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.

I’m not a farmer myself. But I have grown up with an admiration for agriculture, machinery, and the lifestyle. I’ve grown to look forward to every video that you put out. I’ve learned quite a bit from your videos over the last few months.
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say thank you for giving those who may not be directly involved with farming, a window into the daily life! Keep em comin’!
Thank you! These type of comments mean a lot!
@@MillennialFarmer I too am not a farmer, but most of my extended family were and are. Your video's are great due to your true Minnesotan dry humor and the kick ass equipment you display, other than that lil red chevy. They sell actual trucks where you bought that?
Millennial Farmer I’m 14 and I want to be a farmer as well💪
@@Dirtanddieselphotography
Congrats on your desire to be A Farmer...
Wherever Life has brought you up to this point in Time...
Now is the time for you to become, A SPONGE...
Because you need to try to SOAK UP every bit on Knowledge and Information surrounding the Job of being A Farmer...
With the Internet and UA-cam these days, Learning lots of different aspects of Agriculture and Farming is easier depending on what type of Farmer you interested in becoming, such as Cattle, Grain, Dairy, Hay, Poultry etc...
A Farmer is a Man or Woman who wears Many Hats...
They hafta be...
A Leader...
A Business Man or Woman...
A Truck Driver...
An Engineer...
A Mechanic...
A Welder...
And the List Go on...
And one Great thing you can do now at 14 yrs old is start looking and asking around for Farmers who need Part Time Help, cause hooking up with a Farmer will get you off to a great start...
Good Luck...
Agreed 100%
shot my first turkey today. scared the hell outta everyone in the frozen food section
🤣🤣🤣 congrats!!!
Awesome 🦃 👀
👅
I got drawn for the hunt that start in may.
🤣🤣🤣
Nice...
GIVE JIM A CAMERA and give him a UA-cam channel called THE JIM SHOW
Holy buckets!
Let’s get it started
Yes
Jim's Channel name is "Working for the MF'ing man".
I'll ask him 🤣🤣
The new tractor and seeder seams to be doing a pretty good job. It is really nice of John Deer to let you Demo there new equipment. I'm not a farmer but have worked running a tractor doing plow in the bottom land of the Sebean River in Southeast Texas. The ground was river bottom and we did plowing to turn the soil up so it would dry before planting Watermellon and Okra. Nice to see the new equipment in action. Yes I have lived in many places and worked for many different farms.
Just because JD provides a showcase brand new tractor or implement doesn't
mean it's a fully developed no bugs tractor or implement.
You're doing their engineering work in the real world.
Great show!
I think we should have a 2020 machinery tour. The other one feels pretty outdated as a lot has been changed.
Toby and James Goldsmith I second this
I third this
I fourth this
I fifth this
I sixth this
Damn... as a guy that is a million miles away from this guy farming, thank you for all that you do. Seriously, that's no easy job and every time I enjoy a meal, thank you!
It is refreshing to hear a UA-cam say thank you to the little people that make them what they are. Thanks to you and your family and all the farmers that feed the world.
I can’t wait to come home from Afghanistan. Back to Minnesota and see the corn being waist high. Miss farm fields. Grew up on my uncles farm and have always missed it. Much respect to you for doing what you do keeping food on our tables and giving other people something to laugh at.
Luke Gardner I’m going to assume (yes I know what it spells) that you are in the the military Thanx for your service from a Bubblehead
Thanks for your service brother from Canada
Thank you for your service sir
Keep up the good work friend, chair force vet here!
Stay safe.
You've got a heart of gold Zach. You're in farming and the UA-cam Channel not only to educate the general public about the production side of agriculture but to also to help people when they're down on their luck such as with Andy. You're a credit to humanity sir. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us. Good luck with your planting...take care and be safe Zach.
Oh man, thank you for the kind words!
Farmers helping farmers. I grew up on a farm. It was a normal part of it. Sickness getting hurt, equipment failure and in some cases older farmers don't retire. They didn't ask for help, but very appreciative when you did. Best occupation in the world!!!
