Synopsis: This is a celebration of the 20th anniversary of Farm Aid that commemorates the struggles and contributions of family farmers in America and the more than three hundred artists that have performed on the Farm Aid stage. Willie Nelson organized the first Farm Aid concert in 1985 and hoped it would be a one-time event that would ensure the continued survival of our valuable commodity, the farming family.
