Waching daily Dec 1 2018

Hey bitches, welcome back to my youtube channel before I get into this video

I do want to point out that you might hear heavy breathing behind me and no

That is not the Grunch coming up behind me

I take a little bit of this boom tang, but it is my great pyrenees Bentley. He is laying on the bed right now

he has sprained his ankle and he

Will not go like I tried to just get him to lay on his bed

Like yeah, I'm gonna come accord a video real quick, but he just wants to be by me

so I'm gonna pump this video out for you and hopefully he does not start like scratching or something of that nature behind me because

Hmm. He's looking at me. Like I know when you get into this video

I'm just gonna be like

Barking or anything of that nature as always if you are new to this channel

If you could please go ahead and hit the subscribe button

The like button the comment button the share button any button on this channel that you can click girl

Click it except for the exit button. Don't click the exit button. That would not be good

but most importantly if all of you could please hit the notification bell and turn on all notifications because

YouTube is notifications. I've noticed that my notifications have started going out like 30 minutes after the video goes live

So, I mean that's at least a bonus from what it was doing where it wasn't sitting about at all

So I think maybe you too is on its way to actually fixing itself

I do want to make a statement about what kind of channel this is because I do not consider myself a drama channel

I'm not someone who sits there and like digs for receipts over on guru gossip born reddit or anything of that nature

because trust me I

Wouldn't even know what the hell I was doing over on reddit

I think I'm the only person out here that does not know how to use that website and everyone's like oh my god

Did you go check reddit for like drag race tips or anything of that? No. No, I didn't because I have zero

Clue how to use that. I know I am showing you guys the facts and the proof but above anything on this channel

I would just like it to be a commentary channel where I come in and give you guys my opinion I get your opinion down

In the comments and we can have a conversation about whatever is going on

I'm not out here trying to destroy anyone's life or not how you're trying to tear anyone down?

But girl if you're gonna act a fucking fool on the internet then trust and believe I'm gonna have an opinion

I'm a very opinionated person. I have always been that way and I come it's just here to stay, honey

Just like these longer videos because I've actually been really enjoying sitting down in front of this microphone

It kind of makes me feel like I'm doing a pod caste or something of that effect

Because I do like this microphone I got the Yeti microphone

Ya'll don't care go away. Please just get to the fucking point of this video. Alright, let's get into it

I will tell you guys why now?

This is gonna be the last time that I mentioned this Charles gross situation that's going on with him and his husband at least

Until he says something a little bit more crazy because now it is so evident that this is just a trolling

Situation the husband has gotten in on the trolling just a few minutes ago before I sat down to record this video the husband

Cole we'll just call him Cole because his name he uploaded a video called meet my boyfriend where he's trying to give people

the impression that he has a boyfriend and then we'll make you watch the beginning of it and then it goes to

Well, apparently you two guys can't be friends on Instagram and it's like, you know

They have that really like dry sense of humor like nobody finds funny. Yeah, that's what that is

So if you want to go check that out, I did link that video down below. I mean, honestly

girl, I

Think we're over it

Let's move on to the next subject

something that a lot of people have been waiting for and not waiting for it because they want to buy it or ask someone to

Get it for them for Christmas something

A lot of people have been waiting for is the release of many anyways

holiday collection because a lot of people are curious as to what he's gonna put out for the holidays now Laura Lee

Launched hers a few weeks ago as you guys know, we're that awful awful

Bo picture which is now on the screen, I mean, that's just

That's just bad. I would like to know who wore it better

Was it her or was it me when I was shopping at Target and just just let me know in the comments

All right all shade aside

Probably for just a few seconds. I am really shocked that he is releasing it in December now

Correct me if I'm wrong on this

but

if you were gonna have a holiday collection come out for any brand wouldn't you want to announce it at least the middle of the

Month before it comes out. So people can be like, oh my god. It's so exciting. Oh my god

Lemme build some hype with it

You know like build hype on your channel by putting the makeup on having people use the makeup having youtubers do reviews on it

I just feel like man emu a is not that business savvy

I think that he actually used to get a team that is not his family because obviously they don't know what they're doing

we all know what happened with the last palette that came out and that was

Everyone got refunded that paid with PayPal. So is that gonna happen again? I'm sorry

Where is the hype for this product, you know back when he came out with his life's a drag palette?

