About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. We dream that someday we can transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.

Hi folks, yes I am Peter. Let me begin by saying that it was a real pleasure meeting Morgan in person, and as a result, I learned that he is a very nice fellow with whom I would like to continue a friendship. I also realize more than ever how communicating via keyboard lacks the emotional aspect and sometimes civility, that is key in verbal conversations. It makes it far too easy to feel and say things that we would not ordinarily do in person. Anyway, I want to share with you that I never hated Morgan himself but was very upset by what I saw. I commented on his YT videos because I was distressed and concerned for the welfare of his livestock (particularly his cattle). In fact, that is one of the first things that I mentioned to him when he first contacted me by phone. This pretty much is the sole reason why I kept watching Morgan's channel. Not seeing any visual evidence of vaccinations, dewormings, etc. made me very frustrated and even angry, as I felt that his herd was not being given proper care. This resulted in some very direct suggestions and comments by me, some of which were admittedly nasty. Having been an engineer and scientist, I have always made direct statements without any sugar coating. I realize I could have been much more civil and not let my frustrations have me snipe at Morgan. I was very happy to learn during our visit, that Morgan has been giving his livestock more care behind the scenes than I had concluded. I have since "changed my tune" and feel very positive about what Morgan is doing on his farm. To those I may have offended, I apologize. To those who now have ill will toward me as a result of this video, I now have a small taste of what Morgan has been through.

[@kaleckton]

Sometimes it is tough because what is caught on camera and shown may not be the whole picture. So it is good to have a step back sometimes and try to talk. Some things are also more difficult than can be explained in a video. Not much else we can do besides talking.

[@allyfrank11]

I think it's wonderful that you were willing to meet with him and that you were able to express your concerns, get reassurance, and admit that your tone may not have been the most effective. With the others shared in this video it's clear they're not worth trying to get through to, but it's good to see you're a real person and reasonable enough to admit what you could've done differently and move forward.

[@NateLovesPasta]

Hey we all make mistakes. Don’t be too hard on yourself. The root of your comments came from passion and love for animals, not out of blind hate. I hope your guys’s friendship keeps blossoming! Thanks for being cool enough to talk to him and show him around. I wish the best for your cattle and dairy endeavor’s!~ btw if hate comments start rolling in ignore them. You personally made up with Morgan, so nobody else’s opinion matters about the situation!

[@jeanmax2808]

You’re good, it’s nice to see both parts learning and being nice about mistakes and misunderstandings

[@1wolfpup]

It would have been easier and WAY nicer to just have just asked him about the questions that you have. It’s not okay to be nasty to people just because it’s online. We wouldn’t accept that behavior from our children even. It’s important that we try to be respectful of each other even when we don’t agree- just as Morgan has demonstrated. I am thankful that you e commented here to demonstrate how important that is. That takes courage to do that.

[@ItsDatCajunStuff]

Many farmers: "Farming is dying out. We need more people to embrace raising food and animals." Also many famers, when they see a new farmer doing just that: "You have no idea what you're doing. Go back to fill-in-the-blank city and leave farming to real men who don't afraid of anything!"

[@k.j.hastings]

I thought the same. Single family farms have been dying. Why not assist people who have made the jump, and are as open to assistance as Morgan is?

[@spartydragon]

Yeah it's the same thing with people living in small towns. They talk about how it's REAL LIVING, but absolutely don't want anyone moving there. Well, unless you're just moving two towns over from an equally sad small town (having lived in small towns for much of my life, most of them are pretty sad).

[@hitmyslimjim]

Agreed. Arguably, that thought could be connected to every profession, at this point.

[@thegorgon7063]

If a farm is single income they'll see multi income farmers (like Gold Shaw where Alison, KZbin and sponsorship provide income stream) as hobbyist farmers and the multiple incomes creates jealousy and resentment. I 100% agree with Morgan on the hunting with dogs situation, but if you're a smallholder who needs to hunt to make ends meet then you probably won't.

[@donnaml8776]

@@thegorgon7063 I understand your point, but the thing is that Morgan isn’t against hunting, he’s against the recent type of hound hunting and going on other people’s property and not being even near and insight of your (meaning their) hounds.

[@rebel466]

I feel like Peter is an example of how the relative anonymity of the internet can gets to peoples' heads. It's much easier to forget that on the other end of the screen is a human being. People like Peter can be lovely people in truth, but anonymity concentrates any negativity and criticism they may have of a subject. I always try to keep one simple thing in mind online when I'm being critical of someone: "would i say this to their face?"

