  • Today the contractor is installing roof trusses on the pole barn addition. Meanwhile, I have some sickle bar mowing to do with the Farmall H, Hilarie and I move the second batch of broiler chickens out to pasture, and I grill a chicken for dinner.

    I love your videos, Pete, you inspired me to start making my own farming channel. I love that you were cooking your chicken for dinner right next to your other chickens. Keep up the good work I love your videos.

    The tractor was humming as the grass was cut and the chicks were so happy. The barn extension is moving fast so Pete is happy and Hillary has the chickens in high gear. Alot happening and it was so enjoyable to see but I missed the cows. Thanks Hillary and Pete, so enjoyable!

    Pete, my husband (who's also named Pete after his dad) are about to start a farm in the New England area. We both love watching you and Hillary work together because that's what we do best! He's a mechanic (diesel currently employment wise) & he loves working on everything. We always love when we find out we have more in common! This is our favorite channel! Please don't ever stop posting because we watch every single video you post!

    Sir I am glad your scrapping the stuff lol. It will give you more room for the great things that are coming to bless you and your family. Your son is getting better at filming and drone flying absolutely wonderful to see Henry doing his part behind the scenes. Pete in the future o hope to send you some surprises for your farm to make your families life easier. Love you guys for sharing only the farm life. You have done a most blessed job of taking care of your family and these skills and knowledge will bless them in the endeavors of their life. I myself am very proud of you and you have been a mentor to me of just slowing down and smell the money (flowers ) ( pig poop ) ( cow poop ). A couple of goats may make easier ( on a leash ) to help with the mowing but good grief those monsters just do a great job too. With love from my family to yours we are very proud to know your family through you and the videos and how you have kept it personable but private. I salute you.

    How nice to hear the H running as sweetly as it does. You have the touch with things mechanical. In my younger years, I restored several older tractors. My favorite was the 1928 Rumely OilPull. It would pull a 3 bottom plow and started on gasoline, then switched to kerosene. When working it, the water injection would use as much water as kero. Good times.

    Pete, You said "Now we're cooking with gas" as you cut grass with the sickle bar mower. Is that a saying from your grandfather? When showing me how to do something my grandpa used to say "Now you're cooking with gas in both burners" when I got the hang of whatever he was teaching me. Thanks for triggering old memories; Planting our potatoes for the year today and grandpa loved potato planting day. And you will be happy to know we used a Farmall C and hiller/cultivator attachments to mark rows and hill the potatoes back in the day.

    Hello Pete and Hilary. I Love the farm and the new builds. I can see the new chickens like it also. The new lay out I feel has been on your mind for years. I have that same Weber BBQ, bought one 2002 and though we have a propane BBQ I gravitate to the briquettes. and wood chips. For some reason I feel like chicken for dinner.
