My husband was severely injured on the job on 6/24/22 and he worked at his job for 22 years. He stayed in the hospital (8 different ones) and he just passed away from this work accident on 2/28/24. 19 months and 4 days later he passed away. He loved watching you Cole. I am now a widow with 3 teenage boys to take care of alone and I am scared to death as my husband and I did not do estate planning. We just didn’t have anything to offer our kids as they are quite young. Excellent video Cole

Cooper is underrated. Make sure he gets he's props! 😊😊😊

My mother was a gardener for 60 years. Each planting season, she would say, " The stones grew into rocks, and the rocks produced more stones." Those rocks helped build her " rock " garden. Good old days. Just like Cole .

Would love a video of Roman's story. What brought him to the US, what he has gone through to get where he is today. So glad he is here.

So glad to hear that Roman has become a permanent employee. His knowledge and skills are amazing, plus his humor and personality always makes me smile. Also, love it when he speaks Russian.

We’d all be blessed to have a friend like Roman.

Take it from someone who's been through it: when estate planning, have a plan in place for what happens if both dad AND mom go at the same time.

Just can't get enough of your dad and Roman. That's nothing against you and Cooper. It takes a team to make it all work. GOOD LUCK IN 2024 !!!

One piece of advice on the lawsuit. I went through one when I was injured on the job by a 3rd party. Dont say anything to anyone about what is going on etc. Lawyers are sneaky, in my case they filmed me trying to catch me doing things. They followed me at work, they listened to us talking on our CB's when we were in our trucks. They tried to turn some of my friends to testify in their favor. So keep everything to yourself. They actually turned the neighbor right across the street, a young couple, to film me from their house. Whatever they paid them, they sold right before the case was to go to court and moved on. And this is because I saw some of the tape and immediately realized where they had filmed from. So even people you think are safe to talk to or trust...... sometimes the money is too tempting.

Microphone is great. You’re not screaming! LOL

As I sit here in our condo in Beaverton, Oregon watching you all I can't help but say that the stuff you show us is very facinating to learn about. Not many people know what it really takes to run a farm day to day. God bless you all. Glory to God.

I’ll be sure to pay attention as to if you aren’t screaming. So far this video’s volume and lack of screaming has been excellent! Thank you Cole!!!

The planting season is so close. Thank goodness for Daddy Cornstar and Cooper and helpers. It will all work out.

Mic sounds great! No wind.

Your microphone is perfect Cole. You have entertained us for 4 months doing the restoration/renovation. Well, maybe yes, but time does go fast without you realising it. Yes, your family has a lot to juggle and decide on but that is normal for what you have. All the best for all and it will all work out. You are a good, well-adjusted unit as a family.

It's good you are getting clarity and a plan for the future. We were not a big farm but I have 8 siblings. When my dad passed away from a blood clot after a heart attack at 62, we had to do some major rethinking of how things were going to work. My mom decided to sell some equipment and rent out her land to a local farmer. Then she got pancreatic cancer and passed away 7 years after my dad. Most of us were not planning on farming but my dad wanted the farm to go to the only son. Some of my sisters had purchased land from my mom to help her out or have an acre or two on the land we grew up on. So there was a lot of figuring out what was fair and not just equal. It can really be stressful and strain your relationships if you don't have a plan in writing that everyone understands.

Cole, a living trust versus a will. Living trust saved us alot of money when dad passed. It also helped greatly when he needed care. You trust your family, consider a living trust. Not going thru probate allowed me to afford to keep the farm that's been in the family 125 years.

New microphone works great! I don’t hear any background noise. Love your videos. Especially your house renovation.

Roman is such a nice addition to the family business. He is such a great guy and his attitude and work ethic is stunning. Keep that guy close! He will help enable you and your family to do amazing things. I'd like to hear more about his background!

I have to say that I was wondering how the pre planting stuff was going. Looks like u accomplished a goal. Everything is ready. Equipment and seed and liquid nourishment. So, employees at work. The growth is wonderful to see. It has to be really exciting for the CS family. The mic sounds great. Levels r pretty consistent. And it’s been great to see more of DCS. We need his balanced demeanor to remind us that life’s good on the farm.

