Roasted pumpkin seeds with a bit of seasoning… my fall favorite! You can also toss seeds into the ground before the first frost. If the birds don’t eat them all, you might get even more pumpkins in the spring!
Here’s a tip: next season, plant them somewhere different. Bugs ruined all of mine because I kept them in the same spot!
Congrats! I couldn’t grow any this year, so I’d say carve them and then either compost or leave them out for the squirrels. I also save seeds every year just in case.
Love this idea! I think I’ll try growing pumpkins next year too.
Some people just leave them outside after Halloween for the wildlife… squirrels, raccoons, even bears sometimes.

Just be careful not to feed bears! It’s dangerous for both them and people.

Yeah, where I live, I’d probably just be inviting coyotes!
