Don't throw your pumpkin away, bring it in and feed it to the worms. We will have pumpkins available to smash as well, but please bring your old Halloween jackolaterns and other gourd décor in for recycling services with us. We will have a station set up where you can throw, punch, and in general MESS up your old pumpkin! By smashing them up we are encouraging along the decomposition process and making it easier for the worms to eat one of their favorite snacks, pumpkins!
The US Department of Energy estimates that of the 1.3 BILLION pounds of pumpkins produced by farmers each year, 254 million tons end up in municipal waste landfills each year. The EPA estimates that every 1 pound of food waste sent to the landfill produces 3.8 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions, don't be part of the problem-
