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. With growing consumer awareness about where their food comes from, Zach has identified the need for an independent voice from the front lines of agriculture. Zach actively promotes agriculture by sharing his day-to-day experiences in the agriculture world while providing farmer-to-farmer education to help facilitate a collaborative conversation between farmers and the public.

Timelapse was friggn sweet, Congrats on the new shed Zach she’s a beaut. 🤘🏻🇺🇸🦅
Thank you!
Hats off to the editor of your videos. We did get to see a preview of the shed on those young girls video that did a farm visit. It just popped up once to watch so I can't remember their names.
@@MillennialFarmer that ain’t moist. THATS SOUP
@@MillennialFarmer said
As a builder it’s nice to see you stay back and let the crew. Do their job.
I remember watching cole cornstar and his family trying to be hands on and in the builders face every day and then wonder why there was issues.
I wanted to kick their ass. Lol
Totally agree
That Timelapse was amazing. Farmer down the road about a mile just put up a very similar building. We were amazed at how fast the crew got it completed. They use all timber frame buildings on all the farms around us. We live in one of the most windy parts of our state, and I don't recall ever seeing one of those huge buildings give way to the wind. Congrats Zach, it really turned out nice. I love the colors you guys chose too.
If you are interested in construction of buildings like that check our RR Buildings, their attention to detail is pretty amazing and just two guys put up huge buildings pretty damn quickly!
Congrats 👏 to Zach with new shed, but true hero is Becky editing video. Kids stop messing with mom 👩
One of your best ever! Had no idea Morton did wood frame. Appreciate the finance info about your seed money and the time. I would like to see more about the finance aspect of your farm and how ownership works. Beautiful building. Now the insurer gets to start collecting more money to put with their other money to pay for PART of the next one. Great job Zach.
I'd like to include more financial stuff but I'm not sure how to make it entertaining or where to start!
@@MillennialFarmermaybe a special podcast or just a special episode where at the start you tell people it’s going to be an episode about financials. That may even draw a bigger audience. Cole’s biggest video was him talking about farm P&L
@@MillennialFarmer It amazes me on your Dad for example - it would appear he works his butt off. Does he get paid? It is tradition I guess? How about Jim and some others? Do they work at multiple farms? How do you borrow money? All kinds of things.
I don't think that is our business how much everyone is paid or your costs maybe just estimates would be okay like custom pricing would be ok
@@waynejones5239 exactly - an overview, general terms only.
That's one good looking shed. Major hats off to that crew, they sure worked efficiently! And I agree, wood frame buildings can be just as good as steel framing with the correct engineering, obviously cost plays a big role too. Steel is costly nowadays
Wood frame what, are you stuck in the 1920s. So you have major storms and using wood, I'm thinking this invisible God thing you yanks believe in is messing with logic, no logic here., what God wants will be,, what a crock.
@Jaguar 870 As someone who works in the construction and structural engineering industry, I can say that wood framing still dominates the industry as the go to material. Yes certain projects might require steel, but it is very costly and the project might not have the budget for it. Wood framing can be engineered to provide just as much support as a steel frame can. If engineered and designed correctly, wood frame structures can withstand some incredible forces, be it wind, snow, etc.
It looks just like the rest nothing special here
Materials and building codes are two different things. Wood would break before steel. More wood would require to match steel pressure test. Any material can be used to meet the code, one material might take more while other is less to meet snow load, wind, earthquake, etc... Comes down to budgets and plans.
I wanted to say thank you for all your hard work and what you do. I am recovering from a very difficult injury I watch a show every day and helps me get through so thank you very much God bless you and your family and your followers. NC sending you love
Great work. My grandfather loves your content haha, he's 85 with parkinsons and a retired farmer and it's the only thing he pays attention to these days, we have watched every video. From Belfast ✌️
Congratulations, Zach, on the new shed. It is a monster and will serve your family for many years. Small investment when you are stuffing it with $1M machines. Great video. Time lapse was really cool to see.
That time lapse really puts it into perspective. Glad you got it up. Can't wait to see it when you Tetris all the equipment in there.