[@coffeeandcupcakes7310]

exactly!

[@jaginaiaelectrizs6341]

Hm... I suppose there may be some truth to that. But I personally think it may be a little more of an issue with how people tend to "fill-in-the-blanks" in their heads, they forget to realize how much IS NOT SHOWN in videos or comments or whatever else over the internet or anything else other than actually being there [so to speak ]in those shoes themself, and they mistakenly presume they know more than they actually do know at all. I think it's a misdirected use of our natural human ability to learn or extrapolate through deduction and/or context. ....only, done without consciously realizing or truly grasping that the informational dataset available is incomplete and thus totally impossible to guarantee an accurate deduction from. (Either that, or it's the common mistaken 'logic' or belief that an absence of proof actually equates to proof to the contrary, when in fact that is not even legally true; in truth, quite frankly, a lack of proof merely neither proves nor disproves anything at all.) But maybe that's just me? IDK 😅😁😊 Lol

[@SoLuVaBle299]

If I ever find myself feeling steamy about someone’s super rude or ignorant comments in the comment section or a KZbinr I like says something that really don’t agree with, I always take a step back and ask myself if I really care all that much. In the grand scheme of things, is it really that important to me to address their behavior? Usually, no. I make more jokes in the comments I post than anything else and I usually skip over the negativity in the sub-comment threads. But if it really is important, then I’m always very very aware of what words I use, how I phrase things, and the intention I have behind it all (which is usually how it is for everything I write, I can turn writing a page-long paper into a half day assignment). I never, ever send things off in anger. I did that once when I was young and ended up being super rude to a lady whose comment I completely misunderstood. Never the fuck again. 👍🏿

[@Nagassh]

I can't think of anyone who's framed themselves as less of an expert than you. You're always pretty upfront about being new to this and not being an expect but giving it your best.

I liked the part at the beginning where the guy accused Morgan of pretending to be an expert at everything. When did Morgan ever claim to be an expert at anything other than Insurance Marketing? His adapting to his failures make some of the best videos. For the record, I grew up on a farm and other than the meat chickens all the animals had names. Whether it was the layers, the milk goats, the meat goats, the bi-annual drop calf or the feeder pigs, they all had names. Even if you personally couldn't eat an animal you hand raised, there are many out in the real world who can.

[@paulawhitehead2561]

SO true.

[@initialdluvr]

That tiktok guy is definitely an idiot. That Peter guy just seems like a great guy, just let his keyboard warrior side come out behind his screen. Anyway, thanks Morgan for doing this. It's not easy confronting your haters but you did it so respectfully and thoughtfully. Makes me appreciate you and your farm more. :)

[@Litation101]

Who is the tik tok guy???

[@darkelysium2187]

The tiktok dude doesn't seem like a farmer and even said not a hound hunter so he shouldn't really have credible criticism when you don't have the experience of being a farmer to know what is right or wrong. Also a tiktoker, probably chasing clout by making drama.

I’m glad that the Dairy Farmer took some time to talk with you! It’s cool to see how similar y’all’s stories are. I hope y’all can keep in touch because it seems like you guys would give each other a lot of excellent feedback and support as you go about your farming journeys. Sending lots of good vibes to both you guys!

[@ginacirelli1581]

I think the whole thing with Dairy Farmer happened because tone isn't recognized in the written word. And he's an engineer, which explains a whole heck of a lot. I've known many engineers and I would always have to remember to question how they said things before getting upset, since I'm a highly sensitive person. In turn, the engineers helped me learn how to be a bit less apt to quickly take offense.

[@Darth1Marik]

This is incredible! This is how you deal with feedback and or criticism. You have a civil meaningful conversation with those who judge or criticize you. In the end you'll probably find out that they are just extremely passionate about the things they do and say. I don't get why people have to be nasty about a particular topic and then refuse to talk about it? What are they afraid of? Morgan you handled this like a champ and the fact you are willing to talk to your critics and "haters" really speaks volumes to your character. Never let anyone get you down man, you're a good dude looking to do good things. No ones perfect and everyone makes mistakes but unlike most people you learn from your mistakes and always look to do things better. Keep it up man.

[@burner_boi]

I actually really liked the dairy farmer. Compliments to his farm it looks so well designed and he looks like he has a extreme love for what he does too, I think it was great to hear you two could relate so well with having a crisis and stepping into this line of work.

