I must say that Hilarie has the prettiest smile. I hope we see it more often.
You saw their wedding photo! Hill is a bombshell still is :-).... really enjoy you guys! Good ppl ...
Beautiful wife, Pete
Yes, she does a great job behind the camera!
Hilary
I am constantly amazed by this. The instant you view a clip and form an opinion it is really satisfying when you see on the comments an identical opinion.
Really need to see a "hilary" lone video??
I believe the contribution you make, to this platform specifically, is fundamentally beneficial. This isn't about personal gain, from what I observe. You have made significant efforts to benefit those watching. This is rare Pete. You're probably the most principled people I've seen here. If you knew me, you'd know I don't say that lightly. Kudos to you and your family. I have a high degree of respect for what you're doing.
Could not agree more. It has change my perspective on a lot.
@@jesusfelix2605 Mr. Pete is a great guy. Great family. People have the opportunity to learn a happy way to be, just by observing him doing what he does. I hope they observe with their minds and hearts open to what he's trying to convey. Be well.

I would like to say the same I love watching Pete he is so refreshing he calms me down I have real bad anxiety and he does it for me Thanks Pete and Hilary
I'm a Sri Lankan 🇱🇰 and farmer's markets are very common in Sri Lanka...it's nice to see how farmer's markets operates in the 🇺🇸USA. Keep up the good work 👍
Hii, have a great day!!
I love the fact that 100% of the money goes to the person that GROWS the product.
I enjoyed hearing from the other vendors and some of their stories! Have a great week!
Hillary is awesome!!! you have a real gem as a wife.
For all you people still buying your produce in a supermarket… this is what you are missing out on! Just listen to the chatter and look at the smiles on the peoples faces. This is what life is about 👌🏻
Awesome video 🙏🏻
Looking good Hilary and Pete. Enjoy a wonderful day.
I really enjoyed seeing you and your wife together at the Market .....
Love seeing you sporting a Sooners shirt! Boomer Sooner, Pete! Love the channel!
Last night game was a nail bitter
Your chicken sign is hilarious. Like why is the anxiety rooster staring into the sun with a flower in its beak? Then I remembered "chicken little" and "the sky is falling". lol!
Yours and Van Noble (rainbow pig) seem to be the most creative sign makers.
Greetings Ithaca from North Carolina...it's great to see both of you at the market!😊
I enjoy the energy at the Ithaca Farmers Market! You do a great job Pete reminding us of the importance of supporting local businesses. Keep those videos coming💜
Thank you for your support darling
I think Hilarie is so pretty! She seems so nice. You're a fortunate fellow Pete!
Its such a pleasure seeing you guys do well. I love the lessons we get to learn on your channel. Keep it up!
This is a very uplifting channel, enjoyable and calming.
Wonderful!! Great look into the farmer's market!! Quite interesting too. Seems like a good bunch of people. (WELL, they ARE farmers ) Nice to be among those kind of people. Thanks Pete, for letting me see and experience all this through your work..
Very personable people and a great project! Here in Austria there are small farm shops that are open around the clock. There you can insert the money and take the rest of the money yourself. I know this trust from my childhood, because during the lunch break when the shops were closed, the display shelves were outside and NO ONE stole anything. Even houses and cars were left open carelessly in my childhood, which is no longer imaginable today. Some farm shops have cameras, others don't. You get the products from different farmers in the region, you work together, which I find very gratifying and positive. Greetings from Austria
She don't lovezzz you, she loves your farming style 😀
I may never get the chance to meet you face to face, but I know good people when I see them, that's the reason yours was the first I subscribed to, the honest, down to brass tack approach, with a touch of humility and sincerity. Thanks for the awesome video and have a great week!
I always enjoy your Farmer's Market episodes---and this one was a clincher with the wife along! Great interviews with like minded folk there at the market and you just have to love the St. Bernard! We had one when I was in college---225 lbs of love on the paw. She was supposed to be a 'dry mouth', but I don't believe there is such a thing----it was a world of drool, lol, but her 'kisses' came with lots of loyalty and affection as well as a need for lots of paper towels.
Hilarie has such a pleasant way about her. You are so funny..goofing off when she left lol
From Oklahoma I am. Go Sooners. They're doing good this year. Love all your videos and your t shirt.