Loved that game Tetris, puts your brain to work.
Who would have thought a half million people would watch a time lapse of a shed being built on a farm in the middle of Minnesota....... I watched it twice. Love you guys, and love the weathervane!
Great job Zach... sorry you lost your other building... but glad you're getting your new one ready to rock and roll.
Love the new building!! Something we did for our hydralic doors was plumb in some hoses that we could hook to the tractor incase the power goes out. Our area always has power outages. If you ever do that just make sure you add flow control valves for nice slow/smooth operation.
I just watched the last of the video, you might not need my idea if you have a back up generator. I really got to watch the video through before I give my input. 🤣 awesome shop!!
@@joshua89schultz still a cool solution if you do not have money for a geni.
We have the generator plus this door does have hydraulic connectors also!
WOW! Everything is right in the world again! What a beautiful building! No more sun baked paint for Zach's toys! LOL That door is awesome! That build team sure worked through some nasty conditions.
My family watched this video together, we are all happy for the Johnson family and their new machine shed. Thank you for that awesome timelapse video!
When it comes to heating a building I much rather have a wood framed building rather than a steel framed building I learned that after heating a steel framed building. The screws that fasten the sheet steel to the building is insulated by the wood but when the frame is steel the screws carry the heat from the building to the outside steel. But if you use a spray foam insulation on the I beams and sheet steel , instead of roll insulation between the steel sheets and steel frame you will not lose heat through the screws.
It must be lovely to drive around those backhoe’s with the special comfort and air-conditioned cab’s in the Minnesota winter….🥶
Very thoughtful of Zach to have the rifle ready in his new office, it’s giving some extra leverage when negotiating the price of seeds for the next season 🤪
Anyway, a great episode and nice that the shed is underway for the winter!😊
Need to move the safe to 'his' side of the office then. :)
@@RangieNZ That’s right, but unlike the mob he forgot to put some plastic over the carpet…😝😝
Well worth the wait Johnson family. Loved every minute of it!!
Great job to the guys and gals who made it happen. 👏 👍
That time lapse thing is pretty cool way off tracking the progress off your build!
Thanks for sharing it. I always enjoy your videos about your family farm. I watch them & have moments that I wish I still farmed at that scale. I’m a retired Farmer from Ontario, Canada. Farming was never a job for me but a passion & a way off life. My wife & I kept a 100 acres & we hobby farm which I enjoy and keeps me somewhat current of farming issues. Thanks too you & your lovely wife, Zac for making us part off your life of farming. You & your generation off young farmers make us proud! o Take care!
Shed looks great! I don’t know why it is but every time I do a building project it always rains too. Middle of a drought-three inches the day before you start.
The shed is awesome. I’m sure you and your dad n families are very happy and proud to see something that nice at your farm. Thanks for the video!
I really like the colors on your guys buildings. Also with steel buildings has anyone looked at the price of steel lately? It’s bonkers. Timber frame from American or Canadian lumber seems like a really good plan to me.
Yup...have to use treated lumber on the bottom though...rotten in 20 years and the walls get loose.
One thing for sure, the Timelapse really illustrates that these guys are being paid by the job. Not much wasted motion and not much regard for weather. Pretty impressive.
So, what I've just learned is that when a big sliding door comes off track is to pick up the phone because there's no good way to fix it without a crew! Really nice building!
Zach, what a production in the building process, a lot of work in not to nice of conditions. Glad to see you will have a nice home for all of that expensive equipment.
Knowing your new shed was being built I kept wondering when something would be posted. When I seen you had a new video I was glad for the update. Very exciting, and nice replacement.
Glad you getting it done before it get to cold
All of the old barns were post and beam construction. I was a truss designer for 20 years, and the steel trusses are far stronger than the wood. They do however cost around three times as much. I have designed thousands of both residential and commercial structures in the 20 years and am certified in both wood and steel trusses!
From experience, steel or wood, it doesn't really matter when a Tornado hits them, they all go to pieces just the same. Building looks great and that big door is awesome!
