In this episode of the Talking Shed Podcast, Adam and Cody sit down with Grandpa Jim for a deep, honest conversation about how farming has changed over the decades. From horse-drawn equipment and $250-an-acre farmland to modern high-horsepower tractors, no-till practices, and massive implements, Grandpa Jim shares firsthand stories from the early days of agriculture.

The discussion covers spring plowing, ear corn harvest, early no-till adoption, chemical use, livestock on small farms, and how efficiency, technology, and mindset have reshaped rural America. This episode is part history lesson, part family storytelling, and a reminder of how far farming has come and where it might be headed next.
