Click to see more ideas.
Don’t throw away
your pumpkins.
Find woods near you and smash open for wildlife to eat.
Pumpkin is safe for wildlife and the birds will love the seeds. Recycling + food source...
Win / Win.
Cut your pumpkin into
pieces and scatter outside
as a treat for local critters.
Birds will feed on the esh
in addition to the seeds,
as will squirrels, foxes,
deer, porcupines and
other mammals. Generally feeding mammals is discouraged but in this case it’s ok to do as a once-a-year thing to recycle your pumpkin. Just don’t do this in your yard if large animals such as bears might be attracted. In most areas brown and black bears are entering their winter dormancy by the time Halloween passes.
