Your drone footage is outstanding, as a city dweller have learned so much about farming, thank you and your wonderful family!
I’m an old semi driver & my word of advice to you is when you’re dumping that load always put your seat 💺 belt on!!! Because if worse case scenario happens when that dump bed is up and in case of a tip over (Heaven forbid) at least you’ll be safer with your seat belt on. Just a tip & it’s always better to be safe than sorry & end up with unnecessary injuries. 😉
I wear it on the road, but then unbuckle to unload because I have to get out and unlatch the back door.
@@acresofclayhomesteadyeah that’s understandable but I noticed when you was dumping you didn’t have it on. I was thinking 🤔 OMG if that thing tips over on the passenger side it’s gonna slam her outta that seat against metal and hurt her badly. So please for your protection wear it During dumps, on the road or on uneven ground.
Another great harvest vid Ronda. Good to see Kevin, Ethan and Sander. I no Mckenzie has a job, but she has been a ghost lol. Hope she is well. Even though we didn't see her we could tell speed racer was driving the red truck lol. Good to see all the family helping out during harvest. The drone footing was awesome great job. Thank the whole family for sharing your days with us.
This family never ceases to amaze me. Nothing but cooperation and hard work to get the job done.
If Farming was Easy, Everyone would want to do it. We ALL know that’s NOT the case and only the Strong 💪 and Determined individuals can Successfully Farm. 👍🙏
You are always fun to watch and all the work yall do I still say you have the most beautiful eyes
If I were you, I would do some research on that motor and see if you could locate the manufacturer and check the manufacturer warranty I don’t buy the 30 day business.
Hey Rhonda just being nosy with the amount of feed your harvesting how many cows do you milk. Enjoyed the video as always.
Wow that seems like such a lot of work for all of you to do new respect for farmers
Ronda:
Everytime when you say you’re short on help I want so much to jump through the screen and help you and Kevin out, I have a CDL Class A drivers license plus I’m very mechanically minded , meaning I can operate equiptment too
But I’m glad everything worked out 😊❤
Thanks!! It always works out.
Thank You for sharing your family videos with us 😊
I think your cows need to send some thank you cards for all the hard work you do for them lol.
It must be a blessing on the heart when you have the help of your Dad, Kenzie and Ethan. Does Abbey operate any of the farm equipment? Where can I find the "Pray first" wristband you were wearing? Yesterday was baking day, 8 chocolate amish friendship breads with chocolate chips and walnut, and 2 more of the blueberry breads. May God continue to bless you and your family and keep you safe.
Abbey doesn't drive anything, yet... 😊
Ronda, I always love your videos and the explaining of what you are doing. You are a great teacher. You have quite the Silage operation going on and I love the drone footage that you provide. God Bless you and your beautiful family.
Amazing how much material goes thru the chopper! She's hungry! May all your dreams come true!
Thank you for the awesome content, love your faith in God and how you have raised your children in Christ, keep up the great work and God bless.
🇺🇸 You have every right to be nervous, those trailer dumps are treacherous but very useful. All you need is a proper amount of respect and hit ALL the grease zerks! I supposed I'd ever get the chance to say that with a whole family who are all mechanics of one grade or the other, LOL 😆. 👍🌽😉🙏
Great job, Rhonda! I can't believe they only had a 30 day warranty on that A/C motor (compressor?). Every automotive part I have ever bought had at least a 12 month warranty. Was that an OEM John Deere motor that went bad? I would sure be looking elsewhere for a new motor. Somewhere that stood behind their parts with a better warranty. Take care!
Felix here from Ireland love your videos over here in Nebraska helping friends for 12 days with the harvest driving a case tractor hope all is going well for yous!
Hey there pretty lady, doing outstanding job harvesting an running machines an not braking
You should let us know the name of the company that won't guarantee their motors over 30 days so we can avoid buying their junk that they won't stand behind. It doesn't even pay the labor it takes to install them for them to only work for 40 days.
I see the Newlywed is still Alive so apparently the Married Life is still Working for Ethan and his New(er) Bride. 😬👍
Wow! Calling in all the troops. Team work always pays off in the end. That's a huge field you guys are working in. Keep turning and burning, it'll get done. Cool now but another little warm up is coming. Hang in there and stay safe. God Bless you and your family.
