YASGUR'S FARM
In 1985, Miriam Yasgur decided to sell their homestead. It was purchased by Roy Howard, a Monticello, NY resident and Woodstock alumnus,

and Jeryl Abramson. A stipulation in the deed stated that one square foot of land would remain Yasgur property,

ensuring that a piece of land would forever remain.

"WELCOME HOME"
THE ANNUAL REUNIONS AT YASGUR'S ROAD

ROY HOWARD AND JERYL ABRAMSON
After the Woodstock Site was sold, the annual reunions that took place on that land were halted by the

Gerry Foundation, with the help of the town board.  People were no longer allowed to celebrate on the land
Roy Howard, and his wife Jeryl Abramson, who now owns the Yasgur homestead. stepped in to help. 
They welcomed all the celebrants to their farm - Max's Farm. 

Thousands of pilgrims from all over the world would make the trip to
Roy and Jeryl's to celebrate Woodstock's anniversary.  The reunions continued every August for 10 years,

until the town permanently enjoined the couple from welcoming people.  In 2006, after years or controversy

and legal battles, the annual gatherings were banned by the Town of Bethel through the use of excessive

police force, but the people still come.
