in attempt to deepen our commitment to local farm/food concerns, we are working in conjunction with farmers from virginia to central pennsylvania to produce a series of events celebrating and publicizing community supported agriculture (CSAs), farm markets and other local, sustainable initiatives.

this tour, which will take us from september 26 through october 11, is anchored by six concerts to be held at various community-supported farms.  each concert will be preceded by a potluck and various other activities on the grounds.

in addition to the larger concerts, we will be popping into various markets in the area and doing some impromptu performances.

this endeavor is an extension of our mission to keep a focus on community and localism as we tour the country.  to see the complete mission statement, click “mission” at the top of the site.

the dates and cities of the farm concerts are listed below.  since most of these are private farms, attendance will be free but very limited.  if you are going to be in the area and are interested in attending, please get in touch with us at info@hootsandhellmouth.com and we’ll get you some more details.
