In October our Pumpkins for the Planet page will be updated with a list of collection sites in Ottawa South that will accept pumpkins from Nov 1st to Nov 2nd at 2 pm.

Otherwise you can drop off to “Pumpkin Alley” (Ernie Calcutt Park at 759 Mooney’s Bay Place) until Wednesday November 6th at 5 p.m.

We’re looking for volunteers to load pumpkins on Tuesday November 5th. If you are interested in helping, please fill in the intake form on our Pumpkins for the Planet page.

Please note: if there is not a collection location near you, to reduce emissions from travelling consider collecting your neighbours pumpkins and making a trip out of it, or simply put it into your municipal compost.
