Want to improve your garden without spending a dime? Stop by your local Starbucks, where most participate in the Grounds for Your Garden program, which gives away used coffee grounds to customers at no cost!
What a cool way to reduce waste while adding valuable organic matter to your garden!

Most coffee grounds are placed in bags like this near the front door so you can just grab and go. If you don’t see any, be sure to ask. Hip Sidekick, Paige, did and got a whole bonus bag to go!
Did you know? Coffee grounds are rich in nitrogen and help feed microorganisms that break down organic material, resulting in nutrient-rich compost for your plants. 🌱
Next time you’re picking up your favorite Starbucks drink, don’t forget to check for a free bag of coffee grounds. Your garden and the environment will thank you!
