Don’t trash it, smash it! On Saturday, November 5 from 12pm to 4pm, green your Halloween at the third annual Edgewater Pumpkin Smash presented by the @sustainedgewater and the Andersonville and @edgechamber. Join us in the parking lot at 6040 N Clark (north of the Fire Station) for some free, Halloween-related fun while reducing waste and educating residents about advantages of composting food waste! All are welcome to drop pumpkins off without getting out of your cars or to join in the smashing fun by tossing their pumpkins in the giant compost container. We request that all pumpkins dropped off are free of non-biodegradable materials such as candles, plastic or metal decorations. In the last two years, the Edgewater Pumpkin Smash has diverted 8.1 tons of pumpkins from area landfills dropped off by hundreds of area residents. Join our efforts by composting your festive pumpkins, and contact Nina Newhouser at [email protected] if interested in volunteering! #pumpkins #compost #halloween #jackolantern #fun #andersonville
