The cleanliness of the barns is impressive, these are hard working people, caught somewhere between modern times and the 19th century. Respect their way of life.

I live the way the Amish live i have met so many down to earth nice amish they are hard workers and beliefs in things are amazing great people for sure

This dude has no trouble falling asleep

Not gonna lie, these are some really nice looking cows

Sweet baby Jesus, the amount of work and heart these guys put in is impressive. Growing up in upstate New York. It was the saddest thing watching all these dairy farmers go out of business.

Nice to see horses and a mule working on the maize silage.😊

I used to be Amish and enjoy watching the Amish life style and I grew up in Lancaster county. But I would not go back but it is cool 😊

All respect to the Amish.

Thank the farmers for the nice video.

Much respect!!

thanks for sharing this video i always enjoyed watching the amish work. i also live in lancaster county

Used to have a 718 harvester on the farm when I was a kid. Never got that many tons per hour out of it. That was some impressive chopping for a little old 718. Never thought I would see one with a kernel processor either.

another good video thanks

Ohio Amish country here .... really enjoyed this video 👍

Thank you for another special sharing. There are many nuances shown.

Lots of work. Long days. Thx! Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉

I like that guy,he worked hard

I am from NY. I used to pick up milk in Lancaster county. Organic. It would take us 20 plus hours to drive to PA, pick the milk, then drive back to NY. Thank God there were no serious accidents in the 5 years we did this. I LOVE the Amish. We have Lancaster Amish here in the Mohawk Valley. Plus many other types of Amish. All Great neighbors

Nice watch🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍😎

As a UK beef farmer,,this is fascinating to watch,👍💯👍

Beautiful video enjoyed it very much

Awesome video. I admire and can relate to farmer. Throughly enjoyed this video. My hat is off to this great man.

So much has changed since I worked on Ben & Sadie Glick (now Sam Glick) farm in Bart, Pa in the 80’s/90’s.

Really nice healthy looking cows.. I watch some farm channels and not used to seeing dairy cattle in such good condition.

I loved the video!

It takes some serious skills to be a farmer.

I used the bucket and step saver in the 80s on my uncles farm. Pipelines were not installed yet.

Bon travail merci bon journée

you work very hard and you harvest the labor of your works,keep up the good work and perseverance! And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.

I grew up washing and putting milkers together just like those , I don’t think I’d remember how to do it anymore. We pushed all the feed through with a wheel barrow and pitched silage out of the silo by hand . We only had around thirty or so cows . I miss those days sometimes.

Very nice video. Forked a lot of silage out of the silo growing up.

Thise are some hard working people

Thanks for sharing. Makes me so home sick for the years I worked on a dairy farm. I really enjoy seeing how the amish do their farming. Congratulations on the new baby. I remember getting up at 4:30am and helping to milk cows and do ther things around the farm before I would go to school then come home and head straight back for the 4:30pm start of milking and other things. Then summers all day working morning till night.

We were 5 generations of dairy farmers here in Washington State .You have some very nice cows there . At one time we milked in a flat barn also , then in a double 10 parlor . Now we grow fresh market sweet corn selling mostly direct to the public . Kallstrom Sweet Corn , Ephrata , Wa.

I wonder if the alarm I heard by the mixer was to let him know he had enough silage down.

Brings back memories of the late 80”S in enterprise Alabama on the dairy farm that milk taste so good and so sweet

I would love to sit in on the meetings where they decide which technology to adapt and which to forgo.

God bless

Well that keeps you young

did anyone notice the motor cart wheels twitching??? there are foot pedals that help to steer the cart.....If i am correct?? Some cows and horses keep themselves clean.....not all though

Oh by the way , about 20 years ago I flew to Lancaster County and bought a John Deere 5830 chopper from a Amish guy that had bought it in Germany and my son and I ate at an all you could eat place there , great food .

Very interesting and well done video. Must have been a long day making and editing this video too,

Nice video. I got a kick out of the serial plate for the LEBANON SILAGE PROCESSOR Manufactured by LEBANON AG SERVICES "ON" CANADA. Maybe it should say "IN?" That was a great video shot.

Small korgies are so funny at its work)

Amazing Godly 💪 work! 😊

That little self propelled feed cart is really cool and handy.

Very interesting. Looks exhausting.😮

I lived on a dairy farm when I was younger just me and my dad and my mom before my other brothers came along. I remember getting up with my dad getting everything all prepped up feeding the cows then we let the cows out and Grace all day long while we clean the barn and get everything all prepped up take them out to to the city to be processed. It was an every day job seven days a week twice a day you might come in the morning night it’s just an ongoing process you always knew what you had to do every day of the week. But at the same token, it was the best life. I think every kid should know how this whole process takes place and work on a plan for at least two years of their life.

That is a great video my friend! That’s basically the same way my grandfather milked his heard. He had about the same number. I went out with him at 4:30 in the morning a lot of times. This brings back great memories! Good job narrating.

I used to use milking machine’s just like them

I would eat that! It looks fantastic.

The dairy farm next to my parents house fifty years ago used to milk in the byre ( cow barn) but that went direct to a bulk tank even then. But your video brings back happy memories of all the manual labour involved. I am from Scotland UK 🇬🇧 😊

Nice❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You Farmers work so hard to feed us. Thank you Question, do the Dairy cows spend most of their productive life chained up or do they get the rome a bit?

I used to live to milk everyone’s cows! I’m in Ohio. Your cows look like good producers! I loved to feed the calves. I did a lot of colostrum feeding . You save it all , keep it cool and in the end of it it’s like buttermilk. The calves love it. But you want to have a calf pellet to feed right away. Oh for the love of farming! Loved it ! Now I’m too old ha. I now work for a case farm , hatching egg farm. At this time we collect 9,450 53:08 53:08 53:08 53:08 53:08 Eggs per barn. Three barns.

