Farm Aid 2007 in New York City

UPDATE: See Neil Young News: Farm Aid 2007 for latest info.

Farm Aid 2007 will be held in New York City on September 9. "Farm Aid 2007: A Homegrown Festival" will be held on Randall's Island in the East River between Manhattan, the Bronx and Queens on September 9 and will feature Farm Aid board members Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews, John Mellencamp and Neil Young.

"Farm Aid is coming to New York because your enthusiasm for family farm food is keeping family farmers on the land," Nelson told reporters.
