John Deere Hosts Benefit Concert For Farm Rescue

John Deere Hosts Benefit Concert For Farm Rescue

Since 2005, Farm Rescue has helped farmers when unforeseeable challenges threaten their farm. And on Dec. 9, John Deere is coming together with country music artists for a virtual concert to celebrate the non-for-profit, share its stories, and raise money for future assistance for farmers in need. 

“Whether it’s illness, injury or natural disaster, Farm Rescues helps farmers wherever they are,” says Laurel Caes, public relations manager at John Deere. “The Farm Must Go On concert is a free virtual event to hear from country music artists and celebrate the resiliency of farmers.”

The following country music artists will perform during The Farm Must Go On by John Deere, which is open to the general public: 

  • Dustin Lynch 
  • Maddie & Tae 
  • Mickey Guyton 
  • Travis Denning 
  • Tyler Farr
     

“There’s an opportunity to make donation, enter a sweepstakes to win a virtual experience with one of the artists,” Caes explains. “All donations go back directly to Farm Rescue.” 

Enter for a chance to win by donating a minimum of $10.

The concert will be broadcast live from the Brooklyn Bowl in Nashville. The Farm Must Go On by John Deere will stream live on YouTube on Wednesday, Dec. 9, 2020 starting at 8 p.m. EST.