Thank you so much for the time-lapse video, this was a good one for sure. Congratulations to the builders for tireless struggles with the mud, job well done! Everything coming together nicely, thanks to you and Becky pulling and putting this video together we all enjoyed this and harvest firsts with kids harvesting too. 👍
Every carpenter in the world. It's cloudy, rainy, misty, snowy, frost. I'm not getting on that roof!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Morton crews,,,, hold my beer....Builds an entire structure in mud, snow, ice, gale force winds and ruts. Great job guys!!!!!
Best time-lapse ever! Congratulations on the new building.
It’s really interesting that the frame is timber. Out here in Australia, all our sheds are steel framed. Your new shed looks great!
Here in the southern U.S I can't recall ever seeing a modern would framed shed.
@@Dale37 TERMITES
Super common in Canadian prairies. Pole sheds are the most common shed put on farms for cold storage.
@@darkwood777 no termites on the tundra! Just squirrels and bears
Yeahhhhhhhhhh......Woooo Whoooooo!!!!!! So glad your shed is getting done for you guys!!!!!!! Happy For Dad, Zach and Becky!!!!! I know you guys have been waiting!!!!!
That is going to be Nice to be able to tuck all the equipment away and be able to have more room in your main repair shop over just storage. Also the builders need to invest in a couple lifts with tracks we have a local greenhouse builder that had a couple built years ago never get stuck anyhow building looks real nice love the hyd door
Very nice liked the time lapse. That's a awesome building 👏 congratulations to you and pop .
That is so dang awesome! Much respect to that construction crew for working in adverse conditions. Nice to see such great progress after some horrible storms.
Wow the new shop construction crew deserves some MnMFr merch! Hats, hoodies, or whatever they need to keep the new building rolling forward in that weather!!!
And probably some Millenial Farmer sponsored barley pops. lol Looks great Zack!
They can buy their own shit just like me or you lmao
@@masterbates7016 Little signs of appreciation can't hurt.. just sayin
Why do I get the feeling that dad wants to say a few extra choice words when the two of you are discussing ways to handle a new situation? Keep up the great job you and the whole family are doing. I really appreciate all of your hard work in putting together a video. Russ NE Ohio
Love the SimpliSafe commercial showing a completed shed during a video showing the start of construction of that shed. Genius!
I thought that was pretty funny too but the best part is all the comments that are hoping that he gets to shut down on time and hoping that he gets it done before the weather gets real bad. So many people commenting about hoping the shed gets finished in a timely manner and not noticing that the shed they were looking in at the beginning of the video was the finished shed
Love that building and just wanted to say I have been watching some of your older videos. The other night I watched the one where you were seeding your dads new lawn at his house on the lake, what a beautiful place that your folks have.
I’m sure you guys are super happy to finally have the new shed up! Looks awesome!
well that crew building the new shop were increddable the time lapse was very cool well done on getting it sorted almost before the real bad weather, be safe from the uk
Glad you are doing good and recovering well from the tornadoes
What about the inside? I assume that will be covered in another video. Thanks for sharing. If anyone is really interested in post frame buildings, check out R & R Buildings TH-cam channel. He does a full series on his builds. See the whole process from start to finish.
The new building is beautiful and spacious. And it's up just in time for winter. I loved the time-laps. At first I thought you were just going to come out every once in a while and take some video - then splice them together. LOL The adequate new generator will be way more convenient than several smaller ones. Good move.
From one Minnesota farmer to another, thank you for shining light on this profession.
After paying for your shed and seed that you had enough for lunch. Fantastic shed. There are many drooling over that building.
I'm super impressed with the crew that made this build happen! Our candyasses in California wouldn't show up!
The shed looks amazing Zach we got so much room for activities!
Its about time this caught up to the Facebook shorts. In that. Only thing left to do is the 2 windows in the 60' door
no windows
Good for you. I live just north of Albert Lea Minnesota and built Morton Buildings for 35 yours. I love both your channels thank you for your time.
The video I've been waiting for a week 😄.