Have a great day. OU..
always enjoy my "visit" with you, Hillary and your farm! I don't know what it is about your channel but I can say "its relaxing!"
thanks!😎
😜😜😜. I found it crazy that UA-cam recommended you when I’ve subbed for awhile. Sure enough they deleted you and others when I was ill for a longtime and wasn’t watching all the time. Well this was a perfect video of something we’ve lost in our area out west cus development and more freeways was better so they thought. Every Thursday for years I sold my pottery of dishware and some handmade and blown glass at the street market that had a huge history. Once a month on a Saturday it was only vendors and stores that were local. It was special all the different seasons. Handmade and home grown that brought people from everywhere and a special walk around the historic city and parks. Also a greeter on a corner almost 100 and his stories gave ya a history of all the shops and how it was and even a story about everyone coming to pave the muddy streets with brick that still remains. Also sold at a market almost like the one you’re at that became indoors when weather changed. All those places are gone cus of COVID and new strip malls and taking over small farms along the development road. And boy was resale a no no with a hefty fine and word got around real fast. Treasure your market days and yes we need to go back to our roots even if ya don’t have a lot of land. This video and how you delivered it needs to be an ad on TV or wherever showing what is important to save our forefathers roots and the land that’s left. The drought is killing us for years and they say it will pass but am not too certain anymore. This video was special on so many levels even it ya snuck more food like those great sprouts and ya just took a break always trusting your neighbors just to take us around showing us what’s so special of a great market that should be in all towns just to support your fellow man creating abundance for everyone. And sharing more stories of where and why they do what they do. Sorry so long but this video made me passionate and grateful for what you and others do and always with a friendly smile and an ear for their own stories. Time for me to go back and see what I’ve missed cus I so enjoy your frankness in telling and sharing your own stories and the keen way you share them with such a calming voice. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Really enjoyed the visit today. 👍❤️🙋
Always inspirational to watch your videos, Pete and Hillary!
We are a medical doctor and a former program manager of a big international corporation going for a second career: livestock farming - started on pigs and eggs a few months ago. It's a steep learning curve for both of us. Gleaning some encouragement from your videos, Pete. Thanks for what you do!
I enjoy your videos so much! Thank you for sharing!
Another awesome Farmers market video 👍🏿
A billionaire grocer here in Canada a few years ago said "Oh, somebody is gonna die from food from a farmer's market!" He was implying that it's not "safe" to buy from "just any" farmer! And walk into some of his stores and his produce looks like it belongs on a compost heap! Made me so angry and made me go out of my way to shop at my local farmer's markets even more. Walk past his seafood area and you have to hold your breath it stinks so bad! His "fresh" chicken is sometimes slimy! His greed is outrageous.
Loblaws
@@lisapellitier2450 Bingo!
@@redmapleleaf4617 I hadn't seen or heard that name in decades. When I was a kid growing up in the 60's and 70's we had a few Loblaws stores in my hometown in Ohio. I guess back then they were a good store because a lot of people including my mother shopped there, but a lot of store chains have gone downhill over the years and apparently Loblaws is one of them.
Since watching your programme I make sure I support my local farmers, I fully agree with you , when you say premium product should ask a premium price.. It works both ways as I know I'm getting a good product, whether its eggs, milk, meat, or veg and I know it came locally, fresher ,you can't get...
Hi Pete and Hillary, thanks for the great video at the farmer’s market. Great video of both customers and vendors. You are so right that buying your food at farmer’s market is more healthy for the customer than store bought. Also it helps to insure that good quality food will be available for you to eat now and in to the future. Have a great 😊 day and take care.
fantastic to see you both on video at the market. We need more of you and Hillary there!!!
WOOOOOOHOOOOOO!!! There's that BOOOOOMER SOOOOOONER Shirt!! You guys teaming up together is great! Love to see you guys together. Uh Oh! Hilarie needs an Oklahoma shirt!! But, I like her Farmageddon shirt too!
I don't like re-sellers either! You all do have some beautiful produce. Really good stuff! I'm eating a salad grown right here in Cherokee County while I'm watching. It's good stuff.
Congratulations Bob!!
