So happy for you ! No more going to town sitting in parking lots uploading videos. Also thank you for the shout out! I wasn’t expecting that. Let Wes know he can call me anytime.
Your MAMA is always with you. She touches you everyday in the morning sunshine falling through the window and the breeze brushing your face as you enjoy your coffee on the porch.
Your MAMA is right beside you. We are source energy and all that have "crossed over" are right beside y'all. I visit with many who stop by to visit ...always reassuring me that they are guiding and "helping". Y'all are WONDERFUL...PRECIOUS TREASURES
Larry is a cow whisperer. All in a day's work. Real life, real drama! I love the fridge pics! Your mom was so pretty. Now I see where you get your looks from. You certainly have your life and family focused clearly.
Love your content, I grew up on a sheep farm in Australia, and watching your beautiful family hard at work reminds me of my upbringing. Good times and hard work. The ups, the downs, but always the family. Keep up the amazing content 👍🏻
Meredith, I love your channel, your farm, your family, and your country lifestyle. You did much better than I could have when showing your mother's photo. My dad also died much too soon at 56 while I was in the Navy and 20 years old. He had a heart attack while on an EKG with four of the best heart doctors in Kansas City standing next to him. In 1967 CPR was not known.
I have said a prayer for you and your family for you to get the rain you need and want for your crops and the grass! I wish you the best of luck with the rain.
Love seeing your husband on video! Really got choked up when you were talking bout your Mom.I lost my Mom 3 months ago and my healing process is a roller coaster right now.Love watching your videos & I can't stop doing that cow call now,it is stuck in my head
Your husband is the model for the "Good Old Boy" and I mean that in the best possible way. A palm leaf hat, long sleeve wrangler shirt & jeans are the official dress of the cowboy. Also mumbling when you talk is expected. I'll also bet he isn't much on having his picture taken?? Thank you for the tour & some history of the farm, I loved it. Seeing Ur kitchen & mementos was a special treat that warmed my heart. Long live the cowboy way & John Wayne...🤠 P.S. absolutely great video.
Omg, your channel is amazing, I am in love with your story of life on a farm , especially being in N.C. I had commented on one of your channel which was the first one I've watched of your, that my Grandparents lived on a farm in northern Missouri by the Iowa border. I had kins on my step father's side that lived in N.C. and I have always had a soft spot for Carolina Tarheels… I could see myself being a regular on your channel now that I discovered you. God Bless.
I asked my grandpa that same question one time because like Lawrence he wore bibs and long sleeves year round. His answer was the same😊 Live your channel cause I grew up very similar to how you live and the memories bring so much joy to my heart!!
Wesley, thank you for allowing your mama to share you and your world with me. I grew up a wide eyed country boy over here in Wake County so I can so relate to your world. when those two dogs jumped into that Suzuki with you they were yelling just how much they love you Meredith. thank you so very much for sharing your part of my precious North Carolina with all of us.
your husband is my kind of man, wears what suits him, pretty much does what he wants, a hard worker to keep the place running and really doesn't give a hoot or dam what other people think. dam near a 24 7 thing when you have livestock.good luck to you and your family. love jim akcanfive
It must be a blessing to wake up in the morning and go to the restroom to wash your pretty face and see your momma. You look sooo much.like your momma. I feel your pain though because my momma's my angel now too after passing on many years ago. The pain is still there on a daily basis. God bless and stay happy. That's what your momma would want .
Farmer's prayer, Lord gives us rain, a little luck, and we'll take care of the rest... All real famers wear long sleeves and big boy paints year round. Next to the snakes and skeeter's, a little heat doesn't seem so bad. Put up some cams and you'll see them all the time. I've got a 3 legged Coyote (missing left rear leg) that makes it rounds here almost every night. Hi tomorrow is 73.. Best John Wayne movie, Big Jake.
I learned to drive a mule to a wagon, hay rake, one bottom plow, etc (drive?) on our farm until we bought our first Farmall. Lotsa fun. And wore the same clothes for the same reasons. God bless you and your family.
Mer,they dont make women like you no more,your husband is a lucky man,and you got 2 sweet kids love you show ,I lost my wife at 37 yrs old with cancer,she was alot like you ,love you guys I have a positive attitude now about things. Because of you,I learner a lot from you,keep up the good work and keep smiling,
My grandfather would never even roll up his sleeves,just stubborn,did't acknowledge heat or cold,tough times,dry years or poor crops just kept going forward,the farmer way I guess.
