Boo! It's Green Halloween!

Green Halloween®
The “eek-o-friendly” revolution

Who says Halloween has to be unhealthy? And who says healthy can‘t be fun? Green Halloween® is about making Halloween happy and healthy and about creating community traditions we can all be proud of.

What is Green Halloween?
Green Halloween® is a non-profit, grassroots initiative striving to create healthier, eco-friendlier holidays– starting with Halloween. Launched in Seattle in 2007 by a mother of two, the nationwide movement, now a program of EcoMom Alliance, is all about educating and inspiring communities by showing how easy, affordable, and fun it can be to factor our earth and our health into our daily choices.
To read all about Green Halloween and find fun events near you, visit GreenHalloween.org. You can learn how to get involved locally, sign up for the super nifty newsletter, and get fab DIY costume ideas, recipes, upcycled décor how-to‘s and more. There‘s even a trick-or-treat bag design contest for kids!
So forget orange and black. With upcoming events in cities across the U.S., this community initiative is adding much-needed green to Halloween. It‘s a scream!

Celebrate Green!

I recently got to meet another great mom who is also doing great things! Her name is Corey Colwell-Lipson and her and her mom, Lynn, wrote a great book called "Celebrate Green!". They have a wonderful blog and book that gives you all the information and fun ideas you need to celebrate in an eco and fun way.

They are also behind the genius Halloween Costume swap which was supported by Kiwi magazine last year. Please check them out!
