Pumpkins for Pigs - Drop Off

Event: Pumpkins for Pigs – Community Drop-Off Day at the Homestead

📅 Saturday, December 6th

📍 Gentry Homestead, McDonald, TN

Join us at Gentry Homestead for a fun and sustainable community tradition! At the end of pumpkin season, instead of throwing them away, bring your pumpkins to the farm where they’ll be put to good use feeding our pigs. Pumpkins are not only a seasonal favorite treat, but they also act as a natural dewormer and provide great nutritional benefits for the animals.

✨ What to Expect:

• Drop off your pumpkins (please no Sharpie, paint, or fully rotted pumpkins)
• Take a hayride back to the pig pastures
• Feed and pet the pigs 🐖
• Enjoy the cozy farm atmosphere and connect with your local community

This is a free, family-friendly event that helps reduce landfill waste while giving back to the farm animals that feed our community. Whether you bring one pumpkin or a truckload, every donation makes a difference.

💛 We can’t wait to welcome you to the farm and share this fun, seasonal experience!
