Ha! We recycle all the kitchen vegetable waste in my compost heap! About a quart a day! Free nitrogen that helps the pile break down.
You can pulverize egg shells in a blender and reduce them to calcium with white vinegar 1 part egg shell to 2 parts vinegar)or just crumble them and spread them where snails are! (Don’t like them apparently—sharp edges.)
Of course, the more you garden, the less you have to recycle. We have not done any canning lately, but mason jars are glass you do not normally recycle which results in cans you do not have to buy!
You know it, Pete! :)
