www.FarmAid.org still has some great Farm Aid Gear from last year’s spectacular Farm Aid Concert in St. Louis, Missouri.  Like this Navy Blue Farm Aid Tractor Hat. 

This hat only costs $6.80; yeah, I thought it was a typo, too, but it’s not.  They only have 24 hats left, so get a couple one for a friend and one for yourself!    The perfect gift and nice little pick me up for you.

And here’s the handsome Farm Aid Hotline and Farmer Resource Network Coordinator Joel modelling the hat:

Anvil Knitwear announced today that it will be a sponsor and the official t-shirt supplier of Farm Aid 2009 Presented by Horizon Organic in St. Louis on October 4 at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. Farm Aid is a nonprofit organization that has raised nearly $36 million to promote a strong and resilient family farm system of agriculture.

Farm Aid’s mission of sustaining family farms is extremely important to us. We are the largest domestic buyer of organic cotton grown in the United States, and most of our organic cotton comes from family farms,” said Anthony Corsano, Anvil Knitwear CEO. “We have made a commitment to U.S. organic cotton farmers that we will buy only U.S.-grown organic cotton for our AnvilOrganic® t-shirt line as long as there is enough of it to supply our needs, and our new AnvilSustainable(TM) t-shirt supports farmers that are transitioning their fields to organic. Hopefully it will encourage other farmers to do the same.”

Farm Aid is offering tees from Anvil’s Eco Collection as part of its fundraising initiatives on its Web site, www.farmaid.org, and at the concert at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater.

Farm Aid board members Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews headline the event, along with Wilco, Jason Mraz, Gretchen Wilson, Jamey Johnson, Billy Joe Shaver, Phosphorescent and more.

Anvil® will demonstrate how its AnvilSustainable(TM) and AnvilOrganic® tees are made featuring a working model of Eli Whitney’s original cotton gin at an on-site booth as part of the HOMEGROWN Village at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater on Sunday afternoon from 12 to 6 p.m.

Anvil Knitwear, Inc., a socially and environmentally responsible manufacturer of sportswear and accessories, is a leader in the sustainable apparel industry with its AnvilOrganic®, AnvilRecycled(TM) and AnvilSustainable(TM) brands. Anvil was recently ranked the world’s sixth-largest organic program and the largest domestic purchaser of U.S.-grown certified organic cotton. Anvil offers 15 affordable eco styles made from a variety of fibers such as certified organic cotton, transitional cotton, recycled cotton, and recycled PET bottles and blends in addition to its over 90 traditional styles.

Farm Aid’s mission is to build a vibrant, family farm-centered system of agriculture in America. Farm Aid artists and board members Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews host an annual concert to raise funds to support Farm Aid’s work with family farmers and to inspire people to choose family-farmed food. Since 1985, Farm Aid, with the support of the artists who contribute their performances each year, has raised nearly $36 million to support programs that help farmers thrive, create and strengthen connections between farmers and eaters, take action to change the dominant system of industrial agriculture and promote food from family farms.

Hey Linda,
 
Pappy’s Smokehouse is St. Louis’ #1 BBQ joint.  Their cooking team has won several blue ribbons at Memphis in May BBQ Cookoff.  Their food is AWESOME!  The owner, Mike Emerson, is a huge Willie Nelson fan.  He gave us a tie-dyed t-shirt to give to Willie when we visited the restaurant back in May before the Willie Nelson Family show at Effingham’s Rosebud Theater.  We got the shirt to Willie in Lake Tahoe last month. 
 
Pappy’s Smokehouse is planning on donating all proceeds from the sale of the t-shirt to FarmAid.  Just wanted to share this with you and tell you about these wonderful people and their BBQ!
 
Thanks,
Lane and Katrina Smith
