All Around the Farm
Hilarie and I are all around the farm today. Doing morning chores (with a new discovery!), moving the laying hens to a new pasture, checking on the cattle, looking at how our fly control measures are doing, and taking stock of our grazing and hay situation.

Pete Congratulation on the your replying to one person it was priceless. When you start off a channel, it's not to make money at least not to many. You create friends and content that people love and enjoy to see!! You bring joy to our day just by seeing your new videos full of thing that many people would love to experience but never will. Pete, Both of you have a great day!!!

Thanks! And there are thousands of super, great, kind people who watch the channel. I meet some of them every weekend at the farmers market. The ne'er-do-wells always get too much attention, while it is the first group who really should be getting all the attention. I am so thankful for all those people.

My dad grew up on a small dairy farm in central Michigan. His grandfather always kept muscovey ducks around, more for fun than prophet. When I farmed with my dad on our 100 cow dairy farm, he continued the tradition. The fly population went down drastically when we introduced ducks to the farm. Nothing fancy, just free range ducks. I always got a kick out of watching them too. Thanks for another great video, keep up the good work.
Good morning Pete and family, you do one helluva job on your videos and explaining farm life. Thank you so much for what you and your family does. Great diversion and inspiration from everyday crap LOL. When those chicken's come out it's like the bar at closing time!!

Everything looks so nice and green. First thing I noticed. Feels good.
Thanks Pete for all you do for your KZread community. I truly enjoy your channel and personally appreciate all your you do and go through.
One of if not my favorite channel, thanks Pete!
Best channel on You Tube. I love old fashion farming.Pete and Hillary you are AMAZING PEOPLE.
❤️ your channel Pete !! I would love to have a 12 month calendar of farm animals and tractors and especially a picture of the parts tractor in snow. Thank you so much for your informative videos and farm life.
Your farm looks so beautiful and peaceful this morning thank you for sharing.
Absolutely love your channel. Feel the need to watch everyone of your videos.
Just a Few Acres Farm coffee mug NOT MADE IN CHINA, with the rooster/sun logo would be a great way to have coffee in the morning, Pete!
Hey Pete and hiliary! It’s great to see you expanding into new merch territory. I’m wishing you success in your new endeavor. I look forward to new videos and updates.
Definitely Baseball Hats with that Design, and tee shirts too!
Thank you, Pete for sharing your monring!
Aww the new baby calf is adorable. your videos always cheer me up. Thanks Pete
coffee mugs would be good merch. of course with clever sayings.
Once again was great to see my Boise State T-shirt displayed on your Atlas-like body. Of course, I am 70 years old and my eyesight might not be as good as it once was. Love seeing the piggers. Hope you have a great day. Ray in Boise

Your farm your way. What works for you don’t work for someone else. If you did or changed it wouldn’t be your way anymore. I think you started the farm because you love it and you needed peace in your life and every one wants to change you. Just be you Pete. I know the feeling when you feel like your being pulled in 50 different directions. Not a happy life
I just want to say thank you to Pete and Hillary for taking the time to share their life with the rest of us.
Another master piece 🧩🧩🧩🧩❤️👏🙏🏿
God bless you and your family sir, watching this from Europe and i really love your videos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, beautiful united family life 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing.🐂🐂
Just wanted to say, I love your Chanel! Your sense of humor, and your humane treatment of the animals brightens my day.
Love the morning shots Pete!
Running commentary: Chicken "trailer" always makes me laugh, ingenious! Always save receipts--TS. Tawny calf--beauty! Liking your "fly science experiment"; following closely. AND Titus, such a buddy. 😍 Final: Hay math. Critical and 🤑! TY.
Hi Hilary and Pete. Yes, beef is what’s for dinner. I’m carnivore, and eat only animals and butter and some goat cheese. So nutritious, easy, and easily digestible.
I love how Titus greets you every time! He's a good bull
I love all the animals. I love how the cows always want a scratch. I have to say the piglets hiding like nothing is there and THEN here they all come. I always laugh. Merchandise I would like an apron.
308 k , I'm absolutely proud of you guys for showing support for Pete and Hillary . This channel is such a wholesome channel .
Oh yes, I do miss Salt Potatoes. Before moving to Phoenix, AZ I lived in Syracuse for 37 yrs. I also miss Hofmann snappys and hot dogs. Oh well, I live through folks like you who still live in that neck of the woods. I enjoy your videos Pete.

