Back to the Garden

Sick of the Wall Street grind and want to live hassle free for a pittance?  Max Yasgur’s legendary farm in on sale in upstate New York. Not in Woodstock, but Bethel. And since we are not miracle workers, we can’t help you you out with a mortgage. But we can point you in the right direction…

Inside an old wood-beamed farmhouse with picture windows on a hillside here, the chirp of the telephone pierced the air roughly every five minutes Thursday morning with another inquiry about the sale of “Yasgur’s Farm,” a house and a piece of land that the 1969 Woodstock music festival made famous, at least among members of the scattered tribe of a certain time.......The house and barn and acreage around it, for instance, are actually more than a mile away from the place where Woodstock, the event, took place. It was all of a piece in 1969, but parts have since been sold off. New York Times

“I’m going on down to Yasgur’s Farm, I’m going to join in a rock ’n’ roll band. I’m going to camp out on the land, and set my soul free.”
