So it turns out that it’s not just what’s inside the shell that counts. After some research it appears that shells make for excellent plant food, along with wee, bone meal and compost. Eggs are something most have in the house, fry-ups, baking we go through them. Most unhesitatingly chuck the shells away without a second thought. No more!

They absolutely stink when they are ground; lets hope the plants appreciate it.
