'It's going to be a diverse crowd': Farm Music Festival draws in agriculture and music fans

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Agriculture and music come together in Milwaukee as the second annual farm music festival is underway this weekend.

The collaborative farm has been partially redesigned to be an educational facility, food production facility and now a music venue. It features hip-hop and electronic artists from around the country. Music fans can explore the urban farm while music is played on two stages.

Organizers say the event attracts a lot of different types of people. 

"The hip-hop and electronic artists all have their own followings so there is going to be a younger crowd following all them. but there's a crowd that's been following this place and that's been involved with the urban farm that will be here to support it so it's going to be a diverse crowd," event organizer Tyler Schmitt said.

If you missed it today, don't worry. The Farm Music Festival runs until Sunday, Oct. 3 at the Collaborative Farm.
