A family that farms,works,play together stays together. All 4 of you make a good team I have noticed in your videos. I am glad your teaching your kids your values. I liked the side arm,the Browning Emblem on the steering wheel. I also like how you were trying to get ahead of the 8 ball there planning and executing your plans for supper. Back in my day on the farm,one of the most important things to have for repairs was baling wire. For you that don't know,back in the day they use to use wire for baling the bales, depending on where you lived. But,during harvest,a break down is always to be expected. THANKS for sharing your life and your family's on the farm.

Farmers are the smartest people on this planet. They can fix anything and jump right back on the Tractor and work until the job is finished. We farm in Pennsylvania 🚜🚜🚜🚜💜💜💜💜

I have worked for over 30 years as a Maintenance Supervisor and have hired a lot of guys. Anytime an applicant had "Grew up on a farm" or "Worked for a farm" that application went to the top of the list. Not always the best of the bunch but more times than not.

[@raydavis6979]

Not sure of a vocation that requires more variant skills.

[@shellywelly2174]

SERIOUSLY- they're botanists, horticulturists, mechanics, vets, herbalists, preppers, naturopaths even.... I just wish more would go natural farming practices like their grand/great grand-fathers did-often they aren't allowed to. Soil Carbon Cowboys.... great documentary on how 3 or 4 did it. Dr. Zach Bush did a documentary on it too and the emotional (and political/financial) struggles of keeping the family farm alive. One thing I know for sure, farmers have hard workin' wives!

[@ThisFarmWife_]

So awesome to meet a fellow farmer! Thanks for watching, Marie!

[@tannenbaumgirl3100]

You are absolutely right....Washington and communist left treats them like dirt, but not one of them could do anything farmers can! What's worse, farmers feed them and the Washington Elite are so unappreciative.

Hope LB doesn't see this video of you saying everything is going good and nothing has gone wrong just before a tractor break down! Your enthusiasm for cutting , raking hay and seeing those bale babies come out is so special . Don't change at all , you will never be sad during hay cutting season.

[@garypickering974]

Thank you for another great video. You made lots progress today. It is a blessing that LB is able to make those repairs. Glad he had a good team assisting him with the repairs. Wesley is quietly helping, I bet he is making mental notes. He is learning how to do the necessary things to keep the farm operating. Stay safe, hydrated, and well.

I love watching your family, we used to have several hundred acres, but we cut way back since my husband got hurt pretty bad in a work accident, he's mostly in a wheelchair now, but if I give him a boost he can get in his tractor, I just packed him a lunch, he's on his way out to grade the road and run the brush hog, neighbors are haying now, so he's going to want to see how they're doing take care of yourselves ❤

Talk about frustrating, making plastic parts for a tractor. I'm happy to see JD had the part LB needed for his tractor.

[@michaelkuehnen8584]

It's wonderful that even after seeing it so many times, you still get excited witnessing a bale baby being born.

[@StreetbikeSteve]

Lawrence knows what he’s doing with those fields. You two work together so well. Great job!

[@barrygrant2907]

You sure are the prettiest tractor driver I know. Lawrence and Westly remind me of me and my dad. He was a WWII Seabee and could build a house with a couple of hand tools and the plans in the back of his head. All he taught me was, "Here, hold this." When Lawrence said for Westly to hold something, it was Deja Vu all over again.

[@roberthillyer2888]

You are the happiest woman ever. I can see how you learned to be quiet when the surgeons operating. STRESS ,

Meredith: I washed my hair Lawrence: I didn't get to shave my legs I fell out of my chair!! You two can be so hilarious when "working a comedy bit" for Your Fans! KNEW the moment that "All Is Going Swell" was said that "Something" indeed was going to "Go South"! As usual Meredith KEPT The Sun Shinning while that Black Cloud rolled in and all was well soon enough! The Bernards Work and Play and Love Hard...and We Fans LOVE IT! Appreciate you all making sure "Gerdie" saves us a seat so we might come along too! Cheers From Ohio

[@shellywelly2174]

LOL "bale baby".... I'm in SK Canada, by way of WA state and I'm used to seeing square bales. When I got to SK 9 yrs ago and saw the round ones, I was SO excited to see one actually coming out. I affectionately called the machine, "the pooper". This was amazing seeing how the twine goes in. Thanks for showing it!

It not so much what happens to us in life as it is about how we respond to it that counts. We have a choice every day about our own attitude. Having a positive and buoyant attitude like Meredith not only helps the situation at hand but is such a wonderful role model for her family...and us.

[@h2recoveryteam2]

You know. I hear you say and I read comments about Lawrence's elbow's in his shirts. I was told this by an old farmer. Ya see son. I am tired and I work hard for a living. We break things as we work. Sometimes I am so tired I have to support myself by that elbow so I can stand up as I fix what is broken. And Meredith, in this case. Farming is just like working at a hospital or being a cop. Never ever say it's slow today or it is going so smooth. See, when you say that. That just opens the door to Mayhem.