I remember there was a situation where Willem the drag queen and

He can say there's no drama about this whatever he wants to but this is just my opinion again

he synched the palette to Willem Willem had the palette and one was like

Oh you want to come over and do a look on my face using this and Manny actually said no

But we can do another video. Hey, I have this life's a drag palette if you don't

Know it's

Someone I don't know very well, but I wanted him to do my makeup. He's like no, but there's some other video

Why don't you want to hype up your own products?

Why do you think that everyone has to do the work for you? Manny actually had this to tweet yesterday

He said you guys my holiday collection reveal is next week. Oh my god

Faces heart emoji and

Yeah, I had to retweet it and ask correct me if I'm wrong

But isn't that late to release a holiday collection? What could possibly go wrong now?

I'm not sure if you just used the wrong terminology, you know

Those people like to say that they say things wrong all the time

But according to his own words that is just the reveal next week. So when is the actual launch because

There's only gonna be 25 days till Christmas. Tomorrow's December first. There is no hype for this product

I'm sorry, you'd the work that you have to do is not just you doing a reveal on your channel

That's not working to sell a product. You need people to know how this product works

It cannot just be on your face. It needs to be on other people

This is not going to work out well for Manny anyway

In my opinion you guys what do you guys think below?

Do you think that Manny has waited way too long to release his holiday collection?

Do you think that he probably should have done it a few weeks ago or do you think this is proper timing for the holiday?

Collection. I mean Geoffrey Starr did his like how many weeks ago now?

It's been a hot minute. I think people actually ready have the holiday collection from jeffrey star in their hands laura

as I said did it a few weeks ago and oh, I don't know what the holdup was with Manning like

Shouldn't you have like some kind of product in your hand so you can be like hey guys

This is what's gonna be coming out and I understand that maybe not every unit has been made yet

But girl you should have had this out like early November

Oh, right

You guys the time has come to talk about Jeffrey star Nikita Dragon and Nate's brother the other day as you guys know

I mean every channel out there talked about this Jeffrey allowed nig its brother to come on to his channel and

Basically, just tell his truth while following one of his makeup tutorials. It was a very good video

I mean

It wasn't like I wasn't like too excited about it after I saw them the key to thing at the beginning

I kind of just clicked out of it because I mean I really don't care that he's moving out there to work for Jeffrey

I think it's great. But I mean, it's just not something that I would want to sit through personally

well in that video he

Did spill OTO bathin the kita thing saying I don't know what's been going on with that whole thing once I moved back to

Michigan obviously had told you in the beginning I was pursuing my own

like life and I wanted like move forward with my photography skills and

then all of a sudden I come along this video on YouTube and

Allegations saying that I slept with nakita while I was here and that was the whole thing

All right. So we coming out a few times me Nikita. I mean it was always around Jeffery and for her birthday, so

It wasn't really like any a long time. I don't know how you could get that out of that, but I don't know

She's super nice. We don't have any tea. I mean there's nothing really going on

I just moved back for me, then. I'm back out here because I

Want to do it. I'm ready to go. So no

There's no tea now

If you guys will remember the person who started the rumor

originally are played into the rumor was actually here for the tea when she

tried to make a whole video saying the real reason that he left was because they slept together and it just was a very

negative thing I'm not gonna link her video down below just because

It's just spreading the false information. So without further ado here is Nikita's response

There is no tea you guys know there is so many lies and rumors and beauty drama and whatever

