Tickets are available at the door at the new Entertainment Pavilion for $65, $50 and $25.

Local artists Chaparral will perform during a pre-concert event to celebrate the release of their first CD. Stealing Angels takes the stage at 6:30 p.m.

Blake Shelton kicked off the concert series Tuesday evening and surprised the audience with a performance by Miranda Lambert. Thousands of country music fans enjoyed a great evening of music.

“The goal is to further the message of California agriculture and its multi-billion-dollar contribution to the state’s economy,” Beachy explained. “Family-owned farms and ranches across the state are economic engines for most small to medium-sized communities. By supporting our farmers and ranchers we keep thousands of other support services going strong and keep people employed.”

Suggestions of how the proceeds from the event will be allocated to promote agriculture awareness will come from a group of agricultural businesses and support industries, from trucking to banking, all working with the International Agri-Center, a 501(c)3 organization.
“The International Agri-Center’s mission from inception has been to support agriculture through education, by linking buyer and seller, and by sharing important agricultural information,” Beachy added. “Now we can support California ag and ag families through great country music!”
