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.

Millennial Farmer It looks great. Can’t wait to go use the map
how do i download it on the PlayStation 4 ???
Already did, I WANT TO PLAY ITTTT
It didn't come out on Xbox
Millennial Farmer ok I saw that that looks very good
“I’m used to working with big equipment”
That’s what she said...
Well, you better leave her because apparently she has never been satisfied in the past.
That's what my ex and her sister said :D...
Cameron Alberts I’ve been saying that all day at a sleep over 😆
I used to own a lawn care and landscape business about 25 years ago and can offer you a tip on edging your lawn. Over the next couple of edgings keep working the trench deeper until you are using the full depth of a new blade. If you keep up with your normal edging routine the deep trench will allow you to speed up the time it takes and it will look great. You will have a green edge that doesn't have any yellow or dead grass leaves and look like a professional is being paid to take care of your lawn.
As a sportsman, THANK YOU for being part of the CRP, and wildlife habitat restoration projects. I APPRECIATE IT!!!
My wife and I are hooked on this show. We aren’t farmers. We know nothing about farming but are learning. This is fascinating. This guy is a really good on-camera host.
Thank you so much!
I appreciate your talking about preserving wetlands and prairie. So valuable and so poorly understood by most people. Keep up the good work.
As a hunter which also means conservationist I have to say kudos for keeping and increasing some habitat. cheers from Canada
You are right on the edging. Nothing more satisfying than a clean edge between grass and concrete.
I know someone who would love to do some lawn work at your place who just so happens to be from MN.... :)
Ryan Knorr Lawn Care this needs to happen
@@jordanrobillard653 I'm all for it!
Allan Hayne beat you to it🤣🤣🤣
There is definitely something special about the relationship between a man and his lawn.
That optional second door is so useful................. Us mere mortals who drive the smaller tractors would know that !!!!
11-June-2020.We here in Southern Germany have a sytem like you do, and each farmer MUST have a wild flower buffer around each field to give the inseces food and home, it works as all the farm talk about how little they have to spray, the bugs like there food and they leav our alone, win win for both of us.The moor ground allway has weeds anyway, ask your kids what kind of wild flowers they like, and talk to a bee keeper if they want to set up there portohive trailer in that wet area.By for now.
Sour Corn. Lowlands Your doing the best solution. Thumbs Up to you and your dad.
Zach’s “little tractor” is 150+ hp and my big tractor is 48 hp
Our little tractor is a farmall H
My tractor is a valmet 500 around 30 hp
Nice having that right side door to squeeze out of instead of climbing out the back window like I had to do a cpl weeks ago in my 5085E.
We have a whole island in my area dedicated to conservation. They leave part for wetlands, but they still farm most of. All for the birds.
Due to prices I plowed a nice stand of green oats under with a moldboard plow as it wasn't to late to plant soy beans. Had quite a few people rubber neck as they drove by! I feel your pain.
The Milwaukee "Pole Saw" attachment is great! Just watch the slope in the bar when tightening the chain. The Bar droops a bit when loose, then straightens up as you tighten. So its easy to set your tension in the relaxed state and end up with it too tight after locking the bar down. So just hold the bar up when setting tension or set it a little looser than normal and recheck after the bar is tightened back.
Schulte makes a 42 ft batwing, that should meet your wishes for a bigger mower, crazy how a 15 ft batwing use to be huge and now it’s like owning a 60” lawn mower, it’s never big enough!!
It happens. We plant cotton in Florida. If it’s one crop we have to replant it’s cotton. If we get a lot of rain and the it turns hot the ground can get hard as a rock. Thankfully most of our land is irrigated.
