- Wondering how to start a farm from scratch? We created a successful, financially-self sufficient 45 acre farm to support our family, and here is how we did it.
-We do not offer farm tours or accept visitors
-We do not sell from the farm
-We do not ship our farm's products
-We do not sell live animals

I bought 2.88 acres and 12 buildings full of stuff that was collected by a hoarder. It's a former oxen farm. I paid $18,000 for it as is where is. It's going to be paid off next March. I'm going to start a small, hopefully self sufficient farm. So far I have made $7000 selling stuff I've found. Eventually it will pay for itself. I watch you for ideas and the jokes.
Not everyone is going to be a farmer, but everyone is able to learn from a farmer. Learning is important, for everyone, as is farming.
Practical business advice and instruction done extremely well. As a teacher, you are a natural. 👍🏻👍🏻
I was reminded of one of the scenes from the 1939 movie, The Wizard of Oz: The horse of a different color. I was pleasantly amused at the multiple shirt changes. 😁😎. My wife and I always look forward to your videos.
Pete, thanks for your story, and how to end up happy with what you love. As we get older, that means more than the younger folks realize
Pete: Loved the "We don't need no stinkin' --etc. " quote. You belie a hipness absent from your normal discourse! You and Hillary deserve all the kudos you receive!
Hi Pete, I really enjoy listening to your stories. I just spent the last hour watching older videos you made about your family living in your area and the fact that they actually built your original house. Keep making videos and I will keep watching them. There is just something about your farm life that makes it relevant to me even though I live in Central Florida. Thanks again.
Nice shirt. I'm a Hawkeye born and raised in Iowa still live there and know a bit about farming. I love your small family farm operation thats the way I was raised. Sadly most of those farms are now gone all bought up by the big guys with deep pockets farming thousands of acres.
Pete you combine 2 things I like in a teacher. You are a great communicator in word and in video and you do it wile you work. When ever I have had a student or a trainee I have always tried to talk them through the project but also show them at the same time. Until today I never realized you were 8 years younger than I.
Over the past year I have probably watched every video you have done and I can't think of one that I didn't like. From clock repair to crunching the numbers on a computer they have all been good.
Inspiring as usual. Thanks Pete
Love this form of video Pete! I can't wait to see that new bale trailer in action soon to:)
Loved the content of this video... and the dozen or so shirts you shared with us 😀
Almost 300K subs and growing, I would say that retirement account of yours is doing pretty well.
"I love it when a plan comes together."
Wisdom acquired by doing. Can't beat it. Scarcity mindset prevents so many from trying....
Another awesome video!! Thank you!!
Good show Pete and thank you for the story God bless you and Ms Hillary
Thanks for talking about how you started your farm. One question how can I get that shirt that changed colors while you were talking. 👍
You were doing great with the Michigan State shirt and then you brought out that U-M rag......Plezzz....U-M has nothing to do with Ag. they look down on it... trust me
Pete, I’ve been watching your mechanical skills and that and I do love chronic international, especially like the 1086 or any of the 86 models. My question is to you is what is the purpose of the TA lover what is it function? I never did understand that.
How do get all your college and university shirts. Love seeing all the different ones.
Great vid. How many different shirts can you wear in one video?
Pete wears longhorn shirt, wondering anyone goes to UT?
So, you switched from square bales to round bales. Now the cows dont get a square meal.
how many shirts did you go through making your video (Ha Ha Ha)
For all the newies. Pete is a very smart(I say brilliant), meticulous and highly organized motivated man. With a great wife behind him. His content and information is premo. We're lucky we found him. **Still waiting for clock video Pete??
I'd say she isn't behind him, she is at his side.

HI Pete, I've been a subscriber from almost the beginning. I'm always looking forward to the next video. You make working on your equipment look easy. My question is , did it take longer to fix the 756 or to change your T-shirts. Ha Ha . Keep the videos coming. Thank you and good luck.
🤣😂🤣😂
Go green go white.
Outstanding in your field...farmer. Your choice to leave the corporate job for “Just a few acres”, prob extended your life and enhanced your happiness. Blessings Pete 👍🇺🇸🚜...
