Halloween: an opportunity for parents to squish their adorable children into itchy, feathery, sequin-filled works of art in an attempt to capture that perfect moment and share it on their social media feeds. Maybe it’s because I’m a farm kid at heart, but I think the best costume ideas come straight from the farm. And I'm not the only one on our team here at Farm Journal who feels that way.

In case you are still looking for that perfect costume for Halloween (or just enjoy cute kids on Halloween), here are some farm-friendly ideas shared by our team at Farm Journal.
