FARM AID 2013
SEPTEMBER 21, 2013
SARATOGA SPRINGS, NEW YORK
"Farm Aid 2013 was held at Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC), in Saratoga Springs, New York, on September 21. A crowd of more than 25,000 enjoyed performances by Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp, and Dave Matthews with Tim Reynolds. Additional artists included Jack Johnson, Amos Lee, Jamey Johnson, Kacey Musgraves, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Sasha Dobson, Carlene Carter, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, Bahamas, Pegi Young & the Survivors, Jesse Lenat, Insects vs Robots, The Blackwood Quartet, Will Dailey, and The Parlor. All of the artists donated their time and travel expenses. Ninety-four-year-old Pete Seeger was our surprise guest, joining Willie, John, Neil and Dave onstage for “This Land Is Your Land.†The entire audience rose to its feet and participated in a sing-along in one of his last public performances.
Our HOMEGROWN Concessions served local, organic and family-farm foods to concertgoers and backstage, including cider and baked goods to concertgoers, and, as always, all-natural ham steaks from Patchwork Family Farms from Missouri. Farm Aid 2013 featured the HOMEGROWN Youthmarket, a farmers market coordinated by GrowNYC Youth Market involving local FFA youth and farmers. In the HOMEGROWN Village, more than 50 food and farm groups offered concert-goers hands-on interactive experiences with soil, water, food, renewable energy and family farmers."