Zach your channel is by far better than the reality shows that people have to pay to watch! I grew up working for a couple of dairy farms near Duluth and it’s a blast watching your operation. I purchased some of your merch and glad to support our Minnesota farms! Keep up the awesome work! Thunder!
Who else sees the exhaust lights/vents on the 8RX as a smiley face.
@Varnce Are you the Hall Monitor of this Channel?
Off the husk is my favourite one and my favourite podcast is when Randy is talking about the cannon ball. It was so funny and god knows how he or his brother made it to adulthood.
Yes
Andy deserves all of our prayers.He is an example to all of us,thank you for making mention of him.
When you get to 500k I will donate 500$. Let’s pay it forward my fellow Americans! You’re doin a great thing Zach!!
Last time I was this early, Jim hadn’t gotten the tractor stuck yet.
I got an ad featuring Zach on my way to watch a video by Zach.
E F was it Dakota micro
It’s just great that you show everything to see how much it takes to feed the world Excellent!
I’m a 62 year old farmer from Alberta Canada, love watching and can’t believe how similar farming is here to Minnesota. Enjoy your channel very much👍👍👍
You know Zach is having a stressful day when he doesn't even ask are you okay 😂😂
yah, there's nothing like having brand new equipment and things keep happening, it don't matter if its small stuff... small stuff adds up, and after a couple of hours goin at half speed and runnin up n down the stairs 10+ times, that's why farmers might like to sneak a beer in with lunch
Looks like he didn't listen to the train horn
@@cmusic52 hahahahahahahahahahahahaha lol oh telling the tines its naughty lol we have so much same issues with the deere planter too same thing wich were thinkiing about getting rid of it in the feature and getting a new kubota planter
Love the 410 RX and the high speed planter. Where was the tire pressure joke when you were fueling up??😂
I said that on his previous video 😂😂
My God.. needless to say I'm addicted to this channel, I'm 66 years old, engineer and builder, I've done some dumb things that resulted in living in braces on both legs.
I'm speechless to come up with my appreciation for your advice to check out the Harmless Farmer, my gawd, sat here in tears watching his video of his accident, and how he is blessed with a family that knows how life can be changed, and how a family reacts to the unheard of.
I can't thank you enough for the recommendation!
I’m not a farmer or in the US 🇺🇸. Really interesting stuff you planting 🌽. Cool planter
You are one of the good guys out there doing your job then also promoting things that need support.
You deserve the success of this channel, come on everyone let’s get Zach to the Million.
I love to pretend I’m driving an 8rx and I’m planting 100’s of acres but really I’m driving a tiny la 100 series throwing grass seed on a half acre plot of land.
John Mulligan you can at least put your phone in a holder on tractor and punch a bunch of icons on the screen every time you start a task.
It's the thought that counts!
I think everyone has those days, we all know what you are going through.
My mom had an amazing garden when growing up. I regret not helping her more with it but because of that garden we ate great food. You sir are one of Americas unsung hero's. Thank you for all the hard work you put into you're job. MMMMMMMM I❤Corn First video I have seen of this great man on UA-cam and I subscribed.
Thank you John Deere for letting Zack test your beautiful equipment... He takes such good care of all of his equipment and the whole property where he lives... I love watching his channel and do it daily... God Bless one and all...
Millennial Falcon! Haha! Yes.
You deserve 500k minimum Zak and family your all a delight to watch from sunny England 😂👍
Never thought those words “Thunnnder” and “You Okay?” Would make me happy and laugh
Nice video! I am a diary cow hoof trimmer and I just did a ride-along with one of the large dairies I work for to make a planting video and I couldn't believe the technology that is used!
12:36 “ur naughty”
Zach, Thank You for the shout out to the “Harmless Farmer” Both of you are great voices for Agriculture!! Been watching both of you since you both started!
I have that utmost respect for what you are doing for the farmers and the farming community. I was in the United States Coast Guard and we have the motto Semper Paratus which means always ready. You exemplify that motto. You also remind me of the Chief Warrant Officers I worked with after leaving enlisted service and becoming an officer. You have great skills and knowledge. You frequently thank the collective us for watching the videos. I would like to thank the collective you for making these videos.