Congratulations to Main Street Farms!!!! A new baby is AMAZING!!!!! Life is so beautiful so much of the time, I wish you and your family happiness and blessings!
I have decided that you are the Mr. Rogers of UA-cam. And that is a compliment of the highest order my good man!
What a great life! I just love going to farmers’ markets and coming home with clean grown food! And, the people there seem to be really into what they are doing. It’s such fun. And, you are the perfect people person for running a business like you have. Your blue eyes shine and people love you. Good job!! ❣️🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼❣️
For me, the dependence on the handful of corporations for food is a serious problem and if something was to completely stop the supply of food we would be in trouble. We need more locally grown produce and livestock farmers, enough to support the community it's serving and to stop our dependence on the big food giants. Thank you for raising this issue and explaining it to us.
@@JC-uq5gi Well the path civilization is on atm is not sustainable. Its not about if we will go back to more traditional farming. But when.
And its all about perspective. You think we have to devolve. I think we devolved into what we are today cause of capitalism (Rat race too the bottom)
Capitalism is killing this planet, and i think we have seen peak age of capitalism. Goverments will have to come in and regulate much more. We are about to have alot of free labor for the first time in history due to AIs, that can do most of the manual easy labor. We will see a decline in workers neeeded.
And why not use them by having more of the population go into farming again now that we are getting "free" population thats not needed in factories in the cities.
Smaller farms are way more productive aswell. Farms under 5 hectar have 24% of worlds agricultural land area, but they produce 34% of the worlds food.
The bigger you get, the more spoilage and other waste you get. The US could pretty much increase their agricultural output by 50% by having only small farms.
We had that once. Big Ag took over. They used donations of dollars to lobbyist to have laws changed for independent farmers, and put them out of business.
Plus society were convinced that the need for independent farmers weren't needed. Just like independent neighborhood markets and butcher shops, fish markets. The Big Corporate Grocery stores had everything you needed in one place.
I had a large garden with lots of vegetables and some fruit til 1989. But, society convinced me why bother when you can buy it in the grocery store
@@MrDanisve You think we have seen peak capitalism? I think we are more likely to see a decline in democracy. The interweb was great at first, be we have too few controlling what we get to hear now. What is Bill Gates buying all this land for too?
@@JC-uq5gi No i mearly mention the US cause they are by far the most industrial in AG there is. About 99% of meat in the US is industrial made.
Oh and yes i can easy tell what the US needs. Rather easy with my outside objective eyes. I dont really care about us vs them. Like you do, with your 2 party system that makes hate and bias.
I can easy tell that US needs to rethink its healthsector hard. Same with how its financing education (Cause education varies so much dependant on the neighborhoods you live in) can be as good as Norway on average like it is in New England. While education can be as bad as wartorn African countries in the midwest..
Oh and i can easy tell that US needs to get rid of the guns, cause it has about same same crime level as France. But the crime is about 10 times as deadly.. Thats alot of wasted lives..
And i can tell US needs to rethink justice system, cause it has 4.2% of the worlds population in the US. But have 25% of all the worlds prisoners. Those numbers tell me something is very wrong. And you can easy tell whats wrong when you compare the Norwegian justice system with the american one. We treat people like people. You treat them like animals.
Our goal is to rehabilitate, so there is no more victims. US goal is to exploit that person for labor. The slavery never really went away, it just took on a new form.
While where i live, Norway. About 36% of our meat is industrial farmed.
We only have chicken all industrialized, and pigs are about 43% industrialized. Cattle/sheep are really not industrialized at all, think there is 1 farm in the whole nation.
And we are currently going back on industrial farming.. Cause people dont want chickens raised in a big hall where they are fed and never see sunlight..
Its illegal for me to import beef from the USA, cause of growth hormones and antibiotics use (aka raw capitalism, these things makes the animal grow quicker. Thus used alot in the US)
Im allowed to import beef from Nigera but not USA.. Then you understand how bad the food quality is..
When i look at Mcdonalds french fries, in the US they have 14 ingredients.. While here they have 3 ingredients.. Potatoe, oil and salt..
But if you want to keep living in the bubble, please do. But i would advice you to look outside abit.
