[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thank you!!!!

[@eugenevjohnson6372]

I totally ditto this comment. I look for Rhonda's videos first. Thank you for a genuine, clean, family farm video. I love the dialogue between Kevin and Rhonda. A comedy act at times. Thank you so much.

[@greggrondin3034]

That corn cutter has more power than I gave it credit for!💪

[@larrycriqui7883]

Rhonda it is a pure pleasure watching your videos, I'm a 67 year old Vet from Kansas and I had the privilege of growing up on a farm and miss it everyday.

[@kens.3729]

Happy 22nd Birthday, Mackenzie. 🎉 🎂

[@carlfoltz4244]

Rhonda: we love listening to your mid-western accent. And believe me, ya'll do have a mid-western accent. Be gald of it, for it is a sign of the heartland of America. And it's not rambling when you are conveying information. Please keep on.

[@kens.3729]

Makenzie Likes 😬👍 to Ramble but she’s Funny and we can Never get enough when she starts Rambling. 😬👍

[@daleschroeder8661]

Nothing out of the ordinary lol

[@franklackie2469]

Rhonda I wanna be the 1 st one to wish you a happy birthday you must be about 29 . .? ❤

[@davidhowerton3434]

I don't get to farm much anymore. I really enjoy your videos, they bring back memories. I enjoy your family and how blessed and how close ya'll are. May God continue to Bless you and your family.

[@justinmills8084]

I drove across Utah to see my dad and we enjoy going in the mountains. I have two mountain passes to my dad's. The color is at its peak. 30:27 30:28

[@davidhecker1894]

Hi Ronda, I absolutely love watching your videos. It doesn't matter how long the video is, the longer the better. I grew up in logging and farming so while your videos are informative, for me there more reminiscent. I really like that your channel is faith based. You have an absolutely amazing awesome channel even your kitchen channel. Please don't change anything you're doing a wonderful job entertaining and educating. Thank you Ronda, Kevin, kids and family.

[@StanleyWareham]

A lot of people in the UK who harvest maize for cattle feed give the field a good dose of slurry and the plough it in

[@doughaynes1048]

Great to see you Rhonda and family again always busy working doing daily activities with family . Enjoy your day , looking 👀 forward to seeing your next adventure . Blessings ✝️⛪️🤗😀❤️🐑🐓

[@vicchiapetta4166]

Hi Guys, I have several types of disks, from large Break-Down Disks to Finish Disks!! Personally, I would use a heavy Break-Down Disk with Notched Blades to start Primary Tillage, then use your Finish Disk, then Drag the field, seed and Ring-Roll to finish!! Happy Birthday to all, and God Bless Everyone, Vic!!

[@gregschlafer7557]

Wild cucumber will spread like wildfire if left unchecked. I really enjoyed the video!!

[@justinmills8084]

You are so blessed to live a lifestyle to teach your kids so many traders and hard work. I wish I had that but I grew up with hard work daily chores that had to be done.

[@jrbpa5775]

I enjoy your videos since I was born and raised on a dairy farm in north central Ohio. We got out of the dairy business in 1975 after 3 generations of milking. Just wasn’t any money milking then. We did a lot of things similar to the way you farm except we had 3 Harvestore silos. Thanks for your videos !!

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thanks for sharing!

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

Rhonda, you don't ramble. You explain in detail, with your own personal inflection on what ever is happening. Unlike those guys you video, who just babble on incessantly about everything under the sun! 😭😭 Seriously, you do a great job of explaining things, and almost always with a smile. Not as many smiles as Kevin, but he smiles every time he sees you. Smart man 👍👍

[@paulkoontz6095]

Happy birthday beautiful Rhonda, great to see you and family working hard for us. I grew up on dairy farm but Dad had to give it up because we boarded flood control and kept losing crops and cows always ended up on wrong side of creek when needed milked. This old man appreciates your videos!

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thanks!!

[@jaykettlewell3922]

Love your videos. Question and answer videos seem very popular with some of the other farm channels that I watch.

[@johnmedici6655]

Long or short, your videos are always a pleasure to watch! Have a happy birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thank you!

[@scottmavis3093]

Ronda... you do not ramble!!! It's so great to listen to you & tell us how things are going & what y'all are doing!! What a refreshing outlook as you keep us all updated on stuff!!! Yep... happy fall, y'all!!! And to Mackenzie... Happy Birthday to the birthday girl!!! Woohoo!!