Hey Thank You All Farmers GOD Bless You All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm proud of you zach! After the third time tearing row 14 apart, I personally would hsve started throwing things.....
Throwing things helps exactly how?.......
@@paulcopeland9035 Nothing but venting aggravation.
Paul Copeland it just makes you feel better, and I would rather throw something instead of bringing the hammer out and smashing something
Paul Copeland throwing things fixes everything.
Holy cow your soil looks like coffee grounds and where we farm it is almost mistaken for beach
Always great! Also, Amen for remembering Andy, he is a great inspiration for everyone. We need to left him up at this time.👍
I've been watching these types of videos, and I can't help but admit that I wish that I could be involved with the agriculture business. I live near enough farms that I can always see the local farmers working and they seem happy to do it. Getting into the industry is difficult and its nearly impossible to actually get the land, equipment, and knowledge to be successful.
Start off small by WWOOFing or helping out during harvest seasons. I've picked coffee in Hawaii and my boyfriend helped on a farm in Hawaii and I've been a trimmer and harvester in California. You pick up a lot of knowledge just being in the environment. Now I've had my own garden for two years and I learn more and more about agriculture everyday just by getting myself in the dirt. You'd be surprised how much food you can grow on a small piece of yard or land.
Me Too!
"The company of John Deere, John Himself called me" - funny!
It will be funny, if Deer himself called him :D
The name of John Deere CEO is John C. May. So May be that’s why. Deere employee here
The planter should be called: Optimusseed
I wish you well on the 500K goal! Thanks for sharing.
You're a hell of a guy Zack, love how you selflessly help others out. - Dave
Hey Deere, if that frame to hose connection is important, how about a hose clamp? A $.79 part could save a lot of aggravation.
Exactly. I would assume John Deere figured that because it is under vacuum, it would hold it in place. However, it's not under vacuum during transport or when servicing. Zach may get the usage for free, but also ends up being John Deere's guinea pig.
@@jameschristie4596 free machine, not his responsibility for repairs. Looks like zach is coming ahead and John Deere is sweating it wont fail on camera.
Sure, but hose clamps cost time and money to put on. Which you as buyer of the machine are paying for. Also, new machine = new problems
At least a zip tie🤔🤔
I have to say honestly I don't want to deal with a hose clamp on all of those lines. This way I can remove them without any tools. It was just a bug on a new piece of iron. That hose won't pop off ever again. They never have on our other planter.
Its good to see the real side to farming sometimes. Breakdowns happen and weather gets bad. Great video Zack.
Thank you Zach, for giving us great quality videos to enjoy! Love watching you do what you love best! Growing up in South Georgia on my dad’s farm. I have always loved helping him & had a desire to farm myself. But, the economy got tough & I had to pursue a different career. So, it inspires me so much to see your videos & your operation. Keep feeding America bro! Farm on!!!!
I had an open platform trucking business for 35years. Sold and retired several years ago. I have hauled every kind of machinery including agricultural equipment and have been in JD and Case plants many times. Started following you a year ago. Your videos on tiling were particularly insightful on water quality. I live in a rural area but have never really been able to see the machinery at work. Now I'm hooked. Larson Farms Sonne Farms, Farming Fixin Fabricating, Harmless Farmer, Petersen Farms, a variety of Homestead/Hobby farmers. What I love is the multiple skill sets all of you have. It takes a lifetime to learn and you keep learning, a little more than what Bloomberg can teach in ten minutes. I applaud your hard work and the America ingenuity you and all the farmers employ. God Bless you all.
“You’re naughty!!” 😂😂😂😂
Mornin Jim seems like it would be good on a T-Shirt.
