Maz Yasgur was a Jewish dairy farmer. Not too many Jewish farmers. Woodstock was set up in his fields I think

Woodstock is a misnomer. Originally it was to be held there. The REAL organizers didn’t even get to enjoy the concert because they were doing too much background work to keep things from totally going wrong.

That included paying bands up front, making arrangments to fly them in, etc. etc.

It was a logistical nightmare. Michael Lang got to be at the backstage party. Someone dosed the Who with acid in their drinks. Pete Townsend still calls it the worst concert they had to play.