I'm trying to get into the small farming world in Ontario Canada. Your video's have always given me a lot information on what avenues to go after, and order of operation. Thank you for always making these great video's! I just bought a bush hog 2 week's ago, and a 4 furrow plow, to start working my land. Need to make some pasture. Then id like to start making some hay, sell it locally. Then with the food taken care of, start getting livestock. You and your family have been an inspiration to my family and I. So from the bottom of my heart, Thank you Pete!
You my friend are what I call a true down to earth American. You are the poster boy for what a man can do if he puts in the hard work and uses his brain. May all your dreams come to floriation.
Hmmmm, there's a new word for me: floriation. Gotta look that one up and, maybe, add it to my vocabulary. 🙂
@@klazyy641 I think the intended word was fruition...
FRUITION | definition in the Cambridge English Dictionary

That was great Pete. We who watch you regularly are fortunate to have you share so much of your farm life with us. I think you would have been a great chool or college teacher as your verbal style is so easy to follow and you keep us interested. I thank you always for your time and "lessons" Jim Robinson
So humble, I have fallen asleep twice listening to Pete tell his story. The man definitely has natural talent of story telling.
I Love your videos good job Pete
One of the reasons I really enjoy your channel is the fact you are well spoken. You dont blather on like an undereducated "hick" or try to get more views by doing over the top content. You just talk normally, softly and wisely. Ill keep watching as i enjoy this sort of stuff I hope it keeps coming for many years.
Yes. I'm so glad he doesn't pulling stunts or acting silly just for views. His day to day life is much more entertaining and educational to boot
Hey Pete - absolutely a home run video! Love'd the way you carried on working on the tractor while telling us how you got started. You and I are pretty much the same age (1967) and I worked the majority of my life in the Investment field - currently working in Insolvency but I can tell you that if I could have taken those steps you did - I too would be farming today (and a side kick of carpentry) though I would likely be doing more of a chicken / egg and veggie production. I truly admire your skill sets and the quality of your videos are pretty much professional quality. Your wife is a sweet lady and if I were closer I would purposely drive to the farmers market and tell you what a wonderful contribution you have made to those who are likely considering making a career in the farming sector - I can't think of another UA-camr who just speaks the way life is - the up's and down's - I always smile when I see a new Just A Few Acres Farm being posted. God Bless.
Absolutely in a league of your own. So inspirational to even a South African city dweller like myself. Always enjoy your highly informative content and unique presentation.👏👏👏
Very clever to keep us watching and learning by mixing it at the same time!!! Looove watching you and family and animals. From England x
My grandmother grew up in western PA and said “kerflewy” when things went awry. Thanks for the memory and your story. You are a wise & funny guy. Blessings to the homestead.
Either it took a week to fix the IH or dang you change shirts alot!!
Loved this video, Pete! And the number of different shirts you wore was probably almost as much work as fixing the tractor! I stopped counting-LOL! Having changed jobs/careers myself, I absolutely agree that the experience of the first job really sets the tone for the energy and commitment that's required for the second. A supportive spouse is huge, too! Your channel is one of the brightest spots on UA-cam, Pete! Thank you!

I counted 13 shirts. He is sweating quite a bit, but he is also messing with us.

@@dnorthup65 Great job, I missed a few.
Pete, I loved this video. By the way, I bought your book, "One Year and a Day on Just a Few Acres" over the internet from a thrift store in CA (I live in PA). I loved every minute that I spent reading it at the beach during our summer vacation. Do you and Hilary take your family on vacations? If so, do you get someone to cover your farm duties while you are gone? The farmer I worked for in the '80s and -90s never took his family on vacations, instead he would do fun things on the farm for his family, like providing a bushel of Maryland steamed crabs for a front yard party. And the kids all rode horses that he let them buy at auction. So I'm sure they all had great memories that weren't necessarily spending a week at a beach renting someone else's house...
It’s always nice to reflect Pete. Thank you for being so thoughtful and caring. Farming is hard work and takes someone with the right attitude towards the natural course of life. You are a model farmer!
