    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.

    Once he got going with it he was fine.
    Switching your new planter over to beans was not bad. You had a good day planting beans.
    Now switch back to corn. And away you go again.

    Sorry that they left the gate open. I have to deal with a contractor that they cut the right a way for the power company.

    Zach ur lucky to work beside both ur awesome father and ur great son. I know it’s not always the easiest but be blessed seriously. Y’all are just an inspiration family overall. Thanks for all the videos Zach. I’m not a farmer nor do I know anything about farm production but love ur channel. Think it’s something that kids need to be taught where our food comes from and how it gets from the beginning of its life till it reaches our stomachs.

    When I was your age I had severe leg cramps, they were so bad they even tear my muscle. Try drinking a lot of water and tonic water. Worked for me.
