      Ain't gonna lie,I shed a tear because of the exact same reason. That's what our neighbors did for us when grandad got down and couldn't farm anymore. Eventually we leased all the ground but if it weren't for the help of even the neighbors who didn't like us lol, we would've been ruined. This is the thing about rural living that is the hardest to convey to people. Mostly I hope they never know because I protect this way of life very selfishly because it's so misunderstood and so important to me. It's good to see these kids now carrying on traditions and sense of community that I experienced as a kid some forty odd years later

      @@DougFLTRX that's what a lot of people are missing these days. I don't have to agree with your politics or personal preferences. I don't even have to like you. You're good to me, I'll be good to you. You need help, I'll lend a hand. We don't have to see eye to eye to just be good to each other.
      I can be on bad terms with someone, and will still go out of my way to help them in a time of need. I know what it feels like to be helpless. I also know what it feels like to have a stranger help me back up. I don't want anyone to ever feel the way I've felt before - so I do my best to help where I can.
      We need to continue to come together and build each other up. Period. That attitude is what I miss.

    Back in the 80’s when my Grandpa was having some health issues, he was able to get the crops In but not able to harvest and all of the neighbors and the neighboring Amish came over and told Grandma to not worry bout a thing, they had it covered and they did the same thing.
    This is what farmers do for other farmers when there’s a time of need. The rest of the country needs to take note and learn from Laura and everyone else in this video. And they do it without asking or expectation if money or anything else!! This is what we as humans are supposed to do when another is suffering but everyone has but farmers have gotten away from this and it’s all about what’s in it for me.
    Great video Laura, thank you for sharing

    @Laura Farms it is very nice to see farmers standing together to help each other out. Just last week, a burning campaign began against the farmers here in South Africa, especially in the Free State province. And we have seen how farmers and non-farmers stand together to help their brothers survive. Thousands of animals dead, hundreds of thousands of hectares burnt down which is very devastating. This is just heartwarming. Thanks for sharing.

    Hello from Germany!
    It's just wonderful to see how the farmers help each other. I think insurance is probably too expensive, then nothing is left of the profit. In Germany, too, the price of food is an issue that is actually always carried out on the back of the farmers. And then he can see how he gets along with it. In Germany, insurance is compulsory for anyone who operates a machine or vehicle. But even then there are often problems and not everything is replaced. Cohesion is required here. It's good that the farmers in America know each other and stick together.

This whole tragedy is un called for and getting out of hand, it's so sad people cant have different opinions and just respect another's opinion without all of this. I wish this farmer well, I dont remember his name or how to spell it now but I'm sure he did not deserve this.

      Well I guess it is similar to how it is on the race track, one guy had an incident and banged up his car and with no way to get it ready for the race.
      What happened? The crew from his competitors came over, helped restore car over the night to get it ready for the race the day after.
      The reasoning? "This race is to be decided in the track... Not in the depot / pits!"
      So I guess the farmers want the competition to be decided in the field! :D
