Bringing It Home : Soybean Harvest Wrap-Up
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.ย. 2024
- Our soybean harvest is done and even the farmer got excited for a change! It didn't happen without a few more hiccups, but it happened none-the-less. And a reminder we are all in this together. From the bottom of my sleeve-wearing heart, THANK YOU for being here.
I'm having a hard time replying to all of your comments, but know they are appreciated and YOU are appreciated. Until next time, farm hard, live well. And if you don't farm, but you consume or wear or use farming products (pretty sure that's all of you)...you support us. And without you we wouldn't be able to do what we do. So thank you!

Hi! I'm a farm wife, mama to two and coffee addict - raking my way through life on the farm, inviting you along. I believe all of our stories matter and that they all relate more than we think.
My husband, two children and I work and live on a beef cattle operation in Milton, NC on the Central NC/VA line. No two days are the same around here and I use this vlog to show the good, the bad, the hard and the rewarding we find in this life. If you like what you see, I'd love for you to subscribe and tell a friend who might enjoy, as well. This community is growing and I love interacting with you all. Farm hard, live well.

If some don't like your equipment
Maybe they want to volunteer some New epuipment ☺
Never let anyone knock your equipment. It is what it is! I am proud of Gertie and proud of Lawrence for keeping it going. MB, you are quite the philosopher! Thanks!
After 41 years, we sold all of our cows, and I can get my "cow" memories by watching your vlog. Thank you. Not too many people understand how much work is involved in farming.
We appreciate you being here and love that you "get" it!
Don’t let the very few get you upset.You guys have some of the prettiest cattle and crops I have ever seen. You guys definitely know what y’all are doing and do well with what y’all have!
A few months back when you got the gleaner going I congratulated you on your accomplishment. I want to encourage you again. 47 years ago I worked for a young farmer; I was 20, he was 22. My landlord, who owned the feed mill and the farm where I raised hogs as a sideline, put down my boss saying, "He's farming with such junk!" My boss's dad had 5 boys and he tried to make it where all could keep farming one way or another. He succeeded with 3. One became a priest and another got mad and quit. The dad was like Lawrence, he was a good mechanic. He went to auctions far and wide and picked up bargain tractors and machinery and rebuilt and restored them so that his sons could get started farming without going so far into debt, (which they had to anyway to a lesser extent.) 47 years later the family is still going strong but the mill is gone and my landlord's farm belongs to somebody else. It's so easy for someone to thoughtlessly say, "Why don't you go buy a $500,000.00 combine." Like saying "what's wrong with you? Why ain't you great like me." The guys saying this are usually in 1 of 3 categories. 1) the arm chair quarterbacks that aren't really players themselves but think they know how to tell you how to do it. 2) someone spoiled rotten born with a gold spoon that thinks the rest of the world should give up and go work for them or 3) the fools that won't be around much longer because they are so deep in debt that when something goes wrong, they lose what they never actually owned to their creditors.
That old machinery is great and you don't have to be a supernerd to keep the computers working. Most of the supernerds that I've used to fix my computers can't tell you what went wrong, they just know how to restore original settings or replace parts that they don't know why won't work.
I watch your channel because I like seeing ingenuity in action doing what they can with what they got.
Mark Enge I wish I could give your comment 1000 thumbs up because it's so true.
I appreciate this comment and the encouragement. We do what we do with what we can do it with and make it work for sure. There's something to be said for it, I know. Thank you!
Mark Enge
Amen
Meredith, you're a beautiful lady. And yes farming is hard work it was harder years ago. But I remember what my Grandad said "Don't Curse A Farmer with a mouth full of food.
This to me is so dumb…. Farmers don’t farm because they want to feed people out of the love of their hearts…. They do it to make money and work for themselves……
"IT'S PAID FOR" is the best equipment of all, my dad taught me that when I was just a boy . When you can fix your equipment that's all the more reason to stay away from the debt. I have no doubt that Lawrence foreseen that there would be kinks to work through when y'all bought the combine. You were extremely gracious in your defense of Gerdi, and well within your side of the fence to say something. Besides, how boring would it be to watch a brand new shiney combine wheel through a field of beans, without dramatic pauses. Have a steak dinner, y'all earned it.
Well said Mr white !!!!!!!!
Or watch shiny new machinery stopped for a $100 service call while an overworked JD tech throws away perfectly good sensors trying to isolate a problem with some electronic bs that Gertie doesn't even have.( and the $100 is just cuz he showed up now we spend the real money!)
