FARM AID CONCERTS
Since 1985, Farm Aid concerts have brought together the greatest artists in American music. Of all the concerts for causes that began in the mid- 80s, Farm Aid remains the only one that has the unique and unwavering commitment of its original founders. Nearly 500 artists have played the Farm Aid stage to support Farm Aid’s work to keep family farmers on the land and inspire people to choose family-farmed food.
