Can you run a Farm with just ONE Draft Horse??

Today Ken is helping Jim & Brenda show many of the things that one draft horse can do around the farm! Many people may think that you can only run a farm if you have a team of horses, but there are many jobs that just one horse can do!

Watch our videos to learn about draft horses- horse logging, horses farming, and horse training! Jim uses Belgian, Percheron, and Suffolk horses to do work on the farm and in the woods. He teaches about harnesses, horse-drawn logging and farming equipment, horse feeding and maintenance, and voice commands for horses. New videos uploaded every week. Keep watching to see how Jim trains his new Suffolk Punch colts as he has trained his full-grown teams!

Thank you Jim and Brenda. I think that a horse should never live alone. If they have a friend even a goat chicken or donkey It will make their life better.

Hey there Jim and Brenda, I hope you're all well and good!

Jim my friend, you are a blessed man, Brenda truly is your "help meet" she works hard at just about everything.
She reminds me of my mother when I was a boy growing up on the farm, and her always helping dad do whatever it was he was doing.

I hope y'all have a good one! 🐎👍🇺🇸

Brenda is getting a pretty good workout chasing Jim and Ken around the field. 😀

I'm going to say the slab wood is hickory. When the video first began, I thought Jim was working with someone else's horse. Ken looked so brown instead of black. I thought maybe a neighbor asked Jim to help work their horse. Ken looks brown in his belly area. Is that just because new hair is coming in as the winter coat sheds and will darken later on? I hope the new ditch will help that area stay drier. I sure do remember you hitching up all 4 horses to move that huge boulder last summer. That was amazing. Ken loved his corn cob treat Brenda! I agree, he earned it today!🥰

[daleevans]

Great video. Thank you. I'm glad that Ken gets a little bit of extra spoiling. He so deserves a treat. Ken is such a beautiful horse. He's quite a sweetheart.

I absolutely love hearing Jim speak his “Jim horse” language to the horses. 😀

Just found your channel.My grandfather used draft horses on the family farm in indiana .He gave demonstrations at fairs with his horses .He raised and trained dutch heavy draft horses . I wish i had learned all he knew, he did teach me how to ride he got me a quarter horse that was mine when i was on the farm .I have very good memories!

[lesliehamilton]

I love that you are working with horses. I have always wanted to learn to drive and work horses! I ride and have trained a few but never for driving! Absolutely love your videos. Makes me believe that I could do it too. Thank you both and may God bless your fields and yourself!!

[clairestaffieri]

Both of you are so, so cool ! I LOVE your videos. I get instant happiness when I see you have uploaded another of your adventures. Blessings to you.

[jillpickup]

Thank you both for taking us along with you today xx

Brenda, you need to get Jim to author a book using his vast knowledge and experience with regard to the horses. Very informative and entertaining.

[benrogers]

I saw the pin still in the drawbar but I hollered to late. 😂 The look on Jim’s face was priceless. 🦞

[brendahogue]

Love your videos and enjoy watching them every time they come on. Enjoy seeing the horses work

[chrislittlefarm]

What a proud and gentle horse Ken is. Really enjoyed watching him work! One has to be very patient when teaching a horse to pull, otherwise they might refuse one day - even more strong draft horse breeds. Ponies sometimes tend to exaggerate by themselves 😀 and then they also have enough power to become hardly controllable then..

[michaelwhiteoldtimer]

Nice to see you guys working to make the farm a better place

[joycehennequin]

Good evening Jim and Brenda, Brenda before you said it l was thinking how Well our gorgeous Ken worked on his own and he really looks the part.... l did think if he was going to squeeze into the shafts, he's a big boy and incredibly know l keep saying it 😁 Jim you had a very cheeky almost wicked smile on your face when Brend was astride that water looking at worms 🪱 lol ....but you new Brenda 😆 Looking forward to the next video, l have driven several times but only the one horse and l loved it, picking up 2 to 4 people at a time on the carriage to have a wonderful ride into the was a summer job. Wishing you all the very best 🌱🌱🌱💕
