A mild-mannered Bluffton police officer by day, Austin Probst is a local farmer and videographer during the rest of his week.

Videos are subtitled with the segments included. For example, the channel's first official video includes a morning milking, cleaning free stall barn, raking out free stalls and unloading and stacking hay.