I really enjoyed your post. I’m 72 now and have a breathing disability but I grew up on a farm in north central Ky. We lived off the farm and that takes a lot of different kinds of crops. Our only money crop was tobacco or backer in my day lol. I tell everyone that I grew up on a 120 acre farm where the ground was so poor it took a quart of whiskey to just a raise a ruckus. I didn’t farm after marriage and children although I did raise tobacco for a lot of years. I retired from Ky. State Police long time ago it seems now. Enjoying my little great grandchildren now with the youngest born Easter Sunday, one day old at the time of this post and haven’t held him yet. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching you. All the best luck to you and your family.
Daughter went to St. Bonifacius Crown college and graduated two years ago (before Covid ) and am thankful she connected with a job two years ago. Lots of uncles and aunts were farming with
IH 300 and 460 with PSteering. Enjoy your thoughts and determination. I was into printing for 50 years and now do woodworking. Stay safe
Hopefully the moons tire leaves, more sun comes, everyone is ok, and the thunder will get more use
This is, by far, my favorite channel on UA-cam. Keep doing what your doing Zach and Crew!
I can’t stop watching your videos, my dad can’t stop watching it either and he does not like UA-cam, and being Sugar cane Farmers we have learned a lot from ur channel so thanks a lot!
I wasn’t watching you a year ago but today you’re over 773K subscribers. I love your videos, you have a great family and I hope you made the 500K last year. If you answer this I probably won’t see it, I used to get notifications if anyone commented to me but I must have hit a button and I don’t get that anymore.
How big is it? That’s what she said
Evan Gaming she said who you gonna please with that? My answer “Me”
"I'm not complaining........It's just farmin'!"
Loved watching tractor and planter. Thanks for taking the time to explain everything.
Thank you for your work to feed the world! With blessings of God from Norway, where we have half our population, the rest is mostly in the old Montana Territory. It's simply amazing to watch your fields over there, going into the horizon. I talked with my grandfather born in 1926 yesterday and he talked about rowing across the fjord against the wind, to get some hay from another farm, in order to have enough for his fathers animals. They were on a farm with an about 45 degree slope, I'd like to see your fancy machines doing that. In my family they mostly had to plow by spade.
I’ve been known to dig things out from under the seat that expired the summer before. Cab boredom is a real struggle. Not enough of a struggle that I want to go back 30 years to a tractor with an umbrella, mind you.
Almost spat my coffee at: “man, that guys really taking a nap”
Just another farmers day. Thank you all . It is amazing how many rocks, horse shoes or what else you are still picking up after all these years .
Trying to do my part, I got u 5 new subscribers since yesterday. Everyone needs to get out there and spread the word. Keep doing the good work
Get out of basic training to tons of new videos from my favorite farmer! I was a sod farmer before I was a soldier so it brings back a bunch of good memories on the tractor and the farm. Keep on farming!
Thank you for your service!!
@@MillennialFarmer Thank you for your content and your crop!
I swear, every time he opens or does anything relating with that Thunder fuel pump/trailer thing I quietly say “Thunder” to myself 😂
We hear it everywhere we go!
You’re definitely not the only one hahaha
You are a great Equipment Demonstrator. You are very skilled and credible. Every farmer feels he has done a super human job while everything could have/should have been easier. I understand the need for even more tech than you covered here to control cost and insure quality control as well as test and compare products and methods. We are experiencing a tremendous learning curve and education process. I hope John Deere keeps you showing us how these beautiful machines justify their immense cost by helping us make more money in ag. Thanks, Joe F.
Subscribed! Hope you reach your 500K goal. I'm not a farmer and don't know how this video got into my feed but I'm really glad it did. God bless you and your family and all of the farmers in our great nation.
Night farmin podcast. Favorite has to be “Time Suck” with Dan Cummins
Skip everything just to watch this video :)
Love off the husk because of the down to earth talk. Not scripted at all. No sensory. Just real talk and you guys bullshittin for an hour. I love it.
I'm not a farmer. I happened onto your videos because they were a suggestion from UA-cam. I really enjoyed watching your video about planting, I cannot wait to see your videos come harvest. I am especially interested in your yields of corn, non-gmo v gmo. I hope your season is good and you have excellent yields of corn. I subscribed and added all videos to my feed. Thank you for opening my eyes to the trials of being a farmer. I continue to hope that no farmer loses their land to a big agribusiness. The heart of this nation is the family farm and has been for hundreds of years. And I hope it will be for hundreds more.
