    I grew up in that area on dairy. I remember going In your barn when the mats were going down. Was there in 1983. When farmers would help one another. I’m glad to see your fathers legacy going on

    Going through a rough moment in my day and watching this video has completely changed it for the better. My family has a dairy in Dimock, PA about 20 miles south of Binghamton. Still working the land and milking the cows well over 100 years later. I'm 45 and live in the "city" now. You gave me a gift. A gift of remembering my lost family members, my special cow goobie, and days of past that resonate. The hard work. The summers that lasted forever. The love I felt and the love I gave. When your father said how Binghamton was local it made me think of all the trips to central tractor with my grandma. I noticed how sweet you are with your girls. You are a good guy. Thank you for making the world a better place.

    The video brings back memories of our farm in Antwerp NY which I still have but is not operating. Trying to restore it back to what it was or as close as I can financially. We had Lamco wagons and a 93 combine which I still have. Farming is a lot of work and many farms fail because the work is so demanding and it is a stain on the family in regards to time management. I travel 81 over an over to northern NY from Virginia so I probably pass your farm. Thanks for the videos.

    Excellent video. Grew up on a 240 acre dairy farm in the 1950's and 1960's. Can remember breaking concrete to install barn cleaner and putting in more stalls. Mixed all the concrete with a small cement mixer and wheeled it in with a wheelbarrow. We worked hard but it was a good time to be a farmer. I think things weren't as complicated those days.

    Excellant video! We moved off the farm when I was seven. A neighbor bought it and did a lot of major improvements by tiling and cleaning up wet holes and clearing fence rows during the mid seventies when I worked for him during high school,loved every minute of it! We had the privilege of working it for a while after he sold the cows and retired until the decision was made to place it into CRP. A lot of good memories and a terrific friendship came from those years, still smile every time I drive by. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.

    I looked up the old ford tractor 7600 (1978), they are still priced from $8,000 to $15,700 with front end loader.
    I really enjoyed your farm history as well as your family history on the farm. I also grew up on a farm in central Mississippi.👍

    It's nice to see how far your families farm has come, all I can due is think back to what our family farm was and we're it was going, but the late 90s took its toll. Cows and equipment went in 96, and the land shortly After. Thank you for the great videos, and the work your family does everyday.

    Mike this was amazing! I'm sure it was nice for your mom and dad to get to reminisce on all the hard work they have put in. I'm amazed at all of the growth they had in the 80s and 90s because at that time all the dairies in my area were closing down.
