For the first time ever, Saratoga Performing Arts Center will host FarmAid! An event to bring a wide variety of musicians, farmers and fans to help keep family farmers on their land! The event is set to take place on September 21, so get your tickets today!
Each year, FarmAid Board Members Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews headline a Farm Aid Concert- and SPAC is set to host this year’s!
The ultimate goal of FarmAid is to raise awareness about the loss of family farms and to raise funds to keep farm families on their land. They are committed to increasing the number of people buying this good farm food.
For over 28 years FarmAid has worked hard at providing effective support services to farms in crisis. They have been effective in doing so through the annual concert event that features family farm food and unites farmers, artists and concerned citizens. FarmAid has successfully created a market for the farmers by giving more people the opportunity to access their family farm food.
All of the FarmAid Board of Directors will be preforming and many other artists that will be announced soon. Don’t miss out on a chance to hear some great music and help out a great cause at the same time.
Some other artists that will perform are:
- Amos Lee
- Kacey Musgraves
- Toad the Wet Sprocket
- Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real
- Bahamas
- JD & The Straight Shot
- Carlene Carter
- Pegi Young & The Survivors
These are all performers who donate their time to the longest running benefit concert series in America.
Tickets went on sale to the public on Friday, June 28, at 10 a.m. Ticket prices range from $45 to $150. Each dollar goes a long way so don’t forget to get yours!