[@NeilMaclachlan]

It’s still so dry here in west central Missouri. Have not had to worry about wet spots at all this year.

[@1944chevytruck]

good job everyone!

[@farmboy5622]

Happy Birthday Mackenzie!!! Kevin eating most of your carrot snacks,.....so funny!!! Maybe Kevin will get you a big bag of carrots for your birthday?!?! Nice to see the Challenger back in action after all the work you guys put into it.

[@wesmyers734]

As a retired civil engineer who has been around a lot of concrete placements, I would suggest you get concrete with less water in the mix (lower slump) and you will end up with more durable concrete when it has cured to a dry finish. I really enjoy watching you and your family’s farm activities.

[@mastinfowler8225]

Enjoy watching your videos very much y’all are hard working family..and can repair anything..God Bless..I’m from Virginia (Southern)

[@I-am-not-D1-4U]

[@JimDavidson-tb7qv]

Hi Rhonda I don’t think you ramble too much - it’s nice to know your thoughts. And, 30 minute long videos are not too long. I love seeing all the farm activities.

[@kens.3729]

We Received between 4”-6” of Rain the past 6 days in St. Louis Area. Long Over- due after Very Dry August and September. Corn and Beans still in the Ground. 👍🙏

[@clarencedavister9098]

Your videos are awesome and a great alternative to shows that are on TV right now. Love watching farming videos.🚜🇺🇸🐄😉

[@larrydavidson3402]

This is one of the hardest working families out there. The best part is they all do more than their share.

[@rdyardie]

This is a rare opportunity to watch your video before church. Your videos can be as long as you want. Thank you. By the way, we got to church "on time".

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Don't be late for church because of me!! 😄

[@rdyardie]

@@acresofclayhomesteadWe are not blaming anyone. . . . By the way, we even unloaded our van with two boxes of MacIntosh apples and Honey Crisp apples. Yesterday we made two pies made with MacIntosh apples. They are especially good with a ball of ice cream. Pies made with MacIntosh apples are our favorite. I peeled the apples and my wife made the pie crust. . . . We are a "team". 😊

[@tsparky236]

Just an idea that I used once? Rake it, bale it and this should get rid of a lot of the stalks so you can plant? I had same situation, did it and it worked? Just used it for bending. Love the channel

[@jonseim4030]

I love watching your videos! I learn something new everytime! Its awesome to see the whole family getting stuff done together, as well as working on their own stuff.

[@johnhenderson299]

I watch all your videos they are great

[@Denise-Lee]

I was borned and raised in Michigan and in Arkansas now. We are just starting to see fall colors. My grandson has moved to Wyoming, MI for work and loves it. Hope to come back home for a visit soon. Love your videos and your family.

[@Lawrencemechura]

SUCH GOOD JOB YOU GUYS. IT'S VERY HARD WORK. I KNOW I USED TO DO IT WHEN I WAS A YOUNGER GUY.BUT NOW I WORK FOR SOMEBODY ELSE AND HAVE THEM HAVE THE HEADACHES. THANK YOU SO MUCH.THEY'RE ALWAYS ENTERTAINING

[@davidarthur1542]

Rhonda claiming she doesn't have an accent! Very funny. Western Michigan definitely has a unique accent. I love hearing different regional accents.

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

Definitely an accent. I'm glad we suthernah's don't have such a thang. 😮

[@acresofclayhomestead]

😂

[@grantpowers]

Hi Rhonda,,no worries about your videos you do a great job,, I’ve been watching since the start, and Kevin and you have given me some good advice about farming,,, have a great day 😄😄😄😄😎

[@carljones2198]

What a wonderful family. May god Bless you !!

[@jeremysimon4439]

Kevin and boys, nice to see that you are now using a bull float for the concrete pours. Buy yourself a 3’ power trowel off the internet for the rest of the shop floor pours, you won’t regret the smooth floors for clean up and working on.

[@henryminton4760]

I love the long videos, you show a lot about your farm life and family life..I love your videos...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

Thanks so much

[@rayeddy528]

Thank you Rhonda for sharing some of your families journey !! 30 minutes sure goes by fast !! You and Kevin always speak so clear and calm. A pleasure to listen to !! The boys speak softly too when you can get them to talk on camera. Lol .. We have a mess here in Southwestern part of Virginia !! 15 inches + of rain!! Trees down everywhere, homes washed off their foundation, electricity out everywhere, bridges washed out and even one interstate highway closed . I pray you all didn't get hit to hard !!! Please be careful and God bless !!! Eddy

[@kendallhaltiwanger1083]

I watch farming videos mostly. NONE have a better narrator than Ronda, hope the spelling is correct. Ya'll are an amazing family and farm operation. Thanks for who you are and what ya'll are doing to feed us.

