Are your pumpkins starting to shrivel into something scarier than sugared-up kids at Halloween? Then it’s just in time for the Islandwide Feed a Pig a Pumpkin Day tomorrow.
On Saturday, Nov. 8, recycle your out-of-date jack’o’lanterns from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the following farmers: Allen Farm in Chilmark, Farm Institute in Edgartown, Native Earth Teaching Farm in Chilmark and at SBS, for the Thompson family farm, in Vineyard Haven.
Pigs, goats, compost — they all love pumpkins, especially those tasty, candle-roasted ones. Pumpkins make the perfect nosh, filled with vitamins and goodness (minus the wax and metal bits please).
This event is sponsored by Island Grown Initiative to show the simpler things we can do to nourish our local farms.
