Feed Pigs Not Bears!
The annual Pumpkin Drop-off will take place on the Friday and Saturday after Halloween at the La Plata County Fairgrounds in Durango and Eagle Park in Bayfield.
Residents can drop off jack-o-lanterns and other festive fruits Noon to 6 PM on November 1st or 9 AM to 2 PM on November 2nd at either location.
