It doesn't quite have the name recognition of Neil Young/Willie Nelson's Farm Aid (yet) but Luke Bryan's annual Farm Tour is still doing pretty well with a similar end in mind. The charitable run will hit the road once again during 2014 with a similar lineup in tow (from Rolling Stone). 

The country star will once again take Cole Swindell and the Peach Pickers along with him for the tour, once again putting special emphasis on his home state of Georgia. Not only do those three acts hail from the state, the Farm Tour will make three stops throughout during the run, one more than any other state down south. Other openers will include Chancie Neal (from Louisiana...gotta mix things up) and DJ Rock

The Farm Tour of course appears at local farms (for the most part) and proceeds from the run go toward scholarships for students from farming families. Among the schools benefitting is Georgia Southern University, Bryan's alum.
