New plans for pumpkins with wildlife in mind!
Colwood is helping residents find new fun ways to dispose of Halloween pumpkins with wildlife in mind.
Our community has a lovely tradition of displaying Halloween pumpkins along local roads after the holiday.
Unfortunately, the delicious scent of pumpkins is too tempting to local wildlife. It's important not to attract wildlife into neighbourhoods, for their safety and ours.
This year, bring your pumpkin to the PUMPKIN SMASH!

How will you smash it?
First, get a family photo with your Halloween jack-o-lantern before you say goodbye. Then... it's time to smash it!
- Bowl it into the Blower: roll your pumpkin down the hill at city hall and see if you can get it into the snowblower to be blown to smithereens!
- Blast it with the Firehose: man the fire hose and blast your pumpkin into the bin
- Feed it to the crusher: watch your pumpkin get crushed by heavy duty equipment
And please bring a donation for the Goldstream Food Bank if you are able to help us stuff the bus for neighbours in need!
