I have some wonderful news to share — I was selected as one of ten finalist for the Stonyfield Blogger Barnstorming Essay Contest!! Voting is now open to the public to select the three winners who will tour the organic farms Stonyfield uses to make its yummy organic products, meet the farmers and their families, along with a tour of the factory itself. This is an amazing learning opportunity, and I would love to share the information gained with all of you as well, but to do that I NEED your vote!
As an added bonus, if I make the top 3, Stonyfield will make a $5,000 donation to the charity of my choice — The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. How fantastic is that??
If you have been enjoying our little bloggy-blog-on-the-internet-blog, please consider voting for me!
You are allowed one vote per email address per day, so please consider writing yourself a note to get in as many as seven votes per email address all this week. Pass along the link to the this post to your friends/family/post on Facebook, etc. Every vote counts!!! With any luck, I’ll be packing my bags for Vermont!!

Really, 4:30am? – and you want to go? It all sounds so – farmy
But, you have my vote(s). This is a great blog.

I voted for you….
Good luck x

I voted…
We're doing a family vacation to VT this summer.
But I grew up on a farm, so really, no desire for me to get up to milk the cows, but have fun!
Something that some people do for motivating readers to vote is to have giveaways and have one entry be the vote. Just a thought.
I always read you in my reader, but just don't stop by too often anymore to say hi. So many good blogs to read…so little time.

You have my vote, my mother had pancreatic cancer so I'm definately voting for you! (I would have done anyway!)
I was the person that nominated you for the Beautiful Blog award a few days ago.
Love your blog and will be voting as much as possible.
