What Do You Think About Super Clean?

After this video, they should compensate you accordingly , or a lifetime supply ☺️
SuperClean works circles around Purplepower, l will never waste my money on Purplepower degreaser again!
Didn’t look any different and the wheels seamed duller and it looked like a film left on the rims….Wasn’t impressed
I use super clean alot, if you leave parts in it long enough at full strength it works good as paint stripper
Dam I wish I could wait until the end to comment instead of every 2 minutes and end up with a pile of comments. The reason I stopped because you mentioned about your income. Just so you know I'm only bringing it up because you mentioned it. So ya you mentioned a few sources but what about UA-cam do you make any money from it. That's only if you want to say. I will try to make this the last comment until the end 😂 no guarantee though lol
Catch sheep or counting sheep. There's my sense of humor again 😂👍🇨🇦
I bet you wish you had that Super Clean a couple days ago when you were making this video 😂👍🇨🇦
I think it worked well and I think I will try it
I use super clean stuff it does what it says.
You can pray for him if you want. Hes the type of guy to dance on your grave to get a couple bucks. There are evil people in this world and good people but you cant forget who could be out there.
I LOVE that you have trust!!! The jar and product out for people to be honest and buy, GREAT!!!!! You are trusting, and make maple syrup..... you sure you are not Canadian? ;)
Busy day on the farm but it looks like to me you and the children were having way to much fun on the trampoline, just kidding.
Love your channel, Mick, Leeds UK.
Gabe is so sweet.
Congratulations!
My son is 33 and we still make time for him….it is so important. Great advice and you have trampoline skills 😉
How long did the couple of minutes at the trampoline last😉?
I'm only good for about 10 minutes!!! I'm so out of shape it's not funny. Thanks for watching! Kevin
What a cool surprise. Unfortunately I can't check this out now but you can be darn sure that the minute I get a chance I will be there. Again what a decent surprise 👍🇨🇦
Gabe! Thank you for the awesome drawing that is now on our fridge! The rye barrel syrup arrived in record time. Love and blessings from Nebraska!
Madmommy, you made Gabriel's day! Thanks for supporting our farm with your syrup order! It means a lot to us! And thanks for watching our videos! Kevin
You are like a well oiled machine. You had everything laid out before hand. Prepared I guess you could say. I hope that I'm ok with my sense of humor. I was going to say that good job and you were able to count ail the birds without having to take your shoes off 😜also I am cerious as to why you waited until later in life to have children. Is that something that you would consider talking about? If not I totally get it. I just have so many things that I'd love to ask you. Finally if I were to order a t-shirt (that's only if you have them) I don't want to try to find out because if I do I would probably screw it up and have to start all over again. But if you do do they get shipped right from the manufacturer. I guess it's possible that you make you own TShirts but is more than likely you don't. The reason I ask is because I think that if you were to autograph it it would be the coolest thing ever. Just a thought. See you in the comment section of your next video 👍 🇨🇦
Hopefully this isn't a stupid question. What about in the winter when it comes to water. You are not that south so you must get frozen up pipes and whatnot. It's got to make an already tough job all that worse. As a farmer it's must never end. Even if you get sick or whatnot you still have to tend to the animals. A big thumbs up to you and all the other farmers out there. Without them it would surely be a much different world. Probably for the worse as well. So ya hats off to the men and women who feed this world. Just like people get all butt hurt over all the trucks on the road because without them you are in for a world of hurt. Keep up the amazing work and super hat's off to you and your family. Some way some how I absolutely have to get mom down there. It would be life-changing and something she will never forget. As I said before that since we lost dad she has never been the same. I get it she is no different then alot of people but I always try to do my very best for her because she deserves it. Errrrrr another one of the book long comments 😜👍🇨🇦👎
Come on dad can't we get something with a motor to grind stuff up 😂. I'm only at that part of the video. I will probably be back again before I finish lol
Here in Denmark we used to have a lot of those honor stance shops. Most were run by locals that just wanted to make a little extra by selling local produce yet within the last ten to fifteen years they have practically all disappeared because instead of paying people started to steal to the point were instead of making the locals that extra money it were actually losing them money.
Welcome to the channel Darth_Yoda... Love the name! I was not far from shutting down our farm stand. When I figured out it was one person, that changed my mind. Whether we can change his or not, that's a different story. But for the vast number of folks we serve, both our sellers (farms that sell through the stand) and the buyers, I would not want to lose this opportunity at something that is a blessing to all involved. Thank you for watching and sharing what goes on in your country. I means a lot to me. Kevin
@@MillGapFarms You're welcome and yeah it's awesome that you keep going even though you have this guy doing this. As I said it sadly gotten so bad here that the stands couldn't go on. One person on national television told that she in one week had her stand raided three times were the person(ens) would come by empty the stand of everything produce and money that the stand over in one week lost around 680 USD worth of sales and produce, which covered farm produce to hand knitted items and hand craved items made by her kids.
Here in the middle of no where convenient to nothing, this seems to still work. I was disappointed to see the fellow steal our merchandise (alpaca products) and of course our syrup. And in all honesty, if he needed it, we would give it to him. And we would do the same for others too. Obviously this was not a need. We will continue to keep our stand open as long as we can. It doesn't produce a lot of income but it does speak volumes about our community and what we believe. Thanks for watching and letting us know where you are from. It's a blessing to hear from you! Hope you will stick around the channel. Kevin
