Met the legendary Willie Nelson tonight at Farm Aid. For 40 years, he has championed family farmers and tirelessly advocated for our rural communities. And he’s still going strong at 92!

How a Bob Dylan moment 40 years ago sparked decades of pop philanthropy Crop prices were crashing in 1985, with bank foreclosures wiping out family farms at alarming rates and pushing farmer suicides to record levels.

Bob Worth Wants to Remind Farmers Help is a Phone Call Away – Farm Aid Minnesota farmer Bob Worth talks about making it through the 1980s Farm Crisis and how spreading the word about mental health is vitally important.

“Farmers are a unique breed, and very, very private people. We love to help our neighbors, but we don’t like talking about our own issues, especially health issues.” — Bob Worth, MN farmer

He wants to remind farmers that help is a phone call away.

All of us at Farm Aid are thrilled that artist Shepard Fairey is bringing his distinctive artistic vision to the occasion of marking Farm Aid's 40th anniversary!

Love this shout-out that @missmargoprice gives to getting seeds at Farm Aid. We're planning to have another seed swap at #FarmAid40, so you can grow veggies next spring and think of the good times in Minneapolis.

In this episode of Against the Grain's new series on artists and activism, we zero in on a subject that has come up in all of the previous episodes – artists catching flak for taking a public stand on an issue.

Cover of Tougher Than Leather (Willie Nelson album)

One of my kids just brought up the topic of country artists with songs touching on the theme of reincarnation — he mentioned Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Tyler Childers, Roger Miller, and the Highwaymen, and I pointed out Iris Dement and this entire LP (much loved by me) by Willie Nelson. But who else?

How Bob Dylan’s Live Aid Remark — ‘Pay The Mortgages on Some of the Farms’ — Sparked 40 Years of Activism By Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp & More Here's how Bob Dylan’s remarks at Live Aid about paying farm mortgages sparked the creation of Willie Nelson's Farm Aid concerts.

Thank you Billboard for diving into how a remark from Bob Dylan at Live Aid led to Farm Aid's creation and how we're still here working for farmers 40 year later.

Button with a FarmAid logo and Willie Nelson quote. "We don't run, don't compromise, don't quit. Never do."

Allison Russell on Soothing Her Newborn Daughter With Willie Nelson’s ‘Stardust’ The three-time Grammy nominee talks to us live from Luck, Texas, about definitive covers, Billie Holiday, and building her family with Willie records playing in the background.

It does! That’s a lovely way of putting it

PS in case you’re interested the deep dive on Stardust / Willie Nelson & the Billie Holiday connection is on this podcast/ transcript below 🌟

Hello Austin! I’m helping spread the word about this event/fundraiser (for the Fromholz documentary under production). Message me if you’d like more information.

I have no idea how @onebywillie.bsky.social and @soundopinions.bsky.social hooked up, but seeing them cross in my podcast feed is like finding out my college and high school best friends have started hanging out together.

@mauimom.bsky.social this was fun to see of your man and Trigger without signatures @willienelsonmusic.bsky.social