Think of the corn dryer more like laundry. You wouldn’t want to throw a bunch of wet clothes in a huge pile for months. It would mold and ruin them. Dry the clothes and you can pile them in a closet forever.

Cole, what about Justin he is a great craftsman. He has really come out of his shell. He is funny too! Roman and him make a great team!

Roman is an awesome addition to the channel! Very happy he will be staying for the farming.

Cole you literally have spent years cleaning up the mess left for you and you are turning your house into something that will be there for your children’s children. You are providing that for the future. You have done well and I can’t imagine what you would have accomplished if you would have been able to just work the farm and UKposts. Hope they rule in your favor on the bin site and you can fix that but beyond that TY for inspiring some many kids to reach for their dreams. Keep going kid you are a rockstar in this world and you are the man.

Very little wind noise. And I love your new mic so much. I had begun to believe that you were deaf which caused you to yell. Nice to hear your normal voice. Blessings from Georgia to all of your family who work so hard to bring food to our table. ❤

I think ive been with you from the beginning, or close to it. You were cleaning out the house. I doubt i have missed more than 5-6 episodes and have never skipped any part of the video and have always "liked" every video and occasionally made a comment. Im a 70 yr old retired teacher here in Iowa. I found out one of my close friends is also a regular viewer and we often discuss episodes. Hope the litigation resolves in your favor.

Five generations working the same farm and still in debt every year just to survive. The plight of the American farmer. Looks like Cole is using as much tech as possible to turn it around. Good Job Cole

I love when you let vendors/R&D/salesman the opportunity to explain and advertise their products. So cool.

I hope you have a lawyer actively pushing the case forward. It won't move to or through the court by itself, especially not if the other side has anything to say about it. These non-functional bins are going to be the biggest thing holding you back from reaching your goal of efficiency. Good luck.

If Roman is so welcome, where is his Cole The Cornstar hoodie?😂

Greetings from Northeast Ohio. My heart breaks for Roman and his family for what is happening in his homeland. War is horrible. When will The world ever learn? I pray that Roman’s parents and extended family are here safe in America as well.

I worked with farmers most of my working career. You didn't need to explain about farm size and comparisons. You've done a lot of work, with your family, in order for your farm to be more efficient and even larger areas to plant. I've never heard you brag or boast, just facts. You have nothing to apologize for. We've watched you plant and harvest for several years. Each year is better or more organized than the last. You've shown all the things you need to know about making a profit or larger yields due to experiments or different seed. You've also shown all the things a family farm does in between planting and harvest. On top of all that, cleaning up the property you bought from your great grandfather. And, last but not least, having to remodel your home. This is a necessary remodel. And, if that was not enough, you got married and now have 2 little boys! I would say you have many hats, a few more than your other family members. But, they are so willing to pitch in and help. You are blessed to have your family, a life that you enjoy and love, and your growing family and patient loving wife. ❤😊

Microphone is a great addition. Thanks!

Omg! I used to get “hired” on a crew of neighborhood boys to walk fields in the spring picking rocks for my Aunt and Uncle here in Indiana. We picked trailers full of rocks every year. So cool they can spot them with drones now.

Glad you got an editor missing all that sleeps not good for you. Even just having Roman who is happy present takes a bit of the pressure off as well.

That new mic is great! You really don't have to hold it up to someone so they can talk. It is pretty sensitive to people talking! As others have said, it is great in wind, as we barely heard the winds in your vid! Glad to see you have good progress overall, but still disappointed in the heartache the bin site is pressing on your family. Keep us up on things! Thanks Cornstars!

Yay, everyone likes Roman

Awesome news about Roman being a solid long term member of the Cornstar family! We love his fun good natured contributions to your brand. Keep up the great work. Much love from Buckeye country - Northwest Ohio! 💙

I’ve watched for years and tell everyone that we as a people are so lucky to have farmers. I get tired knowing how hard you all work for us! I’m a great fan, keep it up. Bless you all

Roman could make TWO chicken coops....one wood...one stone! See which one the big bad wolf can blow down!