Agree!
The Gleaner may not be new but when Lawrence gets in the cab to do some harvesting, no agent from a finance company can tap on the window to say that he is taking possession of it, because of non payments.
Very wise Bernards can sleep peacefully at night with that in mind.
From Texas, I agree, stay away from the electronic crap you cannot get back into service in a timely manner.
You should always be grateful for what you have no matter the condition. It's honorable to be farmers. If more people tried it maybe they would want to do it. It's wonderful being outside . Thanks for sharing your family's life.
I'm sitting here remembering the only new equipment my dad ever bought. We were farming in Michigan and we were using a Ford Ferguson, and an old Oliver for our farm work. Not sure of the reason but..., Dad bought a brand new 1953 Ford tractor right off the showroom floor. That was a good tractor and we used it very extensively for about 3 years. Watching Lawrence and your son, AND you. fixing your machines and keeping them running is an inspiration. Keep the videos coming and you'll keep an 80-year-old Ohio man happy.
I worked with my uncle on his dairy farm and used an old Allis WD something raking, no power steering tricycle and I hated it. Had a cousin killed on it packing silage. His main tractors were Olivers since the dealer was close. All his equipment was old but his son could fix anything. They were great times in my life.
I worked on my uncles farm in Iowa when I was 13 years old and had an old Farmall tractor that I learned to drive and used to take and bail hay for the dairy cows.
Keep sending your videos and this 72 years old man will keep watching.
@@dirtyjohn6556 yo soy de el salvador y veo todos sus videos
Girl don’t worry what fools say about the harvester, she’s a beautiful lady. It’s good to see the old equipment still working, love your channel we watch it all the time. Sending all the love to you and your family from Australia 🇦🇺
Got a little emotional myself when Lawerence showed excitement..perseverance paid off!!
I will never understand why people feel the need to be negative. All farmers fill a need and you guys do amazing. Watching your operation reminds me of growing up on my grandparents farm. Absolutely love your videos. Thank you for sharing your life and family and God bless you. Hello from Indiana.
Tip of the hat to y'all from Oregon - we trust farmers more than anyone. Great to see Lawrence succeed with the immortal Gerdie!
I am enjoying The Bernards from Oregon too
Hard working family .
Means more to keep the aged equipment running , not many people can .
LB found one great lady to share his life with .
Your both lucky to find a person to support and rely on each other .
Setting examples of true love and dedication for our younger generation to follow ....
Yes! We are all in this together. We run some older equipment and some newer. The newer is much harder to work on than the older. Love your videos!!
Hi Ronda you are also watching Meredith 😀. And your chopping is over. When is the new movie.😀😀
. . . and we love your’s also, Ronda.
I’m with ya on newer stuff being a pain in the ass her old gleaner is a great combine and I love both of your families videos
Thank you so much!! In it with ya!
I very much enjoy your videos and your defense of what you and your husband are doing along with your children.You are living within your own means and you don’t have hundreds of thousands of debt hanging over your heads to keep you awake at night.I hope you continue with your videos for a long time. I love you and your family and God bless all of you.
One man's junk is another man's corn picker, most any farmer knows those old Gleaner combines are the cat's meow nothing to be ashamed of at all.
A very fond project from about 1993 is safely stored in my mind of collecting an old rusty and seized up bale elevator from a scrap yard for my brother and spending weeks freeing it up, oiling and greasing it back to life.
I derived great satisfaction from seeing it operate perfectly afterwards for a decade of summers, as efficiently as a new one. I have VHS footage of it in action.
Long live old Gerdi!!
In their day the Allis Chalmers Gleaner was as good as it got
Remarkable how seed companies keep using old gleaners on their test plots to insure the most accurate test plots.
Timothy Bailey
This was years ago but we ran a Gleaner G and honestly I think it did a cleaner job than John Deere combines. Don’t know about today but then they were a great combine. Like anything you had to set it right.
Not everyday can be beautiful, but with you in it it is.
What a WONDERFUL life you all have! Count your blessings name them one by one!
Exactly! All farmers matter!! 👍👍 TO THE BERNARD FAMILY 👍👍🇺🇸
You can tell how good a farm family is at farming by how good their livestock looks. And by looking how shiny those heifers were your family is great at it! Cows always look healthy in your videos
I can’t stop watching you guys getting it done. Thanks for being here for us.
When you can insert the phrase "It's Paid For" into the conversation, it changes the whole narrative of the conversation. When a repair only cost what would be maybe one or two payments on new equipment it is what I like to call a "No Brainer".
