Hay Making Marathon

[@highsierrafarms]

Hey Pete, bought a few Dexters last year after watching your videos. Cow calved on the hillside in March, poor little guy came out landed on the ground and slid right over the edge onto the fire road 6 ft below. After a successful recovery operation momma and baby were reunited. We named him “Cliff”.

[@bryanlavergne4235]

LOL

[@sburwell75]

Thanks again for a great video!

[@slothonabike]

"Hi, I'm Pete. Welcome to Just a Few Acres Farm". Whenever i hear this, my day instantly gets better! Hope you reach the 500k soon!

[@tony98discovery]

Haha, I'm the same as you. No matter how bad the day is, it will get better when I watch Pete new video.

[@Ralphcanoeingadventures]

So true. Just hearing those words makes my day. I watch his videos so much, I know all his jokes! They are so relaxing. I can't wait till he starts using the little excavator.

[@Rangersly]

I just realized one bonus benefit from watching your videos. This morning, it was one of these days when everything seems to be going wrong. I woke up on the wrong side of the bed as they say, and everything seems to set me off. Then I sat down for my sunday morning coffee and breakfast and watched this video. And that was that. Watching you and Hillary going about doing your chores, the serene rythm of farm life, and just your calm positive comments on your everyday stuff calmed me down. Better than camomille and a ASMR video combined. This is the best. Thank you Just a Few Acres Farm!

[@JustaFewAcresFarm]

You are welcome. I guess making someone else's day a little better is one of the best things these videos can do.

[@lockman1951]

Hilary, I thought that the Dad joke was a good one, it worked, it got a groan from me!!😐 Warmest❤ regards to the two of you, from the two of us, in🦘🦘 Melbourne, Australia...

[@rickygreen1985]

Pete thanks for the calmness you bring into my life

[@davidschlecht3016]

Pete, really enjoyed this haying video and especially seeing and hearing the MD in action. The hay is looking good.

[@MaxineEwins]

Forget about Clarkson's Farm. Your the best.

[@dimanatrankova]

We live in Bulgaria and we stumbled upon your channel while searching for pigs videos for my 2 yo son. He has been a fan ever since, and regularly talks about you as "the Uncle" and "the Auntie". Thanks to you, he now has a more realistic view of farm life (we live in a big city). His favourite content is pigs and everything connected to your tractors and their maintenance. Thank you so much for being a part of this!

[@lostbear53]

I grew up on 400 + acres until I graduated... 175 tillable, over 40 varieties of veggies, horses, cows, pigs and chickens OH MY.. I've worked hard my whole life. Am 70 now and It's good to watch some one else do it!! THX for the memories!!!

[@jvvanlue569]

There isn’t anything better than just a few acres farm and some coffee in the morning. Good morning Pete and Hillary.

[@ronaldferino3414]

I've got to believe that the farmer that drove by on the big John Deere was just a little envious looking at a true classic doing what it does best. I love those old Farmall tractors, my Grandfather had an old Farmall H and a baler with it's own engine running it to bale hay. What great times. Now the house, milkhouse and barn are gone, leaves an empty feeling inside every time I drive by but some of my fondness memories

[@hayfork100]

My old barn and milkhouse have been torn down like yours, but I had preserved them with digital pictures and now see them every day on my computer screensaver. That picture calms me down and brings much pleasure.

[@markfincher4539]

Just a few acres is the best show to watch. All the videos are awesome to watch. Pete and Hillary are so cool working together. Pete thanks for keeping all the farmall tractor and equipment and making them like new . So cool to see you working them in the field. Ps your show is awesome thanks again

[@VanSmith07]

Pete, my daughter will be 3 in November and every day she tells me “daddy, I wanna watch Pete.” Thank you for the great content!

[@jakefrechette3224]

The vibrancy of the blue sky, green pasture, and immaculately painted red tractor in the angled shot was incredibly beautiful. Cool too to see how you handle scraps bails! Thanks as always, Pete!

[@markschwab7829]

Nice to see those old tractors out in the field doing what they were supposed to do. Keep up the good work Pete and Hillary.

[@annalorree]

This is the third year I have watched you make hay. After the old equipment videos, the hay videos are my favorites. They remind me of my youth, when my family made hay every year on our dairy farm. Of course, back then it was small square bales hauled by hand.

[@philliptrujillo1254]

Love your videos! You are living the dream!

[@josiahkeen]

I’m a Calvin grad but grew up in Holland so happy to see Hope represented today

Pete, you are and remain an inspiration for a generation of aspiring small scale farmers. Thank you!