The Dairy Farmer being an engineer makes perfect sense in light of his lengthy and pointed comments. He’s a stickler for details and not tolerant of others’ way of doing things.

[@ysakoko]

Not tolerant of other ways is a bit harsh imo... but like you said a lot of engineering standards and regulations are lessons learned in blood, totally explains Dairy Farmer's pov

[@KayBee659]

Haha yes, I think people who are “black and white” thinkers disproportionately become engineers (or similarly linear fields). Personally, I struggle to accept things that are not fully aligned with my own beliefs and opinions, and I went into a math field rather than becoming an engineer, but it’s a similar type or thinking. :)

[@poilaaliop]

Just a quick summary for the folks who are worried that Morgan is stirring drama or platforming bad people: In this video, Morgan goes out to the goat farm of a regular critical commenter, and they actually have a lovely day hanging out, meeting animals, and seeing how that farmer, who is called Peter, makes cheese. It's really uplifting and nice, and Peter has been replying to comments here saying that they had a good time. Near the end, Morgan mentions he tried to talk to some beardie TikToker, which was pointless. But at least that part of the video is quick, he doesn't dwell on it too long and just says he's never doing that again. Then Morgan reveals that the nephew guy in camo roasting him near the beginning was actually a comedian buddy of his. So that part was all in good humour! 😊 Happy ending! Very little drama!

As a veterinarian i have been worried abd left comments about the lack of vet care unless and emergency. Like Toby's lyme desease. That's preventable. There are anti-parasitics that protect dogs and cats feom tick deseases and honestly toby was lucky. Lyme is the least life threatening. The dairy farmer had a point what happens when one of the cows gets mastitis (something almost every cpw goes trough multiple times in their life). Or they get a hoof problem. How is he gonna give them magnets? The cows barely allow brushing they deffo not gonna allow a tube to be put down their necks to swallow a magnet. How they gonna get their vaccines? Veterinary care is about preventing deseases. What will it take to get the stuff you need to handle your cattle is the question I ask?

It's clear as soon as Morgan starts to tell his side of the story that this guy doesn't watch the videos all the way through. He always says that Abby isn't a failure or a bad dog, regardless of what the thumbnail says. He can't take all the chicks from a store because that encourages the store to keep doing what they're doing, and that's not a financially realistic thing to do when you own a farm. And yes, some of his poultry goes to the freezer but Morgan has always said that his goal is to give them a good quality life until that happens. He isn't running a shelter for abandoned animals; he is doing this because it's what he loves and he needs money to live. Crying is normal. It shows that you are human, have feelings, and that you have strong emotions towards certain things. The whole idea that "crying makes you a boy, not a man" is just plain stupid. Anyone can cry about anything. We all have a different story and different things cause us to feel differently. Nothing is wrong with that.

[@_AriseChicken]

eh thats the one thing i agree with, sure this kid is an absolute moron. But yeah abby wouldve broken her puppy instincts long ago with actual training, saying NO out loud only does so much, then again this is probably becuase the breeder wasnt doing anything to nurture a proper livestock dog.

I think you've proved by talking civilly and in person with Peter that a lot of hostility sprouts from seeing an incomplete picture, and filling in the blanks ourselves with what we fear. People who don't work on farms or have much knowledge about farming don't know all the nitty gritty of the lifestyle, like the vet stuff, and we don't really think about what's _missing_ in a video, or a sentence. We're far more interested in the surface level updates. But for someone like Peter - fellow farmers - the missing info is concerning. They doubt the necessary things are being done at all, which is a valid concern! I hope that viewers (in general) understand that we'll never see the entire picture of someone's life, or farm, without actually _being there_ in the thick of it. That should be okay too. We should be allowed to not show our whole life, bare ass naked out there for the world to see and judge to its liking. All that said, I'm glad you could find someone who had some good-faith beef with you to talk it over with. Peter seems like a genuine fellow, and I wish him and his family the best! Looks like he's occupying a beautiful corner of the world, out there living the kind of life he's found real joy in - in essence, the dream!

Idk what these ppl are talking about honestly if anything this channel has taught me how to fail. Personally I was so scared to fail that I couldn’t do anything but watching goldshaw farm grow and seeing how Morgan is consistently changing to farm from good and bad experiences really teaches you failing isn’t always bad.

[@patriciamccool5243]

This was awesome! Thanks for letting us be a part of your therapy session!

