I love how Saundra’s face lit up when you mentioned that the new farm has perimeter fencing!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

I think that’s her favorite part of the new place. Appreciate y’all watching

[@celsopdacunha000]

It's a blessing having a creek crossing the land.

[@dwighthires3163]

Strangely this video showed up today in my "in box". I thought, "oh no", their new market trailer did not work because today is your first day at market with the new concept. However, it was fun to see the old farm and realize you have only been on the existing farm for two years. My oh my, how quickly it has already changed and improved under your management. Nice to see the brooders on camera, which are still functioning exactly as they were on the previous farm. Hope the new trailer worked out even better than planned. God bless you two.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thanks Dwight! Yeah. That’s an older video and a LOT has sure changed. Appreciate you watching!!

[@dwighthires3163]

@@SheratonParkFarms So you're not going to throw me a bone of extra information about how the new trailer worked?

[@Beps128]

I absolutely love watching the two of you interact with each other!! The genuine love is written all over y'alls faces. The humor and pickin at each other is that stuff that keeps a marriage fun!! Thank you for sharing your lives with us!!

Congratulations on the sale and new farm. Can’t wait to see new farm content. Thanks for always posting great videos!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thanks. Excited to show the new farm and think it will provide some great material for content.

[@robinwhitlatch4497]

Good strong 4 to 5 foot non climb woven wire and 3 - 4 strands of hot high tinsel electric on the inside and above the woven wire makes a great perimeter fence. Is what I installed 28 years ago and have never had a animal break through it and leave the farm unaccompanied. Livestock including stallions, bulls, pigs sheep, goats have huge respect for it and don't challenge the fences. 😁. Has given me huge peace of mind knowing no one is going to end up on the road or ruining neighbors yards and gardens. It was an expense but more so a long term investment. Strong fence makes a good neighbor and keeps your neighbors happy as well.

I've got 130 acres in the Berkshire mountain's of western massachusetts.beef cattle, and yorkshires.. had creek issues .till one day the wife says why don't we build a bridge...got my bro in law with his welder ,and we have a bridge now the cattle,and hogs pass right on threw...gated at both ends. Hope it helps...

[@JPLawnsMore]

Man oh MAN do I like the looks of that new creek!!!!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thought that might get your attention. 😉

[@boisterouscockfarmstead2217]

I agree about the perimeter fencing! That was one thing I was willing to invest in early on with our operation. You have to know you are going to be there for a long time for it to really pay for itself, but I don't worry at night about pigs getting out, not predators getting in, with the flex fence I have installed. Looking forward to seeing the new farm! Bless y'all

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thanks. The fencing will give us more options. Excited about it. Appreciate y’all watching

[@3CreekFarms]

[@tillmanfamilyfarm7759]

We have slowly redone almost all the perimeter fencing since we bought our farm. We did have a cow get out early one morning. Black angus hit by an F250 at 5am. Was a terrible experience. We have chased cows and horses many times. They are true grazers so feed buckets don’t always work like they do for pigs. Leave those regrets behind and move on.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

We’ve been lucky not to have anything get to the road. The new place isn’t close to the highway so that will help too. We’ve learned a lot of good stuff here that we can take with us. Couldn’t imagine the mess that truck vs. cow made. 🥺

[@tillmanfamilyfarm7759]

It wasn’t good. The truck hit the breaks pretty hard but still broke her shoulder. She was about 6 months breed with what was to be one of our first calves. She limped off behind a house at the end of our pasture. I talked to the home owner and waited until they went to work. I put her down there then took her to a local processor that worked his magic. The road kill steaks were bad at all.

Greg Judy also says that #1 is perimeter fencing.

[@pamelamercado6902]

My heart goes out to you when you start packing and moving everything That was the first thing I looked for when looking for property was for it to have a good perimeter fence

[@nandisaand5287]

Greg Judy said he's gone to deliver cows to farms and not dropped them of, brought them back, because the perimeter fence was inadequate.

[@Aussie-6869]

Congratulations on moving forward with your farm. I will tell you perimeter doesn't solve all the problems. Especially with cows, they can still get out... We lost a Heyshire dairy cow through our fences for a week this summer before she decided to come back

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Oh man! Thanks. We’ll be sure to keep our eyes peeled.

[@whineysnowflake8072]

perimeter fence was one of the first things i put up. Gives security and you can cut it up as you want with portable electric. It is a chore and expense but i start there first on every property

[@johnwood738]

Good morning,heading out to doctors soon,one pig to get picked up and thats it they will be gone. My friend I loaned my Duroc boar to came to visit me last night and he was telling me his sows had started pigging. Part of me wants to go see them, boar was bought by the breeder I got him from as a piglet. Miss the son of a gun, but glad he went home!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Good morning John. Thanks for watching

[@timlawson817]

Fence makes good neighborhoods . It keeps their pet off the farm so I dont have to kill them . And it's a must have as a second layer of protection from escaping animals .

great video. At 9:57, is that an old tobacco barn?

[@SheratonParkFarms]

It is. We’ve been using it for storage.

[@TheMallen07]

@@SheratonParkFarms I thought so based on the dimensions and overhangs. I grew up near Reidsville, NC (Rockingham County). There's still quite a few tobacco farmers in the upper Piedmont. I'm down in Union County now and don't see the old tobacco barns in this part of NC. I'm excited to see your new farm and future success.
