Presented by REA. Join us for a smashing good time at Zionsville Parks and Recreation’s pumpkin smash & compost bash, SMASHIN’ PUMPKINS! Enjoy delicious food from local food trucks, and engaging compost education sessions. Watch in awe as the Zionsville Fire Department drops a pumpkin from their fire engine's ladder and participate in pumpkin repurposing demos. Smash your own pumpkins or purchase one on-site while supplies last, with proceeds supporting Parks Events.

Eco-Friendly Pumpkin Decorating Tips:

  • Go for a classic jack-o-lantern face but use battery-operated lights and candles – you can find ones that flash or have color-changing settings
  • Nail or drill holes into your pumpkin to create a design or pattern and use a battery-operated candle inside
  • Decorate using leaves and flowers using DIY biodegradable glue and a foam brush
  • Use bio-degradable paints or stickers
  • Etched Pumpkins are a fun way to put a design on your pumpkin without paint
  • Use a headband, wig, hat or mask to dress up your pumpkin
  • Wrap your pumpkin in bandage to give it a MUMMY costume
  • Carve out your pumpkin and place a pot of your favorite flowers or succulents inside
