It is estimated that a billion pounds of pumpkin get dumped into landfills each year after Halloween. These Tampa Bay businesses and community organizations worked together to raise awareness about the need to compost pumpkins. 12 local farms and community gardens accepted pumpkins for composting this year - see the list below complied by Shells Feed & Garden Supply.
