We’re only a few days away from sustainablog’s Pedal-a-Watt Powered Blogathon<\/a>, and we’re getting pretty excited on this end! We hope you’ll be checking in during the event, and even consider making a pledge to benefit residential outreach and education infrastructure at the Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here are the details…<\/p>\n

When: <\/strong>We’ll start the blogathon at 4pm Central on Friday, March 26, and keep going until 4pm on Saturday, March 27.<\/p>\n

Where:<\/strong> Right here at sustainablog.\u00a0 We’ll be doing our thing from eco bed & breakfast<\/a> The Milkweed Mercantile at Dancing Rabbit.<\/p>\n

Who:<\/strong> While I’ll be serving as you MC and blogathoner-in-chief, a number of green bloggers have offered to contribute posts. Still others have donated items that will give away in a drawing… all you have to do to enter is to leave a comment. Needless to say, we’ll filter out the spam and such… please join in the conversation! Go by our blogathon FAQ<\/a> to see who’s participating (and we’re still happy to have others contribute posts and\/or prizes).<\/p>\n

Can you donate to the blogathon?<\/h2>\n

While this should be a great time for the sustainablog community to come together, we’re also doing this raise funds for Dancing Rabbit? We’d be grateful if you made a pledge, either a set amount or a per-post pledge (and 50 posts is the goal for the blogathon).<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"World's<\/strong><\/strong>
World's Best Compost ebook<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you can donate $50 or more,<\/strong> we’ve even got a “thank you” gift: a copy of the compost making<\/a> e-book “World’s Best Compost” (which normally sells for $34.77).<\/p>\n

All funds raised from the blogathon will go to Dancing Rabbit: we’re donating our time and efforts to this event. If you’d like to make a pledge, please do so in the comments on the FAQ page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We hope you’ll join us… it should be a great time!<\/p>\n

UPDATE:<\/strong> Our donation page<\/a> is up… thank you in advance for your generosity!<\/p>\n