I’ve been waiting anxiously ever since you posted your story about this nice video hurts to plow that crop like that but it’s life
You are such a Dad! (Kid's are darn lucky)
My farm is 0.1147842056933 acres in Minneapolis, and I'm expecting a bumper crop of cherry tomatoes this year. Thanks for growing the corn an soybeans so we don't have to. The racoons always eat mine anyway. Glad you fixed the pool too.
that’s cool about the Molene. When my dad was alive his hobby was buying and selling old die cast farm equipment
1topfueldrag 👍👍
Looking forward to the 1/64 G750 release. 😁👍👍
I am grateful for our farmers. And I hold great respect for farming as a profession, above almost any other. The farmer is and always has been a mechanic, meteorologist, businessman, ecologist, I.T. person, husband, father, and God knows what else, all out of necessity. Not a man like it in the world. Who woulda thought that the modern renaissance man was hiding behind all that hick. ;)
Farmers also have a strong command of the fundamentals of global markets. They are in the business of selling (or not) what they produce, which happens to be essential to life, and perishable, so nothing is for certain in farming until the check clears, and so farmers can afford to risk it all again for at least one more year.
Only 4" trees. My dad bought a rotary mower for his JD to clear 80 acres that had been neglected since my grandfather died. He had a choice between two JD rotary mowers that could handle 2" or 6" trees. 6" trees all the. He figured anything the tractor could drive over would be cut. Now all he had to worry about was Osage orange puncturing the tires.
Schultz makes a giant batwing. Local farmer had one testing it mowing corn stalks right down from my house. If i had to guess i would say it was 35-40ft.
Lol I watch Allen all the time for lawn tips. Paid off. His episode where his neighbor mowed lines towards his house became real. I started edging then my neighbors who I dominate started. I started mowing stripes...now my neighbors started and TOWARDS MY HOUSE!. Allen quote "My reaction must be swift and firm. I gotta let them know where I stand!"
Well hopefully you faired better than we did with the storms. We got close to 7.5 inches of rain and about 3250 acres got hailed . Our popcorn got totaled out today so I guess time for plan B. I here on tearing up crop. A lot of time and not a lot of sleep goes into the crop. I guess hopefully the rest of the year goes better
I own a smaller woods brush hog. They can take the 4 inch unless it is a willow/ironwood. From my experiences, the blades (Chinese steel) will break first unless you go with a cheap grade 8 or even a grade 5 bolt as a shear pin. The clutches can only take so much. Stock up on clutch discs and shear pins.
I don't know why but there was something satisfying about watching you mowing though all those trees.
Dziękuję za twoja prace
Your tractor door situation reminds me. Their was a man who bought a brand new car. He left the dealership and went to a store to buy groceries. When he got back to the car he noticed he locked the keys in the car. When he called the dealership and asked which window would be the cheapest too replace if he broke one to get into the car. The salesman informed him that he had forgotten the spare keys and they would send someone over with them. The man replied " COULD YOU HURRY IT LOOKS LIKE RAIN AND I LEFT THE TOP DOWN "
I’m a beginning farmer of a 40x60 foot plot behind my house and I find your videos not only educational but entertaining as well. I’ve noticed, since I’ve watched so many MF’ing videos now, UA-cam sees fit to provide me suggestions for new John Deere infomercials. I’ve watched some of these suggested videos and I truly hope that this harvesting season JD will look to provide you, a MF’er, a trial of the new Signature Series X1100 combine. To complement that combine, the 50ft hinged frame draper along with 16 row folding corn head would be nice to see featured in your videos. It's what I'm considering if I expand my farming situation, also it would be a MF’ing delight.
Zachy boy We are all over the John Deere page trying to get you a New combine they just dropped on their page💪 and you should ALWAYS ALWAYS re-dip the oil stick 3 times ol buddy 🤣🤣🤣 When checking through oil!!!!
Man a skid loader for yard work! My hero. I just have a craftsman wheel barrow
I am fascinated with the complexity of farming. Thanks for explaining it all so well.
THANK YOU FOR HELPING SAVE OUR WETLANDS! I always tell naysayers that the good farmers care about the earth more than anyone because they know to protect their livelihood. Thank you for growing our food and for aiding conserve species at risk.
Sincerely,
A professional reclamation specialist and conservationist.
@Tsunauticus III both! many species of birds nest in wetlands during migration. wetlands adjacent to farmland like Zach has here purify the runoff water and prevent chemicals from seeping into groundwater. they also reduce flooding, protect against drought, reduce GHG emissions, and more. wetlands are one of the most critically undervalued spaces we have since the benefits they provide are taken for granted.
