Zach Johnson, the “Millennial Farmer” is a 5th-generation farmer who’s spent his life growing, working, and learning on his family’s farm. His wit and dry sense of humor appeal to children and adults alike. A product of the millennial generation, his appreciation of new technology blends with his old-fashioned work ethic, and he offers a unique ability to deliver his message in a way that resonates with lifelong farmers as well as those with no knowledge of agriculture.

"They got the red stuff moving"
"Supprised its moving" good boy, taught him well.
Lmao I laughed at that one
Hey now
I love him
If Case IH comes out with the greatest tractor of all time, Onyx will refuse to buy one when he takes over the farm. :)
David Messer yeah but that will never happen 😐
He's not even my boy and I got choked up with pride.
Choked up yep, that’s a fact it’s so great to see that Onyx is doing so well. I’m even proud of him!
Glad I wasn't the only one that had the same feeling about him. He really reminds me of my grandson, he had to be next to Pops whenever I was doing any kind of work, he just wanted to learn. We are really missing this today. God Bless this family. RLTW
That little man is feeding my children.... and he's only 10!! Hell yes I'm proud and very grateful
Me too.
He’s a professional grain cart driver his work ethic is better than most grownups now days
Facts!!! Most people want to sit around amd wait for "hand outs"... Great kid, amazing family!!!
I’m 13 and 3 years ago my friend who is a year older than me lives 3 hours away on a pretty big farm well we are raking hay one day and he said he was getting tired and he asked me if I knew how to drive I said yes and we swapped seats well keep in mind this was 3 years ago and I wasn’t as strong back then as I am now and I would push in the clutch and he’d reach over and shift for me and he said compared to his first time bar raking hay I’m very good
I’m sorta proud watching onyx because it brings back memories from my first time driving a tractor
Now I’m actually a very good operator and my uncle bought a tractor and I was the first person to drive it other than the guy that delivered it and he taught me how to use a front end loader I’m really good at unloading equipment with it and digging dirt too
Lucas Drummond it’s a secret he can’t tell us lol
The fact that your son understands that he's driving something that costs as much as a house. He is already mature well beyond his years.
It's a fine family. A very wonderful fine family. Farm life is good for a family.
ONNI
@@puppetsock, but farm life can do two things, strengthen the family bonds, or tear the family apart!
“Surprised it’s moving” yep, he’s your kid.😂
Looks like Grandpa
🤣🤣
😹
That killed me 🤣 🤣 🤣 lmao
🤣🤣 best part of the vid ahaha
Onyx is already making red machine jokes like his dad 👍😂
I think its Onyx.
Green paint cost more than red paint I like my red paint because it cost less than green paint.
I went to go look at a new tractor so I could mow with with a brush hog and the John Deere cost an extra $10,000 more than what the case was I just want something that works and something that I can afford I really don't care who makes it as long as I can afford it
John Chambers oh trust me I have nothing against any farm equipment at all no matter what color it is I just thought it was funny that he’s saying it now too
th-cam.com/video/e3K_LEtRY9Q/w-d-xo.html
Onyx and Mrs Milenial farmer are the stars of this video. Loved her interviewing him.
I don't normally comment. But as a father. You must be very proud of your son stepping up and showing interest in the farm. Really enjoyed hearing some of his thoughts and how he does things. It's all about the kids. The kids are the future and you sir are doing a great job.
When I was around his age I had an interest in our potato farm, but my dad would never let me do anything. I'm kinda jealous of him.
Agreed …
I gotta say, Onyx was the star in this video. The kid is killing it.
6 is a superstar. Keep at it!
I definitely agree with that Statement 100% !!! I remember driving a Grain Cart at 8 yrs old , Many many years back ..
Hi
Onyx the SUPER FUTURE Millennium farmer!
Onyx is the coolest kid, I hope we get to see more of him, after he's finished his homework of course..
"It's not easy, I'll tell ya that" Onyx is a legit farmer
My favorite line of the video!