After I watch "Harmless Farmer" I can do anything and no complain here any more!!!! #keepondigging
You know your a well liked man when you have 10000 views in 17 minutes
Hey guys,
Just wanted to say, in response to you thanking the viewers, thank you and your family for doing this channel and the podcast. At the end of my day I look forward to listening to the podcast or watching the channel while playing farm simulator. You guys take care, thank you again and keep it coming!
Thanks for giving Andy a shout out and your generosity.
Your soil looks beautiful! Harvest is going to be SICK!
We are blessed with very good soil here!
Long day here too...the comment, “he is really taking a nap!” made me laugh out loud. The kids got scared it was so loud. Good stuff man! Thank you! When shit just doesn’t go right all day, you’ve gotta keep it lite to survive.
🤣🤣🤣 thank you!
Thanks for pointing out Andy for him. He's one of my fav's!
That is awesome news, hopefully you can make the goal. Thank you for all you do.
"I can feel it, hes gonna throw a code at me"
When the machine is fully automated and you gotta use your gut feelings for something else
Big shout out to John Deere for matching donation.
Genius Deere engineers! No tools to pull all of the belt mechanism off. Freaking genius!!! Can they design cars?? I have to take off my front tire to change a headlight!
I took your suggestion and looked up the "harmless farmer". Whew. He's the man. As luck would have it, the first video in the line was "the day it happened". If you can make it through the first couple of minutes, it's a great story. Wow.
You and he are going to be two of my favorite people/channels. Thanks.
No complaints or aches and pains.
Bob
Best podcast i would recommend for the quiet hours is: We"re Alive. It is possible the best podcast if ever listened to, give it ago.
What’s it about?
@@MR.MUFFIIN how were alive
@@peadercunningham283 like history of humankind? Or stories of people’s survival?
@@MR.MUFFIIN everything and anything rly
Great planting season so far in Canada. Haven’t gotten into the field yet
Thank You , When you were loading seed by bag , that reminded me of one year my dad seeded 900 acres with bags and the old 10 ft John Deere. Now you can do 500? acres on one fill . Thank you for showing the new Deere in action
Carl I am not a farmer not by a long shot but I am in awe of what farmers do a lot of hard work,when I heard Mike Bloomberg say anybody can be a farmer and the comment he made,well it pissed me off.I loved this channel keep up the great work you do FARMERS ARE AWESOME
"Who wants to tell what I should have done differently?!" You never stopped to check on that raccoon! Poor fella prolly had a few too many last night and just needed a lift home. Bad karma for the day!
“I’m not even gonna ask him” 😂🤣
Thank you John Deere for the equipment. Cool to see the new stuff.
Another great video Zac thanks for sharing. We just started planting in Ontario as well and it is nice to see that all farmers with all colors of machines have silly problems as well. Good luck with the rest of planting.
Are we just gunna ignore the fact that their was standing corn from last fall when miss MFer brought you food
Off The Husk is by far my favorite podcast! But I like the Dale Jr Download too
That's a good one if you love old nascar stuff!
I'm glad you are in a brand new tractor, I enjoy this show !!!!! We love to eat because you work and plant !!!
Life of a farmer. New gear had not been field tested enough! You are completing that task. Good job! Least you got done before the rain that day
Perhaps green falcon? Green star? Or something like john.
"Hardcore History" by Dan Carlin. Long episodes about cool history
i wish other people would make long podcast's like that. I like listening to the when trucking
@@juassie me to
Wow 9 mph seeding?
I worked on a farm in my teenage years here in Ireland and I tell you I'd love to work on you're farm today! Love the videos keep it up🇮🇪🇺🇸👍
Love watching your videos! Just put out a Facebook post to help you get to your goal of 500,000 subscribers. Lots of farmers in my family and on my friends list. Best of luck!
