We are a 1st generation family owned and operated Dairy Farm in Michigan.
It's that time of the year once again. Harvest Time. The whole family works together today as we start the process of chopping corn for silage.

Oh boy another driving lesson I love all of her facial expressions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Mackenzie she’s so cute and she’s only a reflection of her mom two wonderful women
I can tell you are Michiganders, you say "Yah." Great family.
Doesn't everyone say that? LOL :)
You two crack me up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love watching you
The true mark of dairy farmer. ALWAYs tired from the relentless schedule and immense amount of work.
Mackensie is so funny as she laughs at herself often. A lady comfortable in her own skin. The best kind of woman.
Great team work, a family that work together 👍👍👍👍
Glad the tire didn't blow-out on the hwy. you two be safe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok good , on the open the door thing , push in on it as you push the botton in on the handle, I had a International, that had a door like that too, it opened a lot easier with a push in on it as you opened it, love it thanks y’all BigAl California
Yes, exactly what we need to do in order to open the door. 😊
Talk about a Family Affair. This Family is an ALL Hands 🖐 🤚 on Deck. You Gotta Love ❤️ it. 👍
That’s funny at the end of the video when you were talking about not being a thrill seeker and the next shot is Sanders riding his bike off the silage pile😂 I noticed that Kevin has really warmed up to the camera. I remember your earlier videos he was a little bit more quiet. You can tell he makes the effort to because he knows making videos is important to you and you enjoy it therefore it’s important to him👍
The nice family atmosphere is what makes your videos great
Thanks!!
It’ll take forever to pack the silage using the bicycle! 😂
Beautiful gorgeous mckenzie 😍😘😍😘🚜🚜
Young Sarah from Farming fixing and Fabrication u tibe,Sarah just got a new Freightliner with about a hundred thousand miles on it

You gotta Love Kevin and his many expressions.😬 You have a very Cool 😎 and Close Family.👍

"Mercy sakes! Looks like we got are selves a convoy!" lol
that clamp scene takes me back to filing them. Doing it one day with a backrake and the clutch shaft snapped so i couldn't get out of gear - heading for the wall = exit tractor head first knocking the off button on the way out! quick weld later and back at it. Prayer was offered then!!
Have fun school clothes shopping! 😀
She was able to find some really good deals. 😁😁

Great video folks. Have a safe fall.
Good video guys 👍 it sure looks like you guys had a long day.

