Pumpkin Smash at Story Mill

Community Park

November 2, 2024

Grab your pumpkins, jack-o’-lanterns and gourds and meet the Bozeman Parks & Recreation Department at Story Mill Park on November 2 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. for a smashing good time. Did you know that more than 1 billion pounds of pumpkins are wasted in American landfills each year, contributing to harmful greenhouse gases? By composting pumpkins locally, we give organic material a second life, and the finished compost benefits farms and gardens right here in the Gallatin Valley. The Pumpkin Smash is a community event brought to you in partnership with Happy Trash Can Curbside Composting and the Bozeman Parks & Recreation Department. It is not just good for the planet; it’s also a blast for all ages. It’s free, it’s fun and it’s an opportunity to make a positive impact on our environment. The more pumpkins we smash, the bigger difference we make.