I just want to say, "Roman, if you don't feel safe around Cole, eat a lollipop in one of his videos."

Estate planning is the best thing to do. My parents did not do this, not communicated anything with their children. Three years, and still trying to settle this.

So glad to hear that you are estate planning and taking every situation into consideration! My in-laws who raised 5 children on a dairy farm didn't have an estate plan until they were well into their 80's and were secretive about their plans. When they died a few years later, their not very thought out plan caused a lot of hate and discontent. You are going about it the right way for your situation.

Estate planning is huge Stepmom always said the house would be in a trust for us She passed No trust no will

ROCKS! Roman could build a stone mansion for his chicken farming operation. As ingenuous Roman is, he could start a gravel operation and sell them for road material.

Roman is such a gift from God. I only sit and watch, but I could clearly see that the work hours you all put in are over the top. There is more to life than work, so I am very happy Roman is there. I have no sons, but if I could pick out sons of my own, all you young men would be my first pick. You are all work horses, so very industrious, never afraid to try new ideas, very bright, and you are humble. That's no small thing in my book. I love your love of God and family. You are a credit to your parents. Well done!

Cole, I've been watching you for years now and, you should be proud of yourself and the team you have now, you have turn over the in-tire farm from the Oger graveyard and the other places that has been a dump site for old farm equipment and you cleaned up everything to where the farm looks fresh and new, also the new mic is perfect. i hope this helps you boost your and your team's morale. looking forward for more Cole the Cornstar :D

Just an idea for your cement slab. Dig out the ground a little. Use the big rocks as base material. Then spread some 5/8- gravel on top of rocks. Compact the gravel with plate Wacker. Ask the guys to design the cement base foundation. If that will be good base material UNDER cement slab. Just an idea for those ROCKs to be used for you on Farm. I do that for my base under my 5/8- pad for parking my 35 thousand pound big truck on.

The mic is a huge addition, great move.

I'm a 70-year-old female non-farmer. Great video! The rock finder was the most exciting thing. Very cool. Listening to Daddy Cornstar talk about whether the soil is ready was interesting. The overall feel of the video was organized and thoughtful, with the assurance of future planning, getting your ducks all in a row, buying the filters at that big sale, and clearing that creek for Cooper's use with his hay business. It's not even my farm, and I felt comfortable with the farm's future. I appreciate your acknowledgment of all your helpers.

A new grain dryer comes around as often as a new child. Be excited for it buddy! You and your family are future proofing the farm for the next generation, keep on keeping on.

I'm so happy to hear Roman is sticking around! He seems like a sweet and hard working guy. Great to hear the updates on the farm overall!

Not a farmer and thought this would be boring. I was wrong. This was fascinating.

Let's have an update about Sister Summer and the cornstar costume. D. C. has changed a lot in four years. Keep on farming Cornstar Family ❤

What a refreshing break from the house videos. This new microphone is so much better. You're not yelling all the time. Bravo for the permanent addition of Roman! Be careful what kind of information regarding the lawsuit that you make public! The less said the better!!

Pretty soon, Roman's chicken coup will be upgraded from wood to now stone and mortar

Round of applause to the maintenance team, Cooper and Zach for these guys to step up and do all the maintenance requirement for your operation is commendable. Nicely done guys!

Roman is a wonderful person who is funny,intelligent and a very capable help to the family. He and his family will be fantastic new citizens of the United States!

Due to the reaionance frequency of your voice when you yell I realized I hated my center channel speaker and because of you I now own the exact center channel speaker I wanted. It sounds amazing. Keep changing lives.

Cole your knowledge of all the farm equipment blows me away. There is never any rest on the farm. Always something to keep you busy and costing money to fix, plant or plow!! Wonderful and beautiful farm. If those boulders were here in Arkansas you could sell them for sure. I had mine stolen out of my yard!!