[@okamigekido]

I want you to know that, no matter how "imperfect" you are, you show you really try your best and you treat your fellow people + animals with the love and respect they deserve. Even the people who try to make you seem like a bad, uncaring, self absorbed person-are still treated with some sort of respect from you and that's not something most people do. You show a lot of maturity in what you say and do and THAT'S what makes you so inspiring! When you make mistakes, you clear things up (even if it wasn't your fault). You take accountability in places other people wouldn't. When you have a troubled animal, you say you're already dedicated to them BEFORE any problems are disclosed to you. It doesn't change your mind. And you're ALWAYS trying to put morals first. You're a good man despite what people are trying to stir up about you for attention. Keep up your work, even if other people try to bring you down! I love seeing what you post. ^^ Edit: One last thing! I just wanted to point out how every person has mocked him for caring about every single animal on his farm to make sure that, even if they're going to be "turned into food", he still cares about their livelihood and well being while they ARE here on this earth. That's a quality more farmers need. Just because they're going to be "killed" in the future, doesn't make their well-being any less important in the now while they're still here. Thank you for being different. Thank you for being a good person, to your animals and others : )

[@marikotrue3488]

Kudos for contacting and interviewing Peter the Farmer. He does seem like a nice guy. To be honest I had wondered why I never see veterinary work on this series. I just assumed it was going on as all the creatures (great and small-->shout out to James Herriot, author and veterinarian) seem happy and healthy. I highly doubt many of these really angry outliers are actually angry. There are using Gold Shaw Farm (and probably other popular You Tube series) for content. BTW Jonny Wanzer does an excellent imitation of a Troll out to garner views not acquire knowledge. Great video !

I always enjoy the content, I can see you have an education and background in customer service in making your videos. When I was a kid, we had chickens and a couple ducks, a milk cow, horse.. so when we moved to the city we gladly left those "chores" behind for city life. Now I long for a few chickens in the backyard. Learning again as I watch you is making me rethink everything.

[@4BWVan]

I would actually like to see Peter do a KZbin channel to showcase his own style of farming. He seemed like a smart, cool guy

[@MrIrondog55]

Had a look through the content and can see why some get a bit riled. Peter, he's lovely, with being an engineer he is just very precise and straight to the point. Looks like you got on great, learned some things and made a new friend. Much respect to how he treats his animals as well. With the milk operation he takes part in he's definitely a passionate soul. Also, he loves his big guard goat, what a cutie. As for Johnny, I watched his vid thinking "is this a parody?" and the more it went on I realised what it was... The "Butch isnt very good at controlling his dogs" thing cracked me up. Now, the main tiktokker Space Cadet Arse, or whatever he calls himself, isn't really in for contributing any positive point of view. He flat-out lied to get you on his facebook show, mentioning he had a solution to the hound hunters. To extrapolate things further, her REALLY likes to twist words to get an argument his own way. As an older person, I've seen this style of arguing many, many, times in the past. He said you did not believe hound hunting should be banned. However, the post you had was in Vermont only, and nothing to do with people on private land. Also, the way he conducted himself in the interview, I'm not surprised you shut it down. He was desperately point-scoring or trying to cause argument when none necessary. You did the right thing. When called to quell other viewers points of view, you dodged a loaded shell from a possible tiktok video "Morgan berates his fans". I'm not going to mince words here. SCA isn't really about discussion, especially when he starts name-calling in his videos and hanigng onto (albeit clickbaity) titles of videos to try and weasel his point across. Way I see it is that he is threatened that a similar channel is doing just as well as he is. Seems the only way he's doing this is for clicks. There's no financial or social benefit from insults. Also, a message if he is watching (I ain't gonna waste time to creat a tiktok account soley for this, or add to his views/algorithm) for someone wanting to use a stick of integrity to beat someone with; "How about you conduct yourself in a sensible and professional manner towards other human beings? You're more likely to get a positive response and less likely to come across as a douche." Enough said on the matter. Moving on.

[@animemusicluver1]

[@Karmacranes]

amen. SCA honestly just sounds like a kid who had his toys taken away from him and is having a tantrum in his tiktoks, its a shame as he is getting funds from the tiktok creators fund form this. its slimly weasly and clickbaity. I would honestly still tell tiktok as I'm sure this borders on harassment and bullying on SCA's behalf.. ( not to mention deformation and slander/libel). but that's my 2 cents on it.

