Farm Aid, the long-running benefit concert started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp, is returning live in September after last year’s concert went virtual because of the pandemic.
Nelson, Young and Mellencamp are all performing on Sept. 25 in Hartford, Connecticut, along with Dave Matthews, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers, Margo Price and Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real.
The first Farm Aid concert was organized in 1985 to help family farms that were struggling to survive and to promote the purchase of locally grown and family farm food. The nonprofit has raised tens of millions of dollars over the years to support farmers.