That’s why I like watching your videos. You guys get by with what you have. I enjoy watching your husband getting in there and fixing things. That’s what farm life is all about
Hi from the netherlands love the southern way of living and the friendly people when i visit the USA greetings from a Dutch dairyfarmer
Debt Free equipment is the best. Love the down to earth grass roots videos. Lawrence showed some of his personality.
Gleaner looks better every time he takes it out. "Paid for" my favorite equipment brand!
You are a great Farmers Wife and partner. Most folks don't have any idea what it takes, but you are giving a great view of what it takes. Love to watch you and the husband do whatever it takes to accomplish the job. Love and prayers to your family.
Understatement of the century, “my husband is basically a genius”
Judging by the fact he has definitely managed to marry the most beautiful wife in the world speaks for itself. I have mad respect for him!
Yes and your much more precious than a new combine.
Yes most certainly, you can say that again, perfect, cant find em like this !!
He married up no doubt.
SO TRUE!!! Absolutely gorgeous inside and out. Great mother for their children as well. I hope she never becomes discouraged as to what she’s doing, because she is doing quite well!
Farmers work with what they have and make due with what they got and take pride in it! Pay no attention to negative comments. You guys have a beautiful farm and family!!!
Y'all are so smart to have good, old, paid for equipment! When a bad year comes, you will still have your equipment when the guys with payments they can't make, well, you know...
I'm amazed with y'alls relationship with each other.
From Kansas City, it is always interesting to watch a Millennial Farmer or Welker Farms harvest video and then a How Farms Work video and then one of yours. Being able to compare the ression of smaller single family farms to the larger scale operations, the one thing that stands out is that it isn't the acres or equipment, but rather the work ethic and attitude that goes into creating food and fiber for the world.
I really appreciate this comment and I agree. And I also admire and respect every one of those guys and their families- and I get to meet them all next month! Yay!
Well said!!!
Michael Kuehnen yes well said
I agree also, I like watching their channels too but the only difference with those guys is that those guys are farming on their parents farms and they don’t own it. If they had to buy their own farm and their own equipment then we would see how much fancy equipment they would have.
Yup I have all kinds of colours of equipment on my farm. Whatever works.
Hello from West Jordan, Utah. Your support for LB is very important to his well being as frustration can overwhelm a body. Too many people, and especially the upcoming generation, don't have any idea where there supper comes from. You had a right to vent.
Not every day can be beautiful, but you can be beautiful every day and you are inside and out. From Kansas.
One thing I like about you Meredith is when you bare your soul you are as beautiful in the spirit as you are in the physical. I enjoy the daily family farm activities of all of your wonderful family. I know your struggles and appreciate your victories. My dad owned a dairy in the 40’s and the 50’s and my brother and I and two of my dad’s brothers worked very hard with old, out dated equipment and vehicles to help dad make a go of it until the large corporate dairy’s finally squeezed us out of the business. God bless you all and I am praying for and see a bright future for your two precious children. Also, I had two knee replacements years ago one of them twice and I am doing fine. Please tell Lawerence that I am praying and believing for his successful knee replacements and full recovery. Pastor Earl Baker, Lt Col. Earl Baker, USAF, Ret.
I must admit to usually giving a big "woo-hoo" in the combine cabin (when nobody's looking) when harvest (especially a long a difficult one) is finished. And like Lawrence I'm not usually one given to displaying great emotion :-)
The American family farms, the people doing the hard work behind the products. Thank you for all you provide and do
Don’t let the Gleaner comments get you down. We live in a generation of replace it not repair. What happened to the local Fixit Shop? We need to get back to the old ways, I feel people were happier and proud of the past. God bless you
I agree, but if it weren't for those that replace rather than repair I wouldn't be able to buy cars and trucks or any of my stuff for pennies on the dollar.
Don't let anyone get you down, you be you!! Watching from Northeast Arkansas!!! We Love your channel!!!!!!
I love how you talk to your animals, especially your conversations with Bonnie and Elmo.
Enjoyed the bean harvest posts. It is great to complete the cycle from planting to harvest. You have invented a new phrase, "Truck Chat" which is a great term for what you do sometime. You are blessed that your husband can Repair equipment. It is great to see that you appreciate him. In my opinion you two are great roll models for us all. A hard working, quiet man, an a wife who is helpful and not afraid to get your hands dirty. You two are a great match, in my view. Love your life style and your fam. Bonnie is also great! Jim, TN.
