Trench tip: After placing the pipe/wire/conduit in the trench fill with 6-12" of fill. Then place caution tape in the trench. Then continue to fill. Years later you'll hit the tape before the pipe when digging.

You can also put in sheets of siding, like the stuff from the old barn. That would also protect it from rocks above puncturing whatever line is in the ground and spread the load, so they're less likely to get punctured by any rocks below.

The amount of work that you have to do so I can have a gallon of milk is phenomenal. I appreciate your work ethic and will never complain about the price of milk again. I know the farmer only gets a very small portion of what I pay at the store.

I’ve learned while watching these videos that you have to be party dairyman, part veterinarian, part wrangler, part mechanic, part farmer and the lost goes on. These are all skills that can be taught in school but clearly you learned them as an apprentice alongside your dad and that’s the best way.

I used to live 2 miles from a quarry. It will absolutely mess with your water table. I had a 75’ well and after they blasted one day, I had no water. They denied it of course, but then new well I had dug I told them not to stop drilling until I had 25 gpm at 65 psi. They went 230 feet through solid limestone to get that rate. When they hit limestone, the rate per foot doubles. With the pump it cost me over $10k. But we’ll worth it! Pun intended limestone wells are the best water you can get from what they were telling me
