  • Spencer bought his first farm! This one is pretty close to where we grew up. This is gonna be a interesting Spring!
    Overtime I'll be trading some of my farmland for farmland near Spencer's farm also. This will be kind of a slow transition, but will allow us to focus more on the long-term of farm operation!
    Plan is for Spencer and Buch to get it all cleared & disked while I plant my ground, and then after I'm all done we'll drive the tractor over to Spencer's farm and get his planted.
    Thanks for watching!!

    I recommend investing in a semi. You could buy a cabover for cheaper, and then buy a cheap lowboy. I think it would be a good investment for traveling back and forth and hauling the excavator. Also later on hauling grain

    On Spencer’s 4020 it will start easier if you turn the steering wheel back and forth and if u take the 6 volt batteries out and put to 12 volt batteries in

    Wear some good hearing protection driving the 4020 or your ears will be ringing later in life...Years of driving open station tractors in the 70's and 80's with no hearing protection have left me "ringing" my self to sleep at night.

    Congratulations, Spence. You guys work hard you deserve it. I’m very jealous. I grew up in the farm in business, and then we move down south and hadn’t been able to farm in my adult life, but I always wanted to go back to it. So good luck my friend.

    First year on the farm just buy a good 6 row planter and keep the wear and tear off your newer tractor. Plus it’s kind of fun to start that way before all the newer good stuff comes up to you.

    My dad and I are on a similar journey. My dad did the 1031 exchange with 400 acres in central Kansas (were we have been for last 25 years) for 640 in ND. We’ve already got 480 in ND. But the house is my grandpas old house 110 miles south in MN were we got 200 acres and my uncle farms a respectable amount there as well. Still figuring out where to build a shed and where I should buy my first ground. It’s a lot cheaper and easier for equal quality ground at our ND farm area.

    Very happy to see another video from the Hilbert Bros. This channel is very interesting in the sense of starting out from scratch farming and actually showing the progress. Airal views of the new farm ground look good with plenty of potential after doing some ground maintenance, only draw back is being 80 miles away from the home ground. May want to look into purchasing a decent semi and a lowboy so you can truck your tractors and combine, the rest of your equipment is pullable by pickups. Great channel guys keep em coming.

    You figure out what you want out of life and do it immediately instead of waiting for whenever the "right" time is (a time that often never times). You are learning through doing, which ultimately can provide some tough lessons in retrospect, but that's the only way they can be learned. Super inspiring for me, and I just want to encourage you to keep pushing forward to success!
