Thanks for feeding the world. Farmers are under appreciated.

absolutely true. if farmers and truckers decided they didnt wish to play any longer. if the truckers decided to park every last rig until they get more respect and if farmers decided to isolate so the stuff they grow and produce only goes to their farm. that would shut not only the country but the world down.

Tenho um respeito muito grande pelos agricultores! Mas infelizmente em meus país 🇧🇷a mídia medíocre que temos fazem campanha contra eles, como se fossem bandidos. Fico muito triste com a atual situação. Nosso atual governo é uma verme rastejante. ☹️☹️☹️

Pete: Thank you so much for taking the time to meet with your farming fans at the show. It was hot and you could have very easily told everyone no or even cancelled your meetup. I (we) would have waited twice as long to meet you. You were amazingly polite and your personality shines through when you got down on my fostership boy's (protective custody,) level to talk to him. The smile you put on his face was there all weekend. He told everyone and anyone around that Mr. Pete from KZbin talked to us about farming and worms. He even pointed out that he was wearing his red wiggler worm shirt. Even at school yesterday he talked about meeting Mr. Pete, Mr. Pete talking about worms, and he was able to ride in a golf cart. Your giant leap of career faith gave me the gumption to quit my job and take the worms to our current size. Thank you much. We will always watch and smile: Elliott & Pat

@@JustaFewAcresFarm my little buddy is under protective custody for "bad decisions" people close to him in life have made. With my newish schedule of worm farming, my wife and I are able to give him as stable of a living arrangement as possible. When we were first introduced to him, he was quiet and quite honestly, in shock. He & I watch every video that you have ever created and posted. Each video gives him 20 minutes or so to immerse himself in a reality that is not his. He knows all the cows & pigs names. If we are out somewhere and someone get loud or pushy, he looks up at me and says: Don't be a Patty! Your videos affect every viewer in a different way. For one five year old, your videos let him escape his reality and allows him to dream (and smell,) what might come true someday. Thank you.

We at St Louis Flight Service would bring the portable Flight Service trailer to Rantoul to give Pilot Weather Briefings prior to flying activities. I remained at Spirit of St Louis airport, but had some friends make the trip.