Congrats Brownie ... they look very healthy
At least 6 jerseys into the video, and you have that tractor on the road! Great job. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing yours and Hillary's trip to the farm. Very interesting h ow you both grew. Thank you so much for sharing. I am so pleased to hear that you both are where you want to be in life....The sacrifices were definitely worth it. Take care, and God Bless. Bev in Maine
Pete! Your experiences are a blessing not only for your family, but for the whole.The uplift-ment alone is worth the watch! Keep on keeping on!! And thank you from Georgia!
Great video Pete I no where your coming from I was self employed contractor for over 40yrs. Started with 1,000. In the bank the rest is history put away for retirement, and paid self employment taxes etc. And now I get a decent s.s . Check each month .
Pete you bring ALOT of wisdom to UA-cam. Your values and beliefs remind me of my Grandfather. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Pete I just wanted to take a moment and tell you how much my wife and I enjoy your channel. We normally watch our favorite UA-cam channels on our smart tv, which means we can not comment directly from our recliners. You provide content that is both philosophical and DIY driven, both entertaining. I was raised on a farm and determined early in life I did not want to be a farmer. Perhaps that was my motivation to go to law school and practice law these past 45 years. In 2001 we bought a farm and though I am still fully engaged in my law practice, I find myself enjoying the different type of work that farming brings each day. I congratulate you on how you built a sustainable and profitable small farm. We have 121 acres, 75 are tillable and the rest in woods, creeks, and infrastructure. We let someone else crop the farm on shares, which allows me the freedom to play "farmer" as my energy and time permit. I also enjoy your wardrobe changes. I didn't count the number of different university t-shirts you wore on this one but it may be a new personal best. I haven't seen a Vanderbilt shirt yet. Let me know if you have one. Have a great day and thanks again for an enjoyable channel.
Hi Pete! Ii'm from Sunny South Africa! I just want to thank you for the very informative tips on farming and especially the series ofvtips on how to make farming sustainable and enjoyable! I am extremely impressed with the way you and Hillary are co-farming as equal partners! That's one of the most beautiful thing to see a husband and wife do together! I know this is very, very, very hard work, and therefore I want to wish you all possible success! George Mc Donald, Stellenbocsh, South Africa
Interesting video, but one question in your previous video did you inherit the farm from your grandfather. If you did that would make it a heck of alot easier and financial to start the farm instead of purchasing land . Looks like you fell into farming at the right time in your life.
Yeah, I get that a lot. My response is that it's an excuse. When you really want something, you are willing to work your butt off to achieve it. I worked my butt off through high school to go to college on scholarship, then worked my butt off for 20 years, saving to have freedom later in life. Making excuses like the cost of land is a cop out. Our land was worth $40,000 in total when we moved back to the farm. If land is too expensive where you live and you really want to farm, then move to somewhere that land is cheaper. Those places still exist; some are right in my backyard.
@@JustaFewAcresFarm 45 acres valued at less than 1K per acre? Wow, farm land around here runs 3-5K per acre depending on if there's a well on the property, precision leveling, etc. Enjoyed the video Pete. One of your more interesting, for me at least.
@@jjohnson2553 3-5k where is those prices, here in Texas are crazy prices, no less than 10-15k per acre, I'm talking cheap, some places are over 20-30k per acre, no way to started a farm
Sure inheriting land is nice but you can say that about any type of beneficial inheritance.
One thing is they didn't squander the land and look at what just 45 acres can do........
It looks to be sensibly managed and cared for.
3 - 5 k is what most long around me is going for but some does spike higher.
10 -15 and 20 - 30 k are either non starters or severely difficult starts on that higher end.
Either way i don't fault Pete for how he got his start. He could have just held on and sold it, he could destroy the land, etc., fill in those blanks.
Every situation is unique.
The lesson Pete has taught me is going forward, Think, Strategize, and Plan to reach those goals.
I also know that some places sadly in the US are now at a point where the only way to start is to move and thats from either insane land prices, lack of water, OR both.
I can see where you're coming from but it's not like the local BTO tossing his kid the keys to the empire. A good man leaves something for his children, and his children's children.
