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.

good seeing your dad's knee healed and walking normal
He would probably say no way, but a biography of Jim would make a cool video. He seems like such a good dude.
Working title - Stuck In The Mud.
Still waiting an that podcast
Yeah I agree
Good thing you have Jim. He just has to straighten you out occasionally.
Yes. The world needs to hear his story.
Nothing more precious than having your little girl hang out and help.
"Priceless" 😎👍👌
It's certainly good for the soul
One thing that always stands out in your videos, is you take time to spend with your children. I think you have a future farmer in Ila, but there is no doubt she is daddy's little girl. Farm on!
Also he always talked with Ila before moving any equipment to be sure that she would not get run over. Good daddy. P.S. Seed corn is not "candy". Good discussion with Ila.
I second the motion to highlight Jim. Also, kudos on demonstrating (without being preachy) your consistent focus on farm safety, including the need to teach children the host of unseen dangers as well as the big ones. I love that Miss Isla chooses to spend time with you and that you reward her with actual (versus feigned) loving attention. You do good work, Dad.
Although pretty much all youtube family video's will tend to highlight the best out of the day, you can often tell when the kids are not behaving naturally or are putting on a show. Or the parents are pretending for the camera here. However with zach, I get really no hint of that whatsoever. And after watching them for quite a while it seems like the family would seem very familiar to any one to see in real life verses how they portray on the videos.
This is so much better than anything that Hollywood produces.
Are you talking about welkers
Because Hollywod wants to make it real (real nonsense)
Preach😂
@@Definitelynotyou90 hahaha lol!!!
*Pedowood
He makes the joke about tire pressure every time... but it’s still funny😂
YESSS!! Getting the four wheeler stuck in the mud is WAY better than video games!! Hopefully they are also learning car and maintenance of said vehicles! And that young lady's smile would melt the snow for three counties around.
Never had farm interest until I came across this jewel of a channel
Yes Zach is a great reminder that not everyone that lives in Minnesota is a communist that burns down wall greens.
Me neither. Now I follow three farm channels. I'd watch more, but I don't have the time.
Zach Johnson does a great job acting and pretending to be a farmer
@@UnknownUnknown-ev1yi And loot Little Caesars?
Welcome to the club
Your little helper is sure growing up, helping out dad when she can. Love it.
I think jim took the utv for a stroll and the kids covered for him, they didnt want to see him get fired....again.🙂
Ha ha, nice
I think dad got it stuck and blamed the kid
Cbnm
I do allot of repair work on Bobcat equipment at local farms. I greatly appreciate the generosity of farmers. It’s very nice to have a warm dry place to work on equipment.
Hi how to stop kids
Those farmers depend on that equipment and the investment they have in them. Having a happy mechanic to rely on is even more important to protect that investment. I do IT work and computer repairs in the home and i get some of that same treatment by business owners who rely on their computer equipment for a livelihood way more than just home users.
That crawling around under the digger checking tire pressures looks like a good job for Onyx.. right after he goes and digs that quad out of the mud 😏
Dad will dig it out for him......NOT ?
The end...OMG...the cute level is off the charts 😊
Zach you sure know how to farm one handed really well
Nice to see the "blue bolt rack" -- before my retirement I worked next door to that company in Winona
Glad to see ur dad doing well was a busy video thanks for taking the time to bring us along ur busy journey
I like the dial air gauges with the stubby flexible hose which holds the reading until the button is pushed. $10 - $20 usually.
i prefer the cheap digital ones. accurate as hell
Love the dogs fighting at the beginning of most videos
How long before some gets mad and say it’s animal cruelty😂
@@calebhunter6207 exactly
Same here
Your doggos are as crazy as mine. Love how they stop, "buffer" and then go again.
She let the spider be. She's a conservationist. Too adorable!
can you do a farm tour in the future? because i saw you got a lot of new machinery
Yesss i agree
There’s a huge difference between farm kids and kids that don’t live on a farm. Most farm kids are outside doing things and entertaining themselves. Most kids that don’t live on a farm rely on technology to entertain them. Farm kids usually have great common sense and can figure things out better as they get older because of everything they learn on the farm. When I was a kid my siblings and I would walk the creek that ran through our farm when we weren’t working looking for sand stones, snakes, and other interesting things. Or we would walk across the fields to visit our friends and do things around their farms. We were seldom inside until late in the afternoon.
That bean salad looked healthy for you, whats wrong, are you ok, are you alright
Allways love to watch your Videos, greets from nothern Germany!
nice to see dad moving around well
Thank you for sharing your sweet little daughter. She brought a big smile to my face.
I like the way you and Jim measure where the bolt should go to take the guess work out of it😂
You and Jim had a moment holding that spring together
She loves to hang out with Dad. Regardless of the weather
She knows she’s safe with Dad, and if there’s a problem, Dad will take care of her.