Keep up your videos are the most interesting agriculture themed
Can anyone show up and get a check? Lol
Morton uses Machine Stress Rated (MSR) lumber and will have a Fb&E marking on it. Fb being allowable 10-year load duration bending stress parallel to grain and E being modulus of elasticity. Seeing a Morton building used to be an indicator of a successful farming operation and they're still held in high regards. Definitely a quality building.
In Australia you build a shed that size on a farm you put in a couple a 50,000 gallon clip together steel tanks with bladders to collect all that free water from that huge roof.
Thanks for mentioning the wood construction, it seems extremely strange compared to here in the UK, virtually all would be steel portal frame construction.
With a spacing of 7.5 ft compared to almost 20 ft or 6 m (19' 6") as we build in meters I suspect there's a lot more work.
Maybe it's cheaper to build in wood.
I'm surprised the builders were using a scissor lift rather than a cherry picker, no wonder it got stuck, it looked to have small wheels and would be more suited to a level concrete floor, ideal there tbf.
A 4 wheel drive cherry picker with larger wheels would have fared much better, maybe they had them in other jobs ?
Excellent time lapse! What a stunning shop you have there.
Nice one Zach! You guys in the US have an abundance of natural resources - Timber!
No surprise most of your buildings utilise timber. Good episode matey!
That huge door, I still cant get my head around your choice. That wind could cause havoc with the door. Then there is opening one end of the building to let one vehicle out or in..
Of course there is no concrete floor so am guessing its just s storage shed.
So excited that you guys get the new machine shop before the end of the year! That disaster can be put in the books and start the new year fresh!! ❤ say hi to dad and Jim :)
I really liked the music during the time lapse. Awesome!
Looks great buddy thanks for sharing
I wouldn’t sell the other generators you mentioned I’d keep them in case something happens or you would be able to help the neighbors out in a emergency situation because you have extra generators
Or just sell them to the neighbors so they don't have to rely on someone else lmao
Would be awesome to vicariously enjoy that new shed in the MFer map in Farming Simulator. Any chance there's gonna be a map update? That office location is perfect IMO because you can see who is coming down the drive, and run and hide if necessary.
Fantastic to see the new build finally arrive and get erected. What a fantastic Millennial idea when the build started to put the sliding doors on first to stop the snow driving through.
Wow love the building especially the hydraulic door. As a British farmer I simply can’t believe that you can a building that size from wood. Nothing bigger that a house is ever built from wood over here. The snow loading on that roof must be huge in winter, very rare we even get any snow these days.
awesome building, just curious if you guys have gotten any progress with when you will for sure have a new bin?
We are working on getting final quotes now ans hoping to replace the bin next summer!
I remember watching g the crew put up my parents 60'x120' storage shed. it's amazing how fast thise guys can get stuff done. Looks good Zach. little surprised you guys didn't concrete the floor.
WOW That time lapse was awesome !!!
good to see that the building is finally going up hope that it will be done very soon so you can put all the equipment inside (also becky does milk still come in bags) and do the kids always leave clips for you?
It's already done he showed that when the simply safe commercial was being done lol
I'm happy to see morton buildings out there, they built my shop a few years ago. The best in my opinion.
Congratulations Zach on start the new machine shed!
It's going to be a very nice building... would love to have something like that. not quite as big though.
Thank you for sharing this amazing 🤩 project. I'm so looking forward for this channel to hit 1M subscribers.
Time lapse was awesome we truly appreciate the effort you guys put into this channel
The way the weather changed looks like it was over a few months
I remember the crazy storm drama and all that came with it. So glad to finally see this building up! Keep up the good and honest work!! Congrats!
I built pole barns for 3 years after high school and you only work inside on the nice days! We would leave the crew truck running all day on really cold days and always had gloves drying somewhere!
Congratulations to the farm in the new shed and may the next year yield great crops! Much love from central Massachusetts! Timelapse was pretty neat! ❤
Time-lapse looks mint, 👌 hope this new build helps to keep your machines starting better
Holy whatsy batmen! That was frigging awesome!
Some team of lads! Unreal stuff!
