for more than 1000 areas of woodland across the uk, and every halloween they have to collect and dispose of the pumpkins left by people who think they re doing a good thing for the environment. when pumpkins are dumped into the woods and they re left on the ground, they can actually, when they break down, it affects the make up of the soil, which then has a knock on effect on fungi and plants in the woodland. we don t let it get to that stage as the woodland trust. we have site managers on site that will come along and clean up these pumpkins. but as a charity doing this, it takes time and it takes money, which could be better used for our work in restoring ancient woodland, planting new woodland. wildlife and conservation charities are now urging people to recycle their pumpkins at home from soup to bird feeders instead of leaving them on the ground to rot
