The Teal Pumpkin Project

Have you heard of the Teal Pumpkin Project? Halloween is just around the corner and in Jonestown and areas around Austin, TX we love to go all out when it comes to decorating for Halloween. Halloween is a special time for kids of all ages but especially for the little ones. That excitement can be tampered however, if the little one suffers from food allergies. Halloween can be a really scary holiday for those with food allergies. That’s where FARE comes in. FARE stands for Food Allergy Research & Education and they’ve created the Teal Pumpkin Project specifically for kids with food allergies. If you decorate your home for Halloween and give out treats to the trick or treaters, you can participate in this event!

The Teal Pumpkin Project

FARE’s Teal Pumpkin Project® is a worldwide movement to create a safer, happier Halloween for all kids. Putting a teal pumpkin on your doorstep means you have non-food treats available, such as glow sticks or small toys. This simple act promotes inclusion for trick-or-treaters with food allergies or other conditions.

How to Take Part

  • Provide non-food treats for trick-or-treaters
  • Place a teal pumpkin in front of your home to indicate to passersby that you have non-food treats available
  • Display a free printable sign or premium poster from FARE to explain the meaning of your teal pumpkin
