"Save those coffee grounds" or "How to 'Green' your coffee."

Believe it or not, your used coffee grounds can be recycled and used as mulch for your garden. Here is a direct quote: "Worms like coffee grounds, so this encourages the worms into activity thus aerating the soil and providing oxygen to plant roots and incorporating nutrients into the soil." Acid-loving plants, such as lemon trees and strawberry & blueberry plants need the acid to grow. So instead of throwing those coffee grounds out, reuse them!

Can one use Organo Gold coffee grounds as mulch? Absolutely! A business partner of mine decided to use her Organo Gold Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee grounds in her garden to see what would become of her Serrano peppers. Not only did the peppers grow, but they grew quickly. Here is a picture:

If you've tried using your Organo Gold coffee or tea as mulch, please feel free to leave a comment or pictures and let me know how it went!

As always, you can purchase coffee, tea, and many other products from my online store at Cafe Afrodite.