Constantly being thrown out there. And as we all know I rarely ever speak on it literally ever about a year ago

There was a rumor going around saying that I hooked up with Nathan's brother and that's reason why

Jeffery and I stopped being friends and

That's a reason why he's a kind of going back to Michigan and this whole ordeal and I'm like girl

I never even hung out with him 101

The only time I ever saw him was out like my birthday party and probably another time going to the movies or something

Honestly, I never spoke about I just could I thought it was so ridiculous

But I do want to say actually a thank you to exact for just clearing that rumor of and just deading

I know I just never wanted to talk about it because I just thought why would anyone make something so stupid up like out of?

nowhere

Honestly this year I've learned that no matter what you do no matter what you say

People are always gonna have an opinion about you. People are always gonna say you said this and said that and whatever

So all you have to do is really be yourself and let it all play out. The truth always will come out

You know, it's crazy

Like some people really forget that this is actually our real life's and we're real human beings and despite all the fake news and drama

And tea that people want to spill and whatever at least for me

I like to handle my business

Offline because I feel like a lot of things don't need to be hashed out in front of everyone

You know

I'm gonna have a problem with someone I'm gonna have a problem with them and I'm gonna deal it with this instance and so many

Other instances. Yes

I've chosen not to speak about a lot of things because I am just handling things on my own or just because they're so ridiculous

That I don't feel like my time or my energy is even worth

You know repeating it or trying to even solve it because it's just so ridiculous

sweetie, I'll forever be and bothered I

Agree with Nikita to some extent where she said she just didn't want to talk about it cuz it was just some silly rumor she

Should not have to go out onto the Internet neither

Should he and tell people who they have slept with it is nobody's business now

Is it something I could have easily been squashed a long time ago? And the rumor would have been like dead in the water?

yeah, of course, of course, it could have been but I mean who's like

Oh, by the way, guess who I slept with ha ha ha ha like it's a notch on a headboard

It's not it's not so there you have it you guys what do you think below?

do you guys think that they are covering for something they're covering for something because you know

Someone's gonna try to come up with that bullshit on Twitter or somewhere. So we're gonna make a video and come over that bullshit

Let's be honest. So what do you guys think? Are you guys?

Excited that they cleared this up. I don't know. I don't know

I still like amazed by some of the stuff that actually makes like the news on the Internet air quotes because we're I'm sorry

They're adults. They're consenting adults. They are not doing anything to harm no one and

Good for them if they slept together and good for them. If they didn't that is my opinion

I hope you guys enjoyed this video and I will see you guys all in the next one

10 Scary Fan Encounters With YouTubers - Duration: 12:14.

YouTubers can control their content, but as these videos show, they can't always control

the thoughts and desires of a few scary fans . . .

10.

Kenneth and Opi run a YouTube channel together called Team Creed.

The two brothers having a private conversation when a vehicle quietly rolls up directly beside

them and the driver looks over.

Eventually the person gets out of their car and identifies themselves as a huge fan, which

they certainly must be given that they're able to spot Team Creed solely based on a

non-descript gray van.

At first they try to tell him to politely move on.

But when he insists on staying, Kenneth gets out of the car and tries to make some sense

out of the situation.

Things get worse when the stranger mumbles out a bizarre proposition.

This stranger knows that Team Creed has been having some housing problems lately and he

seems to be want to take advantage of them.

The conversation takes a turn for the worst when Opi gets out and pins the creepy fan

against a car to make it clear that he wants to be left alone.

The fan finally relents, but listen to this part and tell me if he sounds merely disappointed

or like he's already plotting revenge . . .

9.

It's Spring Break and a YouTuber named Chilly is kind enough to let her fans visit her at

her home throughout the day.

Everyone is polite and respectful except for one guest.

They're having a normal conversation and he seems fine at first, but then he starts

eyeing something off-camera a few times.

After a while he just goes for it.

The purse taker doesn't make it far and is quickly wrestled to the ground by one of

Chilly's friends named Tito.

