Sustainable Students Association: Take Back Jack

Wednesday, Nov. 2 | 6-9 p.m.

Come help Minnesota State University Moorhead’s sustainability group (Sustainable Students Association) recycle/compost pumpkins around the community. We will be dividing up into groups and then going around the neighborhood and knocking on people’s doors to ask them permission to take their pumpkin(s) and recycle them. We will also be going around the outside of residence halls and collecting pumpkins there, too. Wear warm clothing and your MSUM gear!
