Hey Pete, bought a few Dexters last year after watching your videos. Cow calved on the hillside in March, poor little guy came out landed on the ground and slid right over the edge onto the fire road 6 ft below. After a successful recovery operation momma and baby were reunited. We named him “Cliff”.
So true. Just hearing those words makes my day. I watch his videos so much, I know all his jokes! They are so relaxing. I can't wait till he starts using the little excavator.
I just realized one bonus benefit from watching your videos. This morning, it was one of these days when everything seems to be going wrong. I woke up on the wrong side of the bed as they say, and everything seems to set me off. Then I sat down for my sunday morning coffee and breakfast and watched this video. And that was that. Watching you and Hillary going about doing your chores, the serene rythm of farm life, and just your calm positive comments on your everyday stuff calmed me down. Better than camomille and a ASMR video combined. This is the best. Thank you Just a Few Acres Farm!
Hilary, I thought that the Dad joke was a good one, it worked, it got a groan from me!!😐 Warmest❤ regards to the two of you, from the two of us, in🦘🦘 Melbourne, Australia...
I've got to believe that the farmer that drove by on the big John Deere was just a little envious looking at a true classic doing what it does best. I love those old Farmall tractors, my Grandfather had an old Farmall H and a baler with it's own engine running it to bale hay. What great times. Now the house, milkhouse and barn are gone, leaves an empty feeling inside every time I drive by but some of my fondness memories
My old barn and milkhouse have been torn down like yours, but I had preserved them with digital pictures and now see them every day on my computer screensaver. That picture calms me down and brings much pleasure.
Just a few acres is the best show to watch. All the videos are awesome to watch. Pete and Hillary are so cool working together. Pete thanks for keeping all the farmall tractor and equipment and making them like new . So cool to see you working them in the field. Ps your show is awesome thanks again
We live in Bulgaria and we stumbled upon your channel while searching for pigs videos for my 2 yo son. He has been a fan ever since, and regularly talks about you as "the Uncle" and "the Auntie". Thanks to you, he now has a more realistic view of farm life (we live in a big city). His favourite content is pigs and everything connected to your tractors and their maintenance. Thank you so much for being a part of this!
I grew up on 400 + acres until I graduated... 175 tillable, over 40 varieties of veggies, horses, cows, pigs and chickens OH MY.. I've worked hard my whole life. Am 70 now and It's good to watch some one else do it!! THX for the memories!!!
The vibrancy of the blue sky, green pasture, and immaculately painted red tractor in the angled shot was incredibly beautiful. Cool too to see how you handle scraps bails! Thanks as always, Pete!
This is the third year I have watched you make hay. After the old equipment videos, the hay videos are my favorites. They remind me of my youth, when my family made hay every year on our dairy farm. Of course, back then it was small square bales hauled by hand.
Every video you do takes me back 60 years, working on a farm, with the same equipment. My favorite tractor is still the "M", even after driving many newer big tractors. Thank you so very much.
Hi Pete! An added benefit for using the older self powered farm equipment for people who have one tractor is if the tractor is broken a pickup truck or a vehicle of some kind, as long as the vehicle can pull whatever you using can be used. We used a 4 wheeler to pull an old horse drawn sickle mower and an old trip rake one time. Worked well.
Wise words from Mr Corb Lund "Tag in the ear, shots in the hip, dehornin paste, and snip snip snip. Welcome to the world little buddy! Ain't no picnic." Songs called "Talkin Veterinarian Blues"
You look so satisfied and happy running all the tractors and implements that most farmers have discarded. Congratulations on your success and lifestyle.
I really loved this video ❤ the smell of rain-soaked hay that dried in the sun smells even better, the rustling and prickly sound of dry hay, the hum of the tractor and its very special smell - all this take me 60 years back in time 🥰
My second fav tractor videos of yours Pete, to actual cutting of the hay !!! Doesn't take much to put a smile in my heart!!! Anybody want to adopt an ole country girl at heart???
