Pumpkin Drop off
Turn your pumpkins into compost! Drop off your pumpkins, jack-o-lanterns, and gourds, including those that may already be decaying or rotting at any of the following drop off locations between Friday, November 1, through Sunday, November 3, 2024, from 10am-4pm. Collection containers will be available in the parking lots of each location.
Pumpkins should not be bleached or painted, and have candles or lanterns removed. No corn stalks or hay bales will be accepted.
Again, this year NOCO Forestry, Erie County, and Farmers Pirates Compost will be actively composting the pumpkins collected from the community.
