The fun.
Brett was cleaning out a fence row for a neighbor in northeast Ohio. He found four implements with strange-looking attachment mechanisms. One of them had a tag, and he could read the words Farm-Aid for the Jeep. A quick search and he found us. You can read how these rare implements were reunited with the only Farm-Aid lift we know of here.
Ben sent us a story about how his FCs work at Windy Sage Farm. You can read the story here.
That didn’t work.
Back in January 2024, we posted about starting a hydraulic lift registry. We thought that, even though others had tried and failed, new software would make the creation of a database fast and easy. While the software does work, it has been a case of you can lead a horse to water, etc. The only updates we have received over the past year are from spammers. It was a good idea, but the project failed.
We will keep the “spotter’s guide“, but remove the data collection forms and the database. The data we have will be available to anyone who requests it. We will continue to update the database with any new information we might receive.
And things are looking brighter.
Although the registry project was a failure, we continue to uncover stories about the Farm Jeep. Stay tuned!
