Halloween 25: Compost Pumpkins

That pumpkin can be used for more than just a spooky face!
🎃 Use fresh pumpkin flesh for cooking: puree, butter, chutney, chunks for soups, stews, or risotto. Pumpkin spice lattes, anyone? Lots of possibilities!
🎃 Roast those seeds! Just clean and dry them, add a dash of oil or butter, season to your liking, and roast at 375 degrees for 15-30 minutes.
🎃 Does your area provide curbside organics collection? If so, you can put your used pumpkins in your organics cart.
🎃 Plant them whole in your backyard so they can compost in your garden. You may get your own pumpkin vines growing next year.
🎃 Donate to a local animal sanctuary or farm for feed.