I have a tedder like that. it has saved me alot of drying time. Trying to get hay dry this time of year in the mountains of SW Virginia can be a challenge
I love watching the Super C. That is a great looking tractor. I have a UT channel. I know how much work you go through to make your videos. Thank you so much. Your channel relaxes me every time I watch you. I have seen your videos so many times. I know your jokes. THANK YOU!!!
Seeing these old tractors at tractor shows are one thing but nothing beats seeing them in action out in the field. Now that's service. A brand new batchelor pad for Titus and Orden with fresh hay delivered right out of the field.
Farming is a most unappreciated profession. Most people have no idea how hard they work for the relatively low income they earn God Bless these people, they are doing God’s work
Pete, when you want to retire, I think a good side job would be audiobooks. You do have a voice that one could listen to while listening to a good book.
Enjoyed this video, looks like you have a few extra bales from your chicken field, I like how you were able to clean out the baler so the hay doesn’t have to sit in the machine, thanks
The weather brings out the best in us thanks to a little from our friends. You were having a little too much fun but you deserved it. To see the aerial shots reminded how beautiful the fields look. You and Hillary have become a favorite of your subscribers. Positive, knowledgeable, and experienced in what you love. Thank you for sharing !😊
Just got done saying how I like that MD and how it sounds before you made the comment about the sound. My wife just chuckled. The MD is what brought me to your channel. Thanks for taking the time to video all aspects of farm life.
This country needs more family farms just like yours and we can feed our people higher quality food and live healthier lives thank you for the extra effort 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
You make quite possibly my favourite farming videos on the internet. While it good fun to watch Cole over at Sonne Farms with their BIG farm and HUGE tractors and TINY doggies. Theres nothing I like better than watching some classic tractor action on a farm thats more, atainable in this financial climate (well nearly). Top notch content Pete!!
Hi Pete. Love your videos. I have been putting up hay for many years. I always had the best luck cutting with the swather, flipping it the next morning into rows and usually able to bale that afternoon. Obviously weather cooperating of course.
I have 5ac north of Nashville Tennessee. I use my great grandfathers 51 cub and sickle to cut my one pasture and use my old cub cadet garden tractors to spray, fertilize and run the manure spreader I have. I use my Super Mta to run my New Holland 55 rake and I store it loose in my barn. Only have a horse and donkey so I don’t need much. Love your videos.
Pete! We have come up with a name for your type of farming methods! “Calming Farming” so meditative on a Sunday night before bed, thanks to you and Hilary we get to chill with your methods of farming,
I became acquainted with your channel through my dad. He said, "Hey, check this guy out. He's from close to where we used to live." I grew up back in the 70's in Dryden. And then in the first few minutes of your video today you're wearing a Hope College t-shirt and I live 25 minutes east of where that is located. How fun! 🙂I really enjoy your channel. It's a breath of fresh, peaceful air in the midst of all the noise in the world today.
It was funny to see the modern tractor pass as you were rowing up the hay. Great video. We used to make alot of hay here. Now mostly silage due to the weather. All the best 🇬🇧.
Om living the farm experience through watching you and your activity of farming....but what started it for me was watching you work on restoration of you different tractors....not to forget mentioning your restoring the honey wagon!
I love watching your very nice IH tractors. Those tricycle Farmall tractors are great for raking hay. I have a 1947 H that my grandfather bought new and that was always it's job, running the tedder and the rake. We used to have a cycle mower for it too. Great video.
"Hay " Pete, get it,? I was just wondering how long it takes for you and Hill to process a batch of chickens? I'll bet after years of doing this its a chore that you don't look forward to? Thanks for your calming demeanor. We appreciate y'all!!👍
Hey Pete, bought a few Dexters last year after watching your videos.