Mic is a big improvement. I always have to skip the first 20 seconds or so because the intro is so loud. You aren't yelling with the mic on.

Cole , you and Copper are amazing individuals. He’s good in things that you’re not and you’re good at things he’s not that’s a great team. Your whole family works together , which is even more amazing in these times. Through God all things are possible. Always remember that.🙏🏻🥰

Many years ago I went through a legal situation on our farm. I learned very quickly to follow the old maxim, "don't let your right hand know what your left hand is doing and vice versa".

Cole, when you say watch the video from start to finish, you are asking us to watch all the advertisements placed in the video every ten minutes all the way through and not skipping them. I’m sure this is what pays for these videos. That being said, your personality and intelligence is well worth watching a few commercials. Been a sub for five years.

Hi, Roman what a honor to be with daddy corn star Roman you have become the star of the show and the renovation thank you very much. We truly appreciate it and we love watching you.

Good to hear all of this! My son is a farmer! Go farmers!!!

I would suggest if Cooper is using it to bale hay all the time spacing out the wheels wider than 30” rows would be a beneficial decision

You're not yelling at us anymore. Microphone is wonderful!

Cole, My Fiancé is from Iowa and we never miss a video. I introduced her to your channel and have been fans for as long as we can remember. You have a wonderful family and You are an extraordinary young man.

I lost my mom at 9 no will and now my dad is 73 just diagnosed with stage 4a cancer and goes into surgery in two days. He won't do a will or anything like that. So I am very happy that your family is preparing. My dad went into the doctor and and now 3 weeks later gonna be having a major surgery. You honestly just never know what is gonna happen we can just thank god we wake up each morning.😢

I have been in overhead doors for 10 years and as far as I understand it they do not hold a building being pressurized to holding wind hitting the face but overhead is the way to go

I subbed for the renovations on the house, stayed for the personalities, and will be here for the long haul because the farming video(s) are so interesting to watch/learn! Love you guys! ❤

New microphonee is great! You can speak and not yell. Love this show whether you are farming, cleaning up, or remodeling.

You are so lucky to have Cooper, Zach and now Roman they are the backbone of your farm. The farm is where the $ is at now remodeling your house

@ColeTheCornstar You should look into filing a stay of continuance and a right to speedy trial. This way your not locked into anymore years waiting to go to court. The MIC sounds fantastic by the way.

Good video. My husband was a farmer and farmed until the owner died and the farm was sold. Great to give non farmers an idea of what goes into farming. 😊

Estate planning is VERY complicated, but extremely important. Years and years of hard labor sustaining the Family Farm, just doesn’t seem right to ”give” it to Uncle Sam and the State of Iowa. Good on you for tackling this difficult task. And good luck.

I appreciate the update and I am hopeful that the court system will work out a situation where you and your farm get what you deserve... A bin system that is safe and working!

I liked hearing Cole speak nicely without shouting at me. Much improved. Loved that machine that Hunter was using to gobble up the rocks. It kinda looked like a dinosaur chomping thru the fields of rocks. Good to have you on board ( year round ) Roman ‼️ I’ll miss seeing Justin and Austin for awhile.

I love to watch daddy Cornstar feeling around in the dirt and explaining what he looks for. You can just sense the great amount of experience he has from years of farming and its wonderful to share in that experience.

Man, Cole is awesome. I watch because I find the work he does entertaining / educational, but Cole’s gratefulness for his people & people watching make me an even bigger fan.

Everyone. Let’s get Cole to 1 million subscribers! He deserves it, the family deserves it, the team deserves it and the farm deserves it! Go share these videos with all your family and friends!

The microphone is great. Helps you hear everything you say. You can barely hear the wind. I love the way your family helps each other on the different projects on the farm. Roman is a great he has a great sense oh humor. Thank you for making me feel like a "member" of the family!

Your mic was just fine. Having a large farm is a lot of work, takes a lot of money and upkeep. You and your family are doing a great job! Many blessings to you and your family.

You are so very organized. An aspect necessary for farming. Long days, work 365 days a year and have to have several skills from mathematician, mechanic, stamina and family support. You and your family have it all. Great DNA.

