Thank God there are still people teaching their kids the value of hard work and teamwork. Brings back a lot of memories for me as well, but in today’s world, I am thankful to see the kids and parents working together to accomplish a common good goal.
Brings back memories as a teenager. Come home from school and taking the Ford tractor out to the fields and picking up the wagons, unload in a shed just like shown here.
love the old john Deere picking corn that was the good farming days wish I could have seen the old Deeres back in the days I'm too young for the good old tractors in the fields everyday
Un hermoso video del 730... recuerdos de la infancia donde mis primos aprendían a manejar en ese tractor y con mi hermano aprendiamos en el Fiat 780. Dos caballitos de batalla que alguna hacían crecer a la Argentina... saludos y gracias
You have a lot of very nice old equipment. It's a so simple and efficient and works well. I remember that fresh picked ear corn has a unique smell. Ain't norhin' like it. I think it's fine how you all work together. Beautiful!
This is easily the best video I’ve seen on CZcams. All the old Deeres working and the corn harvesting equipment I’ve never seen before up here🇨🇦,and the kids having a ball. I’m still smiling and will probably watch it a few more times tonight,thank you
Thanks for sharing these videos! Grandpa had the same elevator, mounted picker and pull-behind. I spent many a chilly hour riding in wagons leveling loads. I greatly enjoyed going back in my mind to a much simplier time.
As a kid who grew up in Chicago, and moved to rural S.W. Lower Michigan in the early 60's as a teenager, I remember the corn fields around me being picked liked this. Next the farmer got a tractor mounted machine like in the opening video. He used Allis Chalmers tractors and Ideal pickers. Later in the 70's he got a 4 row Gleaner picker/sheller. Those old farming practices led to hunting Pheasants, rabbits and deer in the picked fields. Today farming yields no birds, orrabbits, but lots of deer.
Opening shot of the family coming out of the wagon was a surprise! Whatever that miniature tractor with a wagon is....is a child’s dream come true. I had the chance for a free corn crib like yours if I would remove it.....sure wish I could have. Nice video showing the process of picking corn. Reminded me of the book by Mrs. Hobbs, corny corn picker.
Im a international Harvester man but its neat to watch this and see the equipment work just like it was back in the day. Keep putting out the good videos buddy.
Good video!! I've had all that equipment in the past so it was fun to watch. The only thing I didn't see was lifting the hopper and scooping the spilled corn after getting done unloading.
Y'all are bringing back some very fond memories as when I was a kid helping my grand dad. I hope those young kids learn from this method of farming. I know many will disagree with the old traditional way but, soil was still saved, farm ground wasn't "compacted" like that of today and for harvesting, granted not nearly as high yields then as of today but, very little loss back then compared to what combines do today. I'll still take this old equipment over that of today's "junk". This IS farming and this IS what it's all about. I really hope you keep this going in your family. Great video, cheers :)
Brought back a lot of memories. We had a Farmall 450 on lp with an IH234 mounted picker. My brothers still farm only now they run 2500 acres but the 450 is still around although it doesn’t get used much. We had a John Deere elevator much like yours and had a couple a wooden wagon boxes and one metal one like yours. “Electric” might have been the brand? Picked a lot of ear corn and shelled corn into “Knight” wagons. When I was in high school in the mid 70s we got a New Idea pull type. Eventually lengthened out the elevator and picked into Kilbros 350 wagons. We could pick corn twice as fast as the old mounted picker. Ran the pull type picker with a 966 that had a cab in the late 70s, early 80s. Thought we were really living large.
I remember my dad picking corn and filling the corn crib when I was a kid. I don’t know of anyone that still picks corn in my area. My siblings and I used to have corn fights in our corn crib. We did a lot of dangerous things on the farm back then. Most of the time I was the only one that got hurt.
Love this video. Brings back many great memories. We picked two to three thousand bushel a year in my younger days. In what area of the country are you guys located?
Is a corn crib used for pigs ..not knowing what they are used for we are all a couple generations off the farm now ,my mom grew up on a farm back in the 40s
Corn cribs are for storing the corn when it is still on the ear. They were mostly used back before they had combines that would separate the corn off the cob. Not many ppl use them anymore. Thanks for watching!
We usually harvest late this is just a hobby for us and we feed like 5 or 6 cows with it and grind up the ears to feed them. We don't sell any corn usually. Thanks for watching
after years of seeing how much corn some of these combines leave on the ground I wonder why more people don't pick the corn. when we grew and picked corn we didnt leave any grain in the field. I'll bet some of these combines are leaving 4 or 5 bushels to the acre on the ground
@@daveklein2826 the fields I see look like they were drilled with grass with a plant every 2 or 3 square inches and the stuff is sometimes knee high by the hard freeze And we are talking use of mechanical pickers not by hand.