Thanks again for a great video!
"Hi, I'm Pete. Welcome to Just a Few Acres Farm". Whenever i hear this, my day instantly gets better! Hope you reach the 500k soon!
Haha, I'm the same as you. No matter how bad the day is, it will get better when I watch Pete new video.
So true. Just hearing those words makes my day. I watch his videos so much, I know all his jokes! They are so relaxing. I can't wait till he starts using the little excavator.

You are welcome. I guess making someone else's day a little better is one of the best things these videos can do.
Hilary, I thought that the Dad joke was a good one, it worked, it got a groan from me!!😐 Warmest❤ regards to the two of you, from the two of us, in🦘🦘 Melbourne,
Australia...
Pete thanks for the calmness you bring into my life
Pete, really enjoyed this haying video and especially seeing and hearing the MD in action. The hay is looking good.
Forget about Clarkson's Farm. Your the best.
I've got to believe that the farmer that drove by on the big John Deere was just a little envious looking at a true classic doing what it does best. I love those old Farmall tractors, my Grandfather had an old Farmall H and a baler with it's own engine running it to bale hay. What great times. Now the house, milkhouse and barn are gone, leaves an empty feeling inside every time I drive by but some of my fondness memories

Never miss a video. Keep it up Pete and Hillarie You two are great.
The vibrancy of the blue sky, green pasture, and immaculately painted red tractor in the angled shot was incredibly beautiful. Cool too to see how you handle scraps bails! Thanks as always, Pete!
I love it when the closed captioning interprets the sounds of the farm equipment as "music" 😊
This is the third year I have watched you make hay. After the old equipment videos, the hay videos are my favorites. They remind me of my youth, when my family made hay every year on our dairy farm. Of course, back then it was small square bales hauled by hand.
There isn’t anything better than just a few acres farm and some coffee in the morning. Good morning Pete and Hillary.
One of the best hay making videos I’ve seen!
Hey Pete and Hilary, Making hay in the sunshine between the rain storms. Thanks for the memories.
Pete, you are and remain an inspiration for a generation of aspiring small scale farmers. Thank you!
Nice to see those old tractors out in the field doing what they were supposed to do. Keep up the good work Pete and Hillary.
Every video you do takes me back 60 years, working on a farm, with the same equipment. My favorite tractor is still the "M", even after driving many newer big tractors. Thank you so very much.
I loved the picture at 14:22 with the MD in the field and the big John Deere four-wheel drive tractor on the road.
and at 23:00
You gotta be fast to see it, but Pete gave a farmer style wave with his left hand to the guy in the big John Deere...
I just love the sound of the tractor baling the hay. Makes me think of may child hood on the farm. Thanks Pete.
Pete it just warms my heart to seee those ole tractors still earn their keel on your farm. . Thank you for sharing your life . God Bless. 👍👍👍
The drone really showcases how beautiful your property is!
Hi Pete! An added benefit for using the older self powered farm equipment for people who have one tractor is if the tractor is broken a pickup truck or a vehicle of some kind, as long as the vehicle can pull whatever you using can be used. We used a 4 wheeler to pull an old horse drawn sickle mower and an old trip rake one time. Worked well.
Every time I watch you it makes me glad I found your channel. 🙂
I’m a Calvin grad but grew up in Holland so happy to see Hope represented today
That wisteria looks amazing Pete,
Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Can't wait for that 756 to get it's turn in your shop! Restoring your old tractors is a lot of fun to watch.

Your drone shots with the rake and the rows was awesome.
Hey, hey…it’s hay day. 💚 (Kudos for leaving the Deere sighting in, Pete)
You look so satisfied and happy running all the tractors and implements that most farmers have discarded. Congratulations on your success and lifestyle.
Good morning,Pete and Hillary
That look you have when going from gasoline to diesel is priceless! I get the same reaction just watching. Great video!
Pete, my daughter will be 3 in November and every day she tells me “daddy, I wanna watch Pete.” Thank you for the great content!
I love the way you integrate the tractor sound in the drone shots. Makes those drone views so much more watchable than when using music.
I really loved this video ❤ the smell of rain-soaked hay that dried in the sun smells even better, the rustling and prickly sound of dry hay, the hum of the tractor and its very special smell - all this take me 60 years back in time 🥰
Always puts a smile on my face to see you pull into a barn full of (taken care of) Farmall tractors...
My second fav tractor videos of yours Pete, to actual cutting of the hay !!! Doesn't take much to put a smile in my heart!!! Anybody want to adopt an ole country girl at heart???
Nothing like a Sunday morning episode!
Sunday evening, from where I am.
Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon, Sunday evening and Monday morning. Always great to see what Pete is up to on the farm!
@@Pnbllwzrd ain't that the truth.
Wow the stress of calculating the best timing for drying the hay but beating the rain. Great video. Glad you got it in in time
I have a tedder like that. it has saved me alot of drying time. Trying to get hay dry this time of year in the mountains of SW Virginia can be a challenge

