Kansas-based Peterson Farm Brothers went viral 13 years ago with their first parody video called ‘I’m Farming, and I Grow It.’ “We filmed this YouTube video, kinda for our friends just to show how much fun we had on the farm as kids, and we posted it,” Nathan Peterson shared during the Lake Region Extension Roundup. “Immediately, our friends started sharing it and we ended up with five million views in one week. ” The three brothers have been riding that wave, building a social media platform that shares the farmer’s story. Greg Peterson said these videos are fun, but they also have a message. “That’s one of the main reasons we make our videos is to hopefully inspire that next generation, but of course, we also make them to educate people about agriculture and hopefully correct some misconceptions people have.”
