Farm Aid

Uncommon card · No. 193546

Farm Aid is an American benefit concert and non-profit organization founded in 1985 by musicians Willie Nelson, Neil Young, and John Mellencamp. The goal of the benefit concert is to provide financial relief to family farmers in the United States, to improve agricultural conditions in soil and water, and to support domestic, locally owned farms as they compete against large-scale agribusiness. The concept for a farm benefit was originally proposed by Bob Dylan at Live Aid, which inspired Nelson, Young, and Mellencamp to create what is now Farm Aid. Farm Aid is one of the longest-running benefit concerts in the United States, spanning over four decades.
