Welcome to the 2024 Donation Season
Happy Fall Solstice — can you believe pumpkin season is here?! We are excited to continue our mission of reducing food waste in communities across North America for our 8th season. Thanks to your support, 800 tons of pumpkins and related foods were diverted from landfills, which prevented over 334 tons of carbon dioxide. Let’s keep the momentum going!
A New Website for the 2024 Season
We’re thrilled to unveil our newly redesigned website. It’s now easier to navigate and packed with resources to help us fight food waste together.
Your New Profile for 2024
Action is required by Sept 30 to remain on the donation list.
New for 2024, every Donation Site — that’s YOU — now has your own profile that enables you to update your Accepted Items and drop off instructions, the programs you participate in, let donors know when you are Stuffed for the season, and more.
An email has been sent to you from Register@PumpkinsForPigs.org with your personal ID and all the details to review and update your current information. Step-by-step instructions can also be found in our renewal guide.
Need help? If you have not received the email, have questions, or need help, please email us at Register@PumpkinsForPigs.org.
Update your listing by the Sept 30 deadline to be entered into a drawing for a gift certificate!

Buy a Shirt to Support Us
You can support us this season by purchasing a PFP-branded short-sleeve, long-sleeve, crew sweatshirt, or hoodie sweatshirt sizes S-XXXL.
But don’t wait — all orders must be in by September 26, 2024. You will receive it in mid-October, just in time for donation season.
100% of the proceeds from your purchase directly fund our mission to reduce food waste. Your support helps cover essential costs like advertising, signage, truck rentals, delivery expenses, volunteer refreshments, and more. By buying and proudly wearing PFP gear, you’re not just showing your support—you’re helping to make a tangible impact in our communities. Wear your PFP gear to spread the word and help us continue our vital work to reduce food waste.
LAwn Signs
We are actively looking for a vendor that can ship lawn signs. It shows your support, encourages donations to your location, and helps offset some of our costs.
These 2-sided signs will be printed and shipped to you.
Complete this PFP Sign Interest form by September 20, 2024, so we can organize manufacturing, shipping, and payment page.
