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.

So nice to see that Jim is part of the cast again.
-
I came across your videos on YouTube and my hat off to all of you for the work you do. Your children are very lucky. I was very moved by your work.
-
Don't worry Onyx.. we ALL learned shifting a standard by rounding off the edges of the gears until they were smooth enough to mesh together properly!! 👍
-
Good job Onyx! And good job Dad! My dad stood on the step . Said there’s the clutch , there’s the key , be careful and left !
-
Great job Onyx. Learn as many Life Lessons as you can while you’re young. Ask Jim and your grandfather all the questions you can. It will serve you well.
-
As a truck driver for the last 45 years I still remember the first time. Good job kid 👍👍✌️
-
Kudos to you, Dad, for teaching your son 'how to' on the farm. I began at the age of 10 helping, driving, and often destroying small things, but rather than being yelled at, my father would explain what I did incorrectly and how not to do that again. He was an extremely loving and patient mentor.
-
Watching you teach your son brings back fond memories of my grandpa teaching me to drive. Thank you for being a responsible father!!!!
-
I like when Jim is around. He’s a character, that’s a good thing.
-
Nice to see Onyx being taught how to drive truck by his Dad. It could come in handy down the road. Learning a trade at a young age never hurts. Even if he’s just taking laps around the farm for now. God bless all farmers.
-
I have a heavy equipment company and we used to have a “Jim”. His name was Billy and he was an incredible hand, but also everyone’s friend/dad/grandpa. Having those old boys around is something every company needs. Unfortunately Billy passed away a few years ago and left a big hole in our company. Here’s to hiring older guys to help out!
-
Great to see a young man learning to do the pm's on machinery and not just the driving part. Got to learn how to take care or our machines and they will take care of us.
-
Former farm kid here. My parents figured learning to drive on the farm would be safer then learning blind in Drivers Ed. I knew how to drive before I was 13 years old. Go Onyx go!
-
Onyx my first was a "48" gmc 2 ton. Straight gear no syncro transmission. My grandfather would laugh an say "grind me a pound while ya at it" good times and I miss them.
-
Every time I watch one of your post, I am just amazed of all the mechanics that goes into farming. It amazes me how you keep up on all of it. Very impressed with your son Onyx, works way more than most young men I know and not to mention he is doing school work and if I remember you said he plays on a hockey team.
-
The stuff that he learns at 14 years old he will never forget.
-
I learned on the my mom’s family farm. I used to help out my grandpa and uncle back in the summers and he’d let me drive the old farm trucks around and skid steers,tractors etc. Was a lot of fun and great memories I had with my grandpa. Miss you poppa!
-
Seeing his confidence grow with every shift! Love the lesson a real Dad there
-
I started driving solo at 11, driving the grain cart while my uncle ran the combine. Did it on the go with a JD 80. It really taught me some lifelong lessons.
-
It’s always good to keep an old faithful truck around incase a new one goes down plus onyx can do practice laps on his own and hooking and unhooking trailers around the yard
