Grounds From The Garbage
6 months ago
The Starbucks Grounds For Your Garden program offers the used coffee and espresso grounds for gardeners as a top dressing or an addition to their compost. It’s high in nitrogen and since the pieces are small breaks down quickly.
Today was a major haul of coffee grounds – nearly 20 pounds. It seems some of the people who regularly take the grounds have not been doing so lately so most of these would have found their way to a landfill, hundreds of miles away.
Some of today’s grounds found themselves scattered around plants but much of it was tossed into the compost. Small actions for sure, but affect on tomorrow is much larger in so many ways.