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Yes, you spelled my name right. 😊

[@danne77sthlm]

Here in Sweden where I live, we had basically no rain from late August to September, until this week, then instead we got 3,5 inches this week, the farmer that rents our farm grounds got the winter wheat into the ground just 1 day to spare until the rain came, so he had great luck with that, and we only had 36F this night here, the leaves are well into autum colors and a lot also is falling down, so winter is on its way, first snow in the north too last week 🙂

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thanks for sharing your weather!

[@jameshattenbach5578]

It might help to use a brush hog on corn stalks first then disc

[@dieseldoctor2221]

I'M So tickled for Kevin and the boys to have a nice shop to work in it will make repairs more fun when ya have a nice place to work on trucks and tractors!!! GOD BLESS!!!

[@roddetweiler2425]

Yeah no color here in sw MI either. We've had almost 4 inches of rain in the last two weeks. crazy dry to wet when the farmers want to start harvesting here. Alot of seed corn in our county which is probably half harvested.

[@robertlafollette2236]

Beautiful sunset thank you and God Bless.❤🙏

[@thomashorn5062]

30 min video is perfect. Question: how big is the new shop, will it have heat water and electric? I didn’t see any drains in the new concrete. Maybe I missed that in past videos but thought I would ask.

[@CosmosNut]

Appreciate you letting me tag along, Thank You.

[@jimaalbers857]

Thank you Rhonda and family

Your farm is very diversified.😊

[@ablelock]

RONDA and Kevin enjoy your videos with all of you and your family and involved. Don’t worry about the 30 minute videos they can even be longer. You guys have a lot of interesting things to talk about and you’re never rambling at all. We enjoy that conversation that you have let us know how you do and how you come out after the hurricane has come through your area, along with any other new items that’s happening around the farm I’ll take care and hear from you soon. 😊

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thanks!

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thank you!!

[@davidkettell1073]

As i said last week ,i love hearing about youe family and the ups and downs of farm life. My grand father was a pig farmer , a soul destroying life,except for all the free pork which sent him to an early grave although my mum says that her mother was more likely the cause .lol. As far as attention span i do not think too many under 40,s are watching your channel unless they are from farming families because they just do not understand the necessary work ethic.

[@lynwessel2471]

I would suggest running the reel disk first so it has firm ground to cut/chop against then hit it with the offset.Then a quick light pass with the reel disk to level. Adjusting and adapting to the situation pretty much sums up farming many days.

[@charlotteaman4277]

hey last weeks video was great all your videos great thats why i watch em

[@bernardvonderheide1268]

Thank you for the video. I look forward to hearing and seeing what you all are up to .

I love the updates on the shop and watching the progress!

[@donaldwallace9417]

I like the longer videos alot. Keep up the good work

[@SteveTyson-o9f]

I have been following your channel for about a year, Sunday afternoon starts with you! Love each episode, you are the Superwoman - wife, Mom, truck driver, tractor lady, wildlife tender, and an awesome cook I am sure, those meals look so good, wish we could smell on KZbin! Please don’t worry about rambling and 30 min videos are fine and more is better since yours are so easy to listen to. Your family amazes me, what they can fix and can tackle anything! Questions for you for the Q&A: what do you do with the male calves on your dairy operation, what is your faith, and how do you ever get the clothes clean? I thought mine were bad, some of Kevin’s look look like they may need a commercial washer! And you do have an accent, telltale Michigan by the way you pronounce words with two T’s in the middle, love it! I live in Fla, have a tree farm in Ga, so you would be amazed at the ya’ll words and many more of the southern drawl I am told. I am rambling! Sorry Keep up the great work!

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thanks for the comment!!!

[@JerryBrentnell-x9z]

[@acresofclayhomestead]

Thank you so much!

[@nailbender7223]

I wish you no problems with the shop insulation but in our climate its best to have house wrap outside of framing before tin so insulation contacting steel doesn't make moisture. Your climate is warmer so hopefully your golden!!
