How Austrians Manage To Farm Steep Mountain Sides

[@wolfdar2009]

Looks just like southwest virginia hay fields. Around the same elevation too :)

[@margmurray1945]

So good to hear from and see all of you - the children growing and all of you well !

[@kerryl4031]

Beautiful area - and you have sunshine! Super machines indeed.

[@jockstewart8793]

Simeon, I've been following your activities for some years now and I just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done. I feel like I have watched you grow up and mature. Keep up the good work and I hope to continue sharing and learning with you for many years to come. If you ever wish to visit Scotland, rest assured that you have welcoming and comfortable accommodation for you and your family, here in the Perthshire hills.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Good to see you again, I can see why you wanted to move to Austria, it’s amazingly gorgeous!

[@carolynoconnor8567]

I was shocked to see your newest video come up on my KZbin recommendations! Before that nothing was coming up and now I see you've had three or four new videos posted. Looks like I'm going to be binge-watching!

[@flossybeans4714]

Beautiful, nothing like a day working and romping in a Hatfield with you family, so healthy, so good for the soul. And what beauty!! When you see this then the troubles of our time fall away for a moment. Hi, from Pacific NW, and thanks for the video, keep them coming!!!

[@joanwilliams346]

Fascinating to see the harvesting technique and the amazing mountains and valley. Looking forward to future postings. God bless you all.

[@othmarvohringer]

This brings back memories from growing up in Switzerland and helping out Alpine farmers making hay after school and during school breaks.

[@woodynook3437]

Thanks SOO much for the up-date. What beautiful country and your family looks very happy. i can't imagine working on those steep hills. All of our hay is in the barn and that is a good feeling.. Enjoy.

[@AgsiSD]

I was waiting for Julie Andrews to come prancing across those hills in full song ☺️

[@thomascrouch7915]

It is Wonderful to see you all looking so good and happy! I will be looking for the next video. Don' t fall down.

[@TXNLaurenMcN]

I was so excited to see there was a new video from you and it did not disappoint, that's for sure. It's so good to hear from you, Simeon and family. You're in a truly beautiful area.

[@KILLKING110]

Nice to see you back man

[@danam.8709]

Know all about Steep hillsides self-leveling combines are the only way here in the PALOUSE area of Washington state.

[@johnneal9793]

Wow!!!! Everything about this video is awesome beautiful scenery the weather the machinery and the smell must be out of this world, one of the best on the planet. Thank you for sharing and stay safe 🙏

[@evelynmeyer3798]

So beautiful to see your posts again! Love your spirit

[@pattyajuria2792]

Welcome back! Y'all have been soo missed!

[@afghanbunny1]

So glad to see a video from you! And so very interesting! I have watched it twice. We had an exchange student from close to Schwarz.... It would be fun to visit one day. I cannot imagine living in such a steep mountain area, much less farming! I live on the high FLAT plains of South Dakota, USA. Thank you for sharing. Blessings!

[@lesterbeachy1768]

So glad to hear from you, missed your posts, look forward to more posts from you,

[@christineortmann359]

My Grandparents immigrated from Austria - what a beautiful country and crazy to drive up and down those mountain sides. Glad you're enjoying your new home. Thanks for sharing.

[@radmilamiljanic5977]

Watching old videos... This one brought me back to childhood, my grandad's mountain village and all hard work about the hay. The kid's help in bringing cool water on hot summer days was highly appreciated!

[@ciaobella8963]

Amazing machines, and farming terrain. Good to see you all again. God bless.

[@stevenwieler2990]

How does that hay picker uper? unload off into the barn? Thanks for sharing your vid.

[@bethelle9099]

The breathtaking beauty brings tears to my eyes!!!! The color of the sky .....there is nothing like it! The sunlight, the greenery and a true healthy blue sky is the best medicine in the world!!! Wow! How blessed you are!!! 💖☀️🌈☀️⛰️☀️🌈☀️💖

[@tinamariegregory3130]

How wonderful to see you all ! God bless you , we still hold you & your in-laws up in prayer !

[@SillyMe2718]

Amazing scenery and equipment . Glad to see all of you again. Hope all is well with your new location.

