Dawn To Dusk | A Short Film About Farming and Family in the Midwest

- Dawn To Dusk is a compelling short cinematic film focused on farming and family. What is it about living in the country that brings families together?
This short film was shot in Iowa during harvest season in the fall of 2017. The farmer and his family lives a complex life. From feeding cattle, working hogs, driving truck, and growing crops, farming is a lifestyle that requires around the clock work. So what is it about working from dawn to dusk, and sometimes later, that makes a farmer so happy with their life?
Listen to inspirational farming stories about raising family on a farm, creating your own destiny, and living off the land while watching 4k drone harvest footage in this short film about harvest.
This harvest film, which takes place in Remsen, Iowa is dedicated to Lee Grage and Joe Staab, two farmers who recently passed within the last year. - บันเทิง
A very awesome video. It's actually one of the best farming/ag video I've ever seen on TH-cam. Go ahead!

"If you can't get up, get up an hour earlier and work an hour later" I love that!
To be a farmer is not just a job. To be a farmer is a kind of "LIVESTYLE" !!!
It’s sad to see very little farmers anymore and they are under-appreciated
I totally understand the part about the whole family working. I'm 15 and out in the field mowing tedding raking and picking up bales until sometimes 3 am before the rain comes. Never a day off. City kids don't understand what we do. Thank you for this video.
Sounds like you love what you do!
@@brende_films yes I do. Wouldn't have it any other way. God bless and stay safe.
Most people don’t realise how important you are in life. Without you and people like you we’d all be farmers. And frankly your abused by society financially. But thank you for the food on my plate.
@@codyplagerman8215 I have the same passion as you do about farming. I was born and raised in Las Vegas NV and we don't have any farming here but I wanted to be a farmer all my life. For 5 years I would leave Las Vegas at 4am to drive to Salt lake City Utah in my 2008 Chevrolet Kodiak with a 53ft gooseneck flatbed trailer to pick up 400 2 string bales of hay to bring back to Las Vegas before I was home with the load of hay all of it was already sold. The day's I wasn't hauling load's I would be in the field helping with whatever they need done. I did all this with a broken neck and back because I got hit by a drunk driver. I would do anything to work on another farm. The owner of the farm I worked for died and the family lost everything that they had. I miss everything about farming Because every single day was different no matter what
@@cntslesfabrication you get it. We work when no one else wants to and do the stuff that needs to get done. I'm sorry about what happened. Keep your head up and keep workin. God bless and stay safe.
Brende,
My Dad was born and raised in Plymouth County, Iowa. Remsen is his home town. Thanks for the documentary!!
I now hear my true calling, as God intended from the beginning, to eek a living off the land, the family farm.
Well put Jeff!
I'm from rural Pennsylvania and this portrays the American farmers beautifully. Too many people don't realize the hard work, the compassion and brilliance of a farmer. My daughter moved to Nebraska after college to continue her love of this life. She fell in love with cows. I don't know many with bigger hearts or harder work ethics than farmers. Thank you for capturing how special farmers are.
While I am eating couscous made of corn semolina for lunch . In Morocco we plant corn but these last 20 years the harvests are very poor because of the drought .So;
