    Zach Johnson, the “Millennial Farmer” is a 5th-generation farmer who’s spent his life growing, working, and learning on his family’s farm. His wit and dry sense of humor appeal to children and adults alike. A product of the millennial generation, his appreciation of new technology blends with his old-fashioned work ethic, and he offers a unique ability to deliver his message in a way that resonates with lifelong farmers as well as those with no knowledge of agriculture.
    With growing consumer awareness about where their food comes from, Zach has identified the need for an independent voice from the front lines of agriculture. Zach actively promotes agriculture by sharing his day-to-day experiences in the agriculture world while providing farmer-to-farmer education to help facilitate a collaborative conversation between farmers and the public.

    Hey brother man, you definitely got the opertunity to highlight the value of insuring property.
    Still my heart goes out to you and all those in that immediate area. Haven't been a Minnesota farmer since 1981 myself. Around the maple lake,Annandale area.
    Had a bad accident on the farm when I was 9y old got burned 50% of my upper body..
    Accidents happen, but knowledge, safety, assigning tasks according to age. These things will help. And parents really have to train and instruct children b4 allowing them to do things. Sadly my parents were not typical teachers, so please love your Children, train,traen,, instruct, then demonstrate. Love you videos. They really make me miss farming

      Sorry to hear what happened to you as a kid. I have heard that farming is the MOST dangerous profession. Worse than being a cop or a firefighter.

    One of the Welker's videos about erecting new grain bins showed how they ordered extra support (verticle & wrap-around) to better resist wind damage. Would that work for your farm?

    I'm prefacing this with "I have no idea"... Were the cold shed doors open during the storm? If open, I can see the open ended shed acting like a big parachute, catching all the wind's force, and blowing itself apart. I freely admit I have no idea if having the doors closed would have saved the shed.

      The tractor that had the planter attached was standing outside the shed, didn't fit fully in. But I think too it wouldn't have made much difference as it looks like it just collapsed and got pushed over from the side.
      When the wind would have lifted it up it would have looked different.
      In a tornado you actually should open you windows to get equal air pressure to prevent you roof popping up.
      In a storm we had all of our wire reinforced windows cracked on the shop

    Very impressed with your demeanour and sense of humour in the midst of a crisis. Sorry to hear about your troubles but at least you guys are successful enough to have the resources to get back to near normal so quickly. I remember a tornado on our farm in Manitoba just North of the US border and it wrecked our machine shed back in the 50’s . We found pieces of the sliding door a half mile away.
