Most of us enjoy visiting the pumpkin patch with friends and family every year, but what do we do with out pumpkins once Halloween is passed? Take a look at these 5 creative ways you can recycle them.
5 Resourceful Ways you can Recycle Your Pumpkins
Transform them into planters – Didn’t get to carving the pumpkin this year? Empty them out and turn them into potted plants. Succulents are low maintenance and look great in pumpkins having a light green hue.
Make soup – Nothing says “fall” like a delicious, homemade pumpkin soup. Combine these ingredients for a bistro-worthy meal on a cold day or on Thanksgiving for the entire family to savor!
Decorate with them – Pumpkins typically last 8-12 weeks after they’re picked. Use them as a Thanksgiving centerpiece on your dining room table.
Compost them – Compost is the most essential supplement for your garden and adds nutrients, retains soil moisture, and reduces landfill waste.
Make a bird feeder – Turn your leftover pumpkins into a fun project to work on with your children. Feed the neighborhood birds with Martha Stewart’s Bird Feeder and watch them come and go from a window nearby..