So sorry for your loss I know you must have heard this so many times but at least she didn't suffer and I can see that you have your mom's beautiful looks you and your family keep safe ❣️
The more sun hitting the skin makes it hotter long sleeves is cooler you better get out and do the rain dance before your corn Fry's up LoL 😂 😂 very nice video Big like I love corn on the cob keep it up
Have to agree with LB on the shirt deal an old farmer told me years ago that what keeps out cold will keep out heat GOD BLESS THE farmers in the USA 🇺🇸
Your mother looked like an lovely lady. Sorry you had to lose her so young. My mum passed away a couple of weeks ago and I have to do the eulogy next week. I’ve written it but every time I try to read it I struggle to finish it. It’s hard.... Even though I worked with my dad, I think I will miss my mum more, as she was always there for us. Lovely video again. Thanks Meredith.
Oh no, I'm so sorry Mark! :( It's so hard to lose a parent, I'm so sorry you've now lost both. I read at my mom's funeral and I think God really just got me through it. Hugs and prayers to you. xx
Awesome video of everything happening there. At my farm we have gone from too wet to can't by a rain. Just finished my first cut hay about 60 days late. I understand the loss of your mom. My mom passed away at the same age.
The neighbors tobacco field ... that must be Virginia because I thought after jesses helms passed 🙏🏻🙏🏻😭😭😫😫😔😔 NC was barred from even mentioning tobacco let alone grow it
Loved the video. John Wayne was a hero to me when growing up. Sorry about your mom. She looked happy. My wife passed from cancer when she was only 57. She was the best. She said damn twice in 30 years of marriage and took care of everyone.
No disrespect intended..BUT I thought that was your father... As Attractive as you are I was shocked!! Bless you for just wanting a good man and not going for a jock or studly looking guy. You have given us older men hope ... You have such a Sweet personality pretty voice and are incredibly Lovely!..I absolutely Adore you😍
@@ThisFarmWife_After watching more videos and getting to see more of Your husbands personality, learning his background growing up, work ethic and all the knowledge of equipment livestock and farming.. he is Really cut from a different cloth .. a very impressive man to say the least. So awesome to see you 2 running that farm. Thanks for sharing your experiences on the Farm all that nature and scenery is so beautiful to see.
My Gramma said about peoples stupid, unwanted comments.....if you get poop ( well she said S...) on your sheets don’t rub it, you’ll smear it...just hang it out and when the sun gets hot it’ll just fall off.
Thanks for sharing the picture and story of your Mom, Mere. After seeing it, one can easily see where you got your beauty from. . .!!!! Hope some of that East Coast rain is finding its way to your area today!!!
We met when I was selling livestock feed, then he helped me with a horse I was afraid to ride after breaking my arm. Th rest is history. That was 15+ years ago
Mator sammichs are the best! Your Mother was a beautiful lady. Now we know where your good looks come from. Sorry about your mom. My mom has been gone now for 33 years and I still miss her. Pictures are the faces of our past. The Duke is the best! Here’s hoping y’all get rain soon!
I love watching your videos! I am writing on my wife of 43 years, (July 16th), page. We both grew up on farms and ranches, Montana (me) Oregon (her) and I can totally relate to your lifestyle. Robert Douglas
He is very correct, a working man knows how to justify what we need to feel comfortable, not a church day to impress any one. Keep up the good work...enjoying this
i love it... all of us Gwinns wear cloths that are warn out. they are comfortable its what we wear too. that is so cool they follow your husband knowing he feeds them. aww prayers to your mother
The farmer is lucky to have married a woman 20 years younger than himself or at least it looks that way.Your family and life is awesome and I love the videos!!
Hopefully y'all get some rain soon. Will keep you in my prayers. Here in Ohio it rains just about twice a week sometimes more. It was the end of June when we got our first cut of hay in. Wishing everyone all the best and thank you for sharing another great tour of your farm.
This is a awesome video ! You depict the country life to a T.... I love the age gap between you and your husband it shows true love don’t have to be based off a number ! Beautiful and great video as usual !
