I love watching all you videos. Watching how your care for the lambs, ewes and rams is great. There is a respect given to animals that are raised to provide us (humans) with food. I know not all livestock raising is done with as much heart. It goes beyond profits and being a business for you. I also like seeing the John Deer tractors. I am not from the mid-west, however my husband is from Waterloo, IA. His father retired after working for 43 years for John Deer. I loved touring the factory where the large farming tractors are made to order. Best wishes during these crazy times.

I always love wheat harvest! These days I concentrate on the beef cows and closest I get is unloading straw. Once in a while I get to bale straw. 23 years ago I worked a western harvest crew, at the end of that year I didn't think I'd ever want to see wheat again but just today I walked into a field ahead of my brother in the combine and picked a head and husked it just to pop it in my mouth. It tasted GOOD! I love wheat!

So glad the canola went well. It helps to diversify your crops. Good yield. We have lots of canola in Manitoba, not much winter canola though. You can tell I am a livestock person because when I saw the wheat harvest, I thought "great straw". Just like your lambing, spreading out harvest helps labour wise, but makes for a long season. Have a safe and productive harvest.

I live in a farming area in NJ (they don't call us the garden state for nothing!) and I really wish more people would realize just how intense farming is no matter where you are. There is always a lot of work to be done no matter the weather or how you feel. We used to milk cows by hand. Zero degrees and snowing? Got a fever? Guess what, twice a day you get out there and milk. Hay has to be done when ready, as do all crops. Relaxing can be a luxury. You have to love what you do. I get annoyed when you move farm equipment on a road and people in cars get mad because they have to slow down. I could go on, but i just want to say no farmers no food. I love your videos because whether its the sheep or the crops you guys show a little bit what life is like on a working farm. Hopefully those seeing this will come away with a new appreciation of where their food comes from. I know you only show a little of all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes. So thank you for all you guys do! Love you guys! God bless and have a great rest of your harvest! 🐑🚜🌱💜

Yes, even when I was really sick with the flu, in bed, feeling like death, got up, dragged myself to the barns and fed and watered the animals, carried bales of hay to the horses, but was too sick to go to my job in a lab. When it has to be done, you just do it. Broke my wrist once, and still found a way to move bales, carry water buckets and bags of feed with one hand. You care for you animals no matter what.

So cool! I’m not a farmer but the daughter (now 74) of my Iowa farmer dad who grew corn and soybeans. One of my brothers farms in Boone, Iowa,. Dad owned what we called “the home farm” in Spirit Lake, Iowa, and over the years some other towns. He also was a school principle and a college Algebra teacher. Farming was in his blood. I enjoy your vids on sheep farming and crop farming and think it is so fabulous to see a woman do these careers. It is hard work and satisfying sometimes and dramatic other times. The weather is always the top conversation. Your crops look beautiful. My dad would take me out to the farm some evenings after supper (we lived in town) and we’d sit and watch the wind ripple the tops of the fields like they were lakes.
