Equipment tour-100th Video!

Trinity Dairy's official 100th video. People have been asking for a video with an equipment tour. We go over our machinery museum with the Case 660 combine, the Farmalls, the International tractors, the Case tractors, choppers, silo blowers, new idea corn picker, round balers, and much more. It might not be shiny, but it all works! We also answer viewers most frequently asked questions about the farm. Thank you to our viewers for helping our channel grow!

[@larrymeyers6913]

New subscriber here and watched about 30 videos so far. Im not a farmer but its one of my interests and enjoy watching and learning from your videos brbit farming or equipment repair. It looks like you have a great family and enjoy watching how the kids chip in and help and they know alot about farming and will he hard working Adults just like their parents.

[@philipingram1667]

Excellent video - glad you are able to keep the old iron running and making a go of things. I especially like seeing the kids helping with chores and also I understand that your wife is definitely a big part of your dairy's success. God bless you and have a wonderful Christmas.

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you very much! Merry Christmas and God bless!

[@timmyjohnson3999]

I love watching your videos because I like the old tractors and equipment and you all are a great family

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Nice collection of Case and IH tractors and implements!!

[@jimwalker2894]

Buying new farm equipment can be very costly and get you in debt trouble quickly, old iron that does the job is a blessing. So hang on to the old tractors :)

[@arthurdewith7608]

Politicians food processors climate fertilizer land costshurt the farmers so much

[@charlesmcguire7023]

Love the videos keep them coming

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

That 3 cylinder JD 820 would make a great brush hog tractor!!

[@anthonyhengst2908]

I've recently followed a variety of You Tube diaries. Yours is pretty much a spitting image to what my family does in North central Wisconsin. (Except we have no manure lagoon so in the winter we spread it every day) but feeding that silage still get a kick that we do that almost exactly the same way. One difference is we do milk our 45 cows with 4 surge buckets and carry milk in pails and use a strainer. That works ok for us. We talked about putting a pipeline in but the stall part of the barn is only 7ft. high. According to the fieldman, by the time the pipe gets to the milk house it would be like 5ft off the floor. As long as the creamery is still ok with the way we do it we will continue. I am kind of familiar with your area in that I went to college in River Falls WI. My youngest brother lives in Frederic, just straight across the border a stone's throw from you. It seems we have much in common, perhaps most small dairy farmers do. In honor of your 100th video I subscribed too. (I thought I did already and saw I didn't.... My bad) Best wishes on the next 100. Happy Holidays.

[@trinitydairy]

Very cool! Yeah whatever works is the way to go. After having the channel I've gotten a lot of comments from people that do things just like us or did. Thanks for subbing!

[@nathancarlson6005]

Really enjoy your videos Alan me and my brother run a small dairy and farm in the very north east corner of Washington state keep up the good work and God bless

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Those 1066s are real work horses!!

Thank you. Dont the negative bother you. You guys are great!!!!

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you! God bless!

[@brandonbeckemeyer1579]

I love seeing the old equipment. Thank you for sharing your small farm with us. Have a merry Christmas!!!

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you, you too!

[@roostercogburn6932]

Your equipment tour was great, they get the job done, the best part is they are paid for, as you stated the economic horizon concerning farmers is hard to see now, the idea of accumulating debt is unfortunately the worry for many small farmers today, you make a wise decision to grow slowly, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and your family, God bless you all

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you! Merry Christmas and God bless!

[@mnfirefighter813]

Fancy equipment doesn't pay the bills, keep up the good work!

[@russellhansen7622]

Thanks for the tour. It is good to see someone use and be happy with the older equipment rather than go into huge debt. Hope your family has a Merry Christmas. BTW I liked seeing the Virgin Mary.

[@philipderrenbacher3361]

I love your farm!! Its the size of dairy farms that used to dot our landscape in New York and all over our beautiful United States of America. So many small business family farms that supported so many small businesses. Thank you for sharing your farm and family with us. Congratulations on your 100th video! God Bless and Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you, and Merry Christmas!

[@Soupcanexhaust]

Nice collection of vintage tin!

[@johnfawcett4606]

Great videos. I think I’ve seen them all. You’ve got a great farm and family up there.

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you!