Without sounding goofy, I'm so glad I discovered this channel, you always inform, keeping it light at the same time, love seeing all your acreage, buildings and equipment, I always end up feeling better, thanks for sharing another slice of your life
Super Great video Meredith ! I think it's the Best one since I've been following you're channel . I am close if not a year older than you're husbands age and I remember our garden being plowed with a mule, 4 legged not a UTV Lol . Thanks for the tour of the farm you have a Very nice place. People in the city don't know what their missing out on in life, it's the Little thing and the Simple things in life that mean the Most !!! ... PS Thanks for honoring my request :) Meredith you Reilly Rock !!! ... you're husband is 1 Lucky man ... you GO girl.
Keep working on the farmer and you will have him singing and dancing in another six months. The picture you posted the other day of the two cows eating from the trough and the scowl on the one cow face is priceless. Keep up the good work.
Hi Meredith, I am more than impressed with your channel, lifestyle and family. You are blessed and in sharing bless others. Diversity in farming is a very important part of farming now and I hope it is working how you hoped it would. I’m in Australia in the state called New South Wales. In a town called Goulburn. I live on a 600 Ha sheep farm and help out the owners and am hoping to own my own small farm in the future. I’m 48 and my wife is 55 and unfortunately unwell and unable to help all the time. The way that you tell your story resonates with me and gives me hope that I will achieve my goals. I watch a lot of American homesteading TH-cam channels and coincidentally they are all from North Carolina. I would love to live there with you all except for the humidity. Again thank you for being you and sharing your life, it is more appreciated than you know.
Thanks for tuning in from Australia, David! I'd love to visit there one day. The humidity here is pretty gross, but the rest of the year makes up for it. ;) Thanks for being here!
Hey Meredith, hope yall got some rain today! We sure did. You should have gotten the same front that came across here. I am so sorry about your mom. So young too! You just don't never know when your time is up. This was a good video, really enjoyed it! Hope you and your family have a great day!
You have to watch skin cancer people. I worked in the sun a lot 30 years ago getting sunburn on my bottom lip ...now I have an anomalies on my lip that needs surgery. No body bothered much on time....I be happy to keep my bottom lip. Love your channel Miss Merdi. Now we know the shirt mystery 👌👌 Keep Smiling Possums from Jeff and Ella in Australia
Good evening Merdie and your husband always love the riding around on Y’alls Farm and the history 🤠 Sorry for the loss of your mom I can relate because my mom passed when she was 45 and it saddens me because my 3 daughters and son never got to meet there grandma. Love y’all 😘
Just found your channel and am currently bing watching your videos. I love the closeness of your family and how you and your husband work together. Also love your faith and trust in God. You’re an amazing family. My brother in law has a small farm in Georgia and I love working with him...very satisfying.
Your husband is so right to wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants working in the summer air. I usta also wrap a towel around my neck too, to suck up my sweat under my long hair. I looked crazy, but I felt so cool working in that hot sun!!
The small gate you were showing. We had one just like it on the farm. I do like tomato sandwich but I love butter, wheat bread, with onion! Thank you for sharing your life and family. Glad you know Christ and include God in your video's. You are so best, and are a blessing to me and others. Howdie, from Central Indiana.
Much enjoyed the farm tour . Your husband is right that long leaves in cotton are better in summer. The older the shirts the more comfortable on a hot day. Tell the farmer I use , used dental floss to sew my shirts and work pants when they get holes. The sew job holds up longer. I also plowed a mule when I was a boy. We had a lot of mules for the logging and farm. I still love the smell in a tack room with harness and saddles. We had several river places and big rains required us to ride horses to get the cows up to the barn. Thanks for showing your walls and pictures. Your mom was good looking and sweet looking as well. Thanks for sharing your life on the farm with us. I miss those days and your videos bring it back to memory. Jim, TN
Banjo Benson , I grew up in rural America during the 40's and 50s. We had mules for farm work and logging in the 40s and early 50s and they were replaced in the 50s however the mules continued to live on our farm in retirement until they died. Mules were still used for gardens and by some farmers who could not afford a tractor. As a young boy I would work with some of the older farm hands and they would let me plow. I was not strong enough to plow a straight row so my plowing was limited to the kindness of the workers who let me have the experience because I would ask. I remember an occasion when I was a young teen ager watching our log crew trying to haul a load of logs up a hill. My father had the Cat operator pushing from behind the truck and when that was not enough my father had some workers hitch a team of huge mules in front of the truck and the combination of the truck, the Cat pushing behind and the mules got the load of logs up the hill to the gravel road. I remembering struck by the event as I watched my father as he took over the huge mules and coaxed them to pull with out any force but simply talking to the mules. I never saw that again on our farm or in the woods with the loggers. Forgive the long answer and thank you for the query. Jim
I had a shirt like his and it was so thin from all the wear that it was actually pretty cool in the summer, it finally got tore up to much to wear. I had forgotten about it until now. Lol. Thanks
Meridith this is your chance to talk Lawrence into getting you a drone LoL, I have to agree with his shirt (air-conditioning) .. I took my kids shopping for clothes and they wanted to buy jeans with holes already in them, $100+ I about lost it, I have a lot of pride in the holes in my clothes LoL and I'm so happy the pool noodle is still working LoL
Thank you so very much for sharing those beautiful heartfelt stories about your lovely family and your mom.
