Trade in Your Halloween Candy for a Good Cause

Children in the area have an opportunity to trade in their sugary Halloween candy for a sweet reward today and Friday.

The national Halloween Candy Buyback Program allows dental offices to buy back candy from children from trick-or-treating. The children are paid $1 for each pound of candy. The candy is then donated to troops overseas through the Operation Gratitude program.

The nearest buy back location is Fairview Clinics in Eagan. Scheduled buy back times are Nov. 1 through Nov. 9 during regular clinic hours. The office is located at 1185 Town Centre Dr. Their phone number is 651-406-8860.