[@stevebrooking4506]

If people don't walk in your shoes and see through your eyes how can they be right and you be wrong? There's always another way to do something but you make a call as you see it. Quick question on high moisture corn. What is it and why don't you do it anymore? See a few Dairy Farmers on KZbin using it. Really enjoy watching you all and have a safe Merry Christmas 🎄

[@trinitydairy]

High moisture corn , is shelled or cob corn, harvested at a higher moisture, we did it with cob corn, which is also called snaplage or earlage, I tried to harvest it at around 50 percent moisture. We quit doing it because if the weather gets to warm, it's hard to keep it from molding, and if I don't have enough for a full year, and have to switch feed the cows drop in milk until they adjust. It does make nice feed, and the cows like it but it didn't work as well for us. Thanks for watching!

[@nashthomas312]

Merry Christmas and God bless

[@bobsteinmetz7507]

Congratulations on 100 videos!! Thanks for sharing and please keep them coming!!! Love the older equipment, reminds me of my grandparents farm when I was growing up... awesome memories!! Thank you for that!

[@kimculver1038]

Glad to see your growing ,and putting out fine videos

[@rodneygreenamyer3776]

Keep up the great work. You and your family represent a dying breed in our country - the small family farm. Where I grew up here in Ohio, they are almost all gone. Really enjoy watching your work and dedication to your family and farm. Thanks for brightening my days. I worked on my neighbor's dairy farm for most of middle and high school and am now a teacher. Many mornings I miss going to the barn, some, not so much...:)

[@tomb.1972]

Congratulations with your first 100! You are just warming up. So carry on and you will find plenty of content as you continue. Blessings to all, and Merry Christmas! Stay safe.

[@ssmith1931]

Keep it simple you have more than the richest people

[@FaithiinJesus]

Thanks for the video. I recognize most of your stuff from my days on the farm, finally a farmer that appreciate his audience, responds to his comments, nice to his children that are helping, and isn't too proud to receive gifts from his viewers. My new favorite farming channel!

[@jimharris8707]

Congrats on your 100th! I'm not a farmer but your channel has struck a chord with me - I admire the work ethic that you have to have as farmers, all the machinery that's involved, and that your family seems like the "traditional all-American family". The content has been interesting to me, like the manure pipe saga, I loved Jordan and Justin's mini equipment tour, and the Carlton County Fair - Treasured Memories video was fantastic. I wish y'all a Merry Christmas and hope for a better 2021!

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you, and Merry Christmas!

[@dougbelinla6703]

You remind me of new jersey dairy farmers i really love your videos finally someone who farms similar to me with older equipment good luck with everything

[@trinitydairy]

Thanks for watching!

[@dougbelinla6703]

You and your family really inspire me to keep going its a dying thing in my County only six of us left

[@trinitydairy]

Oh man it's the same way around here, hang in there!!

[@andylieffring3987]

Congratulations on the 100th video! I think I stumbled on your channel right after the new year last year and you had maybe 100 subs at the time. I fell in love with your channel immediately. Love how you guys represent farming and how you raise your family. The both of you are a blessing to your children and it’s obvious they are a blessing to you. You are equipping them well for this crazy world we live in. Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@ethanthopy1996]

As I have said before this is the best farming channel on KZbin! It is awesome to watch 40 plus year old equipment still earning its keep. You guys show that with hard work and a little ingenuity a person can still make a living on a small family farm.

[@johngourley741]

Really enjoyed hearing the history of your farm and how you got started milking cows.

[@kennethhall5070]

I think it's Great that you guys continue to run that small dairy farm. I'm proud of y'all for teaching your wonderful children at home school and educating them on the workings of the dairy farm. I myself milked Jenny and Beauty, a Jersey and Guernsey milk cows after my Ma trained me and realized I could get the job done at six years old. I was lucky. Great job you guys are doing. Thank you for all you do.

[@mikebrown1188]

100 videos well done congrats!!! Merry Christmas to all of you. The reason I keep watching your videos is that they are so wholesome. Keep up the great work! Your channel has really grown this fall.

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you, and Merry Christmas!