So happy for you ! No more going to town sitting in parking lots uploading videos. Also thank you for the shout out! I wasn’t expecting that. Let Wes know he can call me anytime.
Oh my goodness....when you can get your hubby to start talking he’s so cute! I love his comments
Your MAMA is always with you. She touches you everyday in the morning sunshine falling through the window and the breeze brushing your face as you enjoy your coffee on the porch.
A very lucky farmer. And I'm not talking about the crops.
What are you talking about Larry?, now don't be shy lol.
I thought he was her Father:(
So Sorry for the loss of your mama at such a young age, I'm all to familiar to the pain that lasts a lifetime. Lost my daddy when I was 7
We love Lawrence. I could shoot the farm stories with him and a cold ice tea for sure. He's right you do stay cooler
Yes, you could!
Todd Reynolds
- I'm 61 almost 62 and I could sure enjoy spending time talking North Carolina farm life with Lawrence. man's got history to share.
Hope your getting your rain last night/today. We are

Your husband is the model for the "Good Old Boy" and I mean that in the best possible way. A palm leaf hat, long sleeve wrangler shirt & jeans are the official dress of the cowboy.

Kinda looks to me like your husband robbed the cradle. He is one lucky man.
@@ThisFarmWife_ Meredith, my dad wants to know if Lawrence's back gives him trouble? We say it does because my dad's walks/stands like Lawrence.

PS Thanks for honoring my request :) Meredith you Reilly Rock !!! ... you're husband is 1 Lucky man ... you GO girl.
Thanks Robert! You're welcome. I'll try to share more like this.
Keep working on the farmer and you will have him singing and dancing in another six months. The picture you posted the other day of the two cows eating from the trough and the scowl on the one cow face is priceless. Keep up the good work.
Haha, thanks. I'm working on him !
I loved John Wayne as well. Have several pictures of him. Thanks for sharing the farm and buildings that was really fun. Take care❤️‼️👍👍
We love The Duke here!
Hi Meredith, I am more than impressed with your channel, lifestyle and family. You are blessed and in sharing bless others. Diversity in farming is a very important part of farming now and I hope it is working how you hoped it would. I’m in Australia in the state called New South Wales. In a town called Goulburn. I live on a 600 Ha sheep farm and help out the owners and am hoping to own my own small farm in the future. I’m 48 and my wife is 55 and unfortunately unwell and unable to help all the time. The way that you tell your story resonates with me and gives me hope that I will achieve my goals. I watch a lot of American homesteading TH-cam channels and coincidentally they are all from North Carolina. I would love to live there with you all except for the humidity. Again thank you for being you and sharing your life, it is more appreciated than you know.
Thanks for tuning in from Australia, David! I'd love to visit there one day. The humidity here is pretty gross, but the rest of the year makes up for it. ;) Thanks for being here!
Hey Meredith, hope yall got some rain today! We sure did. You should have gotten the same front that came across here. I am so sorry about your mom. So young too! You just don't never know when your time is up. This was a good video, really enjoyed it! Hope you and your family have a great day!
Thanks! Back at you.
Them clothes are comfortable . We all got them , anything for comfort .