Many happy tractor schuffling in the new amazing Buliding!
Nice to see the "in progress" video. It was even better to see the semi completed video in the beginning, thanks SimpliSafe. I used to work out of a shop that was almost as large and we had to constantly have the lights on during the day until we changed out steel panels for high mounted opaque panels for natural light. Great looking shop Zach!
My dad, brother, and I work for a excavation company, and we had a jobsite down in Lakeville to clear and grade out the land for a condo development that had a $800,000 house which was demolished and a 40x60 machine shed which we ended up taking it apart piece by piece. Except for the rafters which stayed whole, and hauling it a smidge over 100mi north to Milaca where it is becoming a 40x48 shop, eventually with insulation and heated floor it is hard work and those guys are WAAAYY quicker than us as we are just doing it on weekends, and with pretty much just skidsteers and ladders. Great video as always Zach! 🤙
Zack, wishing you and your dad nothing but the best. You have certainly earned everything you
Love the new Shed Zack!! Love watching them build it!!
I had a morton building in stalled last Thanksgiving best decision I ever made lo e your channel Thank You
I love how you added the new shed in the simplisafe ad
I had a Morton put up 32 years ago. Great quality. Flawless trusses. Efficient crew. One nice thing, had a tree blow down on it ~7 years ago. Lots of metal damage. Morton crew matched colors and replaced damage like new. Paint is tough as nails, too.
Question: Will you insulate/put vapor barrier under the floor? Heat the floor? Install a floor drain or two to catch meltwater runoff?
Yep, that's going to be just what you guys needed....👍
Was wondering what fuel your generator is set to use? Imagine it is designed to run 24/7 as long as it has fuel. Took about 5 days of binge watching to get to this one. You and Becky are a great couple. We just celebrated 48 years. Wish that for you and Becky plus many more. Your videos are up there with the Welkers and aTrippyFarmer, rock on! Pray all the best for y'all going forward. Excited to see how the new shed finishes out.
It might make sense that since they just installed another large LP tank...
that the generator be run off LP...
especially as the grain dryer cannot be run off the emergency generator ...?
@@JohnSmith-yv6eq Generally use LP automatic generators on a farm here in MN. Diesel fuel can be a problem if the power goes off in below zero temps.
That's a very impressive team of people to put that building up in that amount of time.
I drive delivery truck for morton, nice to see one of our buildings going up on your channel. Hope you like your new storage building.
I was a crane operator for a number of years and set a lot of roof trusses with a 60 ton Linkbelt truck crane. Fun jobs. Have a good friend that has 13 Morton buildings of various sizes. Top quality structures.
Zach, you got a put it in the outtakes your videos are great but you got a ending with those hilarious outtakes. It’s good to get people to laugh nowadays just thought I’d mention it.
I bought an excellent desk at a Canadian government surplus website. When I got directions for pickup I ended up at an Airforce Base...needed clearance, searches and basic background checks at the gate...we loaded it up and got home. It was full of military forms and paperwork... ironic
`Holy Smokes. The closeout of the video with that 60 foot wide door blew me away. 72 years old here and been around ag and trucking industry all my life and I've never seen anything like that. Kudos to your video making.
How neat is that... that's pretty neat! I picked up what you were putting down.. Love me some neature nuggets!
when I was in oilfield construction, we always put in a good layer of pit run gravel over the entire site; then built the facility on top of that gravel and finally good road crush on top of the pit run.. The pit run stood up better than crush thru the rain and snow and weight of the construction equipment, and created a good base layer to hold up to normal operation after.
Now that you got all this new space you need some more toys 😉 glad to see the sheds progress!
I believe it was all the toy acquisition that led to needing the monster replacement.
Talking about steel vs. wood building, the big reason is cost. I got a price on a steel pole building and it was twice the cost of the wood pole barn I ended up putting up.
That is one monster building
Hay we had a shop just get put up on our farm to here in iowa and it is so cool how fast they put a shop together like that
Great video. Congratulations on the building construction. Hope you get all your equipment back under roof soon.