In addition to the purse, they also find a taken watch that he swiped off of the kitchen

counter.

Fortunately he surrenders easily without much of a hassle.

They are very forgiving and decide not to call the cops.

Let me know if you would have done the same.

All in all, I think everyone is lucky not to have gotten hurt.

After this experience, I bet Chilly is now more cautious about who she invites into her

home.

8.

William Hernandez has a serious problem to deal with, he claims that everyday the same

red truck pulls over in front of his home and watches him and his wife.

William finally breaks down and sets up a CCTV system for proof.

The very next day, the same red truck stops across the street right after they pull into

the driveway, almost like he followed them home.

William calmly snaps a photo of the driver's license plate and the truck quickly takes

off.

He's posted numerous updates to his channel since this incident, but it's unclear if

he was ever able to identify who was watching him and his family.

7.

Gavin Free and Meg Turney are a married couple who have experienced a lot of success on YouTube,

most notably with a channel called The Slow Mo Guys.

Among their millions of subscribers, however, was one fan who somehow developed an insane

obsession with Meg Turney in particular.

His name was Christopher Giles, a man who wrote hundreds of personal notes to himself

about the married couple, most of which revolved around taking out Gavin, who he saw as direct

competition to Meg.

One day, he can no longer contain his rage and drives a full eleven hours to their house

to get even.

He breaks in and searches for them for a long time, but Gavin and Meg manage to successfully

hide in the closet and call the police.

Apparently Christopher fires randomly throughout the house for a long time before giving up

and leaving, at which point he makes contact with the police at the front door.

Christopher Giles passes away during this confrontation.

I'm just glad that the police were able to arrive in time because I have little doubt

that he would have come back later to do the same thing.

6.

Jake Wardell is a motocross YouTuber with a moderate following, and is a bit of a local

celebrity.

He is out dirt biking with a friend, and it isn't long before someone recognizes them.

They have a brief chat and it isn't clear if he is a fan or is angry about their dirt

biking.

Either way, they decide to take off but they don't make it far before another person

blocks off their path and begins approaching them.

This other man begins talking down to them and takes an aggressive stance, I think Jake

must've known he'll follow them if they try to take off so he decides to defuse the

situation instead.

Luckily, this situation doesn't end badly due to Jake taking the high road, but who

knows how bad things could have gotten with the unpredictability of these men.

Especially, since that one man was willing to completely stop them from getting past.

5.

Dom Soto is making a vlog in his bedroom when an urgent knocking sends him rushing to the

front door.

Dom Soto actually opens the door for this masked stranger, which automatically makes

me think this video could be scripted because I think most people would have kept it locked.

Then again, maybe he didn't think this was anything serious at the time, or maybe he

couldn't understand what the person was trying to say through their mask.

Whatever the case may be, they have a short and tense exchange.

Eventually Dom Soto convinces his "biggest fan" to leave only to have him unexpectedly

return moments later at the window.

By this point it's obvious that Dom Soto is not going to get rid of this intruder without

help from the police, so he turns off the video and goes to call them.

If this is real, then no update has been given on the situation for well over a year.

4.

Nathan TubeUrLife lives in a remote mountain location and has never revealed his home address.

This still doesn't stop someone from apparently figuring out where he lives and paying him

a visit.

Nathan wasn't home at the time, so they decide to leave a really creepy note for him

to come back to.

The person leaves their personal cell phone number with instructions to call.

Just the fact that they were essentially tracking Nathan down makes this note come off as aggressive

and weird.

I think it would be really interesting if someone could analyze the handwriting and

tell me more about this potential stalker's personality.

Later Nathan musters up the courage to make contact with his fan, and the conversation

is about as eerie as you'd expect.

Nathan looks all around, but ultimately he doesn't see anyone else.

They probably were not nearby because they could have made a noise if they really wanted

Nathan to see where they were.