Cooper is a hard worker. And is a true mechanic. Thank you Cooper for your work .It was visible even when you went to school. I would like to see more content from you. I guess you don't want this attention but I loved your video's.

Cole, I watched that wall being built and then loaded with your "back-ups". It still looks clean and neat. That was a project that you sooo wanted accomplished. You "done good". As the saying goes. Keep plugging along, and your goals will be met.

Cole don’t sell yourself short, you are an important part of your farm and family. God gets all the praise, but don’t underestimate your worth sir. Thank you for the update , and my warmest wishes for a safe and prosperous year!!!!

I enjoy your podcast. I am a small business owner. Many of my clients are farmers. Not in the AG field. I clean up what they get dirty, personal vehicle wise. I'm based in Central Illinois. Hello neighbor. Thanks for talking with whatever you do, whether its the house or the farm. I don't usually comment on something that helps me to relax. The commentary between everyone is encouraging. Love the house. Thanks to each American who does their part in uplifting others.

The microphone is great! You should consider contacting Millennial Farmer about the dryer he is selling, might be the perfect fit for much less than new price.

I never knew the extent of work preparing for planting took. WOW! Now I understand some of the reasoning for high prices in the grocery stores. Thanks for sharing…

New mike gives so much better audio than what you’ve been using and really reduces wind noises. Zack and Cooper are mechanical superstars and when watching them work, they do not let the grass grow under their feet. Roman is such a big asset in many ways, engineering, persistent work ethic, sense of humor, and all around great interesting guy. Cole you are a managerial superstar, electrician of sorts, carpenter of sorts and all around great guy along with being a great dad and husband. So enjoyed listening to Daddy Cornstar dig into the ground with his hands and give his take on when planting would be done. And putting all the different segments together was Cedric, the editing superstar. Thanks so much about giving the different vendors credit for what they were adding to your farm productivity. The rock app and related equipment rock digging machine was almost unbelievable to watch. What a great channel this is and thanks Cole for your generous spirit.

My gosh, I have so much to say. I don't know where to start. I live in the Panhandle of Nebraska. I grew up on a farm. We grew corn, beans, wheat, and sugar beats. We used irrigation, so I remember halling pipe, moving socks, and changing water three times a day. He lost the farm in 1984, but my brother bought it and dad worked for him for many years. My dad is gone now, but my brother still has the farm and is doing goid. My dad never bought anything but John Deere and my brother is that way. I have a John Deere mower that I bought used many years ago and it runs like a top so I am sold, too. Lol I have to be honest, when I heard you don't irrigate, I was shocked. Evidently it works because you have been going a long time, but it still surprises me. I hope it continues to work for you. I want to tell you more, but this is long enough. Contact me if you are interested. Best of luck to you and I love your channel. I watch it all the time. The new microphone is great. You sound much better. 😊

Melennial Farmer is selling his dryer

Here on our farm in Central Ontario Canada we took out our old stone fence lines and sold them . The stones are mostly 14-25 inches that have been sitting out in the elements for years and years. The landscaping company did buy some that were just picked in the last few years. These stones get sold down in the cities in Southern Ontario.

I found a rock picker website this weekend. You attach the rock picker bucket. The attachment picks the rock and spins like a bingo machine, separate the dirt and rock. You then drop the rock into the bucket. 😊

I hope the dryer people are better than the bin people.

Rocks ! My friends never understand why I don't like decorative rocks in the landscape. As a farmer's daughter, I watched my Dad throwing rocks out of the fields. I can totally relate!

Ah the joys of rock picking. I remember doing this for a farmer - best/worst day, 20 acres - 4 big trailer loads all by hand! All I heard was - "what have you been doing all day?" and then he saw the pile! lol. That machine looks awesome.

I am a Swedish American from Minnesota. We use rocks from farm fields to build rock walls. They are needed by highway crews for embankment, bridges, foundation work, etc. Try advertising your rock collection to those kind of businesses & ground Works. You have gold in them thar hills of rocks.
