Residents of Chanhassen, Minnesota, have a unique opportunity to give their pumpkins a second life after the Halloween festivities have come to an end. City officials are calling on the community to bring their pumpkins to the Chanhassen Public Works for a noble cause. According to a
social media post
from the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota Government, these contributions will “be donated to feed farm animals in Minnesota.”
The drop-off initiative is in its final week, with the cutoff date set for November 15. This means there is still time for locals to take part and make sure their pumpkins are put to good use. The indicated dumpster at the Chanhassen Public Works is the sole designated spot for pumpkin drop-offs, and it’s open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is essential to carefully only place pumpkins in the appropriately marked receptacle, to avoid contaminating the animal feed with materials that are not suitable for animal consumption.
The City is making a concerted effort to ensure that residents are aware of this environmentally friendly option before the chance slips by. For those who would still like to contribute, the time to act is now. The City reminds participants to please ensure that the pumpkins have no candles, paint, or decorations on them before dropping them off, as these can potentially harm animals.