I think this probably just one of his friends or else some random weirdo messing with his

mind.

Then again, a short while later he sees a black SUV speeding away that he has never

seen before, so maybe someone really was watching his every move from a distance.

3.

JayGame has been having problems with a stalker lately who has been coming around his home

dressed like a clown.

He is pretty sure it is just some local high school students who watch his channel, but

lately they've been growing bolder and now something new has pushed him to his absolute

breaking point.

One day he returns home only to find a creepy letter inside of a tattered envelope with

red stains all over.

The outside says "we followed you home" and the inside says that they are going to

come for him at 2 o'clock.

Instead of calling the police, JayGame decides to handle this problem himself.

He keeps his camera rolling and waits at home all day for them to come over.

Hours later, two loud bangs from outside send a jolt of adrenaline coursing through him.

Instead of rushing out the door, he sneaks upstairs to get a better look at his adversary.

He sees someone dressed like a clown with a scary mask and bright orange hair.

The person doesn't look very large, maybe about the size of a high schooler, but it's

the menacing posture combined baseball bat that keeps JayGame away.

He waits a long time before going outside, where he finds the gate has been left wide

open.

It seems like they are gone for the time being, but who knows when they will be back again.

2.

James Neese is a YouTuber who has been uploading for over three years now.

Sometime in those three years, a 30-year-old man named Michael Leib becomes absolutely

obsessed and begins soliciting him across a variety of social media platforms.

The messages soon grow dark and talk about taking James Neese from his home.

He even sent messages to his mother saying "I am going to take your son" and other

more creepy statements.

Perhaps his most worrisome confession is when he admits that he has taken a nine hour drive

to their house more than one time.

One day James's parents see a man hanging around their house and call the police.

He runs away, but the police set up a quick investigation.

Investigators use James's phone to message Michael and convince him to come back to the

house.

When he comes back, he is taken into custody on the spot.

Michael Leib is eventually sentenced to probation with no time behind bars.

Let me know if you think this is a fair and just verdict or not.

Before we get to number 1, my name is Chills and I hope you're enjoying my narration.

1.

Christina Grimmie was an extremely popular singer who was first discovered on YouTube

after a video of her covering Miley Cyrus went viral.

She continued to gain more fame over the years and even won third prize on The Voice.

One night she is extra excited to be performing at a concert in Orlando, Florida and takes

to social media with a special announcement.

Unfortunately, a deranged fan named Kevin Loibl decides to come to her concert.

After driving 120 miles to her show, he walks up and fires three shots at point blanc range

before taking his own life.

His few friends would later say Kevin became obsessed with Christina Grimmie and thought

he could somehow change the world through ending her life.

They didn't know the full extent of his madness at the time, only that he watched

her videos every waking moment for about a year before doing this.

I would hope that if anyone you know starts showing the same behaviors that you would

try to get them professional help.

The County Seat - Utah Farm Bureau - Farm to table - Duration: 28:51.

How far does that glass of milk or that bowl of

grapes travel before it get to your table in your

house good question hi everybody welcome to

the county seat, I'm your host Chad Booth.

That is going to be part of our discussion today

as we look at the connection between the

agricultural community in Utah how big and

how important and everybody else that lives

here so we are going to start our discussion by

taking you out to the farm via the school kids as

we take a look at how early we start the process

of making that connection between farm and

food.

The Wheadon Family was one of the founding

families of South Jordan, in 1915 my great

grandpa Alma Wheadon purchased this 40 acre

farm, and then my grandpa bought it off his dad

and he paid 200 dollars and acre for it.

So these are our Belgians, this is our Belgian

team we have always had a team of work

horses my grandpa firmly believed in doing stuff

with a horse even when a machine could have

done it,

My grandparents built this house in 1965 when

you see the aerial photos it is so compelling to

see, you just have these huge masses of land

with one farm house in the middle. And its like

that all along the Salt Lake Valley and now its

completely changed, and that was only from

1965 to now.

