So. Many. Pumpkins.

Pumpkins are an incredbly cool decoration. Big and small, short and stout, carved or not, nothing says Halloween like a pumpkin. And after they have served their purpose, you can compost them for your garden!

Costumes From Home

Got a hole in a shirt? No problem! Create costumes from clothes you have in the back of your closet. Get creative before your fast fashion heads to a landfill.

Reduce, Reuse, Decorate!

Use things that you have around the house to decorate. Get creative with cleaned and decorated coffee cans or wine bottles.

Shop Small and Local

Find treats for trick or treaters, pumpkins, and anything else you need for Halloween locally. Local farmers and bakeries add a personal touch to thist fall holiday.

Carve out Snack Time

After you carve your pumpkin, wash and bake the seeds for a healthy snack. Or cultivate the seeds leftover from your jack o'lantern and grow your own pumpkins.
