In 2006 the Briggs family was awarded the Governor's Bicentennial Award for being a working farm kept in the same family for over 200 years. The festival was the idea of Richard Briggs who, at the age of 16, wanted to go to Woodstock 1969 but had to pick tomatoes on the farm instead. After working as a TV producer later in life, Richard found himself equipped with the knowledge and skill to produce a blues festival on his family’s farm. In 1998, Richard put together the first Briggs Farm Blues Festival.〔("13th annual Briggs Farm Blues Festival to be bigger, better" ). Standardspeaker.com〕 Since its premier in 1998, the festival has grown and expanded each year, with attendees from all over the United States and the world gathering to hear Delta-style blues.〔("Briggs Farm hosts 14th annual Blues Festival this weekend in Nescopeck Twp." ) Thetimes-tribune.com〕
