This years celebrates the 30th anniversary of Farm Aid: a benefit concert originally set up by Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp and Neil Young to increase awareness of the importance of family farms, as well as entertain crowds with country, blues and rock music and a variety of stars! Once again Dave Matthews joins the trio that made it all possible to host a fun-filled day of phenomenal music. There will also be family farm-identified, local and organic foods to delight the senses!
“The legacy of Farm Aid is twofold: in the change we’ve made in our farm and food system, and in the rich musical record of concerts held since 1985. The list of artists who have played on the Farm Aid stage is a who’s who of the best artists of our time.” — John Mellencamp
