Warning! New Semi-Truck Driver 2021 Part 1
In today's video ..... yes it is my first time driving one of our semi-trucks loaded with 80,000 pounds of wheat to the commercial grain elevator. I'm so excited! You will see Darcy tarping and driving his semi-truck after it is filled with wheat at our Montana farm. My dad is teaching me how to drive our big rig from our Montana farm down the highway, on the freeway, and on gravel roads. This Freightliner truck has a lot of horsepower. I have to merge onto the freeway while another semi-truck is passing by. I learn to use the mirrors and how to turn while watching the trailer follow the truck. It is a lot to take in. Dad has a lot of important tips and comments as we are moving down the road. I learn about the instruments and gages and then the low coolant warning light comes on and starts beeping. I drive the semi-truck and trailer onto the scales at United Grain elevator and then into the elevator to unload the wheat. I meet Zane Somerfeld who is unloading our wheat and it is a small world because last year I took driver's education with his sister Jersey. Zane is an amazing truck driver and I am honored that he gives me the biggest compliment and greatest encouragement. A big hello to his sister Jersey who is a farmer and drives all kinds of big equipment too!! Semi-trucks are fun to drive! Thank you for watching my video. Don't forget to like and subscribe.

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 two years old. 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 hope that my Farm to Fashion and Farm to Table products can help educate people about where their food comes from in a fun way. That is how Kate's Ag became a reality. I hope you love my products 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.
