Go chuck a pumpkin
    Chuck your pumpkins at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden’s fourth annual Pumpkin Chuckin’ event Saturday, Nov. 1, from noon to 3 p.m. Spend a fall Saturday afternoon with great food from The Haven food truck, beverages, music from Star 107.5 and, of course, chuckin’ pumpkins.
    It is free to Garden members or $5 gets you two chucks. This year’s biggest hit promises to be the splatter wall where children and adults alike can catapult their pumpkins into a 10-foot wall. A second, larger catapult is being added this year to heighten the fun for those oversized jack o’ lanterns. You can also build your own catapult … just have it at the Garden by 11 a.m. that morning for a safety inspection.
    Leftover pumpkins will be composted for next year’s gardens. Participants are encouraged to bring their own pumpkins, although some small pumpkins will be available to chuck.
