Okay, so what's better than pumpkins to decorate for Halloween, right? Well, here are a few helpful tid bits I learned about while visiting another great site:
The Green Parent at http://thegreenparent.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
- Pumpkins totally rock! *They inspire us in dones of ways, everything from decorations to food! *They have "super powers"-while they grow they remove Toxic DDT from our soil!
So you're GREEN tips for this holiday are as follows: - Buying from your LOCAL Pumpkin People-helps save ENERGY and RESOURCES otherwise spent on packaging & shipping, etc.
- NO LEFTOVERS! Bake the seeds or feed the squirrels, or call your local zoo about donating them.
- COMPOST-When your pumpkins are no longer looking their best then put them in your compost pile. Here's a great site to help you get started...http://www.howtocompost.org/Giant_Compost_Pumpkins.asp
