What are you doing with your pumpkins now that Halloween is over? I smashed mine into mushy gunk to toss into a compost brew. Why smash instead of trash? Find out in my book PUMPKIN SMASH. michelleschaub.com/pumpkin

Don't trash those sagging jack-o-lanterns! Take them to a pumpkin smash! Then those squished squash can feed the soil as compost instead of feeding landfills. michelleschaub.com/pumpkin @NYRBooks @StormLiterary