God bless the farmer. Whether big or small, they do it all.
Ya'll work hard. My hat's off to you. True Americans growing food for other folks to eat. The backbone of this country. The Lord's bessing on your family.
Love Lawrence's little touch of excitement. : ) Glad y'all got it done!
It was unexpected but nice :)
Breakdowns are common with all hard used equipment. You just have to repair, then "keep on keeping on" until it breaks again. I buy heavy duty parts to fix things on my tree farm because it make it longer between repairs. I get a rust hole on anything, I just rivet or weld a plate over the hole or cracked joint, then go back to work. I am a "jack of most trades", and a master of a few of them due to my Dad and my Uncle. I'm grateful to them both for sharing their smart knowledge with me. Off the farm, I used to help being an airframe mechanic and "gofer" at the 1941 Airshow in Geneseo, NY in the 80's, and loved every minute of it. Aircraft of every type I fixed and got a ride in. Heavy fun for a Twenty something year old kid. I got into Avionics that way, too. "Watch and learn" they said, and I learned. I miss those days badly. Flying in those WWII aircraft from a B-17 to a PT-17 was an experience I will never forget. Knowledge is precious, as you well know.
I'm not against big farmers but I'm against big farm corporations that are killing the little farmers. I'm against the big money gotten from the government (our tax dollars). I'm against the banks not helping the little guys. What I have and it's very small it's more of a hobby now that I'm retired but I like a little extra income but banks won't even talk to me and what little I have is all paid for but that doesn't matter to a bank. Never had the nice pretty shined up stuff when we had the dairy and our tools always fit and fixed our old rusty equipment but at the end of the day when we laid our heads on the pillow we didn't have to worry about bank payments or trying to keep up with the Jones. Good country living, farm raised food and family at the dinner table with a prayer of thanks is what I remember most. Just remember before the big farmers there was just the little guys paving the way. They work just as hard maybe even harder.
its hard to find a bank that's wants to help any farmer at this point in the game
Sarcasm is the best farm language! Gotta keep it in balance! Love your videos and your honesty! I grew up on the farm, feeding calves, cows, harvesting, chopping feed, carrying four 5 gallon buckets of feed numerous trips - driving old combines without any cabs, pulling calves during birth because they were breach and needed help! Keep it going Farmer’s Wife - you rock on so many levels!
I'll be more than honored to say thanks. Farmers are the best my grandparents were farmers and that is where I spent most of my summers and loved it
Just keep your head up and Thank God for what you do and how you serve the community with your corn and beans and cattle 👍🏼
You certainly have good looking cattle Meredith,many’s a farmer would be proud to have them ,great video 👍
Hello i am john cantrell and i live in small community called Ranger Georgia. Ihave been watching your videos for a long time. Thanks for being so good with your show. I hope to someday meet your father as he is a lot like my grandpa cantrell so long for now keep up the good work.
You do what you have to with what you've got. The harvest is completed. That was the goal.
Onward and upward!
That’s it, I’m subscribing...loved the soap box. You guys are great to watch. I don’t know how many videos I’ve been captivated by but this one just really won me over.
Farm life is never boring, always something to do or fix. God bless you
You are right keep the old equipment running as long as you can. The new computerized stuff will eat any profit you make. Your hubby is a smart hard working man and is wise to do what he is doing.
As old as that equipment is...I enjoyed watching the good old stuff run. Like you said it's easier to work on and most importantly NO PAYMENT !!!!!
Thanks for all you do to keep the world fed.
Miss Bernard as I will say you mam are a true southern belle your husband is a blessed man
Michigan here Mrs. Meredith. so happy for you and the Farmer. too see him excited that harvest is over is just too cool. he knows what he is doing and he is good at it. stay safe on the farm and have fun.
I like the new segment "moments with Meredith" in the truck
I am so happy for you and your channel. So much closer to reality tv than any show on tv. I was raised on a dairy farm in Illinois. My memories of growing up raising beef cattle, milking 100 dairy cattle, raising hogs, chickens and many different crops. There were 6 of us kids being raised on that family farm that my grandparents built. My oldest son lives there and farms it now and what a blessing it is to step foot in that old farm house and those old buildings and still drive some of the tractors I used to drive. So it brings me joy to watch you raise your family on a family farm and thank you for sharing it with the world. Your channel will help bring faith back to the farmer.
