- Should you buy an organic pumpkin for Halloween?
- Green Your Halloween Party
TREATS:
- Oodles of Free Recycled Halloween Craft Ideas

THIS YEAR:
There’s still time to enter the ChicoBag & Green Halloween’s 2nd Annual Trick-Or-Treat Bag Design Contest and get signed up for Fair Trade Reverse Trick-or-Treating.
Jennifer – thank you so much for including our second annual GreenHalloween ChicoBag trick-or-treat bag design contest! Last year’s bag was designed by a 12-year-old from Florida and the bag was featured on the Bonnie Hunt Show! Proceeds benefit the organization, Treeswing.
I also wanted to let your readers know about some of the cool new resources that we have this year on http://www.GreenHalloween.org – to help make it easy for families to celebrate a healthy and green Halloween:
* Community page/ discussion board (swap/ give away used costumes/ decor items, exchange recipes, etc.)
* Downloadable action kits and more for parents, teachers and neighborhood organizers
* A link-through marketplace for Green Halloween items – the only on the web
We also love suggestions so if there is something you would like to see on the site that’s not already there, please let us know!