MN millennial farmer map is awesome I'm working on 450 hours and still love it
On the subject of toy tractors, back in the day when tractor supply moved to our area they had a whole corner section of the store with just die cast toys. They still have some but not near as many. Back when they first started it was known as Farm and Family Center.
Minneapolis Molines are good tractors. We use them a lot. Use a 670 for cutting and baling hay. I run an old Z narrow front end with a hand clutch.
Today we used the Minneapolis 445. The baler is a JD 14T. Gotta keep it old school!! Baled about 400 bales of alfalfa. Tomorrow be just as much but it'll be grass hay and some road ditch. Love it. Makes you appreciate how it was before all the technology these days.
We Bush hog trees high the first time so that when we drive over them they will be more apt to bend over instead of stabbing a tire. Then after they begin to rot a little we come through the next time and cut them low. Works great. Good video.
I remember many many years ago the Hydro company came onto our farm and cut a path 120 feet wide and about a mile long for massive transmission lines. So my Grandfather cut a deal with them to get them to pay him to clear the land, pay him for the land use and we used all of the good logs for a New barn and sold the rest. Today it's all hay ...
You better make at least 20,000 Moline toys. You have a loyal fan base that will gobble them up
That's actually satisfying how field cleaned up
2.9 thousand likes and 29k views..thats 1 in 10...
Come on yall...this is genuine family television..
Let's get this farmer some likes yall!!!!
Farming simulator games is the reason why I take interest in farming. You're videos are very educational for someone who wants to learn about it.
So satisfying to do landscaping in have nice Chris edges on the lawn I agree.
Finally getting Zak on board with "Team Milwaukee." There's hope there yet. The M18 QUIK-LOK system is pretty sweet!
Another thing is I really learned a lot more about farming from you as well because I’m just a person who is 16 years old and I’m not a farmer But I do work with my dad three days week and I also do a little landscaping as well
I like all of the lawn care in this video. 😀
Love your Sunset Silver - Rocky Mountain Quartzite flagstone by your pool!! That stuff is as bulletproof as the green machines you run!! Love your channel!! Keep up the good work!!
Love the woods batwing and seeing the best tractor on the farm the Moline 💪👍
I love milwaukee tools, had nothing but good luck with them
Im a teen and I love lawn care I mean where else can you get an hour of free time to relax.
I've mowed stuff bigger than that with my grass deck. That might have something to do with the stack of broken spindles that I have for said deck as well though. Still anything less than an inch is for the lawn mower. I don't break out the bush hog until I'm ready to get serious, or don't feel like sharpening the chain saw.
“Hi this probably sounds like I’m joking but I need help getting out of a tractor”
Where I work I helped plant green into a triticale cover crop after taking it off with a mower and baling and wrapping for haylage
I dont think you have a clue how blessed you are
I'm pretty self aware of exactly where I stand.
Hey Zach, you should look into your states nursery and plant some “good” trees in that area. I know your son enjoys hunting and I’m sure you could create some nice habitat in that spot for him!
We had a bit of water damage on our rye field and had to plow it under, now there's sweet peas on it for us to eat
I have depression but I’m happy when u upload man love ur channel
Came here yesterday after seeing the LCN wear your hat and got curious... Stayed and watched every video from that amazing 2019 harvest - now lol. Really enjoy the content
Those edges are extra crispy for sure!
About the Moline, that's AWESOME! I WANT ONE!
I love lcn's and NYFG channels i watch them and yours everyday thanks for sharing another great video
I’m pumped to farm your farm on Farming Simulator (that sentence reads weird). I hope they have random dead birds on the map so I can ask them if they are okay.
William Gainey it’s not coming out; he meant the walk through video from The Squad was coming out. It has been sent to Giants for testing, but isn’t on their testing list yet
As much as i hate video games- that was the perfect comment :D
@@thedieseldaniel3082 yea leave it to a german company to not get an american map out on time other wise any german map, UK map is out on time
Reminds me of the movie "Field of Dreams", plowing under the crop, lol.