You need to tell management you not running it till it’s fixed. They only let you chop when the ac doesn’t work.
Good morning Rhonda, I was wondering if you you all had a frost yet and you answered that question for me in the video, parts of Missouri had a light frost last week but this coming Monday and Tuesday we are supposed to have low temperatures of 24 and 22 degrees. Have a safe blessed day
Fantastic video, great you're able to get all available hands on deck for this important time the corn looks great, the silage looks great, the weather certainly looks great thanks Rhonda, Kevin, and the whole family for sharing this
What's the moisture like. Looks very dry?
Seatbelt is Super Important when Dumping to Insure 100% you Won’t Go Flying into the Passenger Window. 👍🙏
Your drone shots of loading everything gets thrown to the right side an you center it in the trailer a little more it might help with the dumping. And how do you get the drone shots a d drive at the same time. Have a safe and healthy day.
So nice seeing mom interact with her children and about farm. There best friend if she agrees. Or firece others. Sweet
Those Volvo trucks are beautiful!
that's why u buy new and get a warranty on it...
that would of been replaced if that was a new motor
That big chopper box will be nice when the ground is too wet for the trucks
How many total acres of corn proposed will chop?
Nice Farm We have a dairy farm in the thumb of Michigan
You did a great job ronda
Rhonda, how do you know when your trailer is full?
So great when the whole family pitches in.
Always try to jump on a level surface
Good morning 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞 sweetie 🌹♥️🌹🌹🌹
Full family operation. Sure has changed since the cob corn crib and silo filling days🙂
Hope you did not forget to put oil in the Aircondition?
Found your channel a few days ago. Enjoy watching your farm activities. I do try not to notice the green in your tractors and other equipment. The reason is I worked for 30 years at the JI Case /Case IH plant 64/94 in Racine Wisconsin as a Quality Assurance Mechanical Inspector. I came to Missouri in the USAF. My wife of 54* years is a farm girl Her late parents had Holstein milk cows. After my wife retired from her 25 years s an Elementary school teacher we moved to her home 500-acre farm here. During my Case career, we drove here to Mo from WI every summer to help out on the farm. 68/69 I served at Andersen AFB Guam on a B52 bomber during the Vietnam war. My wife stayed here on the farm with her parents taught school and did their shopping, cooking, and cleaning while her parents did the milking and field chores. It's here I learned how to run farm equipment for them and how to hand shovel out the milking parlor holding pens!
We rent our farm out to a beef cattle farmer for grazing and a sharecropper hog farmer. Great Mom and family. PS my wife loves watching you too. Hello to all your family. We bought an Instant Pot too, and we love it.
Welcome to our channel!!
You are so beautiful pretty lady
Please be careful God bless from Graeme
Great work Everybody, as always, have a good week👍🙏🙂
You mentioned your pressure cooker. The first thing I cooked in mine was beef stew and it was fabulous! The second thing I cooked was pinto beans seasoned with ham hocks. I have never bought ham hocks in my 64 years but it turned out great with some cast iron corn bread!
Yum!!
Oh my bad I think we did get a small shot of Mckenzie driving the red truck with Dakota as shotgun.
Yes, she did drive a little on her day off. 😀
Sure wish I could help, you just don't know how I miss those days. Loved the video
Thanks!
Thanks for posting
Thanks for sharing.
Headed to a low of 22 tonight ,first hard freeze in Central MN. I have heard of people wait 20 days and then take back bad motor on the latest receipt, I would never do that though of course ,atleast that the story I'm going with
Gotta love a woman who takes her pocketbook to the fields !!! great video !!!
😄😄
Hello & thx 4 sharing, love the bird's eye view from the drone. Good idea not moving while dropping the dump box. 🙂
Wow, Ronda how many acres of corn do you all farm plus hay?
really enjoy the drone footage. Extra help so Sanders can drive the tractor & trailer to & from the field
You need a rechargeable batter operated fan to blow on the driver. I don't like Amazon but they have several different kinds of battery fans that could cool ya down a little bit on the cheap. Just for these occasion.
