Egg shells in the garden.

Do you throw away your egg shells? Please don't! Did you know they are wonderful for the garden in so many ways! Crushed egg shells can add valuable nutrients to the soil - they add calcium to the soil which is often depleted by fast growing plants. You can add your coffee grounds to these crushed egg shells which will provide additional nitrogen to your soil - great for plants!
Slugs and snails don't like egg shells, so they can be used around your tomato and marigold plants.
Check out this site for some great uses for egg shells in your garden! Happy gardening xxx