A few years a go we had an interesting

experience a whistle blower showed up on my

mom's doorstep at 10:30 at night , and said

there is something going on at the city that you

need to be aware of, and we looked on the city

website and come to find out the city had

sloted to take half of our farm by eminent

domain for soccer fields . We had to fight tooth

and nail and say hey, we are not going to go

down without a fight. But eminent domain is a

huge battle we are constantly battling

Number one farms are important because it's

important to have open space but farmers are

important because its important to have

someone who knows what to do with the open

space. If we develop all of our open land what's

going to happen when the day comes when the

other states that we rely on so heavily for

agriculture like California for example, when the

day comes that they can't ship us the food that

we count on then how are we going to feed

ourselves.

And its critical that we teach our youth that

there are fields in agriculture there are careers

in agriculture to be had we not only need to

encourage that we need to reward it,

So in 2nd grade they do its called farm field days

they do it out at Butterfield farms in Harromon

and then they do 7th grade ag days which we

just hosted here for the first time this last year

had a great experience had thousands of 7th

graders here at the farm and are looking

forward to doing that in the future. And its

important to show these kids that there are

still, agriculture is not a think of the past it cant

be a thing of the past.

Farm build Field days is the Farm bureau's way

of teaching elementary kids about agriculture.

As a way to introduce kids to cows and field

crops and things and those things they don't get

a chance to experience anymore because they

live in homes in sub divisions and stuff like that.

What is this, an apple, an apple is a what? A

fruit!

Instead of hearing well we experienced this at

grandpas farm, now it's our family used to have

a farm or our great grandpa used to have a

farm. Especially in the north end of Utah County

more and more of the farms in this area are

gone.

Utah County is at a tipping point where if we

continue to build over our agricultural ground,

we will in I think its in 5 more years we will no

longer be able to raise enough food and fiber in

this area to sustain the population,

As I have become more involved with the farm

Bureau and I go to state conventions and things

and meet farm kids from other parts of the Salt

Lake Valley, it's interesting to hear their stories

to and to not feel so alone, here where we are

completely surrounded and feel like we are

fighting a loosing battle and I go and meet other

farmers in Salt Lake County and they are

fighting the exact same battle we are fighting

here in South Jordan and there are so few of us

clinging hanging on for dear life.

We will continue our discussion and I cannot

really say what all the guys say on network TV

about we are going to get into the weeds

because the guys we are talking to don't want

anything to do with weeds when we come back

we will talk to our experts on the county seat.

Welcome back to the county seat we are talking

about the linkage between home and farm and

how many people are missing the mark joining

us for our continuing discussion of the

importance of understanding how agriculture

plays a role in our daily lives our Millard farm

bureau Jared Bueller and the state farm bureau

president Ron Gibson. Guys thanks for joining

us.

Thanks for having us.

So before we started the show Jared you

related a conversation about a kid who said

what chickens make tell us that story that sums

up the problem we have.

When you we get to farm field days they ask

they see the chicken they see the feathers some

of these kids do not know that eggs come from

chickens. So it's a pretty crazy question when

you are born into agriculture and not

understanding that somebody would not know

what a chicken does.

I remember my grandfather raising chickens at

his house and he would go out there on a

stump and go get a headless chicken and by

dinner time we had chicken dinner so I

remember that but I guess how do you think we

lost that connection.

Well there is no way to bring that point home

then to actually live on a farm or a ranch just

like the story you just talked about. I think the

biggest challenge that we have in society today

is that people are so removed from agriculture

everybody less than 2% of the population of the

US work in production agriculture. That means

that 98% of the people don't so when we are

not close to the agriculture and we do not see

how animals are raised and taken care of and

how that process works people lose track of

how important it is and how it works.

