Eco-friendly mom adds new twist to Halloween tradition
October 22, 2008
By Makenzie Greenblatt
Halloween: healthy and environmentally friendly. Sound impossible? One Issaquah mom has made it her mission to create new traditions for children, parents and the Earth.
While trick-or-treating with her daughters in 2006, Corey Colwell-Lipson thought about how great it would be if you could tell which houses were giving out healthy treats. Already living a mostly organic and eco-friendly lifestyle, she understood that it could be time-consuming and expensive to find alternatives to traditional Halloween fare. So, she decided to mention her thoughts to the folks at Whole Foods Market in Bellevue.
“I shared it hoping that they would do something with it,” she said.

Such was the sentiment buzzing from spectators on both sides of the field at Issaquah High’s stadium as they watched the Spartans put the smack down on the Eagles.
