Farming In NY

by Christina M. Rau

When you think of NYC, you probably do not think of farmland. You probably think of skyscrapers and taxis. That makes sense because that’s what the city is. Still, NYC does not ignore our rural neighbors. We embrace them.

On Sunday Sept. 9, Farm Aid 2007 comes to town. Enjoy music by Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, The Allman Brothers Band, and Counting Crows. Other acts will be there and these guys will switch it up and perform together and make great music.

Randall’s Island will be rockin. Get your tickets soon.
