Wichita Teal Pumpkin Event: Halloween at Natural Grocers 10/29

Halloween is coming, and for most kids, that means one thing: C-A-N-D-Y. However, according to the CDC, four out of 100 children suffer from a food allergy. With nuts, dairy, gluten, eggs, corn, and soy being some of the most common allergens that can trigger a mild to serious reaction in these children, that doesn't leave them with much that they can collect in their jack-o-lantern-shaped buckets.

Enter the Teal Pumpkin Project. This awareness effort focuses on helping children with food allergies be able to enjoy the same Halloween traditions as their friends. Look for a teal-colored pumpkin on the doorstep: that means your child can trick-or-treat for non-food or allergen-free goodies at this location.

Where can you find a great teal pumpkin location in Wichita?

This year, Wichita Doula is partnering at Natural Grocers to help bring you a great family-friendly event, perfect for those who need to stay away from regular Halloween candy. We will be passing out fun non-food goodies to visitors, as well as teaching our Babywearing 101 class. This is a FREE Halloween event for Wichita families, located at the east (Rock Rd) Natural Grocers. Bring your kids (and costumes)!