Brings back so many good memories of when farming was farming and not commercial food growing.
Good times...thanks for video

Now that is what I call a family farm operation. You don’t see that much anymore
You have a lot of very nice old equipment. It's a so simple and efficient and works well. I remember that fresh picked ear corn has a unique smell. Ain't norhin' like it. I think it's fine how you all work together. Beautiful!
Nothing smelling fresh plowed or disced ground it one of my favorite smells
This is easily the best video I’ve seen on CZcams. All the old Deeres working and the corn harvesting equipment I’ve never seen before up here🇨🇦,and the kids having a ball. I’m still smiling and will probably watch it a few more times tonight,thank you
Thank you so much!
awesome to see a full family operation in action. Thanks!!!!!!!

Thanks for watching!
Good to see the kids jumping in & helping out. Nice collection of Ol' Deeres. Enjoyed watching them in the field with the ear pickers. Take care.

Great video! Love seeing the kids out helping and enjoying farm life like I remember living it in the 50's and early 60's, best memories ever.
That brings about old times in my life

Brings back memories, my brother and our cousins always rode in the wagons !!!!
This brings back a lot of really good memories. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks for watching!
Love your videos I remember picking corn like this when I was a kid love seeing the kids riding in the wagon

I grew up on a farm and now live in the city. I truly envy you guys. Great video!
Nice family fun and awesome old iron
Чудесные дети!

Thanks!
Enjoyed the video. Looked like everyone enjoyed their day .
Been there and done that
Only we had a jd-40 single row tag behind picker
Those kids will never forget riding in the wagon
Your Saint Bernard is beautiful!!! We had a Saint Bernard at home on the farm too when I was growing up.
you could see the kids were having fun
This was fantastic! Really enjoyed watching. Beautiful corn crib!
That is one of the best looking cribs I’ve seen, it’s beautiful.
Mooi werk
Love that crib. Been thinking about trying to build one just like it.
Awesome video. Old iron is the best.
Good video!! I've had all that equipment in the past so it was fun to watch. The only thing I didn't see was lifting the hopper and scooping the spilled corn after getting done unloading.
Nice family time 😎😇

"Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸
Brings back memories. We had our "A" with a JD #5 mounted picker on it. The "A" was converted to propane, It is still out in the shed.
Awesome 👍
Memories 60 years ago riding in a flat wagon kicking the corn down. Dad had Ford's and a New Idea one row. His buddy a 900 with mounted picker.

Old school cool 😎
Love this
LOVE IT
love it
I remember shelling corn as a kid ,all the barn cats would show up to get the mice and rats ! My job was to knock down the ears .
Was gonna ask for a job but looks like you have plenty of help!
I remember my dad picking corn and filling the corn crib when I was a kid. I don’t know of anyone that still picks corn in my area. My siblings and I used to have corn fights in our corn crib. We did a lot of dangerous things on the farm back then. Most of the time I was the only one that got hurt.
Very good...
enjoyde this.this is how i used to do it.larry
Corn is in the House ;)
Remember those days wow. Riding in the elevator was discouraged.
Haha
молодцы крута все при деле и все под присмотром класс
John Deere was born in Vermont for those who didn’t know.
Love this video. Brings back many great memories. We picked two to three thousand bushel a year in my younger days.
In what area of the country are you guys located?
Northern IL. Thanks for watching!
I enjoyed watching your corn picking video. Thanks for showing. Can I ask, do you have livestock to feed all this corn to?
Yes a few steers
Is a corn crib used for pigs ..not knowing what they are used for we are all a couple generations off the farm now ,my mom grew up on a farm back in the 40s
Corn cribs are for storing the corn when it is still on the ear. They were mostly used back before they had combines that would separate the corn off the cob. Not many ppl use them anymore. Thanks for watching!
You must loose a big percentage of corn doing it this way or do you harvest early
We usually harvest late this is just a hobby for us and we feed like 5 or 6 cows with it and grind up the ears to feed them. We don't sell any corn usually. Thanks for watching
after years of seeing how much corn some of these combines leave on the ground I wonder why more people don't pick the corn.
when we grew and picked corn we didnt leave any grain in the field.
I'll bet some of these combines are leaving 4 or 5 bushels to the acre on the ground
With modern equipment its more like 1-2 bushels. with large farms hand picking would be prohibitive
@@daveklein2826 the fields I see look like they were drilled with grass with a plant every 2 or 3 square inches and the stuff is sometimes knee high by the hard freeze
And we are talking use of mechanical pickers not by hand.
I did know those were for haullng children?
how the machine filter the corn ?
Вы так сушите кукурузу или храните?
Why not show inside crib while filling. That would be interesting
I have more video from inside the crib yes and I will load it in a few days!
do you grind your own feed or take it to the feed mill
We have a hammermill grinder yes
Lets go Brandon f j k
I wish google would quit with the woke adds!
