I know that the county and city provide this material to those who want it for free or low cost.

I'm passing the word about Starbucks and their coffee grounds to a couple of young relatives who want to raise earthworms for bait and gardens. These great nephews want to be big time worm raisers. I think there is a local Starbucks in their area.

My sons, before they graduated to flies and artificial lures would buy a couple of dozen worms, put them in an area and throw our coffee grounds on the top of the soil and cover it with damp newspapers. In a few months they had all the worms they needed.

Last time I was in the local Starbucks, they had a basket full of two-pound bags of grounds. I snagged one for my organic-gardener neighbor. Made my work truck smell great for the rest of the week :)