Great history report there Pete. It's good to hear all of the steps and turns that you made and the decisions that you made to grow your farm. Experience is a great teacher, now you have that in your farming life. I like that you could detail your growth as thoroughly as you did, thanks for the chance to fully understand your path and directions that you took. Have a great evening!
Pete, I can't say enough how I enjoy all your videos. Thanks for being out there and doing what you do.
I spent my first 9 years on a farm so now at 77 years old I really enjoy and appreciate your channel . Thank you very much for all your work and sharing life.
Morning friends hope all is well, love the old tractors thanks for what you do blessings and peace love the videos keep them coming!
Pete,
I've been watching you for a little over a year now and for years I have wanted to get into farming. For a little while I was unsure of how I would get there but with videos like these ones that you post you have helped me put the pieces together. Right now I'm a young plumber about to get married. It won't be long now and we will be starting up our farm part time. Alot of that is thanks to you.
From up here in Ontario,
Thanks
would you say the impact of UA-cam was profound - for example does it equal the net income from the rest of the farm? and provide retirement income that you would not otherwise enjoy?
I started my family's own ag business 2 years ago. Since 2020 when we hatched a little bit of stuff (quail and some ducks) my dad did all the advertising and I did all the dirty work since then we expanded from 20 quail,a few layers and 2 ducks to 7 ducks, 12 laying hens, lots of meat birds for our own consumption and lots of quail. We also upgraded from a small styraphom and plastic incubator to our 1056 chicken egg incubator and hatcher. It wasn't too profitable till I took over advertising (took over since february) and currently at $900 profit for a hobby (as a sidenote I'm only 16). I'm now gonna try to make my uncles farm profitable (if he keeps it) and I'm currently waiting for farm prices to crash for my parents to buy a farm. After my week of forced vacation I plan on testing hemp bedding vs shavings bedding vs straw/hay
I grew up on a farm in Kansas in the 50s and my father made a decent living on 180 acres with pigs and chickens on the side and wheat for the main crop. One of my first cousins is still farming and farms 6 to 8 Thousand acres and spent half $1 million on a new combine. This is how much farming has changed and the scale of a farm you need to make a good living
Pete, we stumbled upon your Chanel last week. We love your videos! You speak from the heart and you are so inspiring. I grew up on a 100acre farm here in Aus, now my young family have just bought 25acres ($31k AU an acre) to grow old on.
Is that a McCormick Deering 10-20 in your barn? My father restored one 20 years ago and is still at the family farm.
Thank you for letting us onto your farm and into your lives. Brad & Kate in Australia 🇦🇺
Hey Pete, would you still farm if you didn’t have to make a living out of it?
Yes
Love it!
You're one of the reasons I'm doing farming so enthusiastically now!
I'm one year in and I'm doing about 30 acres of custom small square hay,
Keep up the great videos Pete, youre an inspiration
-Jake
I couldn't stop laughing everytime your shirt changed and you kept a straight face. Lol. Love your humor and positive attitude!!
Yay, Congrats Pete on your new Baby piglets. I know they're going to keep Momma pig quite busy this summer.
You bring back memories of the Home Improvement show with Tim Allen always wearing all the different collage shirts . 😁 Love it .
As far as I am concerned your channel is the best channel on UA-cam so informative so friendly it makes you feel welcome whenever I listen to it keep it up
I can see why you enjoying working on those old tractors, what a delight. I think I'd enjoy it too, I wonder what the old tractor scene is like here in Australia
Great video!! By the way, did anyone count how many times Pete changed his shirt? 🤣🤣🤣
God bless you Pete, and god bless all farmers without you we wouldn’t have a chance!
The piglets are so cute, and Momma is fairly friendly for a Mommy pig. 1968 the year I graduated from high school. This was a very interesting video.
Thanks for the MSU Spartan love, Pete. I subscribed to your channel early on as a reminder of/connection to my roots on my granddad’s dairy farm near Watertown, NY. He had an H and a 560 and worked hard every day like you and Hillary do. He was disciplined, persistent and calculated too - sound familiar? I’m glad you have been able to make a living and thrive. Your story and accomplishments are very understated. I really like the piggers and the variety of topics you share. Great video!