[@scotthenning2890]

I watch a number of farm KZbin videos. I enjoy them the best because it takes me back. Everyone has a different way of doing things. I like that you all have stayed small nothing wrong with that. Don’t let anyone tell you different. You guys reply to many comments and are as humble as can be. All the best and keep up the good work. Merry Christmas to you all 😊🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🎄🎄

[@trinitydairy]

Thank you, and Merry Christmas!

[@bigDH123]

That was an awesome video Alan, i love the farm tour videos. If you do decide to get the old Case combine running, I would be more than happy to be part of it. Thank you and God bless.

[@Tombo28]

I'm from southern Minnesota, I love farming and it's sad to see a lot of these farms quit farming.

[@trinitydairy]

Yes I agree, it's so sad to drive around and see all the farms sitting empty. Thanks for watching!

[@aaronsanborn4291]

I mowed thousands & thousands of acres of hay with a New Holland Haybine growing up on my Grandfather's dairy farm here in Maine. We didn't have a lot of newer equipment. I grew up in the 80s and 90s and most of our equipment was from the 60s or 70s

[@jefferytrice9180]

A nice pole shed would be nice. Little bedding pack like you said for the cows when weather isn’t so great and if big enough maybe sneak in some equipment in there also lol. A farmer wish list is always growing but you are correct you need to think about the future and if the infrastructure will remain there to keep the dairy going. I do enjoy the videos I too had cows till 2016 but still farm a little and mess with a few beef. Just the days of the small family farms seem to be going away.

[@trinitydairy]

It sure feels that way, but as long as they keep picking up the milk, I'll be here.

[@larrylund2682]

Having dairy does restrict your time. Morning and evening 7 days a week for milking along with keeping up with the requirements for milk quality. I love fresh milk. It is an acquired taste. Nothing like that stuff in the grocery stores. If it came down to the bulk trucks stopping picking up the milk I wonder if it is worth it to separate the cream and sell that? Maybe even make butter? It is a niche market for sure. Nothing like fresh cream and butter for cooking/baking . The last tractor my dad bought was a 1066 Turbo. He loved it. Upgrade from a 4020. You have different conditions to farm in than we did in Lac qui Parle county. Farm life in Minnesota is tough. But, it is a great way to grow up. Builds "character". Haaa But, seriously it is a healthy way to live.

[@maximush9811]

[@douglasmacarthur8775]

at 25:02..............you touched on a problem many areas that are not heavily into dairying are experiencing. Having farmed in the #1 dairy county in Minnesota ( Stearns) we have lost a lot of small dairy farms . However, whether one is opposed to larger dairy farms or not, having them in your area keeps milk trucks in your area, feed trucks, and veterinarians.

[@trinitydairy]

Also Stearns is much closer to a lot of processing plants.

[@Ken43952]

I grew up in Stearns county as well. Moved to NC. Miss all the dairy farms.

[@jeremyfreeman717]

I am extremely nervous about the incoming administrations war on animal agriculture

Thank you. It's definitely by the grace of God! Merry Christmas!

[@rogerwilson9892]

Buy as you can for equipment that is old is just as good as new and 25 cows hard to justify a new barn.

[@MrFfhans]

👍 Tons of respect to your family. I'm an ex-dairy farmer. You seem like a guy I could talk to all day, very conscious and intelligent.

[@trinitydairy]

Thanks!

[@tweek857]

Love the videos! Are you guys progressively growing the dairy ? Reminds me of growing up on a dairy I'm 35 I remember milking with the bucket milkers... I miss it so much! Love all the older equipment I'm trying to get back into farming I have older equipment but I keep going! With as much acreage as you have you should take some lumber and take it the local sawmill and build a nice barn/shop... keep up the good work! Merry Christmas Trinity Dairy god bless ya guys!

[@throwback336]

What a great video. I love seeing other farms. We bought our farm that hadn't seen cows since the late 70's. It took a lot of work to bring it back enough to just milk and we're far from where we need to be. I love your channel. I've certainly got some catching up to do on your videos. Keep up the good honest work. You should be proud.

[@trinitydairy]

Haha. I have an old wood stove in my shop, but the junk keeps crowding it and I end up working outside again.

[@braydengarrett4164]

I think green chop is one of the many best feeds of dairy or beef cattle, if I start a cattle farm when I'm older, I will most likely do green chop for feed on my cattle farm. I love your videos and your equipment, keep those classic tractors and equipment rolling.
