Is My Combine Overheating?? Yes it is!!!!! Kate's Ag

Today is a day of wheat harvest on our Montana century farm. You will get to drive with me around the field and learn more about where your food comes from. I started the video after having a delicious lunch in the field. We have a really heavy wheat crop in parts of the field because it got additional fertilizer. I am combining the wheat next to the the 15 grain bins and school house, which we took a tour of in my last video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUTluq698g8&t=44s I drive the combine by the homestead and elevator my Great Grandfather built. I am harvesting in the same field my Great Grandfather did in 1912. You will learn how to drive a combine in a straight line down the field. My combine starts to overheat so I have to stop in the field. My uncle and our hired man come and blow out the filter so I can keep going. There are lots of hawks in the field today. It is incredible. I show you a dump on the go in the grain cart. I also talk about my Farm to Fashion products I am launching this fall. I have been working very hard on them and I am very excited. It is very important to buy U.S.A. made products and locally harvested goods. I have a combine conference call with my mentor the founder of JanSport, Murray McCory. He has the absolute best advice ever and I always love talking to him. I dump into the tandem truck. I explain why you shouldn't go down a coulee with a full tank of grain. I am very passionate about educating people on where their food comes from. I believe everyone should have a connection with their food. At the end of the video you will get to meet my grandpa. Thank you for watching & I hope you like my video!

My Story...
Hello. My name is Kate Stephens and I am a 16-year-old 4th generation farmer. My family has been farming wheat in north central Montana since my great grandfather immigrated from Denmark in 1912 and homesteaded our land. My family has been teaching me about farming since I was 2 years old. Until recently the wheat we grow has been taller than me. My grandfather is 93 and he is the best mentor ever. I run one of the combines on the farm at harvest. I believe that it is important for everyone to know where their food comes from and the families who produce it. I love our farm and I decided that the amazing photos I take at harvest of our wheat and barley could make fabulous, exciting designs for fashion and accessories. That is how Kate's Ag – Farm to Fashion became a reality. I hope you love my handbag as much as I do because this is an extension of our farm and the grains we have been growing to feed other families for over one hundred years.