I am thinking back on this Utah has lost 65% of

its Animal Monthly Units a mama and a calf in

what they eat in month in the last 50 years how

big is that population shift then, do either of

you have any ideas we are down to 2% of the

population involved in ag production was if 15

or 20 percent 50 years ago how big has that

shift been.

I do not know I do know that in 1916 when the

Utah Farm Bureau was established we have

been in business 100 years advocating for

farmers and ranchers when that was

established we had to have about 30% of the

people involved in production agriculture so in

100 years' time we have gone from 30% to 2%

Holy smokes, that is quite a bit. So what kind of

problems does this create for you when people

in the Wasatch Front have no idea what it is

that you do in Millard County?

Me personally I manage an Intermountain

Farmers store in Delta Utah so I make a living

with the farmers so I see it wide if the farmers

go out because they cannot make it anymore it

is huge and not our personal farm my wife's

family runs a big cattle operation I take care of

them but every time somebody goes out of

business it hurts me personally you see it from

small farms it goes to a bigger farm but it don't

take as many people to run a bigger farm then a

whole bunch of little one.

Rob you operation is a dairy operation and you

live across the magic bridge because you get off

you are in Ogden it's a very urban then you

head out towards your farm and you cross the

bridge and then all of the sudden you are like in

an entirely different world its actually very

stunning to see the difference how quickly it

changes, what do the people in Ogden need to

know what is going on in your side of the

county to protect that without your dairy

products the grocery store in Ogden could end

up being dicey.

We live in a unique situation a lot of people

want to live out there it is starting to be the

trend. My wife can get 3 Walmart's in five

minutes from my house yet we have a 1500

cow dairy on 500 acres of land that our family

owns and so it is really kind of a unique

situation out there one thing that is important

to us on our farm and also in the farm bureau

we have to make sure that with only 1% of the

population agricultural producers we have to

make sure that the people in town understand

the importance of agriculture in our

communities if they do not understand the

importance of production of agriculture in our

communities then we are going to lose support

with the laws that are created that will make it

more and more difficult to stay in business.

That leads me to a couple question we will take

a quick break and be right back with our

conversation about the importance to you in

the city about the farm across the way we will

be right back on The County Seat.

Welcome back to The County Seat we are

talking farm and city today I do want to ask a

question though and people go to the grocery

store in Ogden they pull milk and a pound of

hamburger out there they may not realize that

Stones meats a local company provided the

beef they got from ranchers across rural Utah

and that milk came from your place if all of the

sudden those operations were gone how long

would it take or how much milk in Ogden is

coming from your dairy?

Well that is a great point a lot of times people

get this mentality if they just go to the grocery

store they are not buying local products that is

not true you can go to Walmart today and the

milk that is in Walmart is Utah milk all of it the

milk that is in Kent's market is Utah milk and

that is really an important thing to have do you

want your milk brought in from clear across the

country or even worse somewhere out of the

country I don't. and to me that is important a

lot of the fresh produce that is grown especially

during the summer months comes from local

family farms and ranches it is important that we

have local agriculture I cannot even imagine

living in a world where we do not have the

ability to feed ourselves as a state I want to eat

local tomatoes I want to eat that local produce I

of course want to drink that local milk.

Also on that same subject there are so many

people that are moving into Utah and in our

area they are trying to get a hog farms to come

to Millard County as a farm bureau organization

we have met and we want to be behind it if

they fit we would like to bring those hog farms

into Millard county and Smithfield operation

and get behind them and I know they are

working on getting one in the Fillmore area

right now they tried to bring one into the Delta

area but it did not go through. But if we have

that many people moving there is going to be

75,000 people I heard in Wasatch county when I

grew up there was probably 30 or 40 dairies in

Wasatch County ran a dairy and my father in

law ran one there are only 2 dairies left in

Wasatch County probably 50 at one time. Who

is going to feed these people if we don't keep

bringing some of these expansions to our

communities that can fill the farms?

