Rural King, a family-owned retailer dedicated to the rural lifestyle, is partnering with platinum-certified, Grammy-nominated artist and songwriter Anne Wilson for the “Harvest of Hope: On the Road” tour, a family-friendly concert series celebrating faith, family and community across rural America.
As part of the Rural King Foundation’s annual Harvest of Hope: On the Road initiative, Wilson will perform and meet fans at three Rural King locations this fall: Nov. 5 in Dothan, Alabama, at 3:30 p.m.; Nov. 22 in Cross Lanes, West Virginia, at 1 p.m.; and Dec. 10 in Waverly, Ohio, with time to be announced.
“Rural King is proud to partner with Anne Wilson, whose music embodies the same values of faith, family and community that we hold close to our hearts,” said Amy Shafer, foundation director for Rural King. “Together, we’re uplifting rural America through music and shared purpose.”
“I’m honored to join forces with Rural King to bring Harvest of Hope to life in local communities,” Wilson said. “These events are about more than music. They’re about bringing people together to celebrate what matters most.”
Each stop will feature a one-hour performance and community gathering designed to inspire hope, connection and service. The Harvest of Hope: On the Road initiative supports local causes and brings families together through meaningful experiences. All events are free to the public.
Fans can follow the journey and share their experiences using #HarvestOfHope and #RuralKingFamily. For more information about the tour, visit Rural King’s Facebook page.
With a legacy spanning more than six decades, Rural King continues to build strong community connections through local partnerships and events that celebrate the values of rural America. The partnership with Wilson underscores the retailer’s commitment to supporting the communities it serves, offering not just essential goods but also experiences that bring people together.
Wilson, at just 23, has already crossed the 2 billion streams milestone and emerged as one of the most distinctive new voices in both Christian and country music. Her third studio album, Stars, captures a young artist growing up on record, shaped by the tragic loss of her brother Jacob. Her music reflects themes of grief, growth, maturity and wonder, carried by soaring vocals and country-pop production.
The Harvest of Hope: On the Road tour represents a unique blend of retail community outreach and musical ministry, highlighting how local businesses can partner with artists to create meaningful, accessible events for families in rural areas.
