Guernsey Waste has shared some spook-tacular recipes to make sure no pumpkins go to waste after Halloween.
The States body says a “scary amount of waste” is produced over the spooky season and are calling on islanders to reduce waste by reusing the flesh and seeds to create comforting dishes.
Waste Minimisation & Sustainability Officer Douglas Button said the best and tastiest parts of pumpkins are often thrown away.
“Through a few small steps, people can have fun at Halloween while limiting any negative impacts on the environment. It’s all about trying to reduce, reuse and recycle as much as we can,” he said.
He also called on the community to be mindful of single use plastics and to save decorations for reuse in future years.
