Tip # 32

Re-use your Halloween pumpkin!

• Many communities now have curbside compost pick-up, so drop your pumpkin into the compost bin.
• If you have your own backyard compost,chop it up and put it in there.  (Minus the seeds, which can be cleaned, seasoned, baked and snacked on)
• Or, you could do what I did....

Before - 

....and After

We always take an axe to our pumpkin and cut it into little pieces.  By tomorrow morning you won't find a trace of this pumpkin.  You will, however, find  many happy squirrels, birds, field mice, moles, raccoons and deer.

After Halloween, what do you do with your pumpkin ?
