid dad humor, I can see where Zach gets it

[@Roboticus_Prime_RC]

It had me rolling 😂

[@markmoran8513]

Xwhere is jim

[@TermIANator]

lmao

[@brentstallman6167]

I rewound Onyx spilling the corn 20 times. The look on his face and the panic of trying to stop it while looking at you waiting for you to react. Then you grabbing the bucket and knocking the last few out and dumping them on the ground had me rolling! LMAO!!😂

[@djwheels66]

When you were petting the cat and saying “Shucka Shucka Shucka Shucka”…. I seriously believed until that moment that I was the only person in the world who said that!!!! 😂😂😂😂

[@smockfarmer]

The kid is a natural. He’ll take over the whole farm in no time

[@jenniferwarren655]

My Dad thinks I can do thathat

[@jenniferwarren655]

My Dad thinks that I can do that

[@vIonIc_dk]

DANG.... I just ROTFL when Onyx realized he f.up and you just yeah what ever, and take the collector, empty the rest out and just dump it on the floor 😂🤣

[@mikesipple2188]

Good to see Onyx getting more hands-on with the equipment now.

[@mathbrown9099]

Onyx is my kinda kid! “Sorry, dad.”

[@lyleswavel320]

Glad to see your dad is getting around good, he didn't hesitate unhooking grain hopper bottom

[@Delbert127]

Love your Dad I won't go anywhere

[@chuckfinley4757]

*well

[@dynamo2169]

Really cool to see you and your boy working together. Reminds me of me and my dad when I was a kid. Certainly cherish those memories I had with him!

[@game5plays]

Im still kinda impressed every time i see your content. You guys are running with equipment 4 times our size, and still, you manage to make it relatable! Good job!

[@arthenry498]

WOW, that planter seems to be working unbelievably well!! Can't remember one switching over and taking off that easily!! I did not even hear a finger snap!! I really love seeing Onyx doing so much. Way to go man!! Proud of ya Onyx!! Good man! (Kudos to his parents too) This was pretty much a feel good video. Seems strange when so little goes wrong. I like it. Thanks Zack. (thanks to Becky for making it look so good)

[@larrydavidson3402]

So happy for you that the planter is operating so well after the update.

[@lyleswavel320]

I remember earning my keep as a farmers boy from 77 to 87, it taught me a lot of good mechanical skills I still rely on

[@joebeach7759]

It's all about work ethic. I learned mine around the same time you did by cutting lawns all over the neighborhood. Then everything rolled into adulthood, and I'm just getting ready to retire now and enjoy the years I have left.

[@CaryGuyer]

Very impressed Onyx, you are becoming a young man ahead of your time 👍. You are so lucky to have a dad that is teaching you the skills to be successful in life and what really shines with you is the fact that you are so attentive and take care in what you learn. Good job Zach.

[@ni1469]

I’d recommend pouring concrete from the ground to the walls around the whole building to keep critters from digging under and eating your pretty new sensors

[@scottgrimm7083]

Did i Hear the word Impatient once or twice..lol Its go time. Love it

[@steveddavis]

Great work on the seeder by Onyx 👊 Good to see a confident and capable next generation.

[@BPFLY417]

The winter went by quick , yeah

[@jimday3112]

It's not see a young farm boy working and learning the different aspects of farming. Extra special that it's 3 generations working together.

[@davidl.miller8168]

Great video, Good to have the corn in the ground and moving on to beans. Looking forward to the new spray trailer as well as the new sprayer. Onyx is turning into a very capable farm hand. Hopefully that doesn't push Jim off the farm. I am still hoping for a video of how your Dad and Jim got together as a working relationship. The story of Jim if you will. Keep up the great work and stay safe. God Bless

[@ArizVern]

RETIRED, 78, FREEDOM, USAF, VFW. GREAT SEEING FATHER SON WORKING TOGETHER.

[@belfast479]

Zack, than young man, Onyx, sure is something to be proud of. Congrats to you and Becky for being such a great American family. Love to all from Cape Cod.

[@markbranch9804]

Haven’t seen Jim. Hope everything is well with him

[@jberg8159]

Onyx’ demeanor reminds me of his Grandpa.

[@alanellis9158]

Havent seen Jim for a while,hope hes ok

[@edrouse9578]

Jim, Jim, Jim. Start the chant.

[@dansrockinvids]

I was wondering the same thing, came to the comments to see if there’s any comments about where he’s been

[@rnedisc]

In a comment a while back they said he had a small surgery for something and was taking some time off to properly recover.

[@kennysouthwel4127]

You guys are great and a joy to watch. Go American Farmer!!

[@thomasleonard1846]

You guys do so well on the farm, especially with the handicap of green equipment!

[@MeatlessSausage]

I'm here for the movie lines Stop looking at me Swans! Iykyk

[@adambecker5300]

We made a “tray” out of some sheet metal and angle iron for the set and seed to put in the peg of the floor Jack and man it worked well!

[@Nick-vx3uq]

You're a hell of a dad to your kids! The relationship you have with Onyx, and the way you turn a young boy into a man is something to see! Cheers from the crowded Twin Cities!

[@denisedenomme361]

Nice to see father and son working together. Onyx is an unusual name isn’t it? Never heard of it until I started watching the millennial farmer’s videos. Love the name.👍❤️🇨🇦

[@thebeastupdate]

Great movie 🎥

[@danny88dh]

I'm glad to see everything going so smoothly this year Zach I'm thinking this will be a good year for you guys as long as harvest goes just as smooth. I like it when your not all stressed out trying to plant it makes for way better videos

[@adamsherm29]

I broke my toe doing exactly what you did today. Kicking a wooden block under some landing gear. Lol. I must admit......feels amazing.

