What is a “clean pumpkin”?
-If you’ve painted, glued, or glittered your pumpkin, just take a veggie peeler and scrape that stuff off. It’s not compostable.
-If you burned a drippy candle, go ahead and scrape out that wax. It’s not compostable either.
Registration is NOT required nor are tickets. Free and open to all.
All ages are welcome, at your own risk. However, adult supervision for children under 18 is required. We will have safety glasses available, which are strongly recommended for all participants who would like to smash pumpkins and required for all children under 18.
Thanks to our sponsor, Smart Recycling, for hauling all the pumpkins to the Bees Ferry Compost Facility to be transformed into valuable compost for our local gardens and green spaces!