Thumbs up Hillary! I love math jokes that are almost puns.

[@philjungels7617]

Every video you do takes me back 60 years, working on a farm, with the same equipment. My favorite tractor is still the "M", even after driving many newer big tractors. Thank you so very much.

[@PlaneViewFarm]

I love it when the closed captioning interprets the sounds of the farm equipment as "music" 😊

Pete, when you want to retire, I think a good side job would be audiobooks. You do have a voice that one could listen to while listening to a good book.

I just love the sound of the tractor baling the hay. Makes me think of may child hood on the farm. Thanks Pete.

Fun to watch! I used to have a used Gehl baler like yours. This brings back some very good memories. Thank you for sharing, Pete. God bless all had a loved one who served and died for our freedom. Have a great Memorial Day.

[@Ralphcanoeingadventures]

I love watching the Super C. That is a great looking tractor. I have a UT channel. I know how much work you go through to make your videos. Thank you so much. Your channel relaxes me every time I watch you. I have seen your videos so many times. I know your jokes. THANK YOU!!!

You look so satisfied and happy running all the tractors and implements that most farmers have discarded. Congratulations on your success and lifestyle.

I live in Nebraska farmed most of my life did a lot of hay and you know I have never seen a Tedder till I started watching your show kinda wish we would have had one 😊😊

Hey, hey…it’s hay day. 💚 (Kudos for leaving the Deere sighting in, Pete)

Always puts a smile on my face to see you pull into a barn full of (taken care of) Farmall tractors...

[@sueswift8344]

My second fav tractor videos of yours Pete, to actual cutting of the hay !!! Doesn't take much to put a smile in my heart!!! Anybody want to adopt an ole country girl at heart???

It's certainly nice when all the hard work you put into your tractors and they start almost every time! I have 3 push mowers and they only start when they want to not when I want it to!

The weather brings out the best in us thanks to a little from our friends. You were having a little too much fun but you deserved it. To see the aerial shots reminded how beautiful the fields look. You and Hillary have become a favorite of your subscribers. Positive, knowledgeable, and experienced in what you love. Thank you for sharing !😊

Seeing these old tractors at tractor shows are one thing but nothing beats seeing them in action out in the field. Now that's service. A brand new batchelor pad for Titus and Orden with fresh hay delivered right out of the field.

You gotta be fast to see it, but Pete gave a farmer style wave with his left hand to the guy in the big John Deere...

[@suebradt9086]

I became acquainted with your channel through my dad. He said, "Hey, check this guy out. He's from close to where we used to live." I grew up back in the 70's in Dryden. And then in the first few minutes of your video today you're wearing a Hope College t-shirt and I live 25 minutes east of where that is located. How fun! 🙂I really enjoy your channel. It's a breath of fresh, peaceful air in the midst of all the noise in the world today.

[@KenC49]

Hi Pete! An added benefit for using the older self powered farm equipment for people who have one tractor is if the tractor is broken a pickup truck or a vehicle of some kind, as long as the vehicle can pull whatever you using can be used. We used a 4 wheeler to pull an old horse drawn sickle mower and an old trip rake one time. Worked well.

Hello from the UK, Hi pete hillary, newholland 258 love to see it rust free and painted.

[@DonWelter]

Nice start to haymaking despite the shower. When you get a decent weather window, doesn't take long to get over 5-10 acres. We do 4x5 net wrap bales. My son bales and I concentrate on moving them to the barn with the spear on the loader and a rear spear on the 3 pt. Watching you carry the calf brought back memories of working on a cow-calf operation. Enjoy seeing you and Hilary working together!!!

[@CurtMcElvain]

That look you have when going from gasoline to diesel is priceless! I get the same reaction just watching. Great video!

[@genesloan3175]

Very nice group of calves there that newest one is really cute and I just love the drone footage when you're out there in the tractor that is so nice keep it up

[@gideonroos1188]

I grew up in a small farming community, just two elementary schools, one high school, and maybe 10 000 people. Lots of the farmers in the area had been 6-7 generations on the same land and had LOTS of old machinery they still used. Seeing similar machines on here is a treat. I do love them so much. The new big machines feel too corporate and impersonal. And it really doesn't help that you can't really tinker with them the way you can with the old machines. A farmer is 30% mechanic, after all. I always say a farmer is 30% mechanic, 30% plant grower/animal tender, 30% business man, and 10% miracle worker.