Salt taters! Please folks, ya gotta say it right ;) My first taste was in a bar in Syracuse freshman year. They were swimming in butter and plenty salty- I'm sure the saltiness helped sell more beer. I can taste them now just thinking of it.
Can't wait for your merchandise. Some t-shirts and hoodies up to 5x would be good. Love the channel.
JAFA,,,PETE, regarding hay,,you certainly sure about the weather, this year we had 1 week, where it got up to 105, few days, NEVER GOT BELOW 85 AT NIGHT, Few prople died, no rain although promised ,,just drizzled,,then cooled off but up again 104*F, days getting shorter, drought, water restrictions, , oh well so it goes, God Bless you all, 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
You were correct, that was one beautiful summer morning. My favorite time of the day. Everyone is looking good and content, have a great day.
Thanks Pete
Love your content, great work
You should make a nutritious soup out of the flies to enjoy with your family along with some pork bbq. New England clam chowder move over!! a new soups in town!
You and Hillarie are such an amazing team. Love the video, Pete!
Very nice to watch yet again...
I enjoy seeing you with the animals and how they relate to you. It is a joy to see you and Heidi work together and share smiles of love towards each other. What a refreshing show from the daily news we receive daily
Awesome video. Really enjoy watching u go through the day on your farm. Inspiring.....
Finally a good college shirt, graduated from there years ago, when people ask where did you go to college my response is BSU always good for a laugh
It is too bad that people just don't understand! Since I am not a farmer I certainly wouldn't tell you how to do it. But I have learned lots from you just for my normal old yard! Love your videos!!
Love the video Pete keep up the great work
Pete, I'm so grateful for you, Hilarie and your channel. I love learning about your farm, the animals and your farm practices. You remind me of my best friend who passed in 2006; It's comforting to watch you be yourself. Don't ever give up the Dad jokes. :)
Another great presentation for us to watch, thanks so much for taking us along with you on the farm.
Hi peteeeeee loving the farmalls 😉😉😉😉😉😄😄😄😄✅✅✅✅✅👋👋👋👋👋👍👍👍😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey Pete. Some people don't understand you been doing this for a long time and grew up with it. Some people who have farming channels don't know that much and they kinda need a push now and again. I will for one stay on and keep watching until I kick the bucket down the road. Sadly Dr only given me 2 years so you better hang in there with me! I been with you for a very long time. Think you were at 10k viewers or something and always loved what you bring. You always bring light to my life and I love your videos. Don't change.
You make backing up the wagon look so easy. 4 wheeled wagons are no joke! Lol
That Hilary is just so cute! I’d like to see more of her on videos, if she wants……
Regarding merchandise: I’d love to buy your Chicken and Sun logo as a sign or print for the wall.
Thank You
I've got to say, I do really appreciate the good humour you take all the "suggestions" in. I hate to imagine what having a continuous verdict of every detail uploaded is like. I also appreciate your humouring my guilty pleasure of watching the fly control progress too. I don't know why it's so fascinating, but it is. Along with everything else of course.
Good morning Pete
You guys always make me smile and make my day a little brighter.
Liking the idea of folks screaming over that untrimmed bush and at that tin can tipping over into the bucket. Plus, the fly-trap enterprise sure is entertaining even now! Great video
Great Video. Thanks. Every night, when I pop into KZread....I am delighted to see a new clip. All the best.
Hi Pete and Hillary, hope you’ll are having a great day. Quite the the day of working in the field. Pete, just wanted to tell you that when you were in the pasture and talking to the camera 📷, the cows 🐮 behind you were studying you. Almost seemed like they could understand what you were saying. So funny 😂. Love ❤️ the fly 🪰 catching routine. I got to believe that your fly catching helps to reduce the amount of flys. Back to my important tasks, bye ✋ for now.
Pete, when you say the key to backing up a four wheeled wagon is to look at the relationship of the tractor drawbar to the wagon drawbar, do you mean you want to keep them in line and use the wagon’s articulation to steer it? Growing up on the farm I could never do it!
I so enjoy you video's. Thank you
It is incredible how much you learn about sustainability and the environment by watching this great channel. Climate change must be a very big challenge for farms today. Planet Earth, forgive our foolishness
Excellent video Pete :) & Hilary :) also 9 calves nice amount cows to & my dad & uncle like doing 1/4 acres each of Alpha also Clover depends on ground were use and rest was broomn Grass on all 3 farms too ! Beef cow love it plus calves too and did move Feeder twice years for outside adults cows too once in Spring Season after winter season and just before Winter Season Weather sets in and wood type plus got repaired up to ! Calves had own feeder in pole against wall but elbow 45 angle separated from adults till got up 700 pounds then be outside or inside barn were adults ones too! Also Pete for Metal water feeders floats tell one thing be to useful when screw garden hose use Black Rubber O rings so won't leak change in Fall and next time Spring Seasons to because do wear out and leak bad like fountain of Youth Lol!
People does Pete look like he needs your advice?!? Nooooo!!!!! Hey Pete, thank you so much for going over what makes up the pasture. It never fails, anytime I have a question you always answer it in the next video or soon after. I get a kick out of seeing you fix everything on the farm. I still can't get over how you break down equipment, say the name of the parts and what they do and then put the equipment back together. You are one smart man.
Hi Pete, Your videos are a ray of sunshine, in a crazy world, I love watching them and listening to the cows "complaining " again and again, Its good to see Hilary in the videos too.. Thanks for sharing your farm life with us ,, God bless you both..
Cute babies!
Clover has deep roots as well as alfalfa. Wonder if everyone in your neighbourhood put in the effort of fly control would make a bigger difference. Hay and firewood has lots in common. You can’t have too much stored ahead. Better to have more than to worry all winter about not having enough.

