The employees at Starbucks brighten up when they see me pull up. I take the grounds in both the espresso bags and the drip coffee grounds bags. (I'm not sure if I was clear there. They fill two large plastic bags every day-one is from the espresso; the other is from the drip coffee.) I take both bags off their hands so they don't have to bag them up in those bulk bags nor do they have to drag them to the dumpsters. I actually save them work. On a good day I can walk off with 30+ lbs from one store. There are three SBs in my town.
My worms have all night wild worm parties when I dump that many grounds into a bin. The only thing better for my worms is llama manure IMHO.
