    I grew up in that area on dairy. I remember going In your barn when the mats were going down. Was there in 1983. When farmers would help one another. I’m glad to see your fathers legacy going on

    The video brings back memories of our farm in Antwerp NY which I still have but is not operating. Trying to restore it back to what it was or as close as I can financially. We had Lamco wagons and a 93 combine which I still have. Farming is a lot of work and many farms fail because the work is so demanding and it is a stain on the family in regards to time management. I travel 81 over an over to northern NY from Virginia so I probably pass your farm. Thanks for the videos.

    This is nice. Brought back a lot of memories. I grew up next to a dairy farm in Southwestern Ohio. I spent a lot of time there. I believe if my family had had land, I would have never left the farm, but I did leave and learned things about the world that I wish I had never known. You and your family have every right
    to be proud of the life you've built and the love you've shared. You, in my mind, have an ideal life that's as close to perfection as any I've known of. I wish you and your family the very best that life has and I ask God to walk beside you each step.you rake....and to keep you all safe.