I can say since I am a type of farmer cause I farm hay and well some things are really not easy but you have to do it to get it done
th-cam.com/video/e3K_LEtRY9Q/w-d-xo.html
Yea I say that every time I’m trying to load the feeder wagon for cattle because you gotta figure out the right amount of grain and food u need
And I can’t even get my 15 and 11 year old boys to clean their room🤦🏻♂️🤣
It was really good to hear Onyx talk about what he was doing. Great young man!
The Mom and Son footage was a nice addition... Like the comment by Onyx "Surprised it's movin"... The apple fell right under the tree right there
Onyx "I'm supprised it's moving"
😂😂😂 omg being roasted by a child is 👌
It goes on all over the world 😄
I laughed out loud when he said that.
Onyx should have his own camera. Going to put you out of business. Great job Dad!
th-cam.com/video/e3K_LEtRY9Q/w-d-xo.html
Oh my gosh it’s amazing he would be interesting to watch too.
Onyx is doing an AMAZING job, especially as young as he is!! Handling that grain cart & tractor like a boss!!! :-)
Hey Zach and Becky. It's going to be pretty awesome to have Onyx's growth as a contributor to the farm documented by vlog. You'll always be able to look back on these moments of pride. Pretty awesome!
Nice to see that the Actor who plays Onyx The Millenial Farmers Boy has seemed to have joined the main cast of Zack "Millenial Farmer", Nate "Dad/Grandpa" and Jim "Mr. Stuck" as a returning character for the Millenial Farmer Franchise
😂😂 I love having something that I actually understand comments like this
Things must be going really smooth, Jim hasn't been fired once this season.
youtube comment of the year
th-cam.com/video/e3K_LEtRY9Q/w-d-xo.html
Don't forget Becky "Mrs. Millennial Farmer". They don't have her on the show enough. They need to write more episodes with her character on-camera.
Onyx is quick to itch a joke like his father lol
I think Onyx is probably listening to Mom a little bit more than Dad but the whole family is getting it done bringing in the sheaves! Way to go Onyx!
Thank You, Becky and Zach! Thank you for sharing your Family and for sharing ~ Farming! Americans need to understand and appreciate Family Farming ~ Our food sources and what it takes to actually feed America! Taking Family Farmers for granted is so counter-productive to our future. May your Family be Safe and Healthy! Best, Doyle & Susie Hughes
95% of American adults couldn't do what Onyx is doing. He's got good awareness about what he's doing.
nice statistics right out of your ass
@Aurimas Sakalauskas it’s the truth people can hardly drive a car these days. As a lot of ppl that watch the channel probably couldnt do it. Gotta think about the ppl who couldn’t even find the dipstick let alone know what it’s used for. And that’s facts I own a grading company you would be surprised of all the “expert operators” if fired because they know nothing but say they are the best.
Onyx is doing a awesome job of keeping up with the combine, being its his 1st year of running the grain cart. Like mom said its always the grain cart fault. I know that feeling Becki as that was my job until we got a semi.
@@robhakeman5873 The X9 is designed for high volume harvesting using multiple grain carts. I bet Onyx will be waiting around when MF goes back to his own combine.
@@robhakeman5873 Just to Know, How Old is Onyx? Because I agree he did quite well, he can do the Auger Job, and I cant even Figure out how to get a tractor moving...(City Guy Here)
Trailer backing tip for Onyx: hold the steering wheel at the bottom. Push left, the trailer goes left. Push right, the trailer goes right. Keep up the good work!
He's a true farmer. Good job raising the kids my man, and you too Mrs. Millennial
I hadn’t commented on Onyx yet. This video really showcased him. Very impressive, young man.
Onyx is paying more attention than anyone knows.
Becky, Onyx is doing a great job. He picked up running the grain cart quickly. Proud moments
The boy knows the value of the your equipment and Deere's good job Mom & Dad.Main man down next generation steps ....proud parents
That was great having Mrs. Millennial Farmer interviewing Onyx. It's nice meeting your family. As a "City Boy," I enjoy seeing how hard working farmers keep us fed. Thanks to all the farmers. You are truly under-appreciated; but not by me. Stay safe in the grain bins.
