Our Third Anniversary
Saturday, August 8 · 5 to 8 PM · A benefit for Blue Ridge Music Trails of North Carolina
Three years ago, we opened the doors at Amaris Farms. To mark the occasion, we are doing the thing we love most: gathering people on the lawn, under the trees, for an evening of live mountain music.
On Saturday, August 8, from 5 to 8 PM, a bluegrass band will set up on the farm and play the kind of music these mountains have carried for generations. Bring a chair or a blanket, settle in with friends and neighbors, and let the evening unfold the way summer evenings should. There will be barbecue, a place to gather, and the sound of banjo and fiddle carrying across the fields as the light goes long and gold.
A Benefit for the Music That Makes These Mountains
This is a benefit evening. We are raising money for Blue Ridge Music Trails of North Carolina, a nonprofit that works to preserve and celebrate the traditional bluegrass and old-time music of our region. Their work keeps this music alive in the places it came from, across the mountains and foothills of Western North Carolina.
We are asking each guest for a $50 donation to Blue Ridge Music Trails. Your donation helps cover food and drink for the evening and supports their work carrying this tradition forward. This is a benefit concert with a donation ask, not a ticketed show, and it is not a free one. Every gift goes toward the music and the mission behind it. You can give by QR code at the farm or drop your donation in the jar on your way in.