@@COIcultist Democracy is kinda under threat yes, i can agree too that.
But its not Bill Gates you should worry about.
Its the subtle online "wars" going on between superpowers.. With propaganda, false info etc.
A single rich guy becomes quite the nobody when you compare them to the might of the centralized goverments of USA, Russia, China etc.
I mean China can whip up as much money as Jeff Bezos total fortune quite easy.. Just what the USA has in debt to China is 5x Jeff Bezos fortune.
I do hope we get more direct democracies tho, thanks to internet. So we can get rid of all this oligarchy we have in society atm.
Noone has never been truely a democracy yet, maybe except for the Swizz who has direct democracy. We are a mix between democracy and oligarchy.
The noble family that ruled the lands i live on, kinda still "rules" them. They own the historical mansion/castle still, about 25% of the forests and land in the area.
They run one of the biggest chains of lumber/building material we have in the country etc.
Its still the same family from the 1500s..
Oh and boy do they wield political and financial power.
I've been watching your channel for some time now. I enjoy every episode you present. I was raised on a small farm in Southern California back in the 60's and early 70's. My parents farm produced vegetables and fruit exclusively. We had no space for livestock. I am 72 years old presently. Prior to this last spring, for about 6 years, I tried my hand at raising goats and sheep, primarily for my own consumption. I live on a small two acre place in South Texas.
I've lived, in my teen years with two uncles, both farmers at that time in rural Kentucky. I learned a lot about big farming operations from them.
Reflecting back, I honestly have to admit, I miss the life of farming. I am too old now and struggle with ongoing health issues to be able to farm at any level. I do miss it so much.
I deeply appreciate every aspect of your work you put to video. I share many of the same convictions and thoughts you often express on life, farm work, personal ideas. Thank you.
One of the things that I've noticed about your programs is, I've not once heard you swear or cuss at any situation or frustration. This in itself shows me you and your family are people of integrity. Almost impossible to find in this day and age. Thank you!
I look forward to every new video you share. Hang in there, don't get frustrated with the negatives in the UA-cam crowd. You're doing great!
Patrick King
Wonderful video, thanks for sharing your day with us.
Its good good to see there are still many truck farmers in the area.
Great to see Hilarie and you together at the market. Some of the nice looks you give each other are darn cute. All the best.
Enjoyed the part about bartering I have done that My entire life, taught to Me by My Dad. Really enjoy Your channel.
Loved the content. Great seeing you and Hilarie together at market and working on the farm. Ipswich Queensland Australia :)
Definitely today's world needs local markets where you can eat fresh food that has been carefully and lovingly obtained.
Always enjoy going to the market with you
You are such a gentleman and down to earth man love your work greetings from a small organic farmer.
I ENJOY YOUR CHANNEL AND YOUR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT FARMING..... I ALSO WANT TO SAY HILLARY IS SO LOVELY AND HUMBLE..... SHE'S HAS A BEAUTIFUL PERSONALITY..... LOVE WATCHING...
I do enjoy the visits to farmers market...thanks for a good video.
What a privilege to get to see Hilary
I completely agree with the importance of supporting local farmers and businesses. I love the idea that the food pantry can get free veg at the end of market. My grandson worked for a grocery store here in bc and in the meat department he said they’d would through out good meat all time because they over bought, I hate such waste! Hilary does have such a beautiful smile. You got gold when you met and married her. May God bless you both and enjoy your marriage, children and farming. I miss my wonderful husband, so enjoy the love of your youth. 🇨🇦
So great to see the Camaraderie and mutual respect between farmers there. We could all use a healthy dose of that. Pete, visiting you and buying some goodies is definitely on my bucket list!
Made my day.
Thank you.
Love your videos been watching you guys for ages❤
Hey Pete thank you and Hillary I think you'll make a lovely couple and I believe y'all were genuinely in love with each other and care for one another y'all are great farmers thank you I enjoy your show enjoy your trips to the Farmers Market God bless you both and your family
We all should support small business. Small business built this country. Love your channel!!!
Finally a SOONERS Jersey, we've hit the big time with Pete !!
That’s a good looking shirt! BOOMER!!!
SOONER!!
Boomer!
