Goodbye Pumpkins

Who would have thought we would get so many pumpkins? Not me, but we recycled (composted) over 19,000 lbs. of pumpkins from Nov. 1 to Nov. 7.  Thank you residents of Brooklyn Park, Brooklyn Center, Crystal and New Hope! We also had one resident reuse pumpkin stems that she dug out of our container. Take a look at the velvet pumpkin crafts she gave us as a sample.

The Great Pumpkin was Spotted in Brooklyn Park!

Can you spot the Great Pumpkin? Who can guess how many pounds of pumpkins are in the container?  Take a guess!
