Tickets are now on sale for the Delaware County Farm Bureau’s “Benefit in the Barn, A Symphony on the Farm.”

This celebration of agriculture and music happens Saturday, Aug. 20, with all proceeds benefiting partners of the Delaware County Hunger Alliance.

For the second year in a row, guests will enjoy a fun and unique concert along with dinner, Ohio beer, wine and spirits, and surprises throughout the night, organizers say.

The event takes place on Hardscrabble Farms at 2514 Skinner Road, Delaware. The farm has been operated by the Skinner family for more than a century.

Guests are encouraged bring a lawn chair for open seating in the barnyard, organizers say. Tents will be erected to provide cover in the event of inclement weather.
