The birds at Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC really appreciate all the pumpkins that people have donated. You can bring whole or cut pumpkins any time and leave them at the barn or else throw them over to the animals by the barn. Then you can see the sheep, goats, pigs and donkeys gobble them up. Farmer Mary likes to put some inside the fence where mostly birds and ducks roam and then watch how they eventually get eaten. The white pumpkin here was very popular and will soon be totally gone. Watch our great short video of the turkeys eating these pumpkins at winterpast_farm on Instagram and at Winterpast Farm on FB.