I have to say that I honestly learn something valuable with every video I watch. Thank you Pete and Hilary for sharing your everyday farm life, and giving us an insight into farming.
I'm an old retired guy, Pete, but listening to your business development insight gets me excited. Fortunately, I can discern reality from fantasy. Great video, my friend. Thank you.
Even as a child (who unfortunately grew up in the city) I was fascinated by agriculture. When we went on "farm vacations", I was always in the barn, in the pasture or in the field, helping out wherever I could and was allowed to. However, my increasingly strong desire to become a farmer ultimately failed because of my comparatively high demands on the character of a potential husband. I met my husband, who also did not come from farming, at the age of 19 while I was working as an operating room nurse in Vienna, where he was studying at the time. After the birth of our first child, I stayed at home out of conviction. Due to my husband's work, we were forced to be apart for a long time and have a "weekend relationship." At some point, we were finally reunited as a family, albeit in a different state. As much as my husband liked his new job there, I became increasingly unhappy, the proverbial ceiling fell on my head. Not because I was a mom, a threesome, kids and a housewife at the time, but much more because I couldn't connect for an entire decade. At some point my husband also became seriously ill, which took a lot out of all of us, but luckily turned out well. After about seven years, together with my first born daughter, I created a poster with the pros and cons of changing residence to "convince" my husband. I felt that he would at least resist and rather refuse, since he really liked his job, to which he could walk, and he wanted to buy the apartment he had at the time after ten years. Since I met my husband, we actually both wanted to return to his home (state). But unfortunately, he couldn't find a job there after graduation, and so began our years-long and rocky journey across the states. Throughout the years, I never gave up on the dream of owning a small farm. In the end, our search took four years, and with a lot of luck, we finally found our little paradise! Today we live on our farm with our four children, two cats and a dog. In the beginning, we found fields full of knee-high weeds. Neighbors helped us clear the whole area with a tractor and level the fields. The whole family then sowed pasture grass by hand, and we first mowed it with a brush cutter. We are gradually acquiring the machines and everything else that is needed, as soon as the money is there. No one could have foreseen that we would find ourselves in an economic crisis now, of all times.
As time went on, I noticed more and more parallels with your life. In our case, however, the driving force was me, who desperately wanted a farm and didn't think my husband would ever find so much joy in one. Thanks to the platform MyHeritage, to my complete surprise, I "got" a large family in Sweden, did not know that my uncle's first child lived there. I was born on February 6 and was 37 years old the day you hung up your job. We bought our farm almost three years ago when we were both also in our mid-forties. By local standards we own a small farm and in the future we want cows (original Braunvieh), pigs (Berkshire and/or Mangalica), chickens (a native old breed, not hybrids), a pair of geese, a pair of ducks and maybe sheep, but only on a small scale and for self-sufficiency, because in our country the conditions for commercial farming are anything but "attractive." The big agricultural economists of Europe are promoted and the small farmers are driven to the wall with sometimes completely nonsensical regulations. A farmer friend of mine, also an academic career changer, sells beef from her farm and could produce much more of it (high demand), but it wouldn't be worth it because of taxes and requirements and she would have less on her bottom line despite the extra effort. Many farmers prefer to lease land rather than buy it because it is cheaper. In my childhood, farmers with 25 cattle, 20 pigs and a few chickens could still live off their farm alone, but those days are unfortunately long gone.
Congratulations on all your hard work and success!
It took me a minute before I started noticing the shirt changes. I'm not bright :)
Great video thanks for sharing.
I think you have had a good start Pete. I think one key factor has been dealing with laws and not having way too many overcomplicated regulations to deal with. Number two is you had savings and did not mess with any banks. At least your a example that if you want to you can have a self sufficient farm. The IH 756 has the same temperature setup as the Belarus 500 not that different at all. Only on the belarus it attaches to the radiator, newer model has a electric sender instead of a capillary tube. That connects to the thermostat housing. It has been a hot summer where I am and instead of complaining about it I love it. Soon it's gonna be autumn and temperatures are gonna trop so enjoy it until you can.
