VEGETABLE FARMING IN 2022 WHATS IT LIKE?

[@lisapochecalhoun]

When I was a kid in the late 60s and most of the 70s, my dad used to plant potatoes in his huge garden (I'm the baby of eight kids.) He had a hand that was our potato cutter. When I was about 10, my pony got out and nearly made himself sick eating the seed potatoes. Since I was not yet in the habit of closing the pasture gate securely, and I was the reason my pony was out, I got to be the seed cutter. My pony lived, so did I, and I never left the gate open again. It's a good memory that has me smiling just thinking about it.

Grandpa seems so cool 😎. I RESPECT him a hard worker.

[@jenmailsouth4155]

Ditto

[@teresaholland4790]

Yep us old people we still got it Nana cheers Central Florida

[@teresachase47]

Great job getting ready to feed the people. I really like your farm, and your whole family. God bless.

[@theveggieboys]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@lenorebritton4973]

Andrew, Callie is growing and I just want to thank you and your family for allowing us to be a part of it. I know it must be hard to stay upbeat when a camera is always in your face but your family are champions in my book. Stay safe and more video with the girls.

[@theveggieboys]

You are welcome

[@kens.3729]

We just Love ❤️ hearing Grandpa Yelling Out at the end of the video, “I Can’t Find My Pants”. 👖 or Slippers. 👞

[@Txnative7]

I have a lot of respect for our farmers! It's hard work putting food on the tables of America!

[@PjMeh]

Drone footage reminds me of Busch's Baked Beans, "Roll that beautiful bean footage." Only now it's, "Roll that beautiful Veggie Boys drone footage!"

[@karenearly1589]

You know, the drone footage with music- almost like a standing ovation to American farmers! God bless them all! ❤️

[@carolynwarren4741]

You All are all such hard workers and I love the way you all work together. I enjoyed seeing Joel Back with you guys. I love watching every video and I wish you well with all your crops.

[@GAPeach58]

Great job, Andrew. I just love the look of a freshly plowed & planted field; all those dark & neat straight rows; a sight. I'm really liking the drone footage; it gives us an idea of where the planted land is in relation to the farm & the horse stables. God bless your family with a great & plentiful veggie season. 🌽🌽🌽🌽🍆🍓🍠🍉🍅🍅🌶🌶🌶

[@alanphillips7253]

Love your videos, thank you Andrew for sharing your farm, and to all your lovely family, best wishes from a retired veg grower in the UK

[@plankface]

I go into a trance when I see first “we have sweet corn” sign of the year 🌽💛💚 kudos !!!

[@robertdunn7756]

When you said rhubarb pie it brought tears to my eye that is my favorite pie in the whole world and my aunt used to make it for me and unfortunately she is not able to anymore I had not had a piece of rhubarb pie and probably four or five years

[@gloriadavidson8599]

The drone shots are beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ There's something about planting the potatoes and the and prepping for sweetcorn that's really satisfieing . Great video again 👍👍👍 love from the UK x

[@mikesimpson6817]

This was a packed video, you guys worked your butts off. Great job

[@kens.3729]

Now how many Viewers knew you Plant Potatoes 🥔 to Grow Potatoes ? 🥔 This is a Learning Channel for Families. 👍

[@Kathy_Higginbotham]

@Andrew, I agree! There is nothing better than fresh sweet corn!! I truly love it and I freeze every time I can get some in a bulk quantity! It's just the best now run go get Grandpa his pants!! LOL! God bless you all

[@susannahlance4437]

I've never seen a potato cutter machine !! Too cool!! Thanks for all of you, working so hard !!!

[@gloriacoffey4651]

Very interesting 🤔. Didn’t know there were so many types of planters. And happy to see the biodegradable mulch. Good video, great family.

[@sherryrobinson9602]

Oh Noooooo Callie hid grandpa's pants😀! Boy did you guys plant a lot of corn and potatoes. It is amazing that how from the beginning of the year in the greenhouses to the field how busy a farm really gets. Am so glad that that younger people lie yourselves have stayed on the farm. Thank you for farming and filming what all goes into growing our food.

[@cheryladams7945]

I think about my grandpa and young uncles how hard they worked with two work horses and two plows. You are so blessed to have this modern equipment ☺️ sure makes life easier. Your veg's are beautiful. Good work

[@claireperalta3743]

It's a great job and so educational.. So excited to share with my grand daughter. So nice to see such productive farm of yours. GODBLESS VEGGIE and GIRLS

[@pauletteschiowitz8989]

They should teach this stuff in schools. Maybe they should put out a video? It amazes me how they know the scientific info, really interesting. I wish I lived down the street from them. I’d be there every day even just for fresh herbs.

