- Filmed on July 25, 2024. Today was our first of three WIC (woman, infant, children) farmers' markets in Columbus Ohio. Low income mothers who qualify for this state funded program are given vouchers for purchasing fresh fruits and veggies at farmers' markets. Out in the fields while picking sweet corn I make a recommendation on what corn variety not to plant and at the end of the video I plant our second to last green bean planting for 2024.

Thank you, thank you for participating in the WIC program. You’re making a direct impact on our next generation.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for participating in the WIC program. When my kids were young , I received assistance from WIC. We didn't get vouchers for farmers' markets back then, but what you're doing for these families means a lot. Because otherwise they wouldn't be able to get the great produce.
Thank you!
This is a program I can get behind. It is a direct and immediate impact to the recipients.
Indeed
This is so heart warming and cool 😎 i just found this channel and became a fan a few days ago and this just made me a super fan, im die hard for wishwell farms now lol 💙
Thanks so much!
I’m happy to see u so busy 🇳🇿🌱
Great footage watching from the uk 🇬🇧
Thank you!
I hope God blessed you and your family for what you're doing
Thank you, He is!
@@wishwellfarms my mom used to run the food bank where I used to live. She did that for years. Whenever someone needed food they would call her. My mom would go to get food for them. It was all stored up the road from our old house. She did so much for others
Got that right it's a long winter
I see that guy flying over 33 all the time, he is a terrific but crazy pilot
You must live close by? This week we had the drone guy spraying fungicides instead he’s a little slower and safer ha ha
Over in Raymond, so not too far. Love your content!
My mother managed and help run a WIC program and clinics at a County Health Dept in Illinois. Don't recall when she did it mentioning farmer market food. Glad to see you are involved helping with this program to provide your wonderful produce to program participants.
Nice video Jason , sorry i have not got back onthe comments the old ticker giving trouble ,the wic was a big then also, glad all is going good for you , thanks for sharing
Thanks Bill, hope your doing ok.
I would love to taste that corn you talked about with the small ears. That wouldn't deter me from buying it if you say it's great tasting. Besides, I'd just eat 4 or 5 instead of 2. I'm a corn freak!
Appling fungicide via air plane and we all wonder why people are sick! It's in the air it's in the water ways it covers the land and we can't seem to understand why everything is sick and dying. It doesn't go away it has to go somewhere down the ditches, so please tell me how you feel about it.
I don’t like it at all. I feel pretty much the same as you, but that was my dad‘s decision on his row crops. Now, if there’s a chance of taking a huge loss because of heavy disease pressure and that’s the only way to salvage the Crop I can understand it, but I don’t like it
❤
We are selling tons of sweet corn & melons right now . Just finished our 53 ft refer trailer , we added doors on the where the cooler unit was , so we can put corn in one end and out the other
That's awesome Mark! Hope it serves you well!
Thank you for sharing yout farm operation with us. Its important to show where our food comes from and the work involved. Oxbo makes a great one row sweetcorn picker also.
Yes, and they are very, very expensive and you have to have an entire sorting and packing line set up in the barn since they pick every ear. I have friends in Southern Ohio that Hand picked 250 acres and sold their mechanical picker.
I really like the looks of the green beans you plant. I plant Contender beans but curious of what variety of beans you plant. Thanks I really like your channel good luck👍
Valentino has been my favorite bean for over a decade, but I always try new ones every year this year and this year I found another one I really like called dark horse.
I give you a like as soon as I see your content. Because of the work I do on the farm, I cannot always be first tho. We have a coupon program that renews every year and is a large part of our income from the markets. We hand them in and in a few days get an etransfer for the amount. Its a great system. A good market can clean out a truck and trailer for us in a matter of hours.
Our senior program went all digital this year on an app and you scan the QR code on the seniors phone or card and its transfered the next day. Wic will be changing to this in a few years as well, but still paper vouchers for now.
I know how you feel about double takes. My employees are all girls but they like to photo bomb my videos (as few as those videos are these days) with silly stuff.
Boys are just a little louder.
Great content. I'm glad that you didn't cut that. Makes everything feel more transparent my friend.
