The Growing Trend of Teal Pumpkins for Halloween

The Teal Pumpkin Project is a non-profit program that aims to raise awareness about food allergies and provide safe alternatives for children during Halloween. By placing a teal pumpkin outside their homes, participants signal that they will be offering non-food treats to trick-or-treaters with allergies. This includes items like Halloween crafts and toys. Participants can also add their homes to the Teal Pumpkin Project map and spread the word to friends and neighbors. The program recommends keeping food treats and non-food treats separate to ensure safety.
