I love watching the cows graze, so peaceful and fulfilling. One day I will have a regenerative farm of my own to grow food for myself, my family and my community; what a great way to live. Greg, you're an inspiration.

I've said it before but Greg is the best and wisest environmentalist there is. He puts every tree hugger, green peacer, and activists to shame with his genuine passion for the land and enthusiasm to maintain it. If half the farmers in the world were like Greg we would have no environmental issues.

You can actually see the streaks left in the mud from the worms going across! Amazing !

My kind of Rancher!!!..From a 70 yr old Rancher in Wichita,Ks...we think alike..good job...nice video...

Beautiful, thank you for that. We moved to 80 acres in Texas from Southern California a couple years ago and got ourselves a couple of angus and already had two beautiful calves. We’re definitely fish out of water but it’s the happiest I’ve ever been. We’re figuring it out as we go, luckily we have some really helpful neighbors and a patient AG office but I do appreciate your videos as well!

20 minutes of a man appreciating the earth and loving life! i loved this video

Awesome we are about to start our homesteading and regenerative farming venture in Australia 🌏 learn so much from your videos .. Thanks

My god, these images are the why people just endure all the hardships of life in the country, green healthy grass, fat healthy stock with the beautiful and the good mood of newly born calf, all sprinkled with a healthy vibrand fauna doing it's job and just making everything even better for everyone. No drought, no major stresses, just blooming life.

Nothing like the sound of a happy, contented farmer to brighten your day.

Greg!!! Wow! Your land looks spectacular! Thanks for sharing and demonstrating how to heal the planet 🌎👍❣️

Your pure joy in the abundance of nature is quite infectious - and all the critters, cows, swallows, turkeys and even the worms are glad for you!! You are an inspiration to me on my little 12 acre plot of land, improving it every year. Thank you so much.

Nice to see its still done the old fashion way. The right way. Makes for Great Ribeye!!

Greg, I have a large turkey population here...the absolutely hammer the cow manure looking for the bugs...it is amazing!!

Watching this fills you with calm and happiness. I hope to bring your ideas to Croatia.

I am glad everything is working so well for your herd.

I made and put up 40 cedar tree swallows birdhouse last weekend in TN. I put them on cedar 2 x4 connected to my fence post. I already have many birds and love watching them. Thanks for the advice and the cows thank you for the help with flies.

Congrats on a great gobbler harvest!! Sounds like a beauty. Gonna have to go watch the hunt!! Thanks for posting it. Love your content.

WOW thats beautiful Greg! Your videos make my heart and mind happy 😊

Congratulations on the turkey!!! Thanks for sharing the grazing tips! Keep em moving

Subscribed and hooked. Greg is one of the only channels I watch at 1x speed.. for pure relaxation and knowledge. Inspiring.

the condition of your cattle is unreal coming out of winter, very good and informative video. thanks for posting!

Sweet poetry 😭 Thank you!!

Beautiful farm , happy cattle and pasture looks incredible!

I ran a few cows in south Texas 50 years ago. I loved to watch the cows peacefully graze, but it was a lot of work keeping cows. Thanks Greg for letting me watch yours without me doing a lick of work.

Beautiful capture, always a pleasure listening to you!

Wow, beautiful pastures, it's so fertile! AWESOME! Your cattle looks firm & healthy!

Congratulations on your Successful Hunt. That Calf with White Face and Chest in beginning of Vlog was such a Beautiful little thing. It's Mom was calling it as soon she got in field. Nice to hear Calves and Cows calling each other. Beautiful looking pasture. Your saving the earth one day at a time. Love what your doing. The Tree Swallows are everywhere also a Beautiful Sight. Stay Safe God Bless and Peace Be With You All ☮️🙏❣️

Great looking cattle. Your pastures look great too

Beautiful place,thats my dream place. Thanks.

Beautiful farm! thanks for sharing! I used to live in central Georgia. In miami, Florida now.

Nice relaxing view of green lush country!

Great pasture Greg. 👍

Just wonderful. How it should be world over. Great video.

Wow what a beautiful land you have.

