As Willie Nelson, Neil Young, and Dave Matthews head to New York City to play Farm Aid 2007 on September 9, a tour of another kind will be making its way to the yearly concert. Sustainable Table's cross-country road trip to promote eating local, ecofriendly food--and to find the best pie in the United States--will culminate at the 23rd annual fundraiser for family farms. Even more fittingly, the nonprofit's tour bus is powered by biodiesel, one of Farm Aid cofounder Nelson's longtime causes (he even has his own brand, BioWillie fuel) and the subject of his new book, On the Clean Road Again: Biodiesel and the Future of the Family Farm.