Xo
He’s a squared away little dude! Good job Mom and Dad👍🏻. I think I can speak for all the followers to say we are all proud of Onyx, he’s doing an outstanding job and his awareness is top notch.
Onix is a prime example of like father like son
It's great that your beautiful wife came out and documented your son driving the cart, it really is a special harvest now that he is in the field with you. I'm proud of your whole family. Stay safe.
Onyx is the image of his grandfather in looks and personality , the apple never falls far from the tree, great to see your boy taking interest and doing an amazing job :-)
If more people taught their kids hard work pays off and values like you guys do. The world would be such a better place. Well done Zack and Becky well done.
also, see the 'honest' type manual labor is not lost with your girls. They both are so willing to help even in stuff we consider not fun
The little guy looks AND SOUNDS like his grandpa!
"I'm surprised it's movin" - Onyx with the Case burn. Love it.
I continue to be impressed with Onyxs' mastery of the grain cart. "Trailer that cost as much as a house", he has his eye on the ball. Nice respect for the equipment Onyx, you are doing great!
Six rocks! Need more kids like him. Responsible with hundreds of thousands of dollars of green machinery. Winner!
Up against a million dollar combine! Yea this kid rocks
Gotta teach "6" to hold the bottom of the wheel when backing up, his brain will takeover the rest and ensure he steers correctly! Works 50% of the time everytime! (really should try it)
Good strategy when learning and getting comfortable
that's how I learned
And don't turn the wheel real fast just slow in puts works well too.
I've actually never heard of that strategy, wish someone would've told me that when I was 16
The other one is "turn toward the danger" when backing.
Dude i love this time of year, when it goes cold to the point where you can't do anything and you can come inside to watch some millennial farmer with the family. Just great
All those "donuts" with the four-wheeler on the gravel outside the shop are paying off. Awareness, reaction, driving skills, etc. all come to bear when driving something else. Good job!
Zach’s gotta “confiscate” the snacks.
Loved seeing Mrs. Millennial Farmer and more of Onyx at the wheel!
Dad tax!
Very BEST video ever. Mrs Mn Farmer riding with her son and chatting. Mom son bonding. That’s another reason why your channel is so amazing.
Love seeing the whole family involved. 6 was raised right! Loved seeing the girls even in there helping. Nothing beats family working together!
Farm families are blessed to work together! I think you'd enjoy our family friendly farming youtube channel County Line Cowpokes th-cam.com/video/KLKvNubyDO0/w-d-xo.html. Our farm can't compete with MF's amazing equipment so our videos include humor that the entire family will enjoy along with beautiful farm scenery including drone footage, and some agriculture education.

The future of the Johnson farm is in good hands. Can tell Onyx loves it
Onxy Impressed the hell out of me! Idk if I could run that thing at his age hats off to you bud you're doing great
Onyx is doing a fantastic job, well done Onyx.
Fabulous job Onyx. You are are a prize. Your parents are as proud as any parent can be. I am 70 years old & I don't think I could do what you are doing. GREAT JOB!!!!! Looking forward to watching you run the combines.
Onyx, You are doing a Great Job. Its Awesome to see our next generation farmers. Best Content of the season.
Your son is really good at driving a grain cart driver tell him I said that he is doing a really good job at it
I found your channel by watching the Stoney Ridge Farmer, being a Minnesotan I am enjoying your videos. I spent most of my life in telecommunications. In the early 1990's for about 3 years I worked on Federal Government agency phone systems, including the Soil Conservatin Service & the Farmers Home Administration. I was the only employee in Minnesota & traveled the whole state. I also covered about 1/3 of Wisconsin. Now retired and watching vids like yours. Thanks for doing what you do.