That's something about the ac motor, I just don't think that's right. The advice on lowering the wagon was a good one, always nice to get good advice. The aerial shots were fantastic, loved them, such beautiful scenery. Looks like things are going well for you all, hope it continues going good, thanks for the video, have a wonderful week.
Awesome job everyone 👍were you chopping and flying the drone?loved the drone shots 👍Aloha from Hawaii 😎🤙🏽🌴
Hi Ronda awesome video love hearing the chopper run. You should always run the chopper. God bless
Good morning ronda
Bravo Rhonda Acres of Clay family always the best filming, videos content and narration thanks for sharing blessings
Rhonda you have a wind broke spot to be. Does the heater work? Sounds like the dump cart and tractor are just what you need!
You should buy a used loader(16 tons) with duals to press the bunk. Those small tractors are too light.
Thanks for the video. How did the dump trailer work out?
Hello AOC family, I hope shopping is going well for you guys and things are good in Michigan!
Excellent job ronda and family of hard workers
are you not afraid that one of the tractors pushing up would get to close to edge an slide down and overturn ? hope not. you and the family be safe and take care
Boy I miss all the farm life doing the milking and doing field work to .
You have a heart of gold. It’s very evident in your videos.
That person was absolutely right.
As we would say over here in Ireland "You have a lovely set up there!"
You all did beautiful job and every one work as a team to get the things you need to get things done for today and did your best have a nice day
Your drone footage is great .we are trying to get feilds done here in northeast Michigan
What is the name of your other channel? Thank you for the videos and stay safe.
It called Acres of Clay Kitchen.
thankyou
How many acres of corn did you plant this year?
It was funny to see the progression each day of you putting on more clothes as it got colder. Love the music you play with the drone shot footage. Where's Abbey?!?! We miss seeing Abbey give Ethan a hard time!!! (Ha!Ha!)
I just realized that I started the video with just a tee shirt and ended with a winter hat on. 😄
Isn’t it great that family can help out 😎
very nice video of chopping your corn silage and love the drone footage
🥰
awesome mature whole corn plant chopping # the drying effect of cold temperature is not understood since moisture in corn leaves & corn grain evaporates in hot air instead of cold # nevertheless U R looking gorgeous ❤️ Rhonda # 👍 by the way music kills the segments of video #
It would be silent if I didn't add music.
That’s a big corn pile!!!
One busy family right there!! love it
Great video Rhonda. Nice to have some extra help. How do you like the instapot ?? Y'all take care and have a blessed day and I'll see you on your next video
I'm loving the instant pot!! Made pork chops in it last night. 😀
So you get to drive a truck in the field and you get a chance to make meals. You are amazing. You also make videos to share with us. Thank you for what you accomplish farming. 😊
Thanks for taking time to watch!!
That some dry ass corn?!
NO, not at all! I mentioned that it was froze.
Rhonda I assume the little gear jammer did the highlights on your hair she did a fantastic job it looks very nice!
Yes, the highlights were done just over a year ago. Going back to natural hair...
Please be sure that y'all wear your seatbelt
👍👏👏👏
I thought you had very pretty corn. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What are you planting in Oct?
We are planting cover crops. Rye and clover.
If you have no AC and it's hot in there try a bikini. Just a thought now don't block me love your videos
Sargum....been awhile
Nice Cart that Ethan was working on, is this staying on the Farm or selling it? He did a great Job on it.
Yeah those 30 day warranties!!!! ;)
We will be keeping the cart. Just in case we have mud.
@@acresofclayhomestead Just in Case? You live in Michigan! I will just leave this here :)
Great vid! Keep the deere running
A hard working family
Love this family
👍
Rockin w the corn
Do you know where the milk ends up being sold
Leprino Foods

You all are busy bee's!! Sorry got a kick out of the Mrs having her purse with her while out cutting then driving truck. 😝. Your family amazes me every video just how you both have them a work ethic that will last a life time and get them out of stuff most younger folks complain about! Take care and be safe!
I gotta have something to put my snacks in!! 😆
