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.

You need to seal the concrete. I used to work on a warehouse and the dust was terrible. I used to put a cheap concrete sealer in the floor about every 6 months did help. The company found a place that will come in and prep the floor then put sealer on it. I left 4 years after that and never had any more problems. Check for concrete finishers in your area they may be able to help

The book bindery I worked at for 10 years had this type of machine to clean the floors. When I first started working there, they had a guy with a large push broom to clean the floors; which put a lot of dust in the air. But once the company invested in this type of machine, the work place became much less dusty. You will appreciate how much less dust will float back onto everything in your shop.

Zach, the front end of that scrubber has wings on it that are folded in. They need to be unfolded. You are not scrubbing an area as wide as the squeegee / vacuum, therefore you are scaping up dry dirt on the tips of the squeegee as seen in the video. Plus, it is going to take you longer as you are not scrubbing as wide an area as you can. Thanks for all the cool videos. Jeff

So we had a floor scrubber like that at a shop I worked at and it was an absolute must have. When a tech had to lay down on the concrete floor and then jump back into a customers vehicle you don’t want to have a dirty floor for them to transfer that dirt and grease into a nice vehicle.

Those are sink holes and need to be addressed sooner than later… or sure what you have for everyday weight going over those pipes. But that can really lead to bad day. This comes from a guy who work for the New Hampshire Department of Transportation. And by just looking at the placement of the holes. If left alone you could lose a truck or tractor. And content or not that’s not a good day. Safety wise that’s is. Keep it up Zach and everyone on the farm love the content

I’m a dirt guy and I had the same issue in my shop and one thing that helped is putting down crushed asphalt in front of the shop so the tires and tracks kinda of clean out. Put it down, water (maybe a little red dye fuel) and compact it. It’ll help with cleaning your tires and tracks out tracking less crap in on the floor, therefor slowing down the dust in the shop.

When summer comes, you might consider doing an epoxy coating on your shop floor. It’s used in a ton of garages and your local contractor can determine what you need for the abuse you give that floor. Your floor will still get filthy (it’s a farm, it’s unavoidable) but it might be easier to clean and maintain it.

I have a solution to the dirt in the shop issue. Just add about 4 inches of asphalt to the yard and your driveway. Also, I feel your pain with the dust on the shop floor. I can sweep my floor with the best broom out there but when I lay on the floor to change oil or something my back still gets covered with dust. That little scrubber thing looks like the answer. And one other thing: The culvert you were looking at is most likely a segmented concrete culvert. This means the entire culvert under the road is made up of probably 6 foot segments joined together. These culverts last forever but they have a tendency to get separations in the joints. Frost and the loading/unloading of the road make everything move and the segments move apart. That's when you start to see the voids on the shoulder and ditch since it seems like the end segments like to move the most. Whoever owns the road will have to dig up the culvert, reset the segments (and they could pin them together) and then backfill and regrade the road. That looks like a fairly shallow pipe so it wouldn't take much time to fix the problem.