Great video, Dad.
Big Jim is old school just like your dad. He doesn’t run in 1st gear or 5th gear. He is a steady 3rd gear all day long. Hard working honest man that you can set your watch by, runs equipment and CDL license. You better start looking now for his replacement because it’s gonna take a long time to find a man that could even come close to replacing Jim.
Awesome. Beautiful Daughter. Oh how fast they grow up. Glad to see you with her. One day you will blink and she will be graduating. Treasure these years!
You got a cutie little helper.
You have the cutest helper. No not Jim!!!
Of course you meen Jim. He's cute too 😘
u mean Anna, right? of course you do.
looks like your dad is really doing great, good to see us more mature duffers doing so well
Isla is the sweetest, cutest, best helper. She's a true farm gal! ❤️️😍👍
The tire pressure on the tracks joke never gets old.
True
You have the best helper!!! Way to go, Isla!!!!
Plumb up an air regulator and a hose with an air chuck on the end. Plug your regulator into the air supply and just regulate the air going into the secondary line and stick the air chuck on all the tires. That way, if you hear no air go through, tire full. If you hear air going through, tire low and getting filled up. Saves extra steps too so you don't check, then get the air stuff ready, them go back to all the tires that need it, fill them and then recheck them. Just have a secondary regulator on your air chuck on the wall and regulate a secondary line just for tires. Set your pressure right at the regulator.
I really appreciate your comment about the stuck ATV , I grew up on a farm , became an engineer ... 30 years later a CEO but still maintain a complete working shop both wood and metal and a large vegetable garden an orchard and vineyard . My grandchildren play video games the only thing that they really enjoy outside is Granny’s pool?
have always found that good engineers mostly (not all) started out as farm kids, combination of professional and practical training.
Nice to see your dad out walking around again
The weather is just like here in Sweden! - Bring in some more firewood and feed the fire, it’s cold like an Eskimos hut!
Thanks again, Zach & Becky for another informative video. I'm so happy it's time for y'all to start turning some dirt!
You should put in some skylights so your receivers can see the satellites while in the shop. Plus it'll give you more light during the day.
Glad to see you using the Fastenal bolt bins.
Nice lesson on the color coating.. Let me know if you ever want to go Hoof Trimming some cows for a day!
Love watching your dogs play. Lol
You guys are almost ready to roll for this year. Here in Middle Georgia, I saw some corn almost 6 inches tall this past week. Farmers are going full tilt planting now.
just too damn cute. I miss my kids when they were little. Grandkids are fun also. family is just great;)
I haven't heard an update for a long time: how's your dad's knees doing? He seems to be moving pretty good...
I'm glad to see you worry about your kids when you are moving machinery around. I'm sure you've always done that, but I haven't seen it in a video before.
It would scare me to death to have all the little ones running around in the same area as the tractors. Not to mention the dogs. Heck, it scares me to back up my Subaru from my parking spot.
Great video. Only you can make selecting the right size bolt entertaining. :)
And the Oscar for best actor goes to Zach Johnson for his portrayal of a young millennial farmer. I honestly haven't seen anything produced by Hollywood in over 5 yrs.
Chet ,
Im so sorry for your loss and believe me I know the pain your going through and I'l continue to pray for you and everyone that Loved her.
God Bless !
Kyle
Who is Chet?
Great to see your Dad.
SO TRUE about tire air gages! Hahaha. Hard to find a good one.
Farm Parents Raise Good Crops and Great Children. Congrats Dad you done good!!
Tire gauges are as good as the focus on your cameras! :)
Zack inspired me today as well; to drink beer and watch UA-cam... thank you sir!👍
Love the pool noodle noggin savers over at the grain leg
You have a great family. Very blessed.
Best tire pressure gauge is the $6 Home Depot Husky digital gauge. Works great, in line with all my other gauges and if you lose it, just $6.
Zach it was nice of you to explain to your daughter about the treated corn seed, but did you tell her not to touch them because of the poison they are treated with and did you wash her hands. Great videos keep it up and great job Becky for making Zach look so good.
You make my day zach and you inspire me to be a farmer when I get older
You won't regret becoming a farmer it's the good life
If you can, get a job as a Farm Hand.
As long has I get to farm with crops I don’t care what it is I want to be a farmer
Old, like Zach!
I think you under estimate the work that goes into farming it’s not just something you choose to do like a normal career is. It’s more of just in your blood type of job for all us farmers we do it because we don’t know any different. That is how the countless generations before us did it and so that is how we do it and how our kids and their kids will do it. You will never become rich being a farm hand you will get paid a decent livable wage but that’s it no overtime no benefits no retirement except for those rich corn farmers in the mid west but most can’t afford to pay you very well for the work you do I believe the average across the country for a farm hand is about $15-$20 an hour. Unless you work for a corporate outfit that pays a little more but then your working for a soulless corporation not a family farm. Wish you the best of luck but it’s not a career like some other jobs are it’s a way of life!
