Geneva city and town residents can compost leftover pumpkins and other natural fall decorations at the Resource Recovery Park on Doran Avenue through November.
The pumpkin collection notice lists drop-off hours on Thursdays and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to noon and 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. The site will be closed Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26.
Accepted materials include pumpkins, hay, corn stalks and food waste. Residents should remove candles and decorations before dropping items off. Wax-coated pumpkins are not accepted.
The collection gives residents a way to turn fall decorations into compost rather than put them in the trash. Both city and town residents are welcome, according to the notice.
The city’s Resource Recovery Park information page has details about residential access, recycling stickers and other services at the facility.
