It first appeared in Episode 153, when the brother started down a rabbit hole of knowledge known only to the Farmers... They know everything about agricultural shit...and Benghazi. A couple of episodes later famous author and friend of the show, Liz Gilbert, first contributed to the show by sending in a piece of Farm Wisdom.[2]

“They're tricky, farmers. That's the secret about farm wisdom: they're either telling you something that will enrich your life, like heliotropism and bee dances, or they'll give you a little riddle. They'll play a trick, they're like bridge trolls.”
— Griffin[src]
“How do you know if your corn is growing at an appropriate rate? This old saying:
Knee-high by the 4th of July!”
— Farm Wisdom[3]

In March of 2025, Farm Wisdom returned to the show for the first time since 2019 in an ungodly combo with Haunted Doll Watch: Farm Haunted.
