Don’t let your pumpkin haunt the landfill! Each year, around 1.3 billion pounds of pumpkins in the U.S. are sent to landfills after Halloween, where they release harmful methane gas that contributes to global warming.

Don’t toss your Halloween pumpkins in the trash, bring them to our Pumpkin Smash! Join us for our Annual Pumpkin Smash on November 8th, 2025, from 9 AM - 12 PM at S.O.W. Collective Backyard Farm. Smash, chop, or break your pumpkin and add it to our three-bin compost system. You’ll cut down on landfill waste and give your pumpkin the chance to return to the Earth!