It seems to me there are 2 issues are play one is

a population issue and education issue as far as

having people understand how close

connection between their food supply and the

grocery store actually is and the other one has

to do with legislative policy and what

legislatures do when they are under urban

pressure of being elected and how those urban

guys who control the house and the senate

right now need to pay attention what the rural

guy is saying we need to do to protect

agriculture across the state. How does farm

bureau approach that?

One thing we are doing is we are making a lot of

effort to try and get legislatures onto our farms

so they can see it and we have had 3 events this

year where we have reached out to them to try

and get them to come out and we have had

really good turnouts from that I think legislators

really enjoy it deep inside of everyone's heart is

a tie to agriculture. We have a corn maze and

pumpkin patch on our farm and we had almost

35,000 visitors this year part of the trip is a farm

tour when you pay to come to the corn maze

you get a farm tour and you get to see the baby

calves you get see the cows being milked the

cows live and you get to witness the harvest we

are harvesting the crops all at the same time.

Every time people get off that wagon and after I

have given the tour they walk up to me and

they say my Grandpa or my Uncle was a farmer

I used to go to Idaho in the summers and work

with my cousins everybody wants a tie back to

the agricultural root I think is something that is

very natural inside of us and now as people are

moving farther way from the farm they are

looking for an opportunity to see that so what

farm bureau is trying to do is tie to that

emotional connection that they have so they

can really see and understand how agricultural

producers live their lives and the importance

that agriculture brings to our communities both

economically and culturally.

What kind of things are you doing down in

Millard County?

We as a board year ago was have somebody

from our board attend all the county

commissioner meetings so we already know

what is going on before it actually they have a

hearing or something. Brett Bunker for instance

he was attending some of our meetings and we

threw him out there and 3 or 4 months later he

is on the city council just being involved with

what we are doing as we are going into this we

are trying to have this dinner this year and it's

called feed Millard County by Millard County

with Millard County. What we did is make sure

it corresponds with our fair in August and we

have the local beef producers from farmers

donating lamb and pork the vegetables and

pumpkin pies people do not even know that

pumpkin pies are raised in Millard county now

so we had milk. Local folks selling wheat in 5

gallon buckets and had wheat rolls made and

honey you came through with about 10

different items for 5 bucks that was all local and

signs make that talked about the producer so

everything you got we charged 5 dollars and

250 tickets sold out and every year it will be

sold out even back to my wife made quiche

from the local egg farmers as you came through

you got to see every bit of what was just in

Millard county.

A local feast. Going to take a break when we

come back we talk about how people can be

engaged in helping advance this knowledge of

still the connection between farm and food. Be

right back with the County Seat.

Welcome back to The County Seat we have

been having a discussion about farm bureau

and their role in trying to connect people in the

city to understand that not too far away from

them is local food. I want to ask one question

because Farm Bureau is kind of an enigma just

like the farm is for a lot of city folks. What is

that you guys do on behalf of Utah's agriculture

community?

We always are advocating for local agriculture

and there is sometimes a misconception of

what that means we work at the legislature that

we can help try to pass laws that will be

beneficial to local agricultural producers but

when we do that we are not just working for

farmers and ranchers across the state what we

are doing we are working for every Utah and

the reason that we are is that it is so important

that we have that local agricultures here in our

community that is why it is so important that

we are working for everyone.

We don't want all of our spinach in the produce

department to be wilted as it got shipped from

Wisconsin. What can people do to help farm

bureau along. I live in the city what is the value

of saying I want to be a farm bureau member.

The value is first of all membership for Utah

Farm Bureau is 72 dollars a year so for 6 dollars

a month you can support local Utah agricultures

and first of all be a member of farm bureau and

by doing that it gives us the funds to be able to

do the things we need to do to advocate the

local agricultures and that open space that we

all enjoy and it is such a value to have that local

ag in our community and for you to be involved

in that really helps those that are involved in

production and agriculture be successful.
