Keeping Kids Food Safe In Classrooms, Cafeteria

As Halloween approaches, food allergies have come to the forefront and local families are joining in with the ‘Teal Pumpkin Project’ to provide alternatives to candy for young trick-or-treaters. Placing a teal pumpkin in your yard and offering items such as stickers, crayons or small toys can help families whose children suffer from food allergies, keeping Halloween a safe and enjoyable holiday. The ever-growing issue of food allergies in children has also been brought to light in the Escalon Unified School District, where the parents of four-year-old Devin Berchtold hope to have him attend school.