I was there last Saturday, my first visit from lancaster, pa. In fact tonite is your hot Italian sausage with spaghetti squash, and red pepper, olive oil, black pepper. I a te a 4 0z portion, filled me up, was very good
Paul
Just trying to help. Use a simple three-prong circuit tester on the receptacle that the fencer is plugged into. The power supply itself could have a faulty ground or neutral. Or, the receptacle could have a faulty ground or neutral
Ok👍⭐
You have a beautiful bride there Pete. I also just realized you Ithica have gorgeous eyes - so blue! Thanks for the entertainment.
I love watching your videos about the farmers market - I like Hilary like to people watch.
Love the market videos. Thanks 👍
Awww Hillary looks at you with so much love!!! 💕
Born and Raised in Oklahoma! Boomer Sooners! Love the shirt.
This is awesome. Thank you both for taking us the the Farmers market . Very entertaining and educational.
It was nice to see Hillary in the camera more than the usual field walk moving pasture lines. That's not to say we don't want to see you, Pete!
Pete, I really enjoyed this video but now I’m waiting eagerly for the solution to the fence challenge! Your videos are a real pleasure because they’re filled with positivity and wisdom - thank you.
I love traveling with you at the market I just love me some Pete and Hilary
Love your video's. God bless you both.
Great video Pete. Nice to see more of Hillary. I love the way you're farmers market works. Being in south Florida, we have the same philosophy with beef. There is a tremendous amount of beef raised here. Now it is sold here in a similar manner as what you have. Veggies, some. I am starting to grow our own veggies now. Can't wait to see how the fence comes out
Such a treat to see you both, you had the pretty on with you! God bless you!
I enjoyed meeting you both off screen at the market yesterday! Some of your sausage went into greens and beans for dinner yesterday, and I'm impressed, it's much tastier than commercial pork. Gianelli has been replaced as my supplier!
Love this market day. Thanks for sharing!
I loved very much meeting your friends. Thanks Pete
I love the farmer’s market like this one
Yes i love the vids farmall sellall
love you guys great videos thanks much
Thanks for sharing 👍
America at its BEST!!..........thank you!
Another great video Pete!! Great to see Hilarie in the video as well! Hope you all have a blessed day!
what a wonderful way to spend the day!
Looks like you had a fun day, Pete. Thanks as always for sharing your wisdom!
I suggest that you bring your lady with you to fix fences, seems she knows all the ropes:)))
Really enjoyed your meet and greet of your fellow vendors and customers. Liked getting to know them a little bit.
I hope that you resolve the fence suspense Pete. Your area in upstate NY is a look back in time when we were reliant on one another. Thanks for sharing your video with us. Ed
Awesome video Pete and Hillary.
Utmost respect for what both of you have ventured into together. I'm glad we had the opportunity to visit the market this weekend to purchase from your stand, say hello and pick up many other items from some great vendors. Our 1st trip to Ithaca was time well spent and enjoyed. We will definitely revisit the Market. Keep up the great work, keep the jokes coming and good luck on the Farm.
Hi Doreen, it was nice meeting you and thank you for your business!
Fenced in and frantic. Well, I'm not ⚡SHOCKED⚡😄.
Good to see the two of you standing still...... sort of.
Local food is where it is. Thank you for sharing with us.
Pete your wife does have a wonderful smile! Your a lucky guy!
I enjoy see your videos. I look forward to them. Y'all are doing a great service to the local people. I am just now getting back into farming. I didn't realize how much I missed it. Keep up the good work. Stay safe. Oh it was nice seeing Hillary on video.
Pete my daughter asked if she could go “vegetarian”, I said sure as long as you eat meat 🥩 twice a week lol
Love seeing an Oklahoma Sooners shirt way up there. I have the same one! BOOMER SOONER from Oklahoma!
Farmer's Markets are awesome.
I don't know if you will see this or not but I just wanted to say I found your channel a year after this was made and I LOVE this channel. We have small farmers markets, nothing like that but we still shop at the little one we have. We don't have anyone who sells the meat options you provide so I order it direct from independent farms that ship direct. That is an exceptional market. :) Bless you!!
Always enjoy hanging out without you Pete.....take care.
my mother and i love watching your videos! very entertaining n educational, thank you!!
