Farm Aid

Farm Aid is a nonprofit organization founded in 1985 by musicians Willie Nelson, Neil Young, and John Mellencamp to support independent farmers and promote sustainable agriculture. It raises funds through concerts and donations to help farmers facing economic challenges, advocate for fair policies, and encourage environmentally friendly farming practices. Farm Aid also provides educational resources to improve farm viability and preserve rural communities. Its mission centers on ensuring that family farmers can continue their vital work, producing food sustainably and maintaining the health of farmland and local economies.