Beautiful cows on a beautiful field.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us! FYI, concrete cracks. That is what it does. Both rebar and fiber work well (do not use metal fiber if rebar is also used). To let concrete cure better, cover with plastic and wait 3 or 4 weeks before uncovering and using. But it will still eventually crack, guaranteed.

beautiful day and nature. Worth living life to see such days and breath that air into your lungs

We used to call the big horseflies B52 bombers, too when riding our horses. My horse would look or shift his hips to let me know one was on him. He knew I would whack that thing. :) Cattle and pasture look great. We have similar grasses going to seed and wondered what to do. We have one pasture munched enough to stop the seeds and another is well underway. (We have small acreage and dairy goat herd). Thanks for all you do, again!!

the little calves are so cute!!!

Hi from New Zealand Greg. The cows are in wonderful condition having just come out of the winter! Stand by for an ovulating cow storm!! We are looking to run a "seed head control" grazing round on a dairy farm this coming spring. Given the likely protein component of the grass and clover sward the cows behinds are looking relatively clean. An alternative to the chloride treatment for algy is copper wire. Electrical wiring can be stripped and the copper bunched up in a ball and put in the trough. Two advantages are that there is no possibility of chloride causing rumen bacteria damage and any copper that goes into solution via electrolysis is beneficial to the cattle. All the best; Steve Clark

This is how everyone should be living.

It sure I’ll ever be able to have my own farm but thinking more and more I want to do this as my day job. It think it probably pays very little for a lot of funny hours and hard work but I think spending my time making sure the cows are happy would be the nicest way to live day to day. The little ones are so cute and the adults are so calming to watch. I can’t think of a better way to spend the day.

As Greg was talking about shallows, I did not see one cow swish its tail.

You have nice green grass and we still have snow in the low spots. A late spring here. I usually have my cows grazing my quack grass cover crop(volunteer) by now 😉

i love your farm it is very much beautiful because it is full of green area

the green just soothes my eyes

Thanks for the tip on the Hypochlorite and how many I need for the size of my tank. My water tank is always a magnet for algae growth and dumping and cleaning it every week wastes a lot of water. I am looking forward to trying this!

We poured a 26X40 pad for our shop with rebar...it's cracking too Greg...my concrete guy told me one thing is for sure...it's gonna crack eventually

Reminds me of one of those, taking care of lawn videos.

Your worms flourishing in the middle of acreage was something I didn't expect to see. Good soil there!

I am so happy to have a barn swallow nesting in my barn! Flies were terrible last year, I hope they make a dent in them this year.

Wow!!! I had no idea tree swallows ate that many flies! That makes so much sense though we have tons of tree swallows here and very low fly numbers. The previous owners put in a lot of birdhouses and hedges.

GREG,, almost looks like you could use some more of those beautiful cows, those cows and calves are just happy beautiful,,, i havent seen worms do that since the early 80s, now you,d be hard pressed to find a worm anywheres,, be strong, be safe, and be blessed

Great advice! 👑👑

Beautiful cattle

This video is so inspiring. Thanks for showing what happens to a pond if not cared for. If I am looking for property, how does a person know if the pond is in good shape? Smell? Vegetation?

@17:40 In my former days of working as a bricklayer and Mason helper, we never tried to get more than eight linear feet in any direction with concrete here in Chicago land. We would purposely put in a break and fill it with the hard felt material to allow for summertime expansion and winter time contraction in an attempt to avoid cracks in unwanted areas.

not a problem we have here in the southwest 81* at 9 o'clock at night and no rain for a week or so

Beautiful: the land, trees, grass, and especially the worms. Please consider a trigger that will place x amount of fresh water in the tank when a cow trips it. And another trigger that will empty the tank every y period of time so you don't have stale water and dont need to chemicall clean the water.

Very helpful Thanks for sharing the advice. Hope you get more rain. Perhaps more came after George n I left for home

Greg, All concrete cracks when it dries. That is why a tooled joint an inch deep will control cracking where you what it to be.

Happy environment, content animals. Love the swallows, ours suffered badly from the climate change weather and many did not make it back from Africa (UK)

Amazing!

Wow Beautiful.

G’day Greg love your videos but for us new farmers can you show us more of the basic things like how you go about tagging new calf’s in a big herd cheers Trent

what a beautiful sight! love seeing those tree swallows.... glad to hear you got a turkey- wish we would have "been there" with you on video.... at least we got to hunt "together" one day....

Greg, Sorry, I must have missed it, So what do you do when grass grows faster than you can graze it? Thank you so much for sharing your love with us. Your The Man!!!

I mow my pasture once in june using a large mulching lawnmower. My 1.8 acres of pasture isn't overwhelming because it's divided into 4 paddocks, which I mow in sequence.