I enjoy your channel, and I thank Lawrence because he seems to be a good sport about the camera. LoL
Thanks for keeping it real. God gave you land and animals to watch over. Ya'll are doing a wonderful job doing that, raising kids, and showing the world how to live the good life, while at the same time, not compromising your integrity or your beliefs. I grew up on a farm, and my grandfather used to say "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right...and if it ain't worth doing right, it ain't worth doing at all." Ya'll are doing it right! Chaplain Wes Holland, MILTON, FLORIDA.
Watching from Cypress Texas. Yes we are all in this together!
it is nice to see a satisfied woman, with all the difficult trials, just so on, I wish you all the best from Slovenia
The guys complaining about the gleaner may have hundreds of thousands in debt for their nice shiny machines. Im partial to the old Gleaners. 🤗
Allis Chalmers 👍
Don't let the negative people get you down Hon. Do what you do best for Y'all !! FARM ON!
I watching from Owatonna, MN. I just have to say that when I saw Farmer throw his hands up and smile and cheer it just lit up my face! I actually went back and watched it a couple of times. I am so happy that you all got the harvest done. Thanks for sharing this video.
Northern farmer has an owatonna feed grinder mixer LOL dont see many of those anymore
As long as yaw are happy. That's all that matters. Your husband and your kids are awesome folks. Your very blessed
Congrats on the harvest y’all! It was diffidently a journey!! I’m with you Meredith ... old iron rocks and it’s paid for!! Hey... that could be a tee shirt!! LoL! Seeing the farmer excited was fun... he really earned that bit of joy! Otherwise be safe and stay happy! High fives from central Illinois! 😊
A lot of people forget what true farming the “Old Fashion Way” is. You work hard to achieve your goals and when you do it’s overwhelming with pride you “gotter dun” You and your husband are the true back bones to our country and what this country grew up with. Not the huge multi million dollar operations we all see now a days. I grew up on a farm just like yours and loved everyday being able to have a different challenge or different goal to get done. Be proud of your land your equipment and most of all be proud of who you are as a Farming family.
I really like that The Farmer is getting more interactive with the camera. He really is a funny guy, but I don't think that I will ever be able to understand him when he talks. Love your videos and awesome life.
@Bill Rayvan I guess it's all based on where you're from. Not being from the South it is for me. No offense intended.
Brett Dietrich Several years ago we had a gentleman to cut hay on our place that talked just like Lawrence. He was very understandable, and much like Lawrence, he was also a genius.
Hello Meredith! I have never commented before now but just would like to say I really enjoy your videos and I’m thankful you are willing to share your life and family with us! Such a sweet family! But I believe at least in my heart that we love to tune in to your channel because of you! There are many channels about farming but only one with the Bernard family so let me just say, it is you that we enjoy and I for one am very thankful to God for you! It’s amazing how he puts wonderful and beautiful people in front of us! Everyday the sparrow wakes up and finds his food. No fridge to store it but still finds it. And everyday God provides for us! Some with new equipment and some with old, but he will provide! Your amazing! Love you guys! Thank you!
What a nice comment. Thanks Daniel! Happy to have you following along and appreciate the encouragement. And yes, He always provides!🙌🏼
Being content in what you do is so much more important than the applause of others.
Excuse me a moment to rant, Merdi. All you people giving them a hard time need to go buzz off. Just because they don't put they're farm into debt for millions of $, don't mean they 're doin it wrong. I farmed for over 25 yrs and NEVER needed that $350k harvester or $150k tractor. Lawrence is a real farmer in my eyes. Most farmers with they're fancy expensive equipment can't plant a straight line without GPS. I think they did awesome this harvest with they're equipment. Sorry Merdi. I just get a little defensive when it concerns you guys. You ARE the real deal. Love you guys!
Your combine is just fine sweetie. Those old gleaner combines are tough. They are still here and doing the job they were intended to do. And they will be here long after some of the newer ones have stopped working and can't go any more. Don't worry about what some people say. They're always looking for something to complain about anyway. Hope you and your family have a happy and unforgettable Thanksgiving. God bless each of you . Keep up the great videos . 😄👍🙏
Thanks for this! Hope you and yours have a great Thanksgiving, as well.
That old gleanor is a good machine. They are in the top 4 for machines of its era. Its an oldie but a goodie lol. God bless you folks
you nailed how I feel about the negative comments concerning how I farm what I do don't do and the fact all I got is old equipment. I like to click on their channel name and then I find the words, "this channel has no content" which translates too they got not a clue so I just keep my mouth shut. we did have a roller coaster weather week here in NC. you got a shot of Lawrence rolling along at what I consider a great pace and this told me he got the combine dialed in. somehow I knew he would. so glad you did not get your hands near that cutter bar. I loved how you ended this vlog with "night night Gurdy" bye bye for now.