[@johnroberts2905]

All hail catdawg. Clever kitty that one. 😆

[@rickshipley7872]

Becky! I miss the outtakes!

[@EstOptimusNobis]

For the big shed, talk to the concrete guys and see if "soil cement" is an option, considerably cheaper than a concrete slab. Another idea is to dry mix lime and sand, then mix this with the top layer of soil in the shed, as the lime absorbs the water in the soil it hardens. Again, considerably cheaper than a concrete slab. Talk to the local road building contractors, they will have useful advice on both of these methods.

[@Rebar77_real]

Catdog's been teaching a night class? Loved that, "I'll stay right here, won't go anywhere!" xD

[@edsecorr7812]

Lot of work your doing great keep up the great work love your videos thank you

Where has Jim been this planting season???

[@dankreoger611]

Dirt, Grain and Steel used those depth blocks too. The down force gremlins went over to the Cornstars

sometimes you can't teach an old dog new tricks. but you are making difference

[@stevendufresne9994]

Great Video Thanks Zach!!👍👍

[@ryzok113]

I’ve been watching every video for the past month and I can’t get enough! Is there any chance we could get longer videos? I know it’s a lot more work but I think everyone would enjoy it!

[@snickrologen]

Great to see that most stuff is working properly this year! 😊

[@jordanroberts1519]

7:58....You're dad has THE DRYEST sense of humor I've ever heard.

I was the same age as Onyx when my dad bought me a new XR 80 Honda. I rode that bike every where on the farm.I'm 56 now .Man does time fly.

[@thomasvogelgesang667]

The sarcasm in the video was great, all three generations. Great video.

[@Darkrif1957]

A good trick for drivin in soft ground is to drop the air out of the air bags :)

[@westonstruiksma6334]

You going to be at the range on the 20 of June

[@gregoryschmitz2131]

Well the kids get strapped in but he now needs the optional differential lock to get full traction. I had same issue with a dump truck, flat ground grassy, mud, slime, could not move and could not throw anything under the wheels to get traction. My boss just shook his head but nothing you can do (no gravel near by). Of course on a gravel area I fell into a hole and they just shook their head as well.

[@chogondar]

Great American family. Loved every bit of the video . Wish you all the best.

[@MrMagnat007]

Zac you have gotta be proud of Onyx. I mean he helps out on the farm... never backs down from any Tractor work and knows his own limits.. Keep up the amazing work all of you.

[@billwestphal1421]

Three generations out working ground must make one happy. The young man is doing more in a day than most do in a week.

[@tractor869]

You have a tail light out on that semi

[@randyphenicie4322]

Where is Jim

[@cdarting91]

So even tractors have pop up’s!

[@thegrahamericandream531]

We love your GS ❤ makes us miss ours but will have another one day, that breed is one of a kind & only GS owners get it 😊. My husband & I were just talking about you yesterday, & drooling over you’re equipment 😂. He said he enjoyed chatting with you a couple months back. ..enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.

[@johnking8679]

I am continually amazed at how Zach handles all the ups and downs of what he does. You are an absolute workaholic when it comes to getting the job done. Your knowledge of your farming techniques is truly mind-blowing !! You never seem to panic at ANYTHING !! Haven't seen your wife bring you those tasty snacks you so enjoy..? Onyx is an amazing young man and is certainly worth his weight in gold !! I think you get the message: I just LOVE your channel !! Blessings to y'all.

[@marvinpack8453]

I am going to thank you for you having your dad with you and I remember when I worked with my dad and I am really happy for you to have that priviledge to work with your dad

[@koryleague8833]

Its so awesome seeing "6" doing more and more every year

[@BRPFan]

Did you get one of those DASH spray trailers from PhiBer Manufacturing from Crystal City, Manitoba, Canada 🇨🇦 ? If so your going to love it! They are made 35 minutes West of us.

[@johncalander2092]

Is it just me or is Onyx hitting a growth spurt? Great to see him taking on more things.

Gotta love them sticky valves 😂😂. As a driver in the Northeast, you can hook em from that weird angle, but no sense pushing your luck if you dont have too.

[@elis51501]

You should ask Jim to get the new spray trailer, save you time and you could sell your old one sooner??

[@scottrose7728]

Is it me or did Onyx go from learning how to drive the grain cart to being the actual "Millennial Farmer" overnight?

[@floydferguson5366]

Great video!

[@markalan1501]

GSD's shed twice a year and just prior to a heat cycle. There is a tool called a FERMINATOR. If your going to own a shepherd, you have to maintain their coat.

[@HomerJ1964]

I’m with Onyx. Growing up on our farm in Iowa in the early 70’s, I didn’t walk anywhere. I either rode my bike or my Tractor Supply mini bike. Walking is for suckers.

[@shawnmiller4781]

I about had a bowel movement when you mentioned the cost of concrete. May I suggest maybe pavers instead? Do 20-30 feet a pop over several years to spread the cost out and eventually you will have a paver floor all the way to the end. We see a lot of shops and hangars that have paver floors in bush Alaska. They don’t require too much equipment or skilled labor to install like concrete does and often it is cheaper to mail the pavers to a remote site rather then to barge concrete in.

[@shawnmiller4781]

And thinking about it you could put Onyx on it if we wants to go out for football. Moving pavers would be a great workout. Remember Arnold worked as a bricklayer when he first moved to the US

[@R3dn3ck747]

Thank you very much for another great video Johnsons😊

One idea that works pretty good for dropping trailers is old disc blades instead of boards You're welcome
