Pumpkin Composting Bin Coming to Lakewood

Presenting another great way to go green during the autumn season: Cuyahoga County has selected Lakewood–specifically Kaufmann Park–for the placement of a pumpkin collection bin. This program helps keep pumpkins out of the landfill, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and repurposing valuable nutrients.

The bin will be placed at the park on October 30, and residents may drop off their non-decorated pumpkins and gourds through November 8. Note that these bins are for pumpkins only; do not insert plastic bags, trash, or other organic yard waste.
