Mount Grace Land Trust and Stone Cow Brewery are teaming up once again to host their fourth annual Fields & Forest Forever Music Fest to celebrate local conservation on Saturday, September 12, 2026. This year’s festival carries special significance as Mount Grace celebrates its 40th anniversary of conserving and stewarding the farms, forests, and waterways that define Central and Western Massachusetts.
This year’s lineup for Fields & Forest Forever Music Fest includes performances by Hayden Blount, a rising artist from Savannah, Tennessee, known for his authentic storytelling, roots-country sound, and heartfelt songs, and local legends The Cropdusters. The outdoor concert will run from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM on the scenic fields of Stone Cow Brewery in Barre, Massachusetts. Proceeds from ticket and merchandise sales will benefit Mount Grace, helping to protect the region’s working lands, wildlife habitat, and natural resources for future generations. In addition to live music, the event will feature local food trucks and a wide selection of Stone Cow Brewery’s farm-crafted beverages. Representatives from Mount Grace will be on hand at the event to talk with attendees and share information about their work.
