Plowing out my “Deere” Neighbors
Growing up on a dairy farm, a “snow day” meant getting on the tractor with a blade and clearing the ½ mile driveway. No matter the weather, milk was picked up daily. My family owned and operated Martin’s Dairy in Dresden, Ohio until the late 1990s.
I was fortunate to purchase our original 1966 John Deere 4020 tractor and bring it back to the farm. Unfortunately, a barn fire destroyed it and several other collectibles in 2014. Purchasing a 1972 John Deere 4020 brings back early family farm memories as I continue to plow out my “Deere” neighbors.