Love that movie
“It ain’t much but it’s honest work.” It looks really fun!!
Schulte FX-742 42 ft width batwing. looks to be used by airports on maintaining the grass
Wish you would do a hour long video with the camera mounted on piece of tillage equipment, its so mesmerizing, would be great to fall to sleep to!
Oh, and I dig the rear angle on the wing! 👍
You are lucky to be getting rain. Here, we have 400 acres of cotton lost to < 2" of rain in last 8 months and 320 acres of corn not planted.
No way anyone could beat Andy (Harmless Farmer) at the flip cup challenge!
Can you imagine the threeway colaboration.... Millennial Farmer, Cleetus McFarland, LCN..... Mind blowing! Farming, Racing, Crispy Edges!
Another great vid. Thank you for sharing with us all. You would never be allowed that swimming pool here in NZ. They would take one look at that and say either "Pull it down" or "fence it" to make it child proof with security fencing. Yes they even go as far as use helicopters to overfly areas to see who has and doesnt have swimming pools... The Councils do that once a year or every second year and then use the photos to check for swimming pools/new buildings etc then they check is their permits.... all money making of course....
You always put a smile on my face, thanks.
Thank you for putting it in the easement. It is appreciated. By outdoorsman.
Excited to get one of those MM tractors this fall as I collect tractors but mostly JD. My earliest is a 1949 2 row JD Cornpicker .
8:20 "Don't like anything getting hailed on" & walks away from a travel trailer outside...
I would laugh at getting stuck in the tractor but I’ve had the same thing happen, my solution was to go out the back window😂😂
This is my opinion and I stand by it, you have your opinion so stand by it.
But you're not aware of the fact that this corn isn't grown for food, .7 of an acre is hardly anything, we're trading it for wildlife habitat, and the native grasses need to be seeded months before harvest nears. What have you done to feed the hungry lately? You formed your opinion without any prior knowledge. That's a simple mind's tactic.
And also on farm sim I have been getting all of your machines for the map even the Minneapolis Moline
Oh yeah those edges are tight tight! I always knew you were a lawn lover! 😂👊
I love it when two of my favorite channels collide!
He's also gay as well
we had a neighbor who would plant rye just for the purpose of plowing it under to provide certain chemical value to his soybean planting-(1950's)And i think rye bread is the best---yes --it did disturb me---but there is much of that in agriculture---crop boosting method's--
6:17 hey zack, not sure about woods but one of my customers by Pipestone has an about 30ft wide mower of this style. I believe they use it like a stalk chopper.
You said you were short on fill... Well, let me introduce myself! I'm Phil!
Swift response
That batwing chomped through that thick growth👍! Cheers 🍻 from Prairie Sunset Ranch ☀️
Can't wait for the MN Millennial Farmer map to come out in FS19
He said it comes out tonight??
I think so
Love the channel, Schulte makes a 42' batwing, it is a monster. Takes a heck of a tractor (in comparison to most tractors used for brush hogging) to handle it, you should have more than sufficient hp in your current stable.
When woods makes you a wider bush hog, just let me have that one you got there! Lollol
Most people have a little lawn trailer for there lawn mower to pull. To pick up dirt in drive way. And Mrs. Should have a hubby list.
Was literally thinking about a replica of his farm bring made for farming sim and how cool it would be. Omg it's a thing 😍
New subscriber here, ex Ontario farmer from Canada, your videos are awesome, keep them up.
Took the time to edge last week...so very satisfying
Taking pre orders on the Minneapolis Molines? Sounds like an awesome Christmas gift for the relatives I like.
Awesome!!! Greetings from South Africa
Name Dropping LCN. Good man
Not only are you a great actor Zach, but apparently he's particular about his manscaping. No wonder Becky always has a smile when she comes to see you throughout the videos. Just ordered the MPL shirt in large, said there's only one left in stock people! Better get the last one! 😂🇺🇸🐮💪❤️
Lol, nice!