we import most of grains from the USA . The American society should be proud of you ;you guys feed the world
best regards
May God Bless them. I grew up on a farm and how I wish I was there once again
Beautiful video. Made think about my great grandpa and his farm. I wish he wouldve lived long enough to share that joy with me
Farmed 61 years raised our 4 kids like you our sons know farm 3500 acres there wives are awesome love it
Boys harvesested 300 acres 55bu beans yesterday amazing
Thank you Famers ( that's ladies and gents) for putting this film together
and the long hours to finish harvest.
I'm praying that you prosper in soul, body and finance this year
God's grace.
For me, theres nothing better than seeing the sun set when I'm in the wheat field, loading the cart then carting it to the sheds. Man, that's just so satisfying
God Bless the Family Farmers
Great agricultural video , awesome cinematography, perfectly done
Greetings from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳farm community
There’s nothing more rewarding than good old hard work! Loved this video, thanks for sharing.
The entire world owns the Midwest farmer ... endless respect and admiration. The Midwest Farm is the most under appreciated human on the earth. How my babies and families are fed, because these families are good at farming?
I come from a family farm and I can really relate. I don’t farm now but I understand your rewards and heartaches. Thank you for all you do.
A great piece of work there! I wish I had grown up in a farming family. The hard work ethic, the love of God & family.
Real American Legends.
Farming is More satisfying than any Office job
Thank you for this video
started feeding calves when I was 3 or 4, was driving tractor raking hay at 5.... been running day to day operations since I was 16 or 18.... so I guess I've been at it for 50 years.
up until June 26, 2018, dad was still in charge.... he dealt with all the BS.. government paperwork, land owners, marketing, making sure we had everything we needed to get things done.
been almost thirteen and a half months. Mom's the boss now, and I've had to take over about 90% of the BS dad did. I have all the headaches now.
would I trade it for the world? No!!!!!
are we struggling? YES!!!
why?? same reasons as everybody.... can't get good help (given up on that!!! it's just family now). Input prices are too high, crop prices are too low, this is the second year in a row that production is down (half of normal yields last year, about a third of normal this year).
why do we do it? because that's what we do. we feed the world!
thank you for the awesome video!!!!
great content, great editing!!!
How's the yield this year?
I’ll stick with playing video games all night and sleeping all day lol
@@bigd158 2019 was 1/3 to 1/2 of normal.. we ran out of hay before pasture..
@@ryanjones9498 that would drive me Crazy.. LOL
@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin dam I feel for you man
Awesome movie! Love it.
Really captures the whole family effort it takes to run a farm. Harvest being hopefully the most exciting time. Hard life, stressful, long hours, all on a gamble
Love. It!!! Shared ot with my senior friends. It brough back great memories for everyone.
thats great to hear! thanks for sharing
Great video!
Really enjoyed this. God bless the farmers.
Outstanding!!! Thanks for sharing a small part of the great lifestyle of American Farmers. It always amazes me how people that live in my agricultural driven community look down on farmers. I’m proud to be an American Farmer!!!! God bless us all.
The American farmer ... the most under appreciated human on the Earth. From a Illinois farmboy who became a mechanical engineer ... I prefer to be a Farmer.