Awsome to see Mum supporting Onyx doing an excellent job!
What a wonderful farm family! The young man looks just like his grandpa! Farming has changed since I drove tractors 50 some years ago at our small farm in Western Iowa!
I gotta say, Onyx is a really cool intelligent kid.
Wow great video Sir it’s inspiring. Thanks for inspiring me to open my own TH-cam channel. I’m a young farm lady from Africa. Sending you ❤️ and 💡. Thanks for the privilege as always
Wow... Wishing you success darling. African ladies are sure beautiful and a farmer at that
Super happy for you for even having having the courage to start..... You just gained a new sub. Love
Omg she is so pretty. Wishing you success. You deserve all the support you can get. Let's show some love guys.
Wooow. Your channel is amazing. Seeing a young lady do wonders is amazing
Sending this beautiful young lady love and light
Might be my favorite video so far. Great to see Mom getting footage of Onyx driving the grain cart tractor. And seeing the girls pitching in a bit. :)
Oynx even explains what hes doing well like his ole Dad. Like father like son.
So good to see the girls shoveling and cleaning up the corn dust, then to see Onyx out there helping dad! Such a great family moment, and all while giving mom a tour of what he is doing. You both should be so proud! Raising great kids! Totally agree with an earlier comment...”that kid is killin’ it!”
The old man better hope that knee heals quick ! "Hey Gramps, can I show you something behind the barn ?" 'Sure Onyx, hey, what's the hole for....'
It's so cool seeing Onyx running with Zach. I'd bet grandpa is pretty proud of him to just like Zach is
Onyx has become the Rockstar of the farm. He is demonstrating what a great job your family is doing. All Americans could afford to watch your show.
“I’ll tell you that”, you my friend have raised your boy and girls w true grit! You’ve passed on that true proud hard working American attitude that has build our great county! You and your wife should be so proud as I’m sure you are. Love the content keep it up
"6" is doing awesome. How do you fit in the cab your head has to be swelling with pride.
Onyx is doing amazing especially for being so young, he may not feel like hes doing i great but from the videos I say hes doing pretty fricking good, good job Onyx!
Mr & Mrs Millennial Farmer must be so proud!! Well done Onyx !! Awesome !!
I'm just amazed at how old that little man is. Dude is a specimen!
Onyx: I’m surprised it’s moving
Zach: Oh come on now. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Onyx is smart
When did he say that? I somehow overheard it
@@f.r.7693 when Zach was videotaping the case tractor I don’t remember what the video time was
I'm incredibly proud of that kid and he's not mine! Lol! Well done Mom & Dad !
Onyx is a sharp minded young guy! He's going to make a great farmer.
Watching Onyx working with you brings tears to my eyes.....Please cherish every minute of it!!
3:15 Died of cuteness overload. :D
4:08 Awwwww.
8:05 "...costs as much as a house." Onyx has a good head on his shoulders. I'd be scared too, especially since the combine is a loaner.
Its so enjoyable watching "6" do his job! He's such a smart young man!
Tip for Onyx: Don't ever leave home. His life was mine growing up. Exactly doing what he is doing. My father ran about 3500 acres growing up, part his and part custom combining and drilling. Mom delivering our bologna lunch every day to dad and me and his hired hands.
I left after I graduated. Biggest regret of my life. Stay at home kid. Take over that family farm. Just watching this brings back that smell. The sounds and sights of being out in the middle of nowhere at night harvesting, combining, cultivating and discing.
Solid and ~relate-able~ comment my dude. I didn't grow up on a farm, but I love seeing Onyx get after it. Reminds me of my upbringing... just with more Deere! I'm sure ZJ's gonna get that kid a quality education, but I hope he finds his way home to carry on the family tradition!
@@jackbook8400 Thanks my man. I joined the Army straight outta High School. Not ashamed of that, I just wish I had stayed on the farm. Dad doesn't farm near as much anymore. He has about 1000 acres crop and arohnd 160 head of cattle. Not sure exact how much pasture.