Thanks SF! I probably got on too much of a soap box, but it was on my heart. I'll let the comments eat from now on. But it's nice to hear all of the encouragement and from others making a go of it the same as us. Thanks as always for being here and the encouragement. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving with your family!
You don't have to apologize for your equipment I have worked on machinery vehicles for 40 years and you are right about your husband he is an amazing mechanic it's easy to work on things in a nice shop with the best tools but to do it in less the perfect conditions takes real skill. You have a great family that's what makes your channel enjoyable
GOOD OLE GERTIE IS PAID FOR....... no need to say more !!
What is the meaning of that sentance ? Gertie did a good job ?
Exactly!!!
Bill White thx
AMEN! My Uncle used to say, "I run a lot of junk, but its paid for and repairs are cheap compared to payments with interest." The newer the equipment, the more expensive the parts are.
@@paulbarr3981
MrBarr this "MizMeredith's place" is my refuge from the KARDASHIANS and their IRKSOME ILK !! No "cat walk" just calf walking (and chasing)... some where she figured out a fulfilling life is spent not with the "bright and shiny" but the TRIED AND TRUE !!
Nothing feels better than winter sunshine..
Makes no difference how you finish the race just as long as you get to finish line you have passion for what yall do keep it rolling
Oklahoma here. We love debt free and don't have new cars, trucks, tractors . While i have friends that live with large payments and they always seem stressed out finding money. as you everynite good to bed with a smile of fredom. Thanks for keeping it real.Great video. Living a dream
I'm from mendonca mi.really enjoy yr vids
Have alot of respect for you guys being a farmer's!
Watching that Gleaner run brings back a lot of memories. I have friends who still run Gleaners. Ya'll have a great looking cattle heard & take good care of them. Ya'll work hard & your kids do their part which is priceless.
I tell others often if you're not having breakdowns, whether new or older equipment, you're not farming much.
You are not wrong. With the introduction of computers, sensors and cables, manufacturers have taken a lot of the simple repairs out of the farmers hands. And on another topic, your farm and operation might be considered small to you, but yours is considered very large to small farm operators. We all have the same heart.
When I see the ingenuity and repair capability of “The Farmer “ and the work he does to keep your old “paid for” equipment working I think of Bloomberg’s recent statement that to be a farmer you just put a seed in the ground and wait for it to come up. He should try doing LB’s work for a week.
Thanks for representing Canada! We are not all Eskimos living in igloos on the tundra. It's the same as you get.
Elmo is getting so big now. He's a super cutie!
👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 well said Meredith keep on farming🤠
Most the TH-cam channels I prefer to watch are about farming. My dad was a truck driver (crude oil) but managed to run our small farm. He never did the farming himself except for a couple of years. We always had live stock (pigs, cattle, ducks and chickens). Thats how my mom and dad managed to raise 8 kids on a farm. Most the boys in the family either worked our farm or were hired by farmers, mostly bucking hay bails in the summer but some of us put in crops. Anyway farming is a good life, one to be proud of doing and choosing to pursue. I’m glad to see you and your husband chose to work the farm and better yet home school your kids. Your doing a great job. Good to see Lawrence kick up his heels now and then. Thanks to you both for sharing your lives..
Congrats on finishing the beans and for sharing a great harvest 2019 . ☺Huntsville Ontario Canada 🍁 👍
We enjoy watching as a family and my 9 year old daughter loved watching your little girl get her ears pierced and learning to ride her bike! From pleasant plain Ohio outside of Cincinnati
Forget the negative comments your doing great love trying to understand Lawrence
With every video of you and your family...You make my heart smile.
Yay, “Galloping Gertie” rides again.
Great video. Your followers that don’t like your equipment don’t have a dime in any of it. I was raised on a farm in Lucama,North Carolina and my family farmed 100 acres of tobacco and row crops with older equipment. We had a lot of repairs to make yearly but we made it. You and the farmer are doing the best you can and that’s what matters.
The big farmers have nicer newer equipment, but are in debt over there heads. I respect and appreciate a farm like yours and love the way you raise your children on the farm with chores. You are a beautiful and hard working lady. Stay focused on what the Lord leads to and trust in the Lord and you will never be wrong.
When times get tough, it's good not to have that equipment note at the bank!
Your Farmer is a man of few words, but wise words! He’s a great guy. With a great support team!
