Spring orchard farming isn't always smooth. Our herbicide spray trucks get stuck in the mud again and again while applying orchard herbicides in our Michigan apple and cherry orchards, turning a simple field operation into a recovery mission. Watch as we battle muddy conditions, farm equipment challenges, and unpredictable spring weather during this real day on the farm.
From orchard management and weed control to tractor recovery and specialty crop farming, this is the reality of farming in Northern Michigan. If you enjoy farm equipment videos, agriculture, apple farming, cherry farming, tractors, and behind-the-scenes farm life content, you're in the right place.