Greg, I sure love to see the way you appreciate God's creation. The way you were enjoying those beautiful worms. They really were some beauty's huh.

Hey Greg! We just had SNOW the other day... you are about 3 weeks ahead of us... rock on my friend!

Thanks Greg. Real enjoyable video especially with my first cup of coffee. Love seeing those cows and those baby calves. You never did really answer what you do if the grass grows quicker then you can graze??

i wish I had that problem! I need grass to come in faster!

Congrats on the turkey!

I see the Tree Swallows doing their thing !!

I wish I had such problem

wow great

Pretty cows.

I don't know the math on the use of expansion joints with concrete, a possibility. Also, a lot of people don't keep the slab wet long enough for hydration to take place. Concrete doesn't dry, it cures, a chemical reaction with water that causes it to set, which is why concrete can burn you while it is going through hydration.

Can you please inform about this grass, that which grass this is and from where you belong, which climate suits it. How we can grow it? From where we can get its seed? Is it lasts for whole year? In which season , the growth slows etc...

Try putting some Ag lime in the water tanks for the algae About 1 pound for a tank that size Cows look happy out there

A 30 pound gobbler!! Whoa!! 🙌

they are making big feast

Bet the pasture soils are excellent.

I had to revisit this video Greg. I completely failed at seed head control. You cannot clip a lot of it because of terrain and I moved the cows fairly quick but they could not keep up. I do think I need a few more cows but not much. I am healing this farm after years of abuse (amazing what one season of practicing rotating does!). My thoughts are, while it may not be “optimal “, having mature grass and seed heads is better than bare soil. The cows may whine a little bit about it come mid to late summer but I will tell them they can go to the neighbors around here and eat dirt with their cows if they like. Or the hay they are feeding in mid summer. Also, the cattle will trample some of the mature grass and you get free seed. I feel doing this for a few years will really help heal the land. People probably look at my farm right now and think I got rid of my cows because it doesn’t even look like it has been grazed all year. But in my opinion, I’d rather have mature grass and covered soil in mid-last summer then bare dirt and feeding hay.

WoooW so beautiful Hi from #iraq 😂

We have been leaving more grass, giving longer rest & building our soil armor! #naturalgramma RevHank & Laura Reid

mashaAllah /good /nice

Greg, I've never heard you talk about dung beetles, nor have I seen any when you've spread out the patties on the videos. Do you have them? Do tree swallows eat them or just flying insects? Thank you so much for showing us a gentler way to farm that's saving the planet at the same time.

Damn... i want to have the field like that, i can grow any type of animals on there😂🤝

What are your thoughts on bats for mosquito control, especially now?

From what I have read and been told and seen here on YT if you want them to graze the area out completely then you have to make it smaller. Then they eat everything.

I just read some articles last night on getting some money from The National Audubon Society if your ranch meets criteria for being bird friendly. Right now there is only a few ranches in Missouri meeting the requirements and getting that special label for their meat. And only one Missouri business retails that meat to the public.

I dream to be like you mate

Hey Greg, if you had the equipment available, would you hay some of this growth instead of speeding up your rotation? We are able to use hay equipment in exchange for labor, but I wasn't sure if there were any down-sides to haying I wasn't thinking of. I know we will most likely have to supplement fertilizer but we wouldn't have to buy hay for the winter so that seems like it could balance out. Thank you for the videos!!

Wish we got rain more often here.

Would Purple Martins be as effective? My dad and I have had for years and they are fun to watch and are heavy insect eaters.

What do you do with the grass they dont graze?do you top it with the topper? If you graze tight does it not improve the quality of the regrowth next rotation?

Greg, I struggle with what you touched on at the beginning regarding keeping the animals on a paddock to get it grazed down--they end up overgrazing the more desirable species. If you let them graze the best and get them moving faster, isn't this selecting for less desirable species to be left in the stand to grow? I suppose the best answer is adaptive grazing...higher stocking rates in spring and then ship them off in summer, but I ain't there yet and it seems few have mastered that.

looks like cow heaven to me..........

I have 6 acres of orchard grass, brome, rye, and red and white clover. I planted it last year and it’s really taken off and is very lush and knee high. I’m getting 6 sheep in a couple of weeks but they won’t really put a dent in our 6 acres, they’ll probably handle one acre I’m guessing. Do I need to mow the other 5 or can I just leave it alone? I want to add a couple of cows next year, but I’m not ready for it yet.