My brother works at a computer, but eats like an Amish farmer…..👩‍🌾 mingah!

There was a reason I always washed the milkers and line before milking bacteria will set in them inflations and hoses so you wash with extremely hot was ad just a small amount of Clorox if you do t have chlorine in the south a high bacteria count can get you in a world of trouble

Here in Wisconsin at least in Clark County the amish or at least what we call the old order amish usually don't have electricity on there premises. They don't use tractors. But do use stationery engines. I believe they use electric lights in there barns powered by gasoline or diesel generators from what I heard. They cook with wood or kerosene. Even though some amish will use bulk tanks for milk. Most still use cans. Some don't even sell there milk comically they just process it & consum it themselves. They mostly use horse & buggys. there are modern people who will drive them around. If they need to go longer distances. Some of them will saw wood for the public for extra $$. But we do havea a Mennonite population here in Wisconsin too. There are different factions of them they all seem to use electricity of the power grid. There are some that drive smaller tractors instead of car/trucks. Some that ride bikes & use horse & buggys. But farm with tractors on steel wheel & there are some Mennonites that drive cars/trucks use smartphones internet even social media! This farm looks to me the more like a Mennonite farm then amish since they don't use tractors here in Wisconsin. They dont use silo unloaders or mixers at least not the old order amish. I'm sure modern Mennonite use all that stuff. The amish are still pretty crude around here. The way this farmer feed his cows is pretty much the way my stepfather fed his dairy cows. But he didn't have a mixer. He milked his cow with a pipeline system & had 4 automatic takeoff milking units he milked around 45 cows when he retired from dairy farming in the spring of 2022. He wasn't a amish or Mennonite.

23:40 If they have Tractors, why not use them for this type of work? I used to live not far from this area and would travel thru Lancaster Co to Lancaster proper to visit all the outlet stores they have there and would see sights such as this regularly. Back then, before solar was so readily used, when you went thru this area after dark you were very lucky to see any lights at all. Maybe one gas light in a barn here and there but for the most part it was pitch dark. I remember someone telling me that many Amish in this area would have a phone installed in the outhouse. They would run adds for work and it would say you have to call between certain hours, like must call between 3p and 4p M-F because that's when someone would be there to answer the calls to line up work for them. Lots and LOTS of little shops that sold Amish products all over that area. If you are ever in that area it's worth the trip to check it out.

Most dairy farmers in my area put their cows out to pasture between milkings.

I'm exhausted.

I run a 16 aside hearing bone dairy with 567 milkers, 86 heifers in calf with about a dozen on the ground.. I appreciate this type of milking an how far the industry has come, Wether its armish lifestyle or modern life style. I appreciated watching this alot.

When i was a teenager in cold Wis we had to pitch silage down all the time. That was many years ago but it made no difference that i was a girl.I wish we had had all these modern machinery back then. We still have the old order Amish were i grew up in Shawano Wis and they do everything the old way. Well most everything. We did tour a chicken farm and the eggs were washed automatically, but still not like a modern non Amish egg laying place.

Well done. Might want to have that cough checked out.

Interesting

So cool ,thanks for that ! Im a dairy farmer here in new Zealand, my family hav been milking cows for 120years

Gas lamps in a barn?? And pouring milk in the open but no barn flies around? I enjoyed the video, very interesting

so much for the old ways

I wonder how they keep records on each caw? It would be important to know everything about each cow.

The wheels on the tractor actually are more modern then pneumatic.

This doesn’t seem anymore Amish than a small dairy in the Midwest. Lights, feed cart, tractor, fans…what’s Amish about it?

I was wondering is this the same Amish dairy that burned down Thanksgiving day? And I feel like I'm missing a lot because you don't have the caption printing available did you ever say how many cows this man milks? Skip, Western PA

These guys live in same area as me. We run a beef farm

hello I am French I have been following you recently I am introducing my children to your work they are happy to see you

Do you allow your cows to go outside?

great people

Do you have a store locals could purchase goods from you? I am local and would like to support.

GREAT JOB

How many horsepower is the motor on that forecart?

👍👍👍👍👍

These people have more work ethic in their pinky finger than I do in my whole body. I so envy this lifestyle and wish the entire country would have to go back to this type of living and be done with corporations.

Please tell me the cows are not chained up 24/7

It's interesting that this Amish farm uses more modern technology than the "English" farm I grew up on in NEPA (30‐40 years ago). This must be a necessary compromise to stay in business these days. I'm guessing that's why this farm is still operational and there's very few of the smaller dairy farms left in NEPA.

I milked cows 19 years. He's got more modern equipment than I had

👍👍👍👍

I would love to find a job working with the Amish

it's not Lan-caster county it's Lanc-aster counter

These Amish are either New Order or Mennonite Amish. Here in Michigan we have mostly New Order Amish. The Difference is the Gasoline Tractors, The Skid Steer etc.

What do you do with your calves?

👍👍😉😘😎

What I don't understand is how come he doesn't have a silo unloader when he uses tractors and other equipment with electrical technology

Why do some machines have rubber tires and some steel

Someone needs to see doc with that cough

This is a lot of electricity and modern machinery in use for Lancaster Amish. Very unexpected.

The Amish we have around here don't have electricity or tractors.

Can the Amish use a pipeline for milking ?

Why are they chained to the stall

The open milk container behind the backside of cows. OMG. Hope none of that milk is sold commercially to humans. 😬😬😬

His cough is comcerning

Why are they not milking by hand .
