aTrippyFarmer and his family are back to bring you more farming adventures! In this episode, Andy and the crew are getting close to finishing soybean harvest. With only a handful of fields left to combine, they push the John Deere Combine Fleet to the max to cover as many acres as possible. Without anything going wrong, they easily can finish in another day or two of hard cutting. Andy starts his day by trekking the grain cart back from 40 miles to the west, and they hit harvest almost immediately once he returns. They finish some of their lighter, hillier, and less productive farms, which still produce very well in terms of yield. The John Deere Combines and Tractors perform flawlessly, but Andy deals with some mud issues in his truck. They fly through the mud in a few fields to end a productive day's work, and they only have a few small fields remaining. Thanks for watching!

Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

I sure don’t miss the long hours Andy. I enjoy watching you guys and the progress of the fall harvest.

[@aTrippyFarmer]

They don’t feel as bad when it’s your own crop coming off. I can see why others wouldn’t want to work that long, though.

[@jonrichardson1559]

I worked for a farmer that your Dad reminds me of , at the end of the first day he asked me what I owed him ? "that's the way it was done back then 40 years ago " and I said whatever you decide , and he handed me $3 for a whole day , I told him just keep it I think being with you today was more education than one person should ever have to take !

[@aTrippyFarmer]

Haha my dad is quite the character some days. One thing is certain: he is a workhorse. He gets the work done, which I can respect.

[@allenwalters9068]

That's why we don't do notill anymore. We always said tillage paid off getting crop up better. We're you cutting near the Lerna road area the shortcut to Lakeland looked familiar to me from my days going there in 01 to 03. Wasn't sure took it last year for first time in a long time going to Ford place was shocked at the new houses
