LINDSBORG - Saline County's Peterson Farm Bros are celebrating 10 years of making parody music videos about farming with a free concert Saturday evening.

The concert is scheduled for 7 p.m. Saturday at The Heights, located just outside Lindsborg at 2951 13th Avenue.

Ten years ago this month, the Peterson Farm Bros, who farm with their families near Assaria, filmed and posted their first music video parody, "I'm Farming and I Grow It." The song was a viral hit on YouTube and received more than five million views in over 200 countries in two weeks, according to information on the brothers' website.

Since that time, the trio has made 18 music video parodies and many other videos that that combined have more that 150 million views on social media.

On Saturday, there will be chairs available for up to 500 people, however, those attending also are welcome to take their own lawn chairs. Bottled water and some other concessions will be for sale, but there will not be a meal during the event, according to information on the Peterson Farm Bros Facebook page.

According to the event post on the Peterson Farm Bros Facebook page, the schedule for Saturday is as follows.

●Optional tour of main farmstead at 5 p.m. The tour will leave from The Heights for an approximate 15 minute drive to the farm. "We normally charge for these tours but this will be a shortened version and will be a free will donation!" the Peterson Farm Bros noted.

●Meet and greet/merchandise sales with Peterson family from 6-7 p.m. at The Heights.

●Peterson Farm Bros will perform parodies and speak a little from 7-8:30 p.m.

●Meet and greet afterward for those who didn't do the one before and then finish the night with a few fireworks!
