This video is incredible. Truly. I've watched the videos for years. This one is the absolute best. Nothing special, no gimmicks. A father teaching the next generation with immense patience and pride. This video, in my opinion, is something that should be viewed by everyone and be stowed away so that it is saved. This video, albeit short relative to a lifetime of teaching, shows how your food is made and how the traditions and knowledge is passed on. This is one of the most incredible videos I've ever watched. Thank you Johnson family for all that you do.

Not gonna lie I cried during this video because it brought back so many memories of my grandfather teaching me to drive a tractor at 7 years old in the fields. I dumped my first load of hay at 9 off of a flatbed truck he had mounted blocks to the gas and break pedals so I could reach them. Thank you for bringing those memories flooding back to me today! So many life lessons for me at that age farming a small farm in Georgia … I just recently bought that land back from the bank during a foreclosure! This might be your greatest video ever! Thank you

I was a troubled teen into drugs, street racing, and burglary. My parents sent me to help one of my dad's friends on his 600 acre cattle, pork, and grain farm in Alabama. I spent a growing season there. It turned me around pronto. I learned what it was to be a good person, what a work ethic was, and how rewarding struggle and hard work can actually be. Onyx is a respectable young man off to a great start.

My father died when I was 4 so I pretty much had to rely on my neighbors to teach me everything Zach is teaching Onyx. I have since passed those things along to my son when he was very young and who is 33 and has a family of his own. Something that did come to mind was the family across the road from us who basically treated me like one of their own. They were like parents to me. The wife was buried last week and the husband about a year ago. Watching this reminds me of the neighbor that taught me to me teaching my son.

I was 12-13 years old when i got to drive a combine for the first time. It was a John Deere no less! neighbors field was farmed by one of the bigger operation farms in the area. My family being farmers, we were familiar with the bigger farm so i got to run out to the combines and hitch a ride with one of the operators. Neil Hesacker, a retired gentlemen who was super fun to hang out with, let me drive the combine after giving me a run down on the controls on the fly. Next truck load we emptied at he swapped seats with me and i got to drive a big Deere for the day! Probably one of the happiest moments in my life. I kept riding with Neil and the combine crew as they worked around the local fields for three summers, Ma baked fresh zucchini bread muffins for the crew and i got to keep driving combine. Kept it up for three summers whenever they rolled around. Farm equipment make some of the fondest memories.

You guys did a video about how a combine works...this was back in 2017 and Onyx was helping you talk through everything. That's how I found your channel. Seeing him running the thing now, pretty darned cool.

Great stuff! I’m sure you’ve done this, but teach the “what to do when things go really wrong” too. “What do you do if you see smoke or flames?” That kind of thing. Super impressed with Onyx’s steady hand and calm demeanor under Dad’s tutelage. Too many kids (and some adults) would be saying “I know” all the time even though they don’t know. I always ask “what do you know” when someone says “I know”.

I spent several summers as a teenager in the 1960’s working for an uncle who raised dry land winter wheat in eastern Montana. During harvest, I drove truck, hauling grain either to the elevator in town or to bins at the farm. Keeping up with the combine especially when yields were high was always a challenge but I loved every minute of it. While I went away to college and ultimately worked in the city, the lessons I learned during those summers have served me well,..never got to run the combine though. Great videos! They bring back good memories.

It’s nice for you to teach him to drive a combine at a young age, I became an operator when I was 12 and I drove a John Deere 9600. Love your videos and good luck mate
