The Associated Press reports Farm Aid founder Willie Nelson [a native Texan] says the organization will give $30,000 in grants to groups that help family farmers in areas of Texas and Louisiana hit hard by Hurricanes Ike and Gustav.
Farm Aid says more money will be distributed in the near future, "as the extent of hurricane damage becomes clearer."
Farm Aid is the longest-running benefit concert series in the U.S. It's raised more than $30 million for family farmers since its first show in 1985.
