As a heartfelt tribute to the dedicated farmers who help feed the nation, Culver’s has announced its 2025 To Farmers With Love Contest — a annual nationwide initiative running now through August 1.
The restaurant chain is inviting guests to nominate a farmer making a meaningful impact in their community for a chance to win a trip to attend a Tim McGraw concert at the Field of Dreams Movie Site on Aug. 30, 2025, or the Velocity Music Festival on Aug. 31, 2025, both held in Dyersville, Iowa.
To nominate a farmer, guests can visit the contest page and respond to one of the following prompts with a photo, video or written story.
- How has this farmer changed your life or the lives of those in your community?
- How has this farmer gone above and beyond to make a positive impact on the future of agriculture?
- How has farming helped shape who they are, on and off the farm?
As a sponsor of the McGraw concert at the Field of Dreams Movie Site and Velocity Music Festival, Culver’s will bring its signature hospitality to life at the concert through its “Blue Room Experience,” complete with Vanilla Fresh Frozen Custard samples, lawn games, photo ops and more.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Culver’s to bring the first-ever concert to the iconic Field of Dreams Movie Site,” said Nick Abate, producer at U.S. Concert Agency. “Tim’s own roots as a former FFA member make Culver’s support through the Thank You Farmers Project all the more meaningful.”
Five winning farmers will be awarded a prize package as a thank you for the work they do in their communities. Each of the winning farmers will receive:
- Two (2) VIP concert tickets and travel/lodging to their choice of either the Tim McGraw concert at the Field of Dreams Movie Site on Aug. 30, 2025, or the Velocity Music Festival on Aug. 31, 2025, both held in Dyersville, Iowa
- Culver’s gift cards
- Exclusive Thank You Farmers Project swag
Winners will be notified the week of August 18. The contest is part of Culver’s Thank You Farmers Project, a long-standing program that supports agricultural education, hunger relief and climate-smart farming practices. Since 2013, the initiative has raised over $6.5 million to support the future of agriculture.
“The Thank You Farmers Project is at the heart of who we are,” said Liz Haferkorn, Culver’s director of marketing. “Farmers make it possible for us to serve the delicious, farm-fresh food our guests love, and this contest is our way of saying thank you to farming communities across the country who make a difference every day.”
