That was awesome. Thanks for your hard work and for helping feed America. Without farmers, we would all starve, and I personally appreciate the entire team at Bells Farming. You guys do a fantastic job and care about the product you put on the table. If I could buy your potatoes in Florida, I absolutely would.
They say find a job you love & you will never work a day in your life!!! Looks like you've done that Molly, by the big smile on your face!! Thanks for taking us along!
“Gee, I spent last night watching people till a field and it was fascinating!,” said no one ever - until your channel!🤗 I love this channel, but still cannot tell you all of the reasons why. 🤫 Great job!
I’d like to offer Shane and Molly a gift for their next romantic dinner out, or a lunch for the entire team-it’s their choice! This is just a small way to thank them for their dedication and hard work, which truly stands out. America thrives because of families like theirs, and I’m grateful for their contributions.
I am blown away! ❤ thank you so much!! This really means a lot to us! And thank you for your comment too! We will use that for a special occasion! One thing I have learned from doing this farm channel is that there are so many kind, awesome and supportive people out there LIKE YOURSELF . I recognize your screen name and thank you for following along with us for a while. 💚😊🚜❤️ thank you again!
@@BellsFarming , I see you guys have been busy. Keep up the excellent work! Sorry, I'm behind your videos; I've been busy as well, but I will get caught up soon!
😂 I thought I missed seed cutting 😂 I didn't think I did. I'm looking forward to seeing that. Great video, as always. I am learning a lot about farming. Thanks.
Hello Molly this was a great day for you and Shane to be able to start working on the land and the start of a new cropping season I grew up on a very large farm in western Canada. The first tillage was the start of a new season and lots of fun to come along with it You look very happy out there with your tractor 🚜 and don’t forget to fuel your tractor and grease it after every day so you are ready for the next one Take care and enjoy the season
Love the sound of the Deere engines when they are working. That plow is a heavy load to pull. Your happiness is contagious, we all smile when you are happy..😀
Thank you Molly and Shane that was fantastic 👏 I like how you both explain what your doing and why it's being done,,you guy's/gals drive the best vehicle's 🚜,, I was laughing at Shane telling you to get back to work 🤣😂😅 he's only joking of course 😄 Thank you,from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤
@@BellsFarming I love it when I see the notification that you've uploaded a new video 🤗 it's a joy and fascinating to watching you,Shane and crew at work,my parents use to run a farm and I've worked on several farms to here in the UK 🇬🇧 😃💓
I was thinking about how clean your soil is until you hit a rock. It is still amazing to me that you can break it up 2 feet deep. It is not like that here in the west deserts. Thanks for the education. I'm glad you got your rocks off the field.
Excellent video guys. Thank you for the explanation Shane. U look so content in that tractor Molly. I am glad that the weather is cooperating. Well down here, we had frost last night. Be careful and thank you for sharing this life you live.❤
That ripper is a real test of your tractor. Good to see you guys doing this. It is so important as Shane outlined the path of moisture in the field and how that helps the crop. Guess we will be hearing your playlist because of the long hours out there. Great camera work as usual.
It was great to see the depth gauge of what you needed to go to Shaun l never thought it would be that amount, great work Molly a much better idea now of what it takes but each year can be different as well thanks for explaining it and taking us with you. 👍
Hey Molly, another fun video, those teeth are huge, we’re really enjoying learning about your operation, love seeing you in the tractor, and it’s always extra to hear from Shane:) thanks for sharing, can’t wait for seed cutting, that set up looks cool! Keep it up, loving your channel ! From PNW😊
Thank you so much for the support! Shane is starting to warm up a little more! I have two cameras now, so I’m hoping that he will carry one himself this summer! 💚💛
It is great to see that you use good science and engineering to keep the fields useable over the years. Of course being Maine, the first and biggest crop each year is rocks. Left there by the glaciers when they receded. It is easy to see why a lot if farmers back when moved west where there are not all those rocks.
This was really interesting. I have often wondered what the various implements you see beside farms on country roads are for. Thanks for explaining how it works.
That was a large rock for a older worked field isn’t it? Great to see Molly so excited for the driving season to start. Love to see a bikini version Molly!😊🌞🤗
Thanks for the on the job training and explanation of how growing spuds starts. Looking forward with interest to your seeding explanations. Interesting stuff Molly!
Great to see Molly’s enthusiasm for tractor work. The soil seems to be an alluvial loam with the right balance of sand, silt and clay to make it susceptible to compaction. I think some of the compaction is caused by the potato digger that pushes the soil below down, while it’s damp. The digger probably has a continuous chain that, as well as lifting the spuds, presses the soil behind it. Where I come from most commercial potatoes are grown under centre pivot on ancient sand dunes, where there is little compaction and washing is reduced.
Until this video, I would never have believed watching Molly or anyone else get so excited about driving her Deere around a field could be so....."interesting". Thank you for that.
Really awesome! I wondered if you may have to run down the same row more than once to get your ripping depth right when starting the ripping process? Then rock removal, and tillage over the top of all of it. It's a fascinating process to watch. I really appreciate this video and look forward to see the season progress. Thank you for sharing, I hope you're having a great day 😊🚜🌞👍👍
I have never seen a ripper to loosen up the soil, I'm noticing you are not double hoeing like you would do with a wheel harrow very interesting thanks for sharing.