Very good movie. I enjoyed this a lot! A good mix of real and sentimental
My grandparents had a poultry farm my family had a small farm plus all my neighbours were tobacco, strawberry and cotton farms.i remember helping out at my grandparents and earning some money during the summer helping out the neighbors but I think more strawberries ended up in my tummy.😜 It's hard but a very rewarding experience.
If you ever made this available as a download or dvd I bet people would buy it. I know I would!
Beautiful footage & incredible storytelling.!
My hat is off to such hardworking folks.
Thank you for sharing.
Great tribute to the American Farmer !!!! Educational 1
Thank you.
Bless you GOD, all the Midwest families.
Love from IRAQ.
Love this thank you
Your farm is amazing. You can see the pride that you take into your work.
Always feels proud of being a farmer.
Real life farming video , brought back fine memories of my uncle and aunt on their farm
Wonderful! I live close to remsen, I feel this. Deeply. Thank you
The harvest is so romantic.
Wow, truly breathtaking, by far one of the best ag videos out there
Love this!!! I have farmed for 45 years
Awesome video, reminds one of the reasons we are doing it for, besides all the trouble with Politics, uneducated consumers and other city folks and other day to day problems!
Go ahead!

Thanks for watching!!
Totally awsome put together video,I used to work in the Riverina of New South Wales in Australia,we harvested wheat,barley,oats,lupine,canola and field peas,similar country,same people(with a different accent),the backbone of the nation,without a doubt. You my friend captured the essence of this life,well done
Thank you James! I'm sure there is a lot of similarities in the culture and lifestyle of farming in different areas of the world. I'm glad this video not only speaks to farmers here in the Midwest, but across the globe as well.
James Zeschke i’ve never heard of lupine, what is it ?
This is a great video! I love the narration you've done here! Keep it up! ;)
As a farmer's son I would love to experience one harvest in the USA, here in Belgium everything is so tight and small we rarely have space to pass each other, nevermind driving with duals or big tractors like you guys.
I'm proud to say that I grew up on a farm and learned skills that will help me throughout my life.
God bless every farmer and every person who is good to us.
Looking for some more of the farming interview videos I wish you would make more like always enjoy watching it
beautiful insightful and wholesome : )

This is an amazing short film
Great video Josh. As a fellow NW Iowa farmboy (Hull), it was good to see the farmers back home at work. I really miss the harvest. Would love to jump back in a tractor and haul corn to the bin into the late hours of the night.
Thank you, Kevin! Harvest is a special time of the year!
I have watched this video several times as I absolutely love it.
Thanks Chris, thats great to hear it's something you can watch more than once!
Man I want to live in the country. I’m sick and tired of the city, people exhaust me. And that starry night looks beautiful, something you don’t see in the city
Being able to see the stars is something I don't take for granted
Let's go #FARMERS#WORLDWIDE WE HAVE TO FIGHT AS ONE
Thanks for sharing something I've always wanted to do

Dawn at dusk. a romantic name for the small film but very gratifying to see the work being performed with joy I am not a farmer but I work with irrigation systems I am electrotechnical amount of irrigation pumps I do installations of Pivot VALLEY and other Brazilian brands I work a lot at night usually until the body can see the stars as you know we see different ceilings because I live in the southern hemisphere and you in the north, we have the common only the American continent, I thank you for sharing a little of your life and families ( Saudações de Brazil) Greetins from Brazil
Thanks for sharing Antonio! I'm sure you found some of this film relatable.
Excellent video. And some amazing land
It will always be home.
An awesome video, and a compelling presentation. As a soldier, i have seen the hard work needed
to keep things going without all the help needed, and the perseverance of those who feed the rest
of us. We appreciate what you do, and are forever in your debt. All these videos about this subject have given me so much respect for all you do, and I say we'll always be in debt to the farmer.
Appreciate the kind words Bud!! That means a lot.
only one word "excellent"
I always want to be a farmer thank you
This is very moving! I'm on the early stage of my families path.....and this pushed me further!
you got it!
thanks for this it is the perfect way to sum up farming
Thank you so much!
Really amazing cinematography, can't believe you're only at 23k views. Great interviews with real men.

Very well done sir! Nice to have a meaningful video without the stereotypical music soundtrack. It's great to hear from the farmers and hear the equipment. Hope you can do another one!
Thanks Brandon! I never had any intention of this video turning into what it did while I was filming. Just kinda winged it.
@@brende_films Well good luck with your future projects. Belive me there is a big desire for work like that. If you ever did a full documentary it would huge!
Very good video wish they were more like this that tells the story of farming thank you for narration of this video
Appreciate it Chuck! I was tired of the montage farming videos with music and wanted to create something that had a little more meaning.
Brende l Ian am to you done and excellent job look forward to more of your videos thank you again
Amen this hit home I’m a farmer from Michigan and it is so true all the back breaking work we have to do every day and then some

West of Paraná state BRAZIL 🇧🇷 very good video
"It takes a hell of a man to make something out of nothing" To make a crop out of bare ground! To have the faith to plant a seed and watch it grow.
Couldn't have said it better!
That's what European immigrants did to this continent. The settlers were pioneers , unlike the new wave of immigrants from 3rd world country we seeing now.
Fourth generation farm kid from Illinois, lost the farm to the stepmother after my Dad passed. She has a couple nice houses in Florida and a new boyfriend.
Awesome 😊