New guy back again. Not sure if you have seen some of my comments talking about my dear Mom. Since I found your channel and showed it to her I can clearly see that she enjoys everything you share. I just wanted to thank you for that because she really does deserve it. I would give anything to get her down to your B&B it would be an amazing thing for her. She would be so gitty knowing that she is going and then the momorys from being there. I'm not saying that in hopes of getting it free. I would never expect it and she would have no part of it. I know that I've been flooding your channel with comments but just seeing how much she enjoys it makes it priceless. Also a few days back I made a comment about a bra and I sincerely hope that I didn't offend you or your beautiful wife. I would have never NEVER would have said anything the only reason I did is because it came up on one of the videos so inturn I thought it would be acceptable. I'm terriblely sorry if I offended you or your wife you children and each and every one of your subs. Anyway you haven't been responding to me since. I'm hoping that it's because you are super busy and that's 100% understandable. Please forgive me if I was out of line for saying this. This has been one of the best thing's in alot of time and most of the reason is that I get to see mom smile and be happy. She's not the same since dad passed. I know that she's no different than alot of widows but she is my mom and my world so I'm beyond greatful for what you do. I'm terrified to have to tell her that because of a comment I made destroyed it. I know that it sounds so dramatic but it's because it is. Anyway see you in the next one and hopefully hear back from you. Enjoy your week. I was going to say something about the weekend then got thinking that you are a farmer so it doesn't matter what day it is. The chores still have to be done. The fact that you go the extra mile of sharing it with us all. That's a real true blue honest say it how it is farmer. Even though I'm in a different country doesn't mean that I don't respect you and all the other's out there
Hello New Guy, Last week was a difficult week for us. we bottled close to 2,000 bottles and labeled them too. And delivered some of them which took about 12 hours. Then over the weekend Emily and I both got sick. I'm almost recovered but she is hurting. We will be better soon but things have stacked up. You are correct, weekends or not chores still need to get done. We are milking 2 cows at the moment. One is headed to a friends about the 2nd weekend in September and that will free up about 2 hours per day. So that you know, I've not been able to answer many comments over the last week or so. I did boot two folks off the channel. One for calling me a stupid farmer and another for calling me lazy. I'm not offended by what they said but more so the manner in which they did it. Believe me I do a lot of stupid things but by no means am I stupid... The goal for our channel is to share our lives and Christ. The fellow who called me stupid also attacked my faith. Believe me when I say this, it's ok to have differing opinions and faiths but it's not ok to beat each other up over it. Let me get off my soap box... Thanks for watching our videos and commenting. We are grateful for your thoughts. We are thinking about doing another live stream soon. Not at 9pm and not on a Wednesday... We may be able to do one next week. This week is fair week for us. We have some equipment in the fair and our daughter is dancing in it. Between regular farming work and that, we are swamped. We will be in touch soon. You know where we are and I don't want you to share personal info in comments. How many hours away from us are you guys? Thanks, Kevin
@@MillGapFarms are you kidding me. Please you spent way too much time on responding to me. Hey don't get me wrong I absolutely love it but I just feel greedy for it. I can't imagine the work you put in. I'm a 30 plus years as a heavy truck mechanic and I get tired just watching you guys. Ty for explaining all that to me. We aren't all that far just east of Toronto. Anyway I gotta go share this with mom 👍🇨🇦
I just can't get enough of your channel. Ty for putting this up for the world to see 👍 🇨🇦
Thanks New Guy! Kevin
If he steals from you no telling how many others he's stolen from. The driver should get charged also for being an accessory.
So disappointing when people like this take advantage of others that work hard.
Love to see all the support and I love the honor system you use. I wish I could drive by and get some Maple Syrup
We can mail you some Mr. Benson. We don't have much left but we have some. www.millgapfarms.com. Thanks for watching our video and leaving your comment! It means a lot to us. Kevin
...I make maple syrup in Illinois. Them trees will grow anywhere with plenty of water.
How do you sell your syrup GetFitEatRight? Thanks for watching and sharing your comment. Kevin
I would name the new arrival Slater because of that slate-black color. Congrats and have a wonderful week!
Thanks for your suggestion. Slater is a neat name! Kevin
That great info❤
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching! Kevin
Momma can be “Espresso” and baby can be “Bean”.

Isn't organic maple syrup redundant? I believe all maple syrup is organic. ❤

That mama cow looks like a Brigette to me. The new baby cow is so cute. My advice to you is “ don’t eat yellow snow or hay in a cow meadow “ Enjoying your videos!!!
First, that is some beautiful land. I agree Sunday would be a great name.
I think Sunday sounds like a great name too!
I so enjoy watching your videos. They are inspirational and heart warming. Thank you for letting us into your world. ❤
I think Sunday would be a great name for the Heifer, cause it is a gift from God on his day. Great video, and have a Blessed Day.
Go to your local news station and give them the footage with the guy's face... News outlets LOVE stuff like this. They may air it and shame the guy, in which case, people who know him will recognize him. If the law won't go after him, he'll at least be shamed in the court of public opinion. I'm sorry for you and your trusting community, that this pathetic slob of a human has continually ruined the nice thing you do.
Happy Birthday to Heifer Without a Name’s baby! Welcome to your family’s farm!
So cool! Oh no, thats gross, don't stick that in you mouth. Since biscuit is the father, mama could be named Gravy. Baby could be Buttermilk, then you would have Buttermilk, Biscuits and Gravy. Lol
So cool