Molly, love to watch your content. I used to harrow in the spring with a 656 Farmall, when you get bogged down time to pick them up or you will get buried. You’re doing a great job your rows look fine.
Little tire spinning occasionally, your right though that thing will just suck the tractor down when it’s to wet. So far I have not gotten stuck this year! 🤞🏻
As a proponent of no till, and cover crops, farming biologically not chemically, I also subscribe to the idea of “context.” Potato production at scale is tricky. You seem to have a system that minimizes the negative impact on soil health, and still produce a vital product to feed the world. I respect that a lot.
Thank you! We are always working towards better farming practices. We went many many years without a ripper deep enough, so we are trying to make sure we get all the fields taken care of. We always use cover crops when we can!
Very interesting presentation. I knew lots more about potato farming then I ever knew before. There's a whole lot more than throwing a spud into the ground and digging it up at harvest. There's a whole lot of work to produce spuds like any other farming crop. Looking forward to your seed video.
There’s nothing like the smell of freshly plowed dirt…. Looks like you’re off to another great season… And you looked fantastic up in your John Deere!!!!!😊
Nice video. "Now get back to work!" LMAO!!! Go Shane ... Anyway, thanks for the video. As always, I really like the watching you guys on the farm. It's always interesting to see how it all works. City boys like me never get to see the rural side of life. Thanks!
you get better every time youget in that tractor what an asset to the farm you go girl love watchin ya work kiddo ya learn and teach more every day keep it up please how long till you start planting
Thank you very much! We will start planting potatoes tomorrow actually! I missed the first seed cutting because I was in the tractor all day. I will make sure I film the next cutting day
Love that this first field is the one you guys were just shooting at!! Shane! Stop turning away bro! You got it!!! Believe it or not! A+ bro!!! 👍🏻 Moll??? Great shooting!!! You're doing really good here. Sound is good, vid is good, timeline is good...Thinkings about expanding the vid experience for your viewership. Tap into that!!! U have come so far in a very short time! A+!!! 👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎
Awesome! Thank you! I was wondering if anyone would notice the targets in the field! I am going to try and get more videos out now that we are doing more stuff. If the editing didn’t take so long, I would have a few videos a week! Thank you very much for the kind words and encouragement!! 💚😊
My wife worked for Bell Farms in Mars Hill from 1976 till 1985 , Owners Alfred,Gary,Patty, Brian and Breen Bell back then. She worked on the harvester and on the baker head, hanging 5 and 10 pound poly bags, some time loading trucks with 50 lb. masters. The Bells were Ma Cains star growers for fries
That’s cool! We visited that farm when we went to the county! What great people. They are not related, but good hard working people just like us! Thank you for sharing 😁
Great job Molly. I do have a lingering question about how you got into this farming business. You mention things like this is my second year doing this, etc, but it looks like you (and Shane) have been doing this for ages!? Maybe a quick storytime video of how you got into this industry (unless there is a video i missed) and how you got from the beginning to now?
I think that’s a great idea. I can do a little story while I’m working in the tractor. O have a few videos to make but when I shoot the next tractor day I’ll talk about it :)
Observation from a farmer who has ran deere's the last forty five years, the 30 series and I mean older like 4430 through the 60 series like 4960 the tilt on the steering wheel was built well. Starting on the 8000 series the tilt has a lot more plastic and is pretty janky;) tilt them up and down gently and they last...slam them down and they get sloppy loose rather quickly;) Lots of tater's raised under water over here in west central Minn for the fry market.
Good job out there..we could never use anything like that around here..way to many stones! We have to rely on crops to break up compaction..like vine crops or alfalfa which has deep roots almost 6ft in depth...I'm jealous of your ground!! But a great job with that..
We call them V rippers out here in Nebraska. Run into some of the same compaction on potatoes though they're raised on sandy soils. You guys wouldn't even farm it!
"If you don't go deep enough, you might as well not do it." Truer words of wisdom were never spoken...
Engravable 💯
I’m telling you Shane has some good ones. He doesn’t speak often, but when he does it’s usually wisdom or freaking funny
Are you talking about field work or something else!!🤣🤣🤣
That was awesome. Thanks for your hard work and for helping feed America. Without farmers, we would all starve, and I personally appreciate the entire team at Bells Farming. You guys do a fantastic job and care about the product you put on the table. If I could buy your potatoes in Florida, I absolutely would.

Good golly Miss Molly! You sure look like you're having fun. The tractor looks good with the new hood. Nice looking pokies ❤
Oh I am having fun! I love tractor work
Awesome 🚜! Cuts thru that soil like butter.
Very satisfying!
This was very informative. I never thought about the hard pan that develops below the top section that gets loosened each year.

Starting on the 8000 series the tilt has a lot more plastic and is pretty janky;) tilt them up and down gently and they last...slam them down and they get sloppy loose rather quickly;) Lots of tater's raised under water over here in west central Minn for the fry market.
Ha! Thank you for the tip! I will be more gentle on my steering wheel!
