Hello, y’all!
For over two years, I’ve researched, blogged and just generally thought about the importance of home gardens and the simple but powerful acts of ordinary citizens. It’s been a transformative experience. This year, I decided to turn from “theory to practice,” so to speak.
Let me explain.
During the 2010 Election Year, I’m collaborating on a NON-partisan, pro-garden, Facebook-based petition drive here in Texas. It’s called Dig for Texas (@digfortexas). It’s modeled on the successful 2008 Eat The View campaign, which helped re-establish a vegetable garden on the White House lawn. Of course, in our case, we’ll be petitioning whomever is elected governor–either Rick Perry (R) or Bill White (D)–on November 2.
We could use your help with this effort. Here’s how:
- If you’re a non-Texan, please share a link to the project’s main hub (www.DigforTexas.com), follow us on Twitter, and join our Facebook group. You can also blog about the project and share one of our videos.
- If you’re a Texan, then you can do all of that fun stuff (above) PLUS (and MOST importantly) sign the petition. You can also print and distribute this flyer. Got a newsletter? Then please add this blurb.
Thanks so much for considering this request!