Chuck
Thanks Chuck, it’s funny how some days I get everything in the first take and other days I might do an intro or outro six times before I’m happy lol. None of my workers really want to talk on camera this year it’s very strange, in the past I definitely had some goofballs that would’ve photo bombed everything if I would’ve been filming then haha
That's awesome how wic is helping low income mothers with fresh fruits and vegetables 😀 Hope this wic program helps your farm out a lot at the end of your season 🙏 cool crop duster plane footage 😳 i was wondering - is Wishwell your last name? 🤔 Excellent video 👍📸
Thanks. in the next video you will here about my name and our farm name and how it came to be...I'll let you stay in suspense for one more day lol
Thank you for giving back. I basically gave about 100 pounds of asparagus this year. Donation only.
It’s just like Tithing.
Doesn’t make sense financially but when you put God first everything falls into place.
Awesome! Yes, God first in everything. With the risk and uncertainty of farming you definitely need to have faith and trust in Him.
Great video Jason. The kayak trip sounds like it will be awesome. Well deserved.
Thanks Becky, I can't wait! I also can't wait to hit some long distance trails later this fall!
The old Pawnee or what we use to call the Soreknee cropduster although I used to fly it for launching gliders.
We dont have anything like a coupon sale for fruit and veges here in Australia. What we do have is foodbanks and people like the Salvo's, also hot meal ktichens. Food banks I believe you can get so much food and it includes things like bread and grocery items for a small amount. With the charities people go in and say they have no money for food and they might get a voucher for a relatively small amount to spend at a specific supermarket. These vouchers do not let people buy alcohol or tabacco and I believe also items such as lollies, chips etc.
yeah the foodbacks sound very similar to ours.
You are a fascinating person!
Thanks!
He's a worka
Is that the Red Baron barnstorming your farm?
Must be 🤣
I grew Nirvana for the first time this year and had the same results as you. Short stalks and low, short ears. They had plenty of nutrients and were side dressed with 32%. My other varieties all had long full ears and I’m betting the Anthem I planted on July 4th will as well. It’s a shame the ears are small. Nirvana has great eating qualities. Hope all is well. It’s definitely a busy time now.
Yeah, I'm so done with Nirvana...I gave it two extra years of trialing hoping that extra space and N would help but it didn't. My Anthem, Caliber, Troubadour look great and so does a few new ones, epiphany and stamina
Come to Utah & I’ll give you a map for your hike! Look up the Mount Naomi Wilderness, that’s our blessed backyard! I’ve bummed some gardening knowledge off you, take a fall trip out here & I’ll show you the spots! There are some sweet primitive cabins & huts & lakes and endless quiet canyons
I will make it out to Utah eventually but I have my next few years already planned with North East and Mid South and UP Michigan trips.
Sugar buns is a good sweet corn to grown..
I was about to say are they super happy with the height seems like a back breaking height! I bet you CAN NOT wait for that Yak trip! Been watching through hikers for the amazing views they get on here. I know it would kill a whole season for you but you ever thought about the AT or PCT?
Absolutely, I will do the AT eventually but I'm in the middle of finishing the 500 mile Palmetto Trail in SC this Nov and I have numerous other 300-1000 mile trips planned that will take me several years to finish first. I can't do the AT until someone fills my shoes on the farm for August and Sept since that's when I would start in the North...Aug-Dec.
@@wishwellfarms ahh you would do a late year and start and north and go south! Much cooler weather!
They should help the elderly with those coupons too..
They do, there is a senior program and they get $50 per person to use on fresh fruits and vegetables, until this year it was a paper coupon system but now it’s all digital.
It’s the SFMNP, senior farmers market nutritional program, it’s a federally funded program
What do you spray green beans with to get them that clean?
Nothing, just a pre emergent herbicide before we plant. That's what they look like after being sorted and washed...here is the video showing that: ua-cam.com/video/5K1PV6LycM4/v-deo.htmlsi=OTJ1YNu1KXjv5LR3
What kind of herbicides do you use on your beans? Those look great
metalachlor and clomazone pre, and if a follow up post is needed we use raptor and basagran
❤hi sir can you reply me as soon as posible
I gotta feeling that pilot would someday finish hitting power line. That rakish behaviour is very often penalized .
I heard that one did hit the wires near us a few years back
Would you lower the price on corn if the competition is large?
absolutely, we all try to stay relatively the same...today we sold it for $5 for 7 ears but during the final hour we did one dozen for $5, a thow back to pricing about 10 years ago.
