Pumpkin Smash at Lehman College
Wondering what you should do with your jack-o’-lanterns after Halloween? Head to the Lehman quad and throw your pumpkins off the platform on the upper quad onto the target below, or hurl one across the quad in the giant slingshot!
Smashed pumpkin is collected and composted onsite – an environmentally friendly alternative (which creates rich compost) to landfill disposal (which produces methane gas, a potent greenhouse gas).
Don’t have a jack-o’-lantern? You can smash one of the pumpkins supplied by the NY Botanical Gardens in the Bronx! Participants are welcome to take one (or more) of the magnificent heirloom edible pumpkin varieties home and explore the world of pumpkin-based cuisine. Or take home one (or more) of the otherworldly inedible varieties home as decoration. (Be sure to drop it off at one of the food scrap drop off sites when done for composting.)
