  • Today we look at the man and his story of how he started as a blacksmith and went on to form one of the biggest agriculture company's in the world. We look at his company's roots and how he built his first plow. We also look at everything he accomplished along the way from Grand Detour to Mollie Illinois. Thanks for watching a short history of John Deeres life.

    Enjoyed the video and I’ve always liked this quote by John Deere: “I will never put my name on a product that does not have in it the best that is in me.” ~ John Deere.

    I'm from Rutland, VT. There's a historic site marker in the city park where he was born. There's another one in Lecestier, VT and another on the Middlebury Green where he had shops. He proved leaving Vermont for the midwest was a huge success. Great content, thank you.

    You got blue tractors, orange ones, red ones, silver, white, and even yellow ones, but nothing runs like a John Deere green one. Spent many an hour of my youth running Deere equipment. It's the best.

    Great video...and as a fellow JD fanatic, I thought I knew everything there is to know about John Deere, but after watching your video I definitely learned a few new facts. I live about 10 miles from the Erie Canal, south of Rochester, NY, and never knew he traveled out west on the canal...very interesting! I also never put the timeline together of his death and the fact his son really took Deere & Co. to the next level of manufacturing.

    Odd how you forgot that John Deere left vermont running away from his creditors, to start over.
    Also how you forgot that John Deere moved in with another blacksmith of the area, who was the actual inventor of the self scouring plow

      Funny how I've read your posts on just about any agricultural manufacturer and john deere is the only one you talk trash, you've talked down on just about everything with john deeres name on it .........starting to think you are you own problem..think about it before you reply because I know you will.