[@kevin3434343434]

You are giving your kids memories they will look back on fondly, especially in times of difficulty. What a gift.

[@rickolson9011]

Really enjoyed this! Good to see The family working together stay healthy.

[@sharonpiper2253]

So enjoyed seeing another one of your videos. Miss you being on more often, but understand the owner's concern

[@janew5351]

So glad you arrived safely from Sweden

[@P.Wood-ef2gv]

So good to hear from you again. We have all missed you and your family. Hopefully you will be able to start sharing with us again.

[@TokyoCraftsman]

What a happy surprise to see a video from you! Cheers from Tokyo Stu

[@petruzzovichi]

Dear Simeon, I like many check daily for your update videos. We remain anxious to learn how your life is proceeding as well as that of your family. You are a wonderful man of great integrity with a talent for sharing the gospel in a humble, honest manner. I wish you and your family the best and await an update. The Old One from N Idaho

[@pksmith1275]

You get to see such beautiful scenery everyday! All the best to you and family from Georgia, USA.

[@joellenbroetzmann9053]

It certainly is very beautiful dense hay! I enjoy following you from one country to another. Many of my relatives have been farmers. And my and those relatives' ancestors were from Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland along the Austrian border. And all those ancestors ended up in Wisconsin, USA still farming. What you show helps me connect to my genealogical past.

[@northshoreireland1074]

Amazing way of farming, I’m really looking forward to your videos to come 👍🏻. Best wishes from Ireland

[@casto-]

There was a hay field behind my grans house that the local farmer used to mow (in the 90s) he used to gather it and hang it out on hay racks in the field to dry. We used to be on one of the last 'hills' of the alps in sankt radegund bei Graz

[@peterhaan9068]

Hm-m-m, from an active productive farmer to a day laborer. Not what I was expecting. It is good to see the family looking so good.

[@bradbyington7926]

Could you show how the hay is stored and unloaded?

[@genevievegreene1595]

Wow that is steep. The kids are looking so big! It is good to see you all.

[@pamelaarescurrinaga8201]

Beautiful, lush hay. I'll bet it smells GOOD !!

[@johnneal9793]

Yes I totally agree

[@shirleywolford3650]

It’s so good to see you again😊.

[@maryr8364]

Incredible beauty all around you

[@steveruby2120]

Good to see the family all healthy and happy. Those hay fields look like a good job for a leaf blower. HA

[@arcflashed]

Good to see you and your family doing well. God Bless

[@BonnieLeah]

It was great seeing you and your family again. Good to see you all doing good. Thanks for sharing this video with us. God loves you all. God bless you all.

[@pennyolson9940]

Beautiful countryside and wonderful experience for your children! Looking forward to more interesting posts!

[@PIANOSEEDS]

Your little one is always such a good worker. He's going to take after his dad.

[@marciacrow9943]

Wow, that is some kind of steep hill. It must have been hard to walk on all day. The kids seem to be having fun. Thanks for sharing.

[@chriss2295]

The view! Stunning. I wish you and your family well. Everyone looks happy.

[@MKCarol-ms7lg]

Thanks for a very nice video. You be careful running around on those mountains; you might end up with one leg shorter than the other. LOL

[@margaretbedwell58]

Absolutely beautiful country. I wish y'all well in this new country.

[@Creative-Chaos]

Thank you for filming this. It is impressive seeing the machines working at those angles. May you and your family be blessed as you start your new adventure.

[@gelwood99]

I can't even imagine, I can barely mow the banks by our pond because of the slope without thinking I am going to fall over and have the tractor on me. 🤣😂 But this is breathtaking for sure, almost a true vertical climb steeper than a racetrack turns! The scenery is truly amazing!

[@kosycat1]

I'm sure its no walk in the park for you either!

[@picking4profit]

those machines are incredible!

[@darenolson1453]

Great to see you and your family. I pray that God is keeping your family safe and healthy. Thanks for sharing your life with us. Many people need to see the peace you have in this difficult time.

[@knitvids]

Whoa..so steep. Nice to see y'all and the countryside

[@brendawhite6540]

Good to see you again👍hope all is well with you and the family😁👍❤️beautiful place😊

[@terrystewart2034]

What an excellent video. Haven’t seen you in my feed for a while and glad to see you are still on KZbin. I needed to store some ratchet straps and went looking for your video on that item.