Nice vid, Pete. It's always a pleasure to see you and your fine wife, Hilarie hard at work making a good living for those critters you're caring for.
I sure do like your videos, and for the record.... your jokes are so bad that there funny!!! Love it Pete, 😀
Pete your videos are entertaining and educational. I find sometimes opinion are like armpits, almost everyone has em and sometimes they stink. Can't wait to get a FAF hat.
My 4 year when I turned this on the tv goes, “daddy come on you already watched Pete today” lol!
Thanks for the video
Always enjoy watching the videos. The experiments, ideas, and true farm fixes are great. I tried just fly bottles and garlic salt but didn't see a big change in fly load on the cows, even though I caught a lot of them in the bottles. The only thing that works for me to reduce the overall load, (yes a hot button issue) is diluting my fly oiler with water and spraying on the cows backs once a week. The only fly's this does not deter is the Horse fly's. I can spray it on them directly and they don't budge. Oh and keep up the dad jokes!
Always a pleasure! I like how the pasture has come back. I don't in a place where I can have fram animals now, but I always enjoyed working with them.

The new baby is toooooooo cute. Love all the farm news. Enjoyed the video. Free advice cheap and plentiful. Lol I have none to give As I see it, none is needed. ❤️
I would most certainly buy merchandise from you shirts hats and definitely coffee mugs.
The merchandise question got my attention because no one ever carries anything that I can wear to the office. I don't think there's enough demand, but I'd be interested in a polo/golf shirt or half sleeve dress shirt or camp shirt (had to google to figure out what they were called) with a small logo on it. I know, I'm dreaming, but its fun to dream!

Ahhhhhhhh, end of the day, here in Maine. I am settled in, and relaxing as I watch your video. Your farm is my "go to happy place" when I have had a busy day.....or, actually, any day! Your interaction with your animals just makes me smile. And, the fact that you and Hilary enjoy what you are doing...well, I admire that. Have a great rest of the week, and see you soon. Bev in Maine
I always enjoy watching you interact with the animals. Love watching you and Hillary. Sandy