[@carrols.hawkins7770]

The fields look beautiful as seen in the fly-over. The tables of plants and flowers are beautiful as well. Matthew has a sunburn. All the guys are in tee shirts except Gavin. How hot does the temps get before Gavin sheds his sweatshirt? I look forward to seeing everyone in the bright yellow-green tees. Even Callie needs one. 😊😊😊

[@kens.3729]

Drone Footage is Excellent. A Completely Different View and gives your Viewers a more accurate representation of the scope of your Operation. 👍🙏

[@robins5880]

Great job explaining everything. Love the drone shots

[@paulabrown5685]

I bet all of you like seeing your work from the drone’s point of view. I blesses me to see the wonderful farming and family pulling together! God bless you all.

[@lisam145]

Thank you for letting us be apart of your family.

[@halinawiecek2297]

It's so pleasure watching you guys always busy and the little one she's so cute, you guys never argium always working so good together,

[@jenmailsouth4155]

Andrew, dude, you need to plant a few okra to try it out. You will love it. Its delicious fried whole, baked, boiled, pickled... I always grow Clemson Spineless but I hear Star of David is really good.

[@chronos401]

Most northerners have no idea what to do with okra let alone have a taste for it.

[@jenmailsouth4155]

@@chronos401 I have loved that stuff since I was little.

[@dugel3]

Okay Andrew, you finally did it. I did vegetable farming for over 40 years so pretty much everything you guys do is familiar to me. Except we didn't do many potatoes and I have actually never seen a machine like you had that cut the large seed potatoes! Pretty cool. In your intro sometime you should have Callie moving her lips and have someone do a voiceover saying "I'm Callie"!

[@mjay4700]

I love all the machinery.. Not only a device to plant the potatos that pre-fertilizes too, but then there's a machine just for sorting and cutting larger potatos.

[@jiggsborah7041]

Thanks for your posts. I really like to see the world you live in. You give me hope. In a world gone mad at least I can watch NORMAL people living a normal healthy family life. I'm also a grampa and a diesel mechanic. Well done. God bless you and your beautiful family and give Baby 👶 ❤ a big kiss from us all.

[@lennonroberts1823]

It's so nice to see you again love your videos 📹keep them coming greetings from Trinidad 🇹🇹and Tobago in the Caribbean 🇹🇹

[@bobforgas8420]

The drone footage was exceptional. Very nice.

[@lilal3753]

Funny how relaxing it is to watch you boys work.

[@susankronwall7054]

Those panoramic shots of the farm fields and hillsides is spectacular. Germination greenhouse is getting empty, are we done starting seeds? Hey Grandpa...you got a gorgeous family...or should I be giving the shout out to Grammy. After all she puts on a great spread for lunch everyday. Already waiting for Saturday's video. God bless you all.

[@ahamdalawad4077]

عندكم الات ماهي عندنا ومعدات زراعية متطورة

[@LR-xx5ig]

Good job glad your doing lots of videos. Love watching them

[@RRaucina]

What a paradise! Perfect mix of woods and fields, as nature intended. When you get to Kansas or Montana it's mostly just dirt to the horizon, 360 degrees. Nice planter!

[@danielhartwig6333]

Those doing tractor work could have lunch box if required! ❤️ you all eat together as family 👍

[@rivfarm2628]

God bless you all! I’m watching you guys since day 1 on KZbin! Wish you all the best and a good vegetables year! Stay safe! 👋🏼🚜👨‍🌾

[@carolschedler3832]

Love the drone footage! Love to see your wholesome family nailing it! Love to see what Grammie makes for lunch! ❤️❤️❤️ OH! Would love to see seed starting!

[@parnellbeth]

In light of current food shortages, rumors of future shortages, etc it makes one really appreciate all the effort your family puts in not only growing food but the plants you sell enabling others to grow their own food. I know you try to keep your channel pretty light hearted, but do you ever feel the need to address the whole food security issue? That if people would consider some form of home preservation they would not be so dependent on the grocery stores....

[@captainmango1355]

The drone shows how you have nice straight rows! It's a great day to be a "veggie boy!" (And girl!) Thanks, Andy, for sharing!

[@lets_go_see_]

You and your whole family are truly blessed. Never think for a moment that you wish you were somewhere else. Although the days may be long and the work seems repetitive, you are a vital link to the existance of men, women and children whom you will never meet. Thank God for farmers!

[@vickirae561]

Thank you so much for working so hard to feed all of us

[@leylaeghbali2271]

Thanks ,love you all💖💖💖

[@wheaties1435]

So much work, but so much variety to what you do each day. That’s cool.

[@jamesbrown8718]

I really enjoy your airial footage of the farm, such beautiful land and you all put every acre to good use. Love seeing all the crops going into the ground. Times are going to get hard for people here very soon I am afraid and God to see you all are growing so much to take care of your community.

[@mariawhite1328]

That countryside is just beautiful!

