What happens when spooky season crashes the summer party? SUMMERWEEN! This playful mashup brings Halloween vibes to July—with jack-o’-melons, pineapple lanterns, spooky snacks, and sunshine-friendly costumes. Think Halloween… but with popsicles.
🎭 Costumes optional, creativity encouraged! Want to wear a witch hat with your flip-flops? Go for it. Skeleton tank top? Even better. Summerween is all about having fun with the weird and whimsical.
🌱 What to bring
As always, please bring:
• A 100% vegan dish to share (home-cooked or store-bought welcome)
• A notecard with ingredients for allergy and preference purposes
• Your own plate, utensils, cup, and cloth napkin (we’re a zero-waste gathering!)
👶 Kids and veg-curious guests are always welcome.
🌿 All dishes must be vegan, but you don’t have to be!
👻 Need inspiration? Here are some Summerween-y ideas:
• Black bean pasta salad (ghoulish and great for hot weather)
• Watermelon carved like a jack-o’-lantern
• Chips and guac with "witch finger" carrot sticks
• Vegan cupcakes with spiderweb icing
💚 Can't bring a dish this time? No worries—come anyway. You being there is what matters most.
