Hmm, I have never heard of doing this before, but I am going to give it a try, as our lawn is looking very bad at the moment, and with summer coming it will get worse if I dont start looking after it. Will let you know what results I get. Thanks for the tip.

Thanks for letting us know about the Star Bucks coffee grinds project. There is a new Second Cup store on Montreal Rd. @ Bathgate. I will ask them. -Grreeat

Paul – if you dry them out in the sun for a few days, they will store for about 6 months without any sign of reduced effectiveness. If you want to learn more about using coffee grounds for gardening (in addition to this excellent article), check out my site http://groundtoground.org

you can purchase oyster mushroom spawn from Fungi Perfect and grow it on used coffee grinds. I grew some last winter using the coffee grinds I schlepped home on the bus from work and the mushrooms were delicious!

dear readers, I have a question. Can you put the coffee grinds on the lawn throughout the year, even in the winter? Can you conserve them throughout the winter without them losing any of their compost value? Thanks, Paul