[@davidschlecht3016]

Never fails to think all is going so well and then a breakdown or it starts to rain, at least you got back to it and no rain tomorrow will get it finished. 👍

[@doncroddy7856]

As always, just love to see your family working together. City folks may not be able to do much of that. Working with grandpa was always enjoyable, if not always fun. I learned a work ethic I have used all my life. He would tell me, We work then play, if we need to work, playing will have to wait till later, sometimes another day or two.

[@jonathanshrewsberry8507]

Love all your videos Meredith. Hope you and your wonderful family are having a great day!

[@davidcasper8923]

Did LB call down a few choice blessings on John Deere engineers? Also, kudos for your translative abilities of No. Carolina farmer. You make me laugh every post.

[@johnsadler8637]

Greetings from the western Ozarks, for a couple weeks. We repaired and cleaned fencerows Saturday ; more of same today and tomorrow. Maybe again Wednesday if this half mile doesn’t get done tomorrow. There’s a quarter mile of fence alongside timber that’s queued up next. That’ll go slower. Glad y’all got that fixed. Nothing like being a shade tree mechanic where shade is scarce. Hay fields are about the worst. Hottest places on a farm.

[@stevenharris2502]

May the lord find you something else to do to keep the farm alive and safe. I like the way Lawrence does things with each tractor and Wesley is really looking mighty good helping his dad learning more about the future. Meredith your always doing your best to keep the farm safe and keeping everything looking wonderful. Austin must be someplace on the farm probably in the pool or with the 🐑 🐑 ‘s enjoying all your hard working videos my guess is still 🤔 100 to 125 bales.🙏🙏👍❤️❤️🤟🏻✌🏻

[@scottodonahoe9505]

The farmer that lives just across the road from the John Deere factory in Waterloo Iowa bought a new John Deere and it broke down after 2 weeks so he went across the road to the plant and asked if any one could come fix it . They told him no . I was covered under warranty but had to ship it out and lost 6 weeks of use of the tractor . When you go past the plant now it has a nice parking lot full of Ford blue tractors that the farmer uses every day .

[@hermanmunster5831]

Nice when u dont have to call someone out to fix it! Glad to see Wes workin with his dad 👍👍🙏🙏

[@charliehos3936]

I agree with Lawrence. The engineer that come up with plastic fittings on a tractor needs to be reprimanded!

[@isaachaxton1295]

As a mechanic I know about what you went thru. I wish that I had been there with my toolbox. I have specialty pliers that would have made quick work of those clamps. Missed Austin's show. Really am proud of Wesley for being able to help so much. The farmer is the best with his jokes. Would of loved to see you jump when he blew the horn. Prayers and best wishes to you and your family.

[@billydobbins8308]

Missing Austin. Wesley is a big help to the farmer. He never complained

[@johnpasset9276]

[@firsttankcrews]

Have got my fingers crossed for you'all for the weekend.

[@tonyburelle6633]

I'll often say I love haying and harvesting, I've never liked working on a broken down tractor/piece of equipment, on a hot day, I used to get soaked, just like Lawrence was, , ugh, not such good memories, at least you were able to repair and finish for the day, probably got to eat before midnight, Wes is handier all the time, A very valuable tool, as you are, on Instagram you were still baling and hauling today, so I know things are moving along, thank God, excellent video

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

... A bale baby ...lol.. Wow ,, Wesley is really showing some growth .. good to have him around when some of the breakdowns happen ,, that way he'll know what to do in the future ... ... rain or shine ,, or when a little tension arises ,, you have an amazing attitude and roll with it with such grace ... If ever Lawrence gets to shave his legs .... you be sure to get that on video ... ..... Stay Safe and God Bless .....

[@johnnyholland8765]

Had to replace those return T before. Not the easiest to get too especially on a screaming hot engine. They get brittle over time from being cooked right next to the head all the time.

[@JOHNBEA]

Can they be insulated with some type of heat resistant material?

[@edmcwv]

Made in America is becoming a joke. Why not do it right the first time, pride in workmanship had gone to hell.

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

Hey Johnny nice seeing you here. I have had to replace the rubber boots on the return rail on my 4020 3 times in the 21 years I have had the tractor. Looks like replacing the rubber boots on the 4020 is a lot easier than what Lawrence had to go through.

[@tommymoore3795]

Getting in Order is a word we used to use in talking about tobacco in the barn. Means it has enough moisture to get out of the barn without it being so dry it would crumble apart.

[@stephenbierlein2517]

[@dennisdole1764]

Lawrence is the Man the Myth and the Legend of KZbin videos. At least he shaved 🪒 his legs for the big hay baling adventure 😂 I’m considering producing a movie 🍿

[@clarencewilson8610]

I sure was pulling for y’all! Better luck tomorrow with the baling and then moving the bales!

[@bluegrallis]

John Deere SHOULD have installed a bale counter on the baler. The old 14T baler we used back in the day for small squares had a counter. Lawrence needs a bale "kicker" on the back, so he doesn't have to back up to dump the bale. It really speeds things up and makes it easier for the operator.
