Below are the standard presentations we give at an event. These presentations can be changed in order to fit what you are looking for, so please feel free to suggest something different!
Peterson Farm Brothers (Standard Presentation)
2 of the Peterson Farm Brothers (or just Greg)
An entertaining, inspirational, educational, and motivational program for people of all ages and all backgrounds. The program includes how we got started making videos, where all they’ve taken us, the power of communicating through social media, and the lessons we've learned about advocating for agriculture online. We will perform several of our parody music videos throughout the presentation and will be more than happy to stick around afterward for pictures, autographs, and conversations with attendees.
The presentation is often titled: "Advocating for Agriculture Online"
Length: 45 minutes – 1 Hour plus Meet and Greet afterward!
Peterson Farm Brothers Behind the Scenes Workshop

From the behind the scenes of making videos to explaining how they decide what, when, where, and how to post content, the brothers will try to address all of your questions about how they are able to do what they do. They will also share tips of how to foster conversations and respond to negative comments online.
Length: 45 minutes- 1 Hour

Online Presentation
(All 3 of the Peterson Farm Brothers)
Our standard presentation, but delivered online through an app such as Zoom!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to book all of you? How do you manage to speak, travel and farm?
Since we have a farm to operate, social media platforms to create for and maintain, and families to spend time with, it can be hard for us to leave home, especially in busier months! Typically, we leave one brother at home with our Dad to keep the farm going. You can book either one of us or two of us. The fees we charge to speak are based on time commitment, distance traveled, and the overall convenience of the event. Please email Greg (email found above) for a customized quote for your event. If you do have a limited budget, it is much cheaper to book Greg by himself and avoid paying the travel costs of more than 1 brother.
Will your program fit my audience? Do you perform your songs?
The presentations can be catered to any group or event to fit the situation better. We give the presentations listed to groups ranging from older farmers, to business professionals, to high school groups, to elementary students and younger children. We try to make our presentation fit the specific audience! We are also up to suggestions from you and what you think the audience needs to hear from us. We almost always include performing several of our music videos unless we are told otherwise.
What are your A/V needs?
Handheld and/or Wireless Microphones, Audio Speakers, Projector, Projector Screen. We will bring a laptop to plug into the projector/audio system. We will bring adaptors (VGA/HDMI, Headphone to 1/4 inch audio) to fit our computer to the projector and audio.
Our event is outdoors, do you require a screen and projector?
While we do prefer having a screen to play the videos on, if an event is held outdoors, it is not always feasible to have a projector and screen. For these types of events (such as county fairs), we mainly perform our songs and speak casually in between them in a similar way to our normal presentation.
Where can I find promotional material for events?
Pictures for promotional material can be found here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1R8IZuKlEIVlZ1iT3Te1RzgQISYWwN_3c?usp=sharing
Do you require a contract or deposit?
Yes, unless agreed upon otherwise. We have a standard contract that we use.
Do we need to book your travel or hotel rooms?
Unless agreed upon otherwise, we book our own travel and our own hotel rooms.
Who will be our main point of contact?
Greg’s phone number is attached to all the emails he sends. He is the main contact.
Testimonials
“Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. has had the opportunity to partner with the Peterson Farm Brothers on multiple occasions. Working with them was a great experience. Not only were they flexible to collaborate with, they were true professionals and of course, a big hit with our customers!” – Cortney Malter, Boehringer Ingelheim
“Greg’s passion for the agriculture industry is evident when he is delivering his presentation on agvocacy. Converting every day farming chores to popular radio tunes is a great way to connect with those individuals who are not familiar with the agriculture industry. And at the same time, his entertaining delivery shines a unique light on the dedication it takes to produce food for the world.” – Sue Exner, Farm Credit Canada
“The Peterson Bros provided an invigorating look into the future of agriculture in America. Their enthusiastic and unique way of presenting life on the farm was both entertaining and educational to the audience at our National Dealer Meeting.” – Dan Bratt, Great Plains Manufacturing
“The Peterson Farm Brothers performance at AGRITECHNICA was a big motivation for the young farmers here in Germany. Now they know they have to tell their stories before the others do it.” Rainer Winter, DLG Germany
“Greg was great to work with on setting things up for Cayden’s Farm Safety Day. The Peterson Farm Bros did a great job speaking to and entertaining the grade school kids. Their parodies are easy to love and definitely had the whole auditorium singing right along with them! Afterwards, they were very sweet and stuck around to speak to the kids and sign autographs. Their presentation was a great way to end the day. Great job, boys!” Jamie Dunstan, Cayden’s Farm Safety Day
“Greg Peterson captivated both our young 4-H members, leaders, and parents at our recent 4-H Leadership Day. He motivated and encouraged them to get involved, become leaders in their community and to make a difference. The agriculture community is blessed to have Greg and his family promoting and educating those who do not know where their food comes from. It is important they know on many levels in order for us to continue feeding the world.” Janell Percy, Desert Sandblasters 4-H Leader, Indio, CA
