October is one of our favorite months here at DigInVT. There's an abundance of freshly harvested local veggies and meats to enjoy and the mountains are covered in bright red, orange, and yellow leaves. Pumpkins dot the hillsides and flicker on front porches, and the smell of wood smoke and just baked apple pie is in the air. But that's not all -- we also get excited for all the fun ways to celebrate Halloween in Vermont!
Below are just a few options to get in the spooky spirit for Halloween.