You have to watch skin cancer people. I worked in the sun a lot 30 years ago getting sunburn on my bottom lip ...now I have an anomalies on my lip that needs surgery. No body bothered much on time....I be happy to keep my bottom lip. Love your channel Miss Merdi. Now we know the shirt mystery 👌👌 Keep Smiling Possums from Jeff and Ella in Australia

Good evening Merdie and your husband always love the riding around on Y’alls Farm and the history 🤠
Sorry for the loss of your mom I can relate because my mom passed when she was 45 and it saddens me because my 3 daughters and son never got to meet there grandma. Love y’all 😘
I'm so sorry you lost your mom so young, too. I wish my kids could know their Grandmother, too. Hugs.
You have beautiful place and a beautiful family. 👍👍👍❤️
Just found your channel and am currently bing watching your videos. I love the closeness of your family and how you and your husband work together. Also love your faith and trust in God. You’re an amazing family. My brother in law has a small farm in Georgia and I love working with him...very satisfying.
Thanks Tom!
Great video, from beginning to end. Thank you from Ohio
Thanks for watching!
I grew up on a farm in Minnesota 60 years ago. Love the smell of dirt and fresh hay . I would work the day for free just to get back up on a tractor !
Your husband is so right to wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants working in the summer air. I usta also wrap a towel around my neck too, to suck up my sweat under my long hair. I looked crazy, but I felt so cool working in that hot sun!!
you have my vote as the best vlog on the net .. that drive around the cornfield brushing foliage was fantastic .. i'm still smilin' :)
Thank you for making my night! I was laughing the whole time we drove around it, too lol
I absolutely love your choice of background music. Me and my band played mostly all Country, back in the day!
Thank you!
Very nice memories are there for a reason.,TY for sharing.
The small gate you were showing. We had one just like it on the farm. I do like tomato sandwich but I love butter, wheat bread, with onion! Thank you for sharing your life and family. Glad you know Christ and include God in your video's. You are so best, and are a blessing to me and others. Howdie, from Central Indiana.
Thanks for the kind words and for being here!
Much enjoyed the farm tour . Your husband is right that long leaves in cotton are better in summer. The older the shirts the more comfortable on a hot day. Tell the farmer I use , used dental floss to sew my shirts and work pants when they get holes. The sew job holds up longer. I also plowed a mule when I was a boy. We had a lot of mules for the logging and farm. I still love the smell in a tack room with harness and saddles. We had several river places and big rains required us to ride horses to get the cows up to the barn. Thanks for showing your walls and pictures. Your mom was good looking and sweet looking as well. Thanks for sharing your life on the farm with us. I miss those days and your videos bring it back to memory. Jim, TN
Thanks Jim! No better smell than tack and leather. I appreciate you watching.
Did they still use Mules in the 70's or late 60's ??
Banjo Benson , I grew up in rural America during the 40's and 50s. We had mules for farm work and logging in the 40s and early 50s and they were replaced in the 50s however the mules continued to live on our farm in retirement until they died. Mules were still used for gardens and by some farmers who could not afford a tractor. As a young boy I would work with some of the older farm hands and they would let me plow. I was not strong enough to plow a straight row so my plowing was limited to the kindness of the workers who let me have the experience because I would ask. I remember an occasion when I was a young teen ager watching our log crew trying to haul a load of logs up a hill. My father had the Cat operator pushing from behind the truck and when that was not enough my father had some workers hitch a team of huge mules in front of the truck and the combination of the truck, the Cat pushing behind and the mules got the load of logs up the hill to the gravel road. I remembering struck by the event as I watched my father as he took over the huge mules and coaxed them to pull with out any force but simply talking to the mules. I never saw that again on our farm or in the woods with the loggers. Forgive the long answer and thank you for the query. Jim
I had a shirt like his and it was so thin from all the wear that it was actually pretty cool in the summer, it finally got tore up to much to wear. I had forgotten about it until now. Lol. Thanks
Ha, you're welcome!
Well dang, my wife is from Caswell County and she grew up on a tobacco farm. Salt of the earth people.
How about that?! :D
Your husband is so cool. I wear the same thing he does. It comfortable. Lol
Thank you

Meridith this is your chance to talk Lawrence into getting you a drone LoL, I have to agree with his shirt (air-conditioning) .. I took my kids shopping for clothes and they wanted to buy jeans with holes already in them, $100+ I about lost it, I have a lot of pride in the holes in my clothes LoL and I'm so happy the pool noodle is still working LoL
Thanks Jeff! The noodle is working great :)
