Willie Nelson Shares New Nelson/Dylan Tune for Family Farmers

  • A Greener World

Willie Nelson_006Willie Nelson appeared on CNN yesterday, talking about Farm Aid and the struggle of America’s family farms.  In this clip, he also performs a new song to be premiered at Farm Aid, which he co-authored with Bob Dylan.  Animal Welfare staff members and three Animal Welfare Approved farmers are on hand at Farm Aid this weekend to spread the word about the benefits of pasture-based farming and high-welfare standards.  Hope to see you at the Homegrown Village this afternoon and at tonight’s Farm Aid Eve dinner where all of the pork and beef served will be from AWA farmers Fudge Family Farms (pork) and American Grass Fed Beef.  Photo:  Paul Natkin/Photo Reserve Inc. 2008
