Farm Aid coming in September
Published Thursday, July 17, 2008 at 08:00 AM
Farm Aid 2008 Presented by Whole Foods Market and Horizon Organic will feature headliners Willie Nelson, Mellencamp, Neil Young, and Dave Matthews, plus other top artists to be announced. The annual benefit concert will celebrate music and good food, and will feature hands-on activities in the HOMEGROWN Village. That activity will showcase the direct connection between who is growing our food and what we eat every day.
Since its beginning, Farm Aid has traveled the country, staging annual concerts and supporting local organizations working to strengthen family farms. Farm Aid builds the Good Food Movement by connecting people with family farmers who are increasing the supply of local, humanely raised, sustainable and organic food.
