"Transform Your Halloween Pumpkin: Delicious Ways to Use Nutritional Gems!"

Transform your Halloween pumpkin into nutritious meals instead of letting it end up in a landfill; every part, from the skin to the seed, is edible and beneficial.

Over 1 billion pounds of pumpkins rot in US landfills annually, highlighting the need for better utilization of this gold of the harvest season.
After carving a jack-o-lantern, use the excess pumpkin to make purée, which can be incorporated into various healthy dishes.
All parts of a pumpkin, including the skin and seed, are edible and can be composted or fed to animals, reducing waste and promoting sustainability.

Why It Matters

This initiative to repurpose pumpkins aligns with broader sustainability efforts to reduce food waste, encouraging families to consider nutritional options and environmentally friendly practices during Halloween.