@@NASCARCUP22FAN Well thank you for your service brotha! My little sister's a 1C at the Naval Academy rn, hoping to go Marines come graduation this spring. Much respect to you and all the other servicemen/women out there!! I'm sure you're dad is proud.
I didn't start running machinery until I was 12. By 14 I was the hired man on Dad's farm. So I'm watching these harvest videos with great memories.
My best advice is to make sure Onyx goes to university or Ag college after high school. It'll teach him about surviving in the outside world without mom and dad close by. He'll learn to make decisions on his own, some bad but mostly good decisions while in school. Then come home and go farming. All that he has learned, both while growing up and in post secondary school, will help Onyx be a great farmer!
Loving the daily videos Mrs. millennialfarmer 👍🏽 onyx seems like he’s living the dream 😂
Great that he is learning to pay attention to everything.
I really enjoyed the time Becky spent with Onyx in the tractor getting his view of what he is doing. When Zach is in the combine and he is in the tractor you don't get a chance to see that part of him. The awareness of what he is doing and the value of the equipment is amazing. Very mature young man. I remember those days when my son was out there running equipment and the pride I had. Zach and Becky, you have a right to be very proud.
It’s awesome to see a young man working together with dad reminds me of my younger years when I helped on the farm !!
Onyx is beyond his years. Quite the lad. Gone from ripping around the yard is his quad to being an operator at 10 years old. Well taught Dad.
Man, you must be some happy and proud parents. Enjoy him while he will still work for room and board.
I am sure I speak for a lot of us here but, damn I am proud of that boy. We have been around and watched him turn into a farmer which is super cool... GREAT JOB MOM AND DAD!
I enjoyed hearing Onyx''s perspective of driving the grain cart. He's very mature and smart for his age.
Once the dot was pointed out, I couldn't unsee it...lol.
Onyx is really getting the hang of grain cart....and the red tractor jokes. He's doing great.
You must be super proud of your son. Really happy to see you've taught this young man how to handle a piece of equipment like that and he seems to have a good grip on the job. Im a father myself and I wish I had a way I could work with my sons.
Good job teaching Onyx to operate the equipment very impressive the way he is working,maybe he will continue to follow in his dad’s footsteps.
amazingly focused and level headed young man!!
4 minutes ago never been this early. Love watching onyx on the grain cart
A very (justifiably) proud dad and mum. Well done you two, take a bow.
That little farm hand running that grain cart around must make you so proud, awesome.
Onyx is doing a great job driving the tractor and grain cart. Like his dad cutting jokes on the red machines u and Becky have done a great job with raising the kids should b proud. Enjoy the videos. Awesome x9 combine.
"I'm surprised it's moving" -Onyx
😂😂😂
Mighty impressed with your youngsters ability and realization that his help is needed.
Onyx is such a smart young man! I love his breakdown on line following! ❤️😍🙂🙏
You have got to be so proud of that young man! And your daughters are following him right on track! Great job, Mom and Dad!!
Onyx is doing a great job. Pretty cool watching him operate a half million dollars worth of machinery like a Pro.
“Surprised it’s moving”
Your inspiring a movement
Hell that kid makes me proud! Y’all have to be some proud parents and grandparents of the true farmer!
Love hearing him talk about "point of reference" on his own
Great to see Onyx driving like a pro and taking pride in it. I remember when my old man started me driving grain cart around the same age. Keep it up guys!
Really impressed with young Onyx. Zak and mum have a good reason to feel proud of him.
I'm just loving this year's videos and seeing Onyx become part of the operation. No more doing donuts in the drive...got work to do!. Very awesome. Hats off to ya Onxy!
Also, to be able to tell your friends you're unloading a X9 on the go. Beat that! Lol.
Wow Onyx gets it. He is wise beyond his years and is the next generation family farmer already. The girls jumped in as well and got the job done. Proud parents and viewers i am sure......
Great job I to have a young man who helps me on our produce farm
