For two and a half decades, the Farm Aid concert has raised money for family farms and promoted local, organic food. All of the usual suspects are there in 2009, including Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp, but also featuring sets from Wilco, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, Jason Mraz and Gretchen Wilson.

Want to watch the show? You can do that. At 5 p.m. ET today, a link to the webcast will be available on the Farm Aid website. You can also check out live updates on the Farm Aid Twitter account.

Want to join the cause? You can do that, too. Farm Aid has gone 2.0 and you can include an "I Help Keep Family Farmers On Their Land" badge on your blog, MySpace or Facebook.

It is very sad to me that you have allowed Horizon to be a part of Farm Aid.
They are not "organic" and they are not a family farm. They do have big money. Have the bought you?
No longer a supporter, I am very sorry to say.

I agree horizon sucks as does Silk that was a sponsor this year, but that does not erase how awesome FARM AID is..i went, and i do support the cause to save American farmers. As an organic farmer Jeremyah, you should have gone yesterday to voice your thoughts and meet other amazing organic farmers...to drop support as you did is not the answer.

horizon has over 450 farmers..work to create honesty in their label and hold every one of those farmers to a higher standard.
