Don’t Waste It! Donate Your Pumpkins or Gourds to Farmers! They make great animal feed.
​Please note: paint, glitter, decorations, candles, and wax are not suitable for animal feed and are not eligible for drop-off. It is vitally important that the pumpkins contain no metal, as this could be lethal to cattle. No bleached pumpkins. If you cannot eat it, neither can the animal. No other food scraps or organic materials can be dropped off at these participating farms.
Look for a designated collection spot, bins, or a wagon as you pull into the farm.