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

I am loving this. My grandmother came to the US from Austria My family is all Swiss. So beautiful.

[@valtillman7634]

Thanks again for a wonderful video. I cannot put to words how happy your videos make me.

[@hollyslaughter5505]

It will be super amazing to see drone footage from the Alps 😉 some day

[@annahkurtin5345]

Beautiful landscape. When I was a little girl I lived in visions of Heidi. On our farm all the cows have short legs on one side like your animals.

[@christinedahlmann4295]

Awesome video, thank you for showing us all how they do all the haying on steep hills.

[@chelemichele1524]

Such beautiful a country ... Alot of hard work.. Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻

[@dennieolson1814]

How nice that you were able to help the farmer. Looks like a great experience, and maybe sore arm and leg muscles the next day. Thanks for sharing some of the valley scenery.

[@nancywolfe1983]

So glad to see you are back. I have missed you.

[@patbootie9552]

Man that's hard work!! My Grandfatgers hills were very tiny compared and he was one of a few that could drive a tractor across without tipping over.

[@robbytorregrossa1037]

Great to see you all again Ready for more videos

[@annebell7274]

Ooohhhhhhh such an incredibly beautifuanlandscape and very hard work 🌿💚🌿

[@carolsuesamuelson7935]

You are in a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing.

[@susanmarsh2856]

Lovely to see you all looking well and far less stressed. Your location is simply stunning. The farm is on a terrifying slope. Bet there were some sore leg muscles at the end of the day.

[@jimmotheus6151]

I’ve been in Switzerland at hay cutting and watch guys use huge backpack leaf blowers to push the hay down the hill and then a pass with some specialized equipment it was collected.

[@lindasalas7828]

Nice to see you all. Glad you are safe and sound. God bless you all.

[@jkshearer13]

Wow!! That is steep! Beautiful views also!

[@Dingbat217]

So what happens when the loose hay gets back to the farm, does it get baled up there or stored loose?

[@frenchqueen]

Hello from Oregon! Great to see you back on video. I will let Mark know so he can watch, too.

[@ChristophersMum]

It was great to find your video just now...I do hope that all of you have settled into your new home and the move is working out just the way you wanted it to...the kids are growing like weeds...all of you look well and I wish you all well ...ATB...Love from Scotland.💞

[@SolaceRadioMeanderRadioNetwork]

Thank you for the update. The low center of gravity equipment is amazing. German ingenuity! I'm glad you're all well and settling in there, and hope you enjoy the work.

[@lindamiller3144]

Beautiful countryside! Great seeing the entire family happy and healthy! God bless your hardworking family!

[@delsurf71]

With the little background it looks to me like a communal farm;I will give you another video to explain your situation. I enjoyed your videos when you where you.

[@kathleencarragher8194]

What a view! You and your family are looking well! That is amazing how they harvest on the mountain.

[@hollyslaughter5505]

What a wonderful family experience!

[@geraldswain3259]

Good to see you all well .

[@millerl333]

Thank you for sharing - it’s wonderful hearing from you and your family again! You didn’t mention how the hay was cut in the first place - did somebody do it by hand using a scythe?

[@davidbondurant8859]

Great to see you folks!

[@robertbell2022]

Beautiful landscape and big skies. I would think you would need to wearing your bicycle clips to drive on a slope like that. Amazing how other farmers make a living.

[@mariadi1069]

It was just nice to see you all, God bless you 🤗

[@corneillececil823]

So glad you are all doing so well. The views are so lovely. We have friends who live in the state of Idaho who do hillside farming, this reminds me of them. Very interesting machinery, looks like an enormous vacuum cleaner!

[@ladygray4]

What gorgeous, stunning scenery!! I drove a tractor so many summers, growing up, for my dad and brothers to bale & haul hay, that now the smell of hay and diesel fuel smells like summer!! Takes me right back to the 60s and 70s!

[@victor-emmanuel7485]

I wish you and your family all the best 👍

[@848meme]

Glad you are back. Missed you
