The Town Dumped Their Rotting Pumpkins on Her Farm — She Built a Six-Figure Business
The Town Dumped Their Rotting Pumpkins on Her Farm — She Built a Six-Figure Business When the town of Cob Hollow needed a place to dump their unsold Halloween stock, 26-year-old farmer Sadie Marsh offered to take it to feed her hogs. But as the "Pumpkin Graveyard" behind her barn grew to a 12-foot-high rotting mountain, a disgruntled rival hauler filed a complaint. Faced with a county citation and a strict 30-day deadline to clear the mess, Sadie's farm was on the brink of disaster. That is, until she remembered Greta, an 81-year-old neighbor who held the secret to turning the most worthless part of the pumpkin into pure gold. This is the incredible story of how one young woman turned a town's rotting garbage into a highly-prized, six-figure culinary business.
