As part of the ongoing Concerts in the Colony, Little Texas, with special guests the Peterson Farm Brothers, will be appearing in historic Bishop Hill IL on Saturday July 8, 2023. These FREE family-fun performances will be held at the Village Park, rain or shine, unless dangerous conditions arise. Guests are asked to bring lawn chairs. Golf carts will be providing rides to the park. The afternoon starts at 2 p.m. with the Peterson Farm Brothers opening. The main concert with Little Texas will follow, with everything wrapping up by 5 p.m.

The Peterson Farm Brothers are three brothers from central Kansas who create social media content to promote agriculture. Their videos have received over 250 million views and they have just over 1 million followers on all of their social platforms put together. The brothers grew up and still work on a family farm near Assaria, KS. All 3 attended Kansas State University. Greg graduated in 2013, majoring in Agricultural Communications and Journalism. Nathan graduated in 2016, majoring in Agriculture Technology Management. Kendal graduated in 2018, majoring in Agribusiness. Their goal is still to operate the family farm together, but hope to make a positive impact with their social media content.

The Bishop Hill Heritage Association is hosting this free July 8th event. American Rescue Plan Funds from Henry County, approved by the Henry County Board, were used to help finance this event.