I will take a picture of the one I have used at work for past 20 years. It was a gift. I don’t know the brand or where it came from but pictures help.
Yeah nice seeing dad back
I watch you and the Walkers and am encouraged about our country’s future
Hey Zach you need a Cornwell air pressure gauge and we’ve-had one for about 4 years and all we have had to do is change the battery’s very impressed on how well it works.
Grew up on a farm in west central Minnesota about 80 miles south of you.
Always wanted to farm but some how it didn't work out. Love your channel. Get to live vicariously through you.
Always so much to comment on in your videos ha ha. Poor Jim.....never can tell if he's oblivious when you poke fun at him, or if he's poking fun at you by acting oblivious 😆
We have and use completely different ones in Europe that can be attached straight to the compressor. So when you fill up you can see how much you got in there.
We have those too, but many aren't accurate for long. To just crawl around and check pressure, it's better not to be dragging the hose all over the everywhere.
Hey look it’s the actor the plays The Millennial Farmer on UA-cam!
Thanks for taking me along, as you are getting ready for spring planting season.
Isla is most definitely a daddy's girl! I was too growing up. I'm 65 now, that was a long time ago. The two of you are precious!
It is warmer in south central Alaska than it is in Minnesota.
Same here in Northern nv. Snowing again at tahoe
Zack you should do an interview video staring Jim, just to let us know a little bit more about him, he seems like a good guy, just a thought!!! Thanks for the video
Snowed here this morning now all the snow is gone
What a nice sweet send off. You have some nice kids. Thank you for showing us some of your life around the farm. Take care - be safe - hope the family and you are doing well. Tom (Spin)
In the beginning of your video when you crawled under the digger, and you popped your head up for a second, the first thing I thought of was, "WHACK A MOLE" LOL
Your dad is moving much better!
19:12 lol Dad doesn't know it yet but the shop thermostat was mysteriously bumped up to 80 degrees to allow for shorts and t-shirt.
Great seeing that you have the Xtra help sweeping floors and opening and closing those shop doors.
I saw your story post, can't wait for the videos with the planters and field work
I wish we had a shop big enough to bring our cultivator in haha gotta change sweeps soon 🙄
You definitely got that right about the kids playing outside verse video games. I'm an 80s baby and I don't think I was ever inside the house unless it was to eat sleep and sometimes take a bath LOL. Those were the days though if the street lights came on you better hightail it home or get a whooping when you get there. Nowadays everyone is caught up in their feelings LOL
That ending was awesome!
We really like using MasterCraft air gauges that hook rights up to the air hose then you can see the pressure as you fill the tire. And also we really like Milwaukee grease guns like it way better than our old johndeere one.
Great videos keep up the good work
Great always testing Vlog, thanks a lot for sharing, have a wonderful week
Snow.is the word of the year in the north . We are on winter 6 in Northern Canada !
Hope it goes smoother with grain leg in the future
That little un makes me smile every time, bless her.
I just purchased a rapid air K3015 automatic tire gauge. It’s pretty awesome. You set the pressure you want and it automatically inflates or deflates the tire until its right. My son loves it! It’s pretty pricey but so is everything these days. If it will just hold up it will definitely be worth it.
you are all most ready now you wait for the weather great video all ways thanks.
Your daughter is wonderful!
Zach says the kids getting the atv stuck is better than sitting around playing video games. As soon as the words come out of his mouth UA-cam shows a video game commercial.
glad I get to watch these videos without commercials. How do I get to do that?? Dunno. must be the millions I pay to my internet provider. Worth it? Yup.
@@larryfreeman7979 I never seen it either but then I use more Add Blockers than you can poke a stick at...lol.
The "Joe's Racing" pressure gauges are awesome! I've been using them for 3 years of autocross and rallycross, and I've never had a failure despite the rough treatment.
You have really done good with your channel! Keep up the good work!
Millennial farmer you’ve inspired me to build a model farm
Finished planting beans yesterday, my dad came and ripped up the field for corn so I guess I’ll be out there in a few days.
Blue point digital air gauge. I’ve had one for almost 2 years and it’s still spot on!
Nothing better than having kids that would rather spend time with you, doing even the boring chores, just to be with you. Your kids give me the giggles when they say things like "That tiny thing?" when it comes to big equipment. She's going to be a farmer like you. Yes, I know they aren't perfect, as we don't see the fights with the siblings and the sass from time to time with the parents. It happens. Keep up the fantastic work with your munchkins, and hoping to see more.