I look forward to all your videos, Thanks for your hard work.
Your past shows in your videos. Well spoken,organized and educational. Thanks so much for showing us.
I have watched several of your videos over the past few years but this one far and away was so informative for where we are in our life and farm. Thank you for sharing and for the encouragement! God bless y'all! -James from Texas-
Jamaica 🇯🇲 here your family beginning is very inspiring to me I am a grandmother and I have a small business for my home and I started very small and now it’s growing with God’s grace I always watch you at home and at the market and I love your jokes I wish you every success in all you and your family do
Pete, I've been with this channel for a while because of your logic, calm, and ability to teach. Without going into the "none of anyone's business" earnings zone...can you please share with us the same process of going UA-cam? Just like this video went into sequential building up of your business.....how did you learn, what equipment, what was your experience of audience feedback, hiccups with monetization, etc etc. Yes there are other channels that teach this, but they have a scattered thought process, no attention to business concepts, etc. Mine would not be farming by a long shot, but I don't even know what I don't know....and that can break a bank and a spirit diving in. Fingers crossed and thanks!!!!
Allison from Pittsburgh.
Pete's untold secret passion is collecting university shirts.
You're a smart man. I put my nose to the grindstone, raised a family, and became successful.... but hated every minute of my career, although it was in the manufacture of steel components for farm equipment. It is great to see someone earn a living from what they were truly meant to do, and thank you for sharing your experience with us in youtubeland.
Loved the video Pete! Can you do another equipment tour?
Thank God for an understanding wife. I enjoy your video. Take care and God bless.
Pete I love this! So many people will get in the debt trap if they don't know what they're doing. Have a bad year? Boom, lost it all. Great story, great advice!
I like how Pete talks to the tractor parts when he's working on them! It makes sense to me!
Pete always appreciate your perspective. I agree that cash for growth is the way to go. It can be done in any case of a business plan it just may take longer than people's patience tolerance can stand. You are better off with a gradual build as you are working within the scale of your capability to grow.
I agree with others, your simple honest explanation and well rounded knowledge is what keeps me connected. I’ve tried to follow other farmers, I’ve listened and within the first five min I’m off and return even if to repeat your content. Also, your respect for animals is one of the top reasons I can watch everything without turning away. Thank you for sharing.
Hello Pete and Hillary! I feel like I know you guys I watch you every day and enjoy your show you are both inspiring to us since we started our own farm just 7 months ago here in the Ozark mountains. we have cows ,goats , Chickens and ducks . we tried planting Our property with grass seed and alfalfa but the drought has killed everything unfortunately. Nothing we can do about the drought though so we have to keep pushing on and we're thankful for the little tiny bit of rain that we got yesterday.Watching your show has really inspired us and biodus and it feels good to know that we are not alone with all of these challenges! Thank you so much for your awesome attitude and insight and keep making videos you are helping so many people!

Great video! I lost count on the shirts, maybe you can show us your laundry pile! 😜
Hi Pete, I enjoyed the video very much, I went through a similar process of change as you did. When we left the family farm when i was younger, my Grandfather asked me what I wanted to do if I did not take over the farm. I told him that I wanted to farm and as we went through the years, I decided to become a Funeral Director instead. I have been in Funeral Service for more than 40yrs to the day, but I still Farm as well. Like my Grandfather told me on that cold rainy day in 1972, Farmer or Funeral Director I will always be planting some thing. Keep up the good work, and the videos.
Pete, I love your channel - as always another enjoyable episode. I love the t-shirt changes! Thank you for all you do - take care.
I love your story about how you started your farm! I want to be a farmer but I'm afraid of such a big change, however this video was very inspiring and made me think I could probably do it too.😀
Just found your channel and watched how you rebuilt your home …what a great story…nice to see someone who valued the family history and saw it worth investing in instead of plowing it down and building a more modern home …it’s beautiful. Now i’m going to start watching more on your channel as i have time. Looking forward to it…you are quite the story teller.
I think your videos turned out to be way more of a thing than you intended. Some of the best content on YT. And this comes from a boomer that doesn't like anything.
