Welcome to our brand new series, Feel Good Friday, in which we'll be bringing you a selection of stories, videos, GIFs, memes, pictures and more, to put you in the best mood for the weekend!
This week, we're taking a look at the story of a group of farmers, who collaborated to harvest a crop for their neighbour who is currently fighting against cancer.
With stage 4 skin cancer, Larry Yockey, the owner of a 12 hundred acre farm in Ritzville, Washington, is no longer able to work his fields. So, when 60 farmers in the State came out to help harvest the crop on his behalf, he couldn't believe their generous nature.
In just six hours, the farmers were able to complete work that would ordinarily take up to three weeks. They had been planning to help Yockey harvest the wheat for months, and were excited when they finally got the opportunity.
"I'm just glad to be here and help where I can and, where I'm needed," said one of the farmers, Mike Doyle.
"It's not describable, the gratitude I have for what's going on," Yockey commented.
Check out the story as reported by CBS Evening News below:

Stranger helps man make the birth of his son
Sergeant Seth Craven was close to missing out on the birth of his son in Charleston, West Virginia, but made it thanks to the kindness of a complete stranger.
The 26-year-old was in Afghanistan, serving with the West Virginia National Guard, when he got the call that his wife was going to have a caesarian birth. He flew to Kuwait upon hearing the news, on to Philadelphia, but Mother Nature meant that storms grounded his next flight and forced him to stay in a hotel.
With a series of delays, it looked as though Craven was going to have to miss out on the birth of his son, but when his story reached Charlene Vickers, she offered to help.
Parked at the Philadelphia airport, she told Craven: "I'm getting to West Virginia tonight, come hell or high water. So are you willing to join this crazy party of ours?"
The pair enjoyed an eight hour drive, and Craven made it home to his wife the night before his nine pound, eight ounce son Cooper was born. All Vickers asked for in return was some pictures of the new arrival.
Florida parents celebrate kids returning to school
A bunch of funny mothers from Florida decided to celebrate their children returning to school, posting a series of pictures online whilst many of their fellow parents droned on about how they would miss their little bundles of joy.
Speaking to the Sun Sentinel, Shawne Genua, 38, said: "Between us four, we have 18 kids. They've been home since May. We are so ready for them to go back. We got the idea to do the photo because other people were posting sad pictures of their kids going back to school on Facebook. We were like, 'Why are you sad? We are FREE again!'"
