Coffee can help you garden.

That's right, not only does Moka Joe Coffee taste amazing, it can now help your garden flourish. I know what you're thinking, "Does caffeine act like miracle grow and energize my plants?" Well the truth is no. the caffeine is not what I am talking about.

Coffee will actually repeal garden pests. just mix some coffee grounds in with the soil around your plants and it will repeal ants, snails, slugs and even stray cats. Just take your used grounds from the morning pot of coffee and sprinkle them around the plants that need protecting. This is a great natural way to keep your plants healthy without using harmful chemicals.

Coffee can also be used as a fertilizer for most garden plants. Coffee grounds are full of nutrients that plants need to grow healthy and strong. There are several ways that you can use coffee to fertilize. The first way is to mix your used coffee grounds in with the soil before you water. the water helps break down the coffee grounds and makes it easy for plants to suck up that nutrients with the water. Another way is to dilute the remainder of your morning pot of coffee and use it to water your house plants. Either way you will be feeding you plants valuable nutrients, not spending any extra money and not using harmful or toxic chemicals. Sounds like a good idea to me

And remember, you can always get Moka Joe Coffee from you local North West QFC store. Moka Joe is always 100 % organic and fair trade.
