Friendly reminder- you can take your pumpkins & gourds to the old Andersons for composting
Compost your pumpkins & gourds! 🎃 About 1 billion pounds of pumpkins end up in U.S. landfills each year. When organic waste breaks down in landfills, it generates methane, a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to our changing climate.
Starting November 1, the Great Pumpkin Pitch returns! Bring your leftover Halloween pumpkins and gourds to one of the following drop-off locations for composting:
♻️ The Old Andersons Building -530 Illinois Ave., Maumee, OH
♻️ Sylvania Township Hall - 4927 N. Holland Sylvania Rd., Sylvania, OH
♻️ City of Toledo Clean Toledo Recycling Center - 3900 Creekside Ave., Toledo, OH
♻️ Oregon Senior Center - 4350 Navarre Ave., Oregon, OH

The Great Pumpkin Pitch runs through the first Sunday in December, so be sure to drop off your pumpkins and gourds before the program ends.
