Damn Sam
This is the famous Harvest Festival which is a benefit for, and meant to raise awareness about, reforming marijuana laws. It began in the apple orchards around Lembo Lake (Murphy's Law, Disco Biscuits, Col. Bruce and more) in Modena, NY in 1995. In 1997 we moved to Earlton Hill Family Campground, in Earlton, NY (which featured Max Creek, Vassar Clements, Buddy Cage, and the Ominous Seapods among others) In 1998 the festival was held at the Logging Camp (Pine Mountain Reserve - Garth Hudson, Buddy Cage) in Johnsburg, NY and finally landed in 1999 at Echo Lake (David Nelson Band, Merl Saunders, Deep Banana Blackout). We called Echo Lake home for five years and went on the move again. 2004, our 10th annual was held at the Moose River Park, in Lyonsdale and featured Richie Havens, The Persuasions, Melvin Seals and was an amazing time! 2005 was no different, at The Tall Pines Campground in Bainbridge, with the New Riders of the Purple Sage, Project Object, Tony Vacca and more. 2006 found us at an amazing site called Camp Minglewood, where Particle, Vince Herman, Jen Durkin, Mistic Bowie and all of you brought Harvest Fest to a new level! 2007 we were back at Minglewood with Fishbone, M1, Murphy's Law, Jen Durkin, Tony Vacca and all of you! 2008 is being planned now and is sure to be one of the Fest's not to miss!
