David Senter, founder of the American Agriculture Movement that mobilized tractorcades in Washington in the 1970s, speaks at Rally for Resilience: Farmers for Climate Action. The rally took place on March 7, 2023, in Washington, DC, in Freedom Plaza.

"I'm so encouraged looking out at this crowd at the young faces. Some of us wondered who's going to continue the fight after my generation. It looks to me like there are lots of young people that are never going to give up and never going to give in on that fight." – David Senter

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, Dave Matthews and Margo Price host an annual festival to raise funds to support Farm Aid’s work with family farmers and to inspire people to choose family farm food. For more than 35 years, Farm Aid, with the support of the artists who contribute their performances each year, has raised more than $64 million to support programs that help farmers thrive, expand the reach of the Good Food Movement, take action to change the dominant system of industrial agriculture and promote food from family farms.