You have done it again 👏 great video,love all you spectacular shots!
Really enjoyable.
Thank you both.❤
Good morning Pete and Hillary, you just made my day one of my favorite things was taken and raking and tethering hay
Busy day! Not to mention all the extra work in making the great video shots! Thanks for sharing your day!
Enjoyed this video, looks like you have a few extra bales from your chicken field, I like how you were able to clean out the baler so the hay doesn’t have to sit in the machine, thanks
Pete, your hay raking hat is the best. 👍 Farmall MD sounds good since fixing that dropped valve.
The weather brings out the best in us thanks to a little from our friends. You were having a little too much fun but you deserved it. To see the aerial shots reminded how beautiful the fields look. You and Hillary have become a favorite of your subscribers. Positive, knowledgeable, and experienced in what you love. Thank you for sharing !😊
Just came in from several hours of painting my deck to rest. How nice it is to find your video to relax me. Thank you.
Great video! Love the daily life on your farm. The hay cutting, baling etc. was interesting. Congratulations on the new calf!
Just got done saying how I like that MD and how it sounds before you made the comment about the sound. My wife just chuckled. The MD is what brought me to your channel. Thanks for taking the time to video all aspects of farm life.
Happy to see you back and hope you’re all doing well and god bless you and your family and your friends mate
These drone shots are just so beautiful ❤❤
Thanks again guys!! Enjoyed your hard work and commentary.
He made me love agriculture more than ever.
This country needs more family farms just like yours and we can feed our people higher quality food and live healthier lives thank you for the extra effort 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The tractors sound FANTASTIC! Thank you, again, for sharing!
Thanks for sharing Pete, and I always enjoy your videos
Did you hear about the professional farmer? He's outstanding in his field. ;) My one and only farming dad joke.
Pete I just love your hay videos. That was a lot of work in a short time. Keep them coming. Glad you got them in before the storm.
Hi Pete. Love your videos. I have been putting up hay for many years. I always had the best luck cutting with the swather, flipping it the next morning into rows and usually able to bale that afternoon. Obviously weather cooperating of course.
Loved the video! I’m not as tough as you I’d have to wear a poncho or rain coat doing bulls, ha! Have a great weekend.
I have 5ac north of Nashville Tennessee. I use my great grandfathers 51 cub and sickle to cut my one pasture and use my old cub cadet garden tractors to spray, fertilize and run the manure spreader I have.

Glad to see the Hope College shirt again and hope it recovers from all the extra fluids! Great video, as always!
Thanks for sharing your personal farming chores with us all...
Regardless of one bail or 20 bails, thanks for taking us along with you... Enjoy watching those old tractors runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn,,,,
Pete! We have come up with a name for your type of farming methods! “Calming Farming” so meditative on a Sunday night before bed, thanks to you and Hilary we get to chill with your methods of farming,
Watching 'the birthing of the bales' never gets old😊
A small slice of tranquility in a turbulant world. Thanks Pete and Hilary for sharing.
A nice days' work there Pete!
Pleasant video for a morning that was not going all that well.
Thankyou,

Love the aerial shots of the raking and bailing!

It’s always fun watching you make hay!
Song running in my head watching this green acres is the place to be farm living is the life for me lol love this
Good morning everyone! I really enjoy the aerial shots that you do. It gives a different perspective of the farming end of it. 👍❤️📹😃
mate these vids are a pleasant oasis in what seems a ever increasing chaotic world . thanks for these moments of calm.
Once again.. awesome drone shots,camera angles, and editing..thanks!! And how you timed your neighbor's J.D. to pass by on cue was superlative!!
I love watching your very nice IH tractors. Those tricycle Farmall tractors are great for raking hay. I have a 1947 H that my grandfather bought new and that was always it's job, running the tedder and the rake. We used to have a cycle mower for it too. Great video.
Look forward to watching you on Sundays. Greetings from Orange County in the Hudson Valley!
"Hay " Pete, get it,? I was just wondering how long it takes for you and Hill to process a batch of chickens? I'll bet after years of doing this its a chore that you don't look forward to? Thanks for your calming demeanor. We appreciate y'all!!👍
Great job Pete.... keep em' coming.... We need more Hillarie Mom jokes.
Enjoyed your video Pete,Hillary hay looks great. Your herd looks awesome. Have a great day.
The really high drone shots are so satisfying to watch. I wish I could watch you do the whole field from that perspective.
Rangersly is right. You always have a positive impact on my day.
Thanks Pete, I’m was raised a city boy but had 2 uncles that were farmers and I love your tractors!!!!
What an amazing family farm!!! Pete, and family I thoroughly enjoy watching your video no matter what the task of the day is. Wish I was part of it…
Gotta love all the new life on the farm this time of year, love watching hay being made with antique machinery