[@Rosebudd1957]

awesome video- great drone shots.

[@emilasmith4279]

And “grandgirls!” Potato process is amazing.

[@jmcreations1813]

Such hard but satisfying work! I love how the whole family works together to get things done! Also love the drone footage. Y’all keep up the good work! Maybe I will have the privilege of visiting the Farm Market one day! God bless!

[@beverlyrobertson6796]

GOD BLESS THE FARMERS AND RANCHERS AND FISHMAN. 🇺🇲 AND THAT IS HARD WORK. I KNOW.

[@Tonetwisters]

Wow. What a great drone shot at around 8:35! Hard to beat good corn on the cob!!

[@kathrynpatrick69]

If you did a customer edition color of the ochs shirt you all wear, I would buy one and I’m sure many others would too! I can’t come visit the farm market but I’d definitely rock one of your simple shirts while I garden and go about my day!!

[@domapema8373]

Totally enjoy the drone shots and accompanying music! Love the rest of the video too.

[@firstlast5681]

[@dc0145a]

thanks Andrew for taking us along. Learned something new; I thought all potatoes had to be cut before planting. Another great video. Happy spring

[@jenmailsouth4155]

So cool watching you guys. All the mechanization in this video was neat! Gavin! I believe we need a close up of you without that hat! 😁

[@philedge9610]

So glad you showed potatoes planting wanted to see how it was done

[@lynnwood2076]

It is amazing to see all of the hard work your family does in one day! I love watching your videos and lol gird to them.

[@edmueller2219]

Can't find my pants ! Needs to be a hat or tee-shirt. Love seeing all the work getting done . Good job to all

[@CRAPPIEfishin]

Always looking forward to the videos, I’m actually on vacation in the Dominican Republic watching your video! 👍🏻

[@johnmills186]

And it is one of the few things you can harvest standing up then cut for cow feed.

[@claudiabozzo1635]

Calli is so adorable! I miss those days. Everything looks great in the green houses, market and farm. Enjoyed the drone video. Take care!

[@denisepalmer7624]

Rest up have a great dinner and have a relaxing evening! Thank you Veggie Family!

Thanks for what you do!

[@patriciahusk3428]

Wow, you guys got so much done today!! I just love this time of year!! Pretty soon we’ll be hearing that crunch as you pull the peppers off the plant🤗🤗🤗!

[@michelleblandine]

Hard working family 🤗🤗🤗 from Nairobi, didn't know you can plant a cut potato, thanks for the lesson Andrew 🥰🥰🥰

[@paigesteele4406]

What a busy day !

[@walterradcliffe5639]

Secret, the sweeter the corn the bigger the $. Keep up the good work veggie girls & boys.

[@darleneridgeway7452]

The farm is beautiful! I have watched for about 2 growing years… this family works so hard! I can’t wait until the harvesting starts! I noticed your trees are not leafed out. In SC we have green by April 15…

[@larrbearh2624]

Yes Andrew I’ve got a little spread here in Alabama 12x16 yep it’s big takes me whole 1/2 day to till fertilizer it and plant Tom. Pickling cucumbers and squash I remember in my twenties 65 now helping a friend plant corn and soybeans corn for the cows. Great times and memories thanks Andrew for sharing your times with your family

[@dr.rev.lindabingham]

Blessings to all!

[@EM-mj9nt]

If you ever decide to branch out in to apparel merch, I would like a T-shirt "Where are my Pants!" 🤣🤣

[@gailgaddy5340]

Such a good video. The drone footage shows how beautiful the farm and area beyond, really is there in Pa. Thanks

[@gomezgadgetyeharr9248]

[@tomjeffries58]

The machines you use are fascinating. Very innovative.

[@MrCrossWire]

Loved the aerial shots. More please! From U.K.

[@josephevans5703]

I absolutely love the nuclear plant in the background

[@FinznFowl82]

It's been blowing 20-30 mph sustained winds and gusting 40 plus for 3 days straight now. My garden is haggard... I saw a whole squash plant fly by earlier with the squash, flowers and all.

[@eddiesoto3540]

Great work Great video God Bless America.

[@glorialewis2093]

Hope your day goes well

[@NienaRay]

I love watching the Veggie Boys.

[@georgerydberg4393]

A real farm market is sure labor intensive. Good luck.

[@wildchook745]

I enjoy watching the planting, its therapeutic ....LOL

[@dorothyallen3614]

Amazing machines and farmers!

[@Flowergurl2000]

Reading about biomulches like yours, the shiny side makes it hard for bugs to find the plants too!

[@aleialaw]

The drone shots look fantastic!!!!!!!

[@phyllishalley8972]

Well I learned something new thank you never knew you used whole potatoes to plant potatoes does that make sense? Lol...very interesting 🤔🤔🤔 ty for feeding America 🤗🤗