Lord Mackenzie is so funny 😊 I'm glad to see she's back driving her truck. I know it's a big help to y'all when all the kids are their to help out on the farm. Your older kids may have other jobs and all but I'm sure they will always find time to help on the family farm.
Good job everybody:):)
Two beautiful young twins.
Bravo les girls, and the harvester 6910 it’s very good machine with your husband
i love fall time
Beautiful god bless!
Hi! New to your channel! It reminds me of summers in Illinois working on my uncle’s farm. I live just outside of Detroit. I didn’t realize that I missed your your lifestyle. Thanks! I’ll be watching more.
Welcome to our channel!! Thank you for watching! 😊
I remember hunting pheasants in the corn on our farm at 9 years old and the corn was way shorter then. The corn is so much taller now You would never see them now when they flush. Crazy.
Good luck with college Kensy
I LOVE home made salsa! That looks good. Still a few weeks out on the corn here in Connecticut but what a great growing season it was minus all the extreme wind it had to hold on tightly through. Take care Ronda and family!
Glad you've got good crops this year!!
You're a good semi driver too!
Better watch out, some over the road trucking company is going to grab you two gals up. The two prettiest truck drivers I've seen
Good video again it was good to see her on the video tell her to get back on the videos videos pretty eyes good job working y’all keep the good work up tell everybody I said what’s up be safe
At the beginning , about the flat tire. I don't worry about those, not when I have seven more. 😉
Another great video.
Best wishes.
Yup, ran the truck again today with the bad tire... 🙃
Hi from Australia !!!
re bonjour merci pour cette belle vidéo d ensilage 👍👍👍👍
I appreciate yours and Kate's channel, interesting to learn how our food products are grown, living in Hawaii most of our stuff get imported, but we have a few cattle ranches, been driving end dump for 30 years, nice to see something different, love your tight knit family atmosphere, you guys rock!
Thank you for watching!!
Hello 👋 🖐🏿🖐🏿
When you say " well blow it up for me" the first thing that popped into my mind was dynamite, kerboom. Ha ha
No more blowing up that tire. It's literally blown up!
Lol! 😂
you need to put a bit of extra side on your trucks so you don't waste too much going over one side, love the family day !!!!!
Wow
we love go time :)))
like #1000!! another great vid. take care & stay safe. cheers
Thank you!!
Salut vous tank you vidéo magnifique super
It's a never ending cycle when you run a farm. It's easy to see your husband is still so in love with you. Have a great day
Love your crops come in! do you think you have enough for the winter a Spring? How is happy to see Mackenzie. it's good to see family working together.
We should have plenty to last until next year. 😁
I love the smell of fresh cut silage and when it is hauled by a pretty lady that makes it even better... I hope you cleaned MacKenzie's truck out. If I remember correctly she had a go round with some spiders last year. Rhonda what is the tank for mounted to the right of the chopper cab?
Seems like spiders have a way of finding their way into the trucks. 😬
The tank on the chopper is for applying dry inoculate to the product we are chopping.
Poland farmer Tomek greets 🇵🇱
Hello again, I am so impressed with all the equipment that you have on your farm. I am a fairly new viewer and tried guessing where you are located. I thought Indiana at first because of how your cow barns are constructed. Lot of dairies in the Fair Oaks area. Then I decided maybe Iowa. Don’t remember why. Was surprised to learn you are in Michigan. I can relate to your operation and life style in 3 very diverse ways. Be safe young lady.👍👍🛫🚛💨💨💨
What are your 3 diverse ways??
Acres of Clay Homestead 1. Retired Ag pilot! Although never sprayed corn. Mostly cotton, alfalfa, and grains in Arizona. 2. Wife worried about me a lot so I quit and started driving an 18 wheeler. Drove for food grade tank truck outfit and loaded milk here in Clovis, New Mexico. Loads would go to Wisconsin, South Dakota, Alabama, Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, California, Arizona, and the Carolinas. Amazing the amount of milk that is shipped around the country. We now have the largest cheese plant in the country here in Clovis. They process well over a million pounds of milk a day. Have a very nice day and I enjoy your videos. 😸🚛💨💨💨🛫
You gotta try chopped mangos in your salsa, it sounded crazy to me but after I tryed it, it was great
I don't think I've ever made it with mango... Might have to try that. 😊
@@acresofclayhomestead it's good, give it a try
💛💛
Funny story we live in the city. I bought my granddaughter a bird feeder cause she loves cardinals well long story short apparently there’s sorghum seed in there cause now it’s growing in our back yard 😂
Lol. 😂 I would love to see cardinals at my feeders!!
Acres of Clay Homestead we had three females here today right above the sorghum
Now all the concrete runways and side walls make sense, damn sure tell this isn’t your first harvest, many hands make the work look like a well oiled process!
I'm glad they make sense now. 😊
Add yer favorite spaghetti sauce to yer salsa! really good!
I can understand why you don’t like pushing up the piles. That’s a long way up there. You’re gonna have some happy cows with fresh feed. Does the corn ever ferment in those big piles? I guess you really would have some happy cows then. It would make cow tipping easier. I may be a city girl, but I know, cow tipping is not real. It might be possible if they were drunk, though. Hehehe. Your family is like a well oiled machine, working together to get the job done. By the way, your salsa looked delicious! Blessings, Love & Hugs from Vicki in Ft. Worth, Texas 🇨🇱🇺🇸👍❤️🥰🙏
Yes, the silage goes through a fermentation cycle, but it doesn't turn into alcohol. it turns the sugars into and acid. It's a way of preserving feed.
Great to see such a good crop of corn being harvested 👍 are u totally self sufficient in winter feed for the animals 🤔
No, we don't farm enough acres to be self sufficient.
❤️
Sanders at home school? It was good to see your daughter. You cannot tell young boy to be careful I tried. As always enjoyed the videos.
Yes, Sanders is homeschooled
Yo-yo
How do you Coordinate or Communicate with the Others as to Where to Load inside the Trailer ?
It's all done by hand signals, and the truck driver can kinda judge when to move. 😁
Holy smokie's that's some tall corn. If I had a farm I would harvest corn that way, clean's up the field good. Are you guys going to have to build a roof over the silage ? Or just tarp it ? HAPPY TUESDAY. 😉👍👍✌✌🙏
The silage will get covered with plastic.
I noticed your row spacing looked close are you planting on 20 inch rows? Enjoy your channel
Actually we plant 15" rows. Good eyes for noticing. 😊
I hope everyone wears a well fitted mask. The public is a bad place. We have years of Covid-19 to go. Sanders is the epitome of youth. I loved how you said,"nice" when he came down off the corn pile and spun around. In such a short time he won't care about that anymore. I wish I could just once more see my son doing that very kind of thing!
I refuse to wear a mask whenever possible. I service a God that is so much bigger than this virus and I refuse to live in fear of it.
Acres of Clay Homestead good for you.
Mackinzie is a pro truck driver.
Pre - Trip lol. Flat tire
👍
Clear the streets. Na just kidding!!!
Nice looking corn you guys got how many acres do you have and how many cows do you have
Two beautiful girls
I believe that’s the first cab tractor I’ve seen on your farm. Y’all seem to prefer open station tractors.
They also have a Challenger tractor with a cab.
@@farmboy5622 Oh, that's right. I forgot about that tractor.
