Halloween can be a time of excess and waste. But it doesn’t have to be! This year, consider giving gifts that are both spooky and sustainable.
- Experiences over Things: Instead of physical gifts, consider giving experiences like tickets to a haunted house, a ghost tour, or a pumpkin carving workshop.
- Thrift Store Treasures: Scour your local thrift stores for vintage Halloween decorations, costumes, or spooky books.
- DIY Treats: Bake homemade Halloween treats using organic and locally sourced ingredients. Package them in reusable containers or wrap them in beeswax wraps.
- Eco-Friendly Decorations: Choose decorations made from recycled materials or natural elements like gourds and pinecones.
- Support Ethical Brands: When buying gifts, look for brands that prioritize fair labor practices and use sustainable materials.
By choosing sustainable and ethical gifts, you can help reduce your environmental impact and support businesses that are doing good.
