Yes, we can! To: Cynthia Price <[email protected]> Please help us grow the White House Victory Garden Petition by visiting this link and clicking on the green button saying “Ask Friends to Sign”: http://apps.facebook.com/causes/petitions/43?m=5d40daf8 With spring planting just around the corner, the next month is going to be critical for the Eat the View campaign and we’re running a little contest to see who can recruit the most signatures for our petition on Facebook. As someone who has already signed the petition, you’re already entered into competition. You can invite up to 60 friends per day to sign between now and the end of the contest (March 20). To motivate you, our sponsors are upping the ante with their prizes. The prizes are now as follows: 1st: $500 gift certificate to Gardener's Supply Co. 2nd: A year’s worth of Organic Valley dairy products (retail value $416) 3rd: A $200 gift certificate to Johnny’s Selected Seeds And all three of our winners will also receive a two-year subscription to GrowVeg.com’s online garden planning software (retail value $40). That’s over $1200 in prizes in all. Our contest ends on March 20, 2009, at precisely 7:44 A.M. EDT (11:44 Universal Time) which is when the spring equinox occurs this year. Facebook keeps a running tally of the top three signature gatherers just a couple lines below the “Ask Friends to Sign” button: http://apps.facebook.com/causes/petitions/43?m=5d40daf8 We’ll report back on the results of the contest as soon as we have them. Thanks and good luck! Roger Doiron PS: The White House Victory Garden Petition is a part of the Eat the View campaign which is a project of the nonprofit group Kitchen Gardeners International (KGI).
