I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm. . .

Woodstock's Famous Farm on the Market

The famous farm near the alfalfa field that drew 400,000 people to Woodstock for three days of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll is up for sale.

The asking price: $8 million.

Roy Howard, the current owner, is packing it in after years of tangling with local officials over permits for reunion gatherings to mark the 1969, three-day Woodstock music festival that helped ignite a generation.

Up for sale is the 2,000-square-foot house that belonged to dairy farmer Max Yasgur, along with a larger farmhouse, a barn and 103 bucolic acres about 80 miles north of New York City.

Included are a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, double convection ovens, Viking stove, antique soapstone sink, 22-foot vaulted ceilings and expansive views of the Pocono Mountains. There's also a double whirlpool tub, steam shower and bidet.

Need to win the lottery now. Not only is it part of musical history, it would make a great place to live on the East Coast and visit all the extended family/mob of friends out that way.

. . . And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

Yasgur's farm! Their dairy provided all of the milk and such for the summer camp I attended.
