This is Iowa: Iowa farmer becomes YouTube 'Cornstar'

A fourth-generation farmer started rolling on his life and now has a YouTube following that's bigger than the entire state.

This news story generated more views than any other thanks to Cole's fans.

I'm a 60+ year old New Yorker, Cole the Cornstar is one of the best channels on YouTube.

I'd be willing to bet most of the views and likes on this video are from us seeing the TV crew on Cole's video.

I was waiting for the “I didn’t think they would ever leave !!”

At a time when a lot of people are being horrible to each other, this family is a breath of fresh air. They work hard, love each other, are open and honest, and all around bedrock solid humans. I love to visit with all of them every day--it makes all the nasty disappear, and they remind me that there's a lot of good out there.

As a fellow Iowa Farmer, YouTuber and hope to be friend, congrats Cole! Keep it up!

One of the best on you tube. I'm not a farmer nor have I ever been. I'm a 64 year old lady. He puts on a good show.

Nice news report, KCCI! You showed what us Cornstar fans love about this hardworking family with no sensationalism and without making up controversy where there is none. Quite refreshing. 🌽 ⭐️

This channel has helped my family get through the pandemic... so grateful for their Godly example, diligence, and positive (mostly hilarious) look on life!

KCCI: A breath of fresh air. This well done and accurate piece of journalism has restored my faith in 'commercial broadcasting'. Kudos to you! Hopefully, all CBS affiliates can learn from you. Truth matters. Integrity matters. Iowa is blessed to have 'The Cornstars' & it seems also KCCI. . .

Hey i seen you guys on Cole the Cornstar's channel LOL

[ceciliafuentes]

We love that family. We are in Virginia, and have never been in a farm, but Cole and his family are honestly educating American and the world how expensive and hard it is to farm. It is our joy of the day to watch them.

I'm from Iowa, lived on a farm as a child. I love Cole and Daddy Cornstar! It's great to see someone actually show people what farming is all about and they make it fun to watch. Win-win!

I'm from Canberra, Australia, and I've been watching Cole and his fabulous family for over a year, every video. It's 10 minutes of sense & sanity & familial affection that I treasure.
