We hope you took some time Thursday to salute Wisconsin’s tens of thousands of ag producers on National Farmer’s Day. In countless farmhouses around the country you’ll find a poem written by Paul Harvey in 1978, “God Made a Farmer.” It’s a poignant anthem to the work and sacrifice needed for a farm to be productive 365 days a year.

But farmers are also great at poking a little fun at themselves, so please enjoy this send-up to honor the grain cart drivers. They’re the folks who have to drive in sync alongside farmers harvesting grain with a combine. One slip-up can delay the harvest or lose a race with an approaching storm. But when the work’s all done, they can enjoy a good chuckle like the material that makes up this parody. 🎥: Yellowandco_farmhouse, Facebook #wisconsin #wisconsinnews #wisconsinoutdoors #wisconsinfarmers #farmers
