With Farley Center Farmer Ian Aley

Come visit the food forests at the Farley Center with Farmer Ian Aley! This tour is in conjunction with the North American Agroforest Conference which is taking place June 28-July 2.

The food forest includes newly planted areas through the Wisconsin Food Forests initiative as well as more mature areas featuring a range of planting styles: guilds and contours and a mix of plants from the well known: apples, pears, and grapes, to the lesser known: paw paw, cornelian cherry, honeyberry, quince, serviceberry, currants, and many more under and overstory plants.

The Farley Center is a certified organic farm where many growers rent land and share common resources like tractors, irrigation lines, and coolers.

All proceeds will go to the musicians

Come join us for an in person concert with Wisconsin Folksinger, Storyteller and Educator Skip Jones at the Farley Center under the Bur Oak Welcoming Area (BOWA ).

About Skip Jones:
For over 40 years I have been sharing songs and stories with audiences of all types and sizes.

Some songs come from the giants of Americana music – giants such as Woody Guthrie. Others are from some of the great folk singers I have had the privilege of working with over the years, such as my old friend and mentor U. Utah Phillips, Guy Carawan, Bill Stanes and Larry Long. On occasion, I may also sneak in a few songs I have written myself.

The stories come from my travels around the world as a navy veteran and performer, and from my own back yard surrounded by members of the Mohican Nation in Northeast Wisconsin.

They also come from the lives and observations of thousands of “regular” yet very special people I have entertained, from ages 3 to 108.

I am a musical activist for many issues from clean water to respecting each other, and my convictions work their way into my music and stories.

Beyond my own performances I have organized and directed festivals and concert series, introduced House Concerts to the Midwest and beyond, provided high-quality sound engineering for folk festivals and cultural events, and have produced and recorded albums for local, regional and national artists.

See: www.skipjones.net

We encourage attendees to come early or stay late and take a walk through the Natural Path Sanctuary and Farley Center farms.Please bring your own blanket, chair, food and drinks to the concert. Please bring your masks as well.

We are offering an informational tour with Farley Center Board Vice Chair Jeanne Meier at 11:00 – one hour before the concert.