[@wwpark]

Kid got bullied at school and clearly doesn’t realise he was part of the problem. He was bullied cos he’s a douche and now he’s trying to do the same thing online.

[@Iris-zq5mq]

My son has a YT channel and other creators (I use the term loosely) ride off the coattails of his channel as well. They like to create drama where there is none for the sake of creating their own $$ It’s not the first nor the last. His is a gaming channel but these trolling predictable KZbinrs are all the same. Their content basically is nonexistent and stale. Morgan has enough subscribers, views and sponsors where he is doing well. These others will fade away eventually bc followers who like this drama get bored and move onto the next. A mature intelligent adult who has a real interest,like Dairy Farmer, in the welfare of animals, would actually take the time and do an educated discussion/meeting.

[@jenniferhoaglin566]

This is why I love this Channel. Honest. Straight Forward. No BS.

[@cherylclark5975]

Tell him to “ pull his head in” it’s obvious that you are trying so hard to learn how to be a really good farmer…..I like how you analyse everything that you do and say….you have mentors that you call on to give you advice …..and you listen and learn..and that other “wacko” he’s not even worth a mention….you are doing a great job..I love your shows and at 71..I’m learning so much ..thankyou Morgan

[@wintershock]

It’s nice to see things like this. I feel like a lot of conflicts can be solved through communication and the interaction with you and Peter proved that. Obviously there are people who will refuse to see you eye to eye and hear you out but those people are often unwilling to admit their own faults.

[@KitsuneTheFighter]

Watching you meet Peter was so fascinating! On the internet it feels like you get such a one-sided view of a person - whether in a comment or a video. But seeing you two meet face to face and actually finding out how similar you two are (and the similar paths your lives took) was a delightful surprise!

[@HD6SOCCER]

I’m not watching this channel for any type of farming knowledge or info, this is straight entertainment and a little bit of knowledge gained from experience. It’s just cool to see a random lifestyle

[@SerenityForschen]

Dude, in nearly every video you say often "I'm no expert" "I'm learning" and you came from the big city, you have been honest about your asperations. Most farmers don't get a formal education, they either grow up on a farm or learn from other farmers. And yeah your titles are click bait. It's the internet that's kinda expected.

[@andreaacosta272685]

Exactly, Morgan has always said since the beginning that he’s learning and he takes accountability over his mistakes (which is hard for some people to do). I don’t understand why these yeehaw people feel entitled to criticize him when he’s mentioned it in 99.9% of his videos he’s no expert. He’s constantly trying to educate himself.

Morgan. You doing this takes some massive balls. I don't know how to phrase that anymore politely, because any other phrase just wouldn't drive home how bad ass it is that you sought these individuals out. Not only actively trying to better yourself, and see yourself from other people's point of view and understand WHY they see you that way, but going out of your way to meet and talk to them. That's insane. I can't imagine how difficult this was mentally and emotionally. Well done. This video was a roller coaster of feelings. Congrats on the new additions to the farm. Hope you and your wife are enjoying that farm life 🥰 It looks beautiful

This is amazing how inevitable KZbin drama is. Here's a farmer guy, who makes fun videos about his chickens and geese, and yet it STILL comes to him! I say what the hell? Looks like some people will try to attack you no matter WHAT you're doing! This is ridiculous. The most non controversial channel if I've ever seen one. Morgan is humble. Always emphasizes that he's only learning, never pretending to be a pro, always exploring, trying new things and yet this stupid comment about how "Ohh, Morgan thinks he's some sort of expert!!!" just keeps reappearing. How??? Where? He never said he was an expert in anything in these videos. This is ridiculous. I guess some people just need drama.

Make sure you take care of your own mental health, especially how we can get bombarded by all this stuff from the internet.

Integrity is everything, and you got it, so (easy for me to say) ignore the haters, and reach out to those who might make a difference, like the dairy farmer.

Morgan, in spite of all the negative talk that crops up from some folks, I for one, really enjoy your content. It is one of the bright spots in my day. the fact that you are able and willing to try to talk to your critics, that you show raw emotion, that you admit when things didn't go to plan just makes you a better person. as to the vet care one way you could sort of incorporate it into your videos is to set it up doing your normal daily routine and then break away from it saying "ah the vet is here for ___" and that you will catch us up on what went down. or you could always say something about needing to rush through the chores as the doc should be there at X time. that way you are alluding to the fact that goes on while still respecting the docs request to not be in any of the videos.
